get State's forces into shape for the Indian game. Of last year's ends, Captain Burns and Campbell have gradu ated, while Maxwell did not return to school and Welsh is unable to play on account of lack of time. As a result this season's eleven will be practically a new one from end to end. The candidates who have shown the best form at end so far are Messner, Ayers, Hipple, Dillon, Berry, and Caruthers. These men are all inexperienced and rather light, and the selection of end ma terial is still far from definite. Vorhis, Hermann and Ballow are out for quarterback, with a possi bility of changing Vorhis to end. The other backfield men are Cap tain McCleary, Hirshman, Barnett, Harrington, Barr, Nagle, Brown, McWhinney and Spoerle at half back, and Smith, Mosser and For sythe at fullback. Nothing definite has been agreed upon but the back field which looks best is Vorhis, Hermann or Ballow at quarter. Mc- Cleary at right half, Smith at full and Hirshman at left half. This combination is undoubtedly a strong one, but what it can do behind an in• experienced line remains to be seen. Manager Postlethwaite's schedule is an unusually stiff one, including, as it does, games with the Indians, Cornell, Penn, Navy, Bucknell and W. U. P. The co-operation and THE STATE COLLEGIAN assistance of every student is there fore necessary for a successful season The Bellefonte Academy Game. The football season at Penn State was opened last Saturday, when the strong Bellefonte Academy eleven won from the varsity 6 to 5. It was a regularly scheduled game and the visitors made a new record—that of a prep school winning from a State team on Beaver Field. In justice to our men it should be said that the varsity backfield and most of the varsity men did not get into the game u 161 the last few minutes of play and some of them not even then. The Bellefonte ends played ag gressive, sure football and much of the credit for the victory is due to them. The visitors scored about the middle of the second half when Dillon secured the ball on a State fumble and crossed the white and blue lice after a pretty forty yard run. Elsey kicked the goal which which won the game, as Barr had already made an inaccurate attempt to put the oval between the posts after Harrington had- scored on a line play about the end of the first half. Grove City college is to be played Saturday afternoon on Beaver Field and the Penn State eleven goes to Wilkes Barre a week later to play the Indians. Manager Postleth waite has arranged for a special train to carry the students to Wilkes- Barre and it is confidently ' believed that a strong delegation will be ready to go. The Bellefonte score.

The large room at the right of the main entrance of the Carnegie library is being fitted up and within a few weeks the Alumni association will have fine new headquarters. While some provision has always been made for this purpose, alumni have never had a permanent room which was distinctively their own. Furniture is being bought, and the room will be comfortably equipped. It is intended that the graduate manager of athletics shall also use the room as his headquarters, and the trophies which are now in the Track House will ultimately be placed in the new room.
