LAFAYETTE DEFEATED
IN SECOND HALF
Entry of Lamb in Last Half Turns
Tide of Game—Bot'i Teams Bad
ly Cri-pled—Tobin’s Absence
Keenly Felt. Clark and Kratt
Star— Ewi >g Returns to Game.
Playing an open game, Penn State
kept up its brilliant record of the
year, when, after failing to score in
the first half on Saturday at Eas
ton, they piled up a total of 17
points on the Lafayette team which
tied Penn earlier in the season.
The tackle and end play of both
teams were of a high order. Kratt
practically played a game of All-
American calibe' while Maxfield
was nearly as good. Barron at end
found very little trouble in boxing
Kelly, the Lafayette tackle. His
ability in this respect made possible
the numerous runs around that end>
While Kratt played a fine line
game, he was also a star at line
plunging. In the first half he car
ried the ball 60 yards by a series of
line plunges to the Lafayette 20
yard line where a fumble lost a
probable touchdown. Ewirg
seemed to be the only man on eith
er team capable of circling the ends
for long gains. The punting dual
between Kelly and Clark was keen
ly contested with honors even.
Weldon, Lurch and Maxfield were
easily the best players for Lafay
ette.
While State could not score in
the first half, her goal line was at
no time seriously ex
cept when” Lafay
ette forward pass on our 25 yard
line.
SAWTELLE, Li-high End
In tbe third period Lamb re
placed Fleck. This charge seemed
to work wonders in the State fight
ing spirit He kicked off to Lafay
ette’s 23 yard, line and the ball was
returned 17 yards. After three un
successful a’tempts to pierce the
State line, Kelly kicked to State’s
thirty-yard line. Morris made sev
en yards; then a forward pass, James
to Yerger, carried the ball to Lafay
ette’s 46 yard line. Clark gained
5 through the line and another for
ward pass, James to Barron carried
the ball to the 32 yard line. Welty
added 5 more yards and then
“Levi” made an attempt at a field
goal which missed by a scant 2
feet. Given the ball on their 20
yard line, Kelly immediately kicked
to James on our 43 yard line and a
little later Lafayette recovered a
fumble on State’s 47 yard line.
They made 7 yards on three trys
and then lost the ball on downs.
A successful forward from James
took the ball to Lafayette’s 48 yard
line.
Clark got away for 22 yards and
Yerger made 3 more. James then
heaved a forward which Morris
carried for 24 . yards to Lafayette’s
4 yard line. Three attempts by
Clark, Kratt, and Yeiger put the
ball on the one yard line. Lafay
ette was penalized 6 inches for side
line coachirgjand Kratt went the

remaining 6 inches for a touch,

Lamb kicked off to Lafayette.
Tbe ball went over the goal line
and was put in play on the 20 yard
line. The third period ended with
the ball in State’s possession on
Lafayette’s 40 yard line.
After an interchange of punts in
the final period, Kelly kicked to
James on State's 28 yard line.
Welty made one and James added
7 yards on a kick formation. Ewing
was substituted for James, and, on
a fake kick, made 50 yards by
some wonderful open field running
wnich brought the ball to the 15 yard
line. From there Clark made 5, but
State was penalized 5 yards for off
side. Clark was given the ball and on
three plurges took the ball first to
the eight, then to the one yard
line and'fmally over'for the second
touchdown. Lamb kicked the
goal.
Lamb again kicked off and again
the ball went over the goal line.
Kelly kicked to Welty on Lafay
ette’s 45 yard line. From there
Lamb tried a field goal which went
to the side. After Kelly had
kicked to State’s 20 yard line and
Yerger had made 7 yards, Ewing,
who had replaced Clark at full,
made a spectacular 55 pard run to
Lafayette’s 15 yard line, where
Lamb tried and made a field goal.
From this point on practically the
whole scrub team was substituted
before the end of the game.
Barron put up a wonderful game
at right end and Clark consistently
showed his ability to make gain*
when they were needed. A sum
mary will give some idea of the
relative strength of the teams;
Lafayette made 2 first downs the
first half and State made 2; Lafay
ette did not make a single first
down tbe second half while State
made 11. In the whole game State
made 7 successful forward passes
for 88 yards, Lafayette made none.
State was penalized 4 times for an
aggregate of 65 yards; Lafayette
twice for a total of 20 yards.

