BUCKNELL AND STATE,
The Bucknell and State College foot
ball teams have completed final arrange
ments for the big game between these
old-time rivals at Lewisburg o
Saturday, Much interest is centered in
this game trom the fact that there is
much speculation as to who will be the
winners. State's team is made up of
| veterans and while their record this year
is somewhat better than Bucknell, the
latter's team has very few of last year's
men in the line-up, and consequently is
just beginning to show its ve
form
Bucknpell's one aim this year
feat State and to do it well It means
the stiffest fight ever witnessed on the
gridiron. For the last month the Buck
pell team has been in training for
all-important and spec:z. game. aod
