SOPHOMORES LOSE 12-0 Freshmen Fail to Fully Show Re puted Strength. The sophomores, although de feated last Satunday on Beaver field in the annual scrap game, de serve a great amount of credit in holding their heavier opponents to such a low score. Numerous times with their goal in danger they turn ed back the line smasher, Eaton, the end running, Clark, or they broke up a pass. Eliminating an unfortunate fumble by Burns, the game would have ended in a 6-0 The ability of both teams in the fundamentals of the game reflects great ci edit to both coaches, con sidering their inability to keep to gether a combination throughout the season. The size of the score is no indi cation of the ground gaining ability of the freshmen. Between the 25 yard lines the wearers of the green gained at will. Eaton was particu larly able to pierce the line but a good fullback on the sophomore team would have reduced his effi- Houtz, while he was in the game, starred for the sophs. Burns and Hallowell also played good games for 1917. 1918 had little difficulty in gain ing in the first half ar.d were only held scoreless by the alertness of Houtz who broke up three of their passes inside his 8 yard line. The sophs only threatened to score once when Fair recovered a punt on the freshman 32 yard line. At this time a try at field goal failed. Tne freshmen scored in the mid dle of the third period by the line plunges of Eaton and the end run ning of Clark and Gross. In the early fourth period Eaton, Clark and Gross carried the ball to the 5 yard line where the sophs held for downs. Shortly after Burns fum bled a kick and T 8 recovered on the sophs 14 yard line and on five triesthe last touchdown was scored. Places of Interest in Pittsburgh.

Whitehair certainly made a deep impression upon the student body, but who would not be im pressed by such an enthusiastic man as we had with us over Sun day. During his visit here, Mr. Whitehair spoke at both chapels, at the 6:30 meeting, to the Student Volunteers and to a number of groups which met at various places. The keynote to his wonderful in fluence over men is his own life, and the deep sincerity of purpose for which that life stands. As an interesting speaker, as a jolly good companion, and as a true, Christian man, Charley Whitehair stands high in the rank. His broad ex perience as a Y. M. C. A. secre tary in India furnishes him with an abundance of material, intensely in teresting as he tells it, which he presents in the most sincere and forceful manner. In his advice to college men he is very frank and in dead earnest. His plea for a “clean Pittsburgh” was the plea of a man’s better self for a square deal to all concerned. The men at State are fortunate in having such a man vis it the college, and it goes without saying that he will always receive a hearty welcome. Bingham Entertains Large Audience The second Y. M. C. A. show was presented Saturday night by Mr. Ralph Bingham, the noted humorist. Bingham certainly proved himself to be the prince of entertainers. From the moment he appeared before the audience to the close of his last number, the au dience was kept in almost a con tinual roar of laughter. The hum orous numbers were interspersed with several serious selections and a violin so'o in which the performer showed himself to be an artist who can interpret the more serious things in life. Bingham is a past master of Negro and Irish dialect, but his strongest point lies in his ability to tell a story, and tell it in such a way that no one can do any thing but laugh.
