MICHIGAN AGGIES ARRIVE WITH LARGE
CADET BAND FOR INTERSECTIONAL CLASH
Team Which Takes Notre Dame Date Have Many All-Western Stars
The Two Millers, at Left End and Quarterback, Interchange Posi
tions on Defense and Offense—Thomas Will be Able to Start Varsity
in Fair Physical Condition—Captain Tobin Will be on Sidelines.
Big Shakeup in Varsity Backfield Likely Ample Time Promised
Cadets to Dress For Game
The powerful Michigan Agricul
tural College football team left East
Lansing, Michigan, yesterday and,
travelling by way of Toledo, Pitts
burgh, Tyrone and Bellefonte, are
due to arrive at State College this
evening. Since this is their last
game a squad of 30 men, including
most of the deserving scrubs,
coaches and trainers, will make up
the party. According to recent
advicethe'famousLM.’A.; C., cadet
band and JIOO rooters will also
accompany"'the team. With two
cadet bands-on the field vicing for
honors the Pennsylvania Day visit
ors should be given a great musical
treat.
The strength of this western team
is well shown by studying its record
for the year. The strongest teams
in the west have been met and
defeated with the exception of the
Michigan University team. Ac
cording to reports this game was
the roughest ever played on a foot
ball field in the state of Michigan
and Yost’s men were completely
outplayed except foi a field goal
by Splawn, the Michigan Brickley.
The team has seven regular players
who defeated the Michigan Univer
sity team last year. In the entire
game this year Yost’s iren were
able to gain but 18 yards around
the Aggies ends. - A comparison of
the playing of the now famous
State ends with the visitors' ends
will add interest to the game.
Julian, captain and fullback, who
is playing his third season as a reg
ular, has been chosen for second
fullback on the All-Western eleven
by numerous competent critics in
cluding Walter Eckersall, of Chi
cago, and Batchelor, of the Detroit
Free Press.
Blake Miller, at left end, is play
ing his third year of varsity football
and was picked by all critics for
the All-Western team in his fresh
man year. On the defense he plays
quarterback and O. Miller takes his
place at end. This latter player
plays quarterback on the offense
and while he is only a fair player in
that position he is generally conced
ed to be one of 'the greatest defen
sive ends that the west has ever
produced.
Smith is playing his second year
at left tackle and is considered by
several critics to be of All-Western
MICHIGAN AGGIES
caliber. On the other side of the
line Blacklock is also a veteran at
tackle.
De Prato, halfback, while a good
offensive player, is of most value to
his team as a defender. He does
most of the kicking, averaging 40
yards from scrimmage. He is also
an experienced player.
Right End Chaddock is playing
his first year but has already prov
ed to be a sensational offensive
eb'drTafflSuiafly' m carrying "tile'
ball himself. He is also shifty on
the defense.
Straight, Vandervoort, Loveland
and Henry work at guards. The
first two, who generally start the
game, are playing their first year.
. H. Miller, a brother of Blake
Miller, is the other back and is very

speedy and shifty both on offense
and defense.
The substitutes are also mostly
composed of veterans. Hutton and
Coryell are tackles. Hammill and
Cobb light shifty backs, Fick is a
light fast quarter, J. O’Callahan a
light heady fullback.
At present the greatest change in
the State lineup will be in the back
field. Higgins will be moved to
fullback in an effort to bolster the
offense and defense, since he is a
hard sure tackier, a good catcher of

Lafayette Opens Soccer Season
The first varsity soccer game of
the season will be played on
New Beaver Field this Saturday
afternoon with Lafayette at tuo
o’clock and. judging by reports,
the visitors will enter the contest
confident of wiping out the sting of
the football defeat of two weeks
ago. The State team although
without the services of a coach
have improved rapidly and are
primed for the first game. With a
record number of candidates prac
tising this fall Captain Gregg and
Manager Vollmer have shaped up
what appears to be a winning com
bination. The team is composed
principally of veterans and the two
new men have had a great amount
of former experience. Admission
tickets at 25 cents may be procured
at any time at the Co-op-
The support by the student body
is impetative for two reasons.
The value of organized cheering
will have considerable effect in urg
ing a minor sport team to play hard.
The price of admission is also im
portant. The size of our college
demands that it be represented in
practically every sport, and, since n
minor sport team receives no
revenue fiom the athletic associa
tion, it is entirely dependent upon
the student body for support.
Another Verse to “Victory”
"Jimmy" Leyden sends us the
second verse of "Victory" as fol
lows:
Whether the foe is weak or stiong
Or victory is far away
We’ll ne’re give in, but fight to wit:
This is a Penn State Day.
Yard by yard we’re bound to gain
Our cheers will fill the air
And every man who’s in the game
Is bound to do his share.
(Bring this with you to the game.,
Graduate Manager Smith is ar
ranging a system to facilitate quick
seating at the game and everyone is
urged to observe the regulations
and follow the directions of the
student guides.

appeared in the Lehigh game was
the costly fumbling. The tackling

caused so much favorable press

given by prominent men of the
state. The men’s glee club and the
women’s glee club will sing. Since
many members-elect of the Legis
