PENN STATE VOLUME 9 NUMBER 30 INDIANS DEFEATED Rain Prevents Fast Track—Armsby Smashes His Previous Record in High Jump With a muddy field and a driz zling rain falling State outclassed the Indian track team in a dual meet at Carlisle, Saturday. The score was 75 to 37. The strength of our team was well demonstrated in this meet as well as the efficient work done by our coach, for Carlisle is, by most authorities, considered to have the second strongest collegiate track team in Pennsylvania. Our men proved superiors in every department, taking ten firsts out of the possible fourteen. The Indians took the broad jump, low hurdles, mile run and tied in the pole vault with Maybee. Piner again was the mainstay in the dashes winning the 220, quarter mile, and taking sec ond in the 100 yard dash. White, in this event, won with a mark of 10 seconds flat. Hammitt took a first and second in the hurdles winning the high hurdlest-in 16 seconds on a wet track. Squirrel of Carlisle, how ever, outran him in the longer run winning in 26 seconds. The feature of the meet was the performance of Armsby in the high jump who cleared with a good mar gin the bar at 6 feet 1 inch. Arms by's work thus far bids fair to stamp' lan as oneof•theemost valu able track mon-tbatZ'everOpresent .:ged=leentiate Leyden and KeYser repeated thieir-performan& of last week in winning the half mile and two mile, respectively.

WESTERN DELEGATION Penn State to be Represented at Wisconsin President E. E. Sparks, Dean J. P. Jackson, and Prof. M. S. Mc- Dowell left on Monday for Madi son, Wis., where, with numerous other delegations from this state they are making a study of the university extension system at the University of Wisconsin. Other visitors at Madison are Mayor Blankenburg, of Philadelphia; Provost Smith, of Penn; besides many others from educational in stitutions and cities of all parts of the state—notably a Philadelphia delegation of over one hundred. The trip to Wisconsin has been planned by the City Club of Phila delphia, and the large number of delegates is evidence that the officers of a city government and of state educational institutions are fully appreciative of an opportunity to study the highly developed efficiency of a western institution. Dean Louis E. Reber, of the Wisconsin University Extension Division, who, by the way, was formerly an instructor at Penn State, has brought about a con dition such that in Wisconsin, bet ter than anywhere else, the edu cational institution of the people and the government of the people are securely associated for the public welfare. It is this "Wiscon sin idea" which the Pennsylvania delegation is so anxious to study. VARSITY TENNIS A Victory and a Defeat on Trip Penn Too Stri:- . - - - On last weeks trip the varsity tennis team met Penn and Swarth more—against the former, all the matches were lost by Penn State except one—singles which Nevin 'l6 won. At Swarthmore the per formance of the team was more successful, and three of the four singles played were won, while rain prevented the finish of the doubles. The men did not meet the Haverford team on account of rain. The team leaves tomorrow for its western Pennsylvania trip, meeting Carnegie Tech, Pitt and Westing house Club. The men who will take the trip will probably be those who were on the team at Penn, namely, Harris 'l3, Hay 'l5, Jones 'l5, Nevin 'l6 and Smedley 'l6. Interclass Baseball The sophomore team broke its losing streak Saturday when it defeated the freshmen in an eight inning game. At the end of the seventh inning the score stood tied with two runs apiece, and an extra inning decided the game in favor of the sophs.

