PENN STATE
VOLUME 9 NUMBER 16
FIVE MORE VICTORIES
A Result of Splendid Offensive and
Defensive Work, Lehigh and
Pitt Victories Are Greatest. Car
negie Tech and Westinghouse
Defeated by Large Scores.
The three basketball victories on
foreign floors in Western Pennsyl
vania coupled with two more at
home give Penn State prestige over
its Western and Central Pennsyl
vania rivals. On foreign territory
Penn State scored 110 points to its
rivals' 55, while on the home floor
the locals rolled up 72 points
against the visitors' 31, making a
total of 182 points for Penn State
as compared with a total of 86 for
her opponents. Penn State was
too strong an attraction in the Pitts
burgh district and all the gymnas
iums were cfowded to the doors.
The Western trip included games
with the Westinghouse Club, Uni
versity of Pittsburgh, and Carnegie
Tech.
The Westinghouse club was the
first game on the recent trip and
the game is pictured
. by the Pitts
burgh papers as being teemed with
brilliant playing, the visitors elec
trifying the spectators by the great
est exhibition of passing and shoot
ing ever seen in the Westinghouse
club. The Pitt contest, staged in
Trees gymnasium situated on Pitt's
campus, was the hardest fought
battle of the trip. Skillfully ex
ecuted combination plays resulted
in our varsity overtaking the two
point lead which Pitt gained early
in the game. At the final blast of
the whistle, Penn State had the
larger end, of_a 30 to 25 eltre. The
Tech damJ was played in the Tech
I - add House and was easily won by
om varsity five, the final score be
ing 34 to 14. The Plaid team play
ed hard but failed to check the
fast Blue and White tossers.
On the home floor Lehigh Uni
versity and Carnegie Tech. were
vanquished. Lehigh, crippled by
the absence of Captain Muthart, ex
perienced its initial defeat of the
season. Previous to this game the
Brown and White team had defeat
ed Albright, Moravian college,
Loyola, Lebanon, Muhlenberg, Cor
nell and Penn. Lehigh was a lead
ing attraction and offered to the
spectators an intensely interesting
exciting game. Both teams ex
hibited their excellence in passing.
The game was marred only by
roughness. Score—Penn State 29.
Lehigh 15. The Carnegie Tech.
game was characterized by foul
shooting, twenty-one points being
scored by shots from the foul line.
The Blue and White quintet dis
played beautiful team work and ex
perienced no difficulty in downing
the Tech. five by the tremendous
score of 43 to 16.
The Penn State team's success is
due largely to Captain Hartz who is
playing good ball at the center
position. Binder and Park are the
strongest men offensively. Craig
has shown considerable ability at
both the forward and guard posi
tions. Mauthe is a "whale" of a
guard and opposing forwards have
much trouble in evading him. Hay
and Walton are other guards who
play the game "as it should be
played". Unger is making a strong
guard substitute.

TWO COACHES SIGNED
Hollenback Will Again Coach the
Eleven —Coach Manning Reports
for Baseball
Indoor baseball practice has be
gun "in earnest", and we have again
in charge of this varsity sport,
Coach Walter Manning, formcrly of
the New York Americans, who
played last year with
_AllenteNrr:
-The - success of Captain Eberlein's
nine of last year was to a great ex
tent due to Manning's coaching,
and with this year's abundant ma
terial another successful season
may be predicted.
The final agreement has recently
been made by which next year's
varsity eleven will be in charge of
"Bill" Hollenback; and Penn State
football enthusiasts are anticipating
a repetition of our three previous
seasons in his charge without de
feat. The position of assistant and
line coach has been offered to 1
"Dick" Harlow 'l2, but as yet no
definite agreement has been made.
Alt Heidelberg
Alt Heidelberg, one of the plays
in which Richard Mansfield starred,
will be presented in German on
February 11 by the Deutscher
Verein.
It includes a cast of fifty and will
portray in detail the student life of
Old Heidelberg, one of the typical
universities of Germany, and cen
ters around the life of a German
Prince, Karl Heinrich. The latter
is a boy of nineteen, who has seen
nothing of the outer world, and is
thrown suddenly into the gay whirl
of student life, where he meets wo
men for the first time and spends
his nights in youthful revelry to the
God of Wine. In the midst of his
pleasures, he is suddenly recalled
to occupy the throne of his uncle,
who has been stricken with paraly
sis.
The play is merely an educational
venture and the price of admission,
25 cents, is merely nominal. The
sale of tickets will be announced
later.
The Lincoln Birthday address at
Delaware State College will be de
livered by President Sparks on
Tuesday evening.

Basketball Saturday
Captain Hartz's fast team plays
the team from Allegheny College
next Saturday night for the first
game in the new semester, and the
game promises to be a Food one, as
the "Methodists" generally turn out
a good team and this year is no
exception the squad are ail in
prime condition and hope to finish
up the season with a clean record.
Since basketball has become a
minor sport, the team must be self
supporting in a financial way. This
means that at least a fair percentage
of students must turn out to the
games, if the team is to make ends
meet. The price has been set as
low a , ' possible so it is within the
means of everybody to attend, so
let us have at least 1000 men out
tor this next game '1 o avoid con
fusion at the door, either get your
ticket at the Toggery Shop or bring
the exact change.

PRICE FIVE CENTS
GLEE CLUB CONCERT
Expenses Must be Raised to De-
fray Cost of Santa Fe Trip -- A
Good Program Arranged for
Concert
Penn State men will soon have an
excellent opportunity to show their
college spit tt individually. Out
glee club will take the Santa Fe
trip to the coast Easter, the trip
proper beginning and ending at
Chicago. The expense of the
Journey to and from that city must
be paid by the club itself, and for
this purpose about $lOOO will be
necessary. Some contributions
have been received from friends of
the college; but it is hoped that a
great deal mote can be raised from
the proceeds of a concert, which
will be given in the Auditorium on
Friday evening, February 14.
The trip is being made not only
for the pleasure of those men con
' cerned, but to take the name of
Penn State across the continent.
We are honored, in that we are the
first of the eastern colleges to
secure this trip. Every college
man should look upon this as a
Penn Statc affair, and respond ac
cordingly. Tickets is ay be secured
at the Toggery Shop and from club
members.
The program of the conceit
is somewhat similar to that which
will be presented on the trip, and
will include numbers by the club
and quartette, solos, and readings,
of both serious and humorous
character.

Y. M. C. A. Entertainment
Last Satuiday evening the Cair—t
bridge Players gave a performabce,
under the auspices of the Y. M. C.
A. The program consisted of a
variety of recitations humorous
monologues, two sketches, and
several vocal numbers. The com
pany excelled principally in recita
tive work, which was manifested in
the monologues and sketches. Mr.
Coffer and Miss M. Miller clearly
proved themselves to be the most
attractive to the audience. Their
interpretations wcre in some in
stances so very comical, that it took
some time for the laughter and
amusement to subside. As a
whole the performance proved to
be very pleasing.
