A papermaking machine having a press section in-cluding a pair of cooperating press rolls. A papermaker'sfelt is mounted for endless travel and carries a wet paperweb through the hip between the press rolls. After passingthrough the press rolls, the felt carries the paper web acrossa substantial span of distance to the dryer section, therebypreventing sagging and possible breakage of the web as theweb travels across this span.