STATE COL VARSITY BASEBALL Carnegie Tech Downed With Leib art Strong in Pinches Wardwell Pitches Good Gallo Against Notre Dame, But Support is Poor. Penn State downekl Carnegie Tech in one of the mo& interesting games of the year. Liebert and Hoerr had a pitching dim.] in which the latter allowed less ;hits but the former fared better be4use of his steadiness and excellent support. The local twirler had fine control and not a visitor received free pass age to the first station,'4while three of the visitors hits were of the scratch variety. Three iat the locals hits figured in the run 'getting and two of these were extra-base drives. The Penn State infield played the best game seen on Newißeaver this year. Hittner led in the defense, handling ten chances cleanly. Kel ler and McKibben broke up rallies by getting away with some hard chances while Mason covered the initial sack faultlessly. Shorty Mil ler also came in for his usual bril liant play, when he captured Moore head's fly in the seventh just back of second base. Penn State scored first in the second and won the game then and there. Hittner struck out but Kel ler hit to center for three bases. Moorehead's low throw home put Keller over and McKibben went all the way to third on: the error. Vogt immediately shot a single to right scoring McKibben, but was caught 'off — first -- blr a nifiefr"aild. Leibert went the Gearhart-Moore head route for the final out. The visitors tallied their lone run in the third. Gearhart and Brien played well for Tech. Summary: Left on base—Penn State 8, Carnegie Tech 5. Two base hit—Henderson. Three base hit—Keller. Stolen bases—Craw fore, Hoerr. Strike outs—By Leib ert 7; Hoerr 5. Bases on balls—Off Liebert, none; Hoerr 5. Wild pitch—Hoerr. Time of game-1 hr. 40 min. Penn State lost a slow game Monday afternoon to Notre Dame. Wardwell deserved a victory, but his team mates gave him ragged support both on the defense and offense. The visitors defense also showed signs of crumbling but Kel ly either came to the rescue per sonally or the fatal error remained uncommitted when Blue and White men were on the paths. On the offense, however, they never falter ed, but took all kinds of chances and generally got away with them. Twelve men left on base tells the Blue and White defeat from an offensive standpoint. The neces rary hit was not forthcoming when there was a chance to win. A Blue and White rally in the sixth produced two runs. Miller hit and stole, and hits by Hender son and Mason with an error in centre field and a passed ball put two runs over. Regan opened the visitor seventh . with a two base hit and completed the circuit on errors by Crawford and McKibben. There was much gloom in the Blue and White camp after the seventh: for Penn State here lost a golden opportunity to win. Mc- Kibben singled, Vogt hit for two bases, Wardwell struck out. Mil ler hoisted a high fly over fiirst and stood still while Newing, Kelley, Farrel, and Mills gathered round to COLLEGIAN. Y 21, 1913 watch the ball drop untouched in safe territory. Of course Shorty was out. Crawford walkcd but Henderson struck out. In the ninth a momentary rally produced a run. Crawford hit for three bases, Henderson singled. Mills caught Mason's long fly to right and Lathrop, who replaced Regan in left when the latter sprained his ankle at third base in the seventh, took care of Hittner. Keller forced Henderson and the game was over. Hittner and Vogt played well for the Blue and White, the latter especially giving Wardwell the best of support behind the plate. Summary: Earned runs—Penn State 2, Notre Dame T. Left on bases—Penn State 12, Notre Dame 7. Two base hits—Vogt, Mills 2, Regan. Three base hit—Crawford. Hit by pitcher—Keller, McKibben.

PRICE FIVE CENTS LACROSSE WITH PENN State Plays Red and Blue on Beav er Field Saturday. Good Game Assured. Necessity of Large At- tendance On Saturday afternoon at one thirty, New Beaver Field will be the scene of Penn State's initial lacrosse match. Not only will the students and town people be en abled to see the first intercollegiate lacrosse game ever played in ;tate College, but they will at the same time witness the first appearance of a University of Pennsylvania team on Beaver Field. The management has been fortunate in securing our greatest rival for our opponents on Saturday afternoon, and they are desirous of having a big crowd out to welcome Penn, and to "root" for our own team. This game will be our first test. The team has slowly developed, and has been compelled to contend with a great many obstacles. Lack of a proper field for practice; the smallness of the squad; the fact that most of the men were green, and that no coach was available; all these factors have made progress slow. The men have worken hard; they have expended their own money in equipping themselves, with no surety that they would even get in a game. They get no insignia, they get no trips, they are all out working for the sake of the sport and for the College. For the underclassmen the probability of their "making good".624teatn otfuture years, the feeling that the" sport is sure to succeed, urges them on. The men want every student to come out on Saturday, and see if lacrosse is not worthy of support. Let all be there to decide whether lacrosse is with us to stay, or not. To bring a team of fourteen men from Philadelphia requires a liberal guarantee, and that guarantee must must be raised out of the receipts of the game. The team must have the support of the student body in order to go through the season to a successful termination. Tickets are but twenty-five cents each, and will be on sale at the Athletic Store on Thursday and Friday evenings, 6:30-8:30 p. m. You will get a real game for your quarter-dollar— lacrosse is not a gentle sport. Pennsylvania has played several games this season, while State has played none. Pennsylvania has the service of a professional coach, we have none. Therefore, it will be with a handicap that our team goes on the field on Saturday. Perhaps we can overcome if, but the team will want the student body behind them when they face off on Beaver Field. Come out and give them the backing they deserve. The team which will represent State on Saturday will be picked from the following squad of men: Mendenhall, Ehrhart, Reel, At kinson, Harrison, Meixner, Har rower (1913); Peters, Fuller, Gal lager, Johnson, Savery (1914); Mehard, Smith, Bear, Cuno,Kinney, Munhall, Burns, Farley (1915); Olmstead, Fisher, Hewett, (1916); Wilson and Gill (Specials). Give varsity la crosse a rousing reception at Penn State by attend ing the Penn game Saturday, and at the same time see a U. of P. team on New Beaver Field for the first time.
