Seniors Defeat Sophomores.
Seniors administered the fast de
feat that the sophomores have re
ceived this yes i. The final score
which was 26-21, indicates how
close the game was, the' score be
ing tied several times. The sopho
mores have not played as well since
they lost Hartz, Vosberg and Posey,
there is a lack of team work and
pow shooting. The lineup that
they piesentecl at the beginning of
the season was almost unbeatable
but with the present team they will
have a hard time keening in first
place which they have held all yew.
Bowman, O'Neil and Rogers played
the best ganie.

1911 FOOTBALL CARD
Penn State Will Meet the Most
Prominent Colleges in the East on
Gi Aim Next Fall.
COI, NELL, NAVY AND GETTYSBURG
Familiar Teams Again Appear on
-Addition of Colgate a
Schedule
Big Attraction as a Home Game.
Villa Nova and Gettysburg Also
It is glad tidings to :us that Cor
nell, the Navy and Gettysburg have
been restored to their former places
on out football schedule, since all of
thqe colleges are worthy opponents
as shown by our past girdiron
old with their elevens. Graduate
manager Thomas 'O9, with the
aid of Football Manager, Orr
'l2, has indeed shown rare
judgment in making out the
card, for the hard games are preced
ed with easier ones and the sched
ule is a full nine-game affair.
Colgate will be met by a Penn
State eleven for the first time in
history, the New York state team,'
Gettysburg and Villa Nova being
the best home attractions. Prince
ton offered us Oct 28 at Princeton
but the date with Penn prevented
. - .;tir acceptance of this date; the
Princetonians were unwilling to meet
our eleven in New York City as
suggested by a large contingent of
alumuni, whose interests are being
well looked after by P. H. Thomas
, the.• position' of graduate manager
and alumuni secretary. - •
The Swarthmore faculty, after a
special petition from the students,
gave their management permission
to arrange a game for captian Very's
team for next autum but the open
dates would not "gibe" and un
fortunately we will not meet the
Quakers.
W. & J. would have played here
November 4:but this decision on
their part came too late just after all
our football contracts were signed,
Lehigh wished a game at South
Bethlehem and West Point wanted
to meet us up where they make the
"soclgers"; and it is hoped that
Swatthmore, Princeton and W. & J.
ran be given gridiron contests one
year hence with a possibility of
adding Lehigh and West Point, too.
Ohio State University and Mar
quette University wanted Thanks
giving Da'y dates but every under
giaduatc knows how unreasonable it
would be to try to get any more
satisfactory and agreeable arrange
ment than we now have with Pitt.
Lafayette is unwilling to meet us in
football while the Bucknell game,
was agreeably dropped by both
colleges.
The Cornell, Penn and Navy
g imes will give , our ambitious and
plucky pigskin artists every clyince
to gain football prestige in the East
and these games have been well
"lead up to". I-lead-coach_ Mc-