INDIANA DEFEATS

feat- Game Hard Fought. Team
Badly Battered. Bellefonte Here
Saturday.
The score 16-0 b>- which the
Indiana Normal defeated 1918 at
Indiana Saturday does not indicate
how closely the two teams were
matched. Out-weighed the fresh
man, aside from fumbl’ng, outplay
ed Indiana in every department of
the game. Eighteen first downs
were registered by 1918 to seven
scored by Indiana.
Numerous times the freshman
marched down the field only to lose
the ball on a fumble When a score
seemed imminent. Eaton was the
offensive star for the freshman al
though a 45 yard run by Cubbage
with his line plunging should be
mentioned. Lamadie was the de
fensive star. For Indiana, White
and Springer were the individual
stars. Klinger and Snciderman.
received sprained ankles while Sea
mon and Lamadie were both
bruised.
The touchdowns scored by
Indiana were the results of what
appeared to be incomplete forward
passes. While the game was full
of arguing with officials, the team
is loud in its praise of its treatment
at the hands of the Indiana manage
ment and student body^

Lehigh Threatens Trouble
After 13 years State will resume
football relations with Lehigh next
Saturday at South Bethlehem. In
1901 State defeated Lehigh 39-0,
but no such score seems probable
this year. When the season started
faculty rulings seemed to have ruin
ed their chances but these restric
tions have been removed and the
team's strength can be fully realized
by their easy triumph over Muhlen
berg. In their game with Yale
fumbling was the only thing that
beat them. Every Yale score came
from a Lehigh fumble. Their team
is in good shape and our game has
been greatly advertised. The man
agement expects a crowd of 10,000
at the contest.
The effect of the mass meeting
before the Harvard game was ful
ly evidenced by the score and
another such meeting is all that will
be needed for a State victory. The
meeting will probably be held
Wednesday and the team will leave
Thursday at 5:45 p. m. The
coaches urge every man to be out
both We lnesday and Thursday
evenings.

.Debating. Ouestion Chos.en.,
The question for the league de
bates will be; Resolved, that the
United States should abandon the
Monroe Doctrine.” All men who
desire to enter the competition for
tbe varsity debating team should
commence work at once as the trial
will be held in the very near future.
This year Penn States debates
Franklin and Marshall at home and
Dickinson at Carlisle. Tbe negative
team always remains at home while
the affirmative team takes the trip.
A plan is being worked up where
by the seniors who are interested
in debating will be sent throughout
the state to arouse greater interest
in the high schools. Interscholastic
league may be formed with prom
inent men as judges for the debates
and it is hoped that by this means
Penn State will be able to get bet
ter debating material. This plan
has succeeded admirably in Ohio
and while it may take some time to
work it up in this state, we may
feel assured that eventually it will
succeed. Professor Marshman wil
have charge of debating this year.
He is well know in the middle west
for his woik along for'isic lines
and we are indeed fortunn’-: in hav
ing his services as coach.
A competition is open ti the
artists of the college to sutnit
designs for the medals for varsity
debaters. All who have any ability
in drawirg are urged to submit
designs to Professor Marshman as
soon as poss ble.
Notice to Ag. Students.
The Penn State farmer is going
to give a $lO prize to the Agricul
tural student who secures the great
est number of subscriptions before
November 21. H. S. Kjellman
will give particulars to those who
address him at the Alpha Gamma
Rbo house.

PENN RUNNERS WIN
CROSS COUNTRY MEET
Humble Individual Winner Betters
Mark of Last Week. Well Bal-
anced Team Secret of Penn Suc
cess. Team in Training for In-
tercoUegiates at Yale
The Penn cross country team
duplicated the feat of the Penn
State 1912 team when they defeated
the varsity on Saturday over the
Penn State course by the score 22-
37. While Penn came here with a
victory over Dartmouth, Coach
Martin expected a closer race than
was shown on Saturday. The race
was late due to the push ball scrap
and it was 2:50 p. m., before Ray
Smith sent the runners on their
way.
The entire first part of the race
was a battle for leadership. The
first furlong has all the appearances
of a half mile race. Lieberman, of
Penn, took the lead and ran the
first mile in 5 minutes and 5
seconds. At the Co-op the men
were still bunched and the time
5 minutes, 34 2-5 seconds. On the
run up hill on Barnard street Hum
ble took the lead and the Penn
State runners moved up. This lead
did not change until Allen street
was reached when the Penn runners
challenged the varsity men and
passed them.
The race between Humble and
Colton was keen. They ran nearly
neck and neck to tbe Auditorium
when Humble took the lead and
finished 10 yards-in front of-the
