ANNUAL FOOTBALL.
SCRAP TOMORROW
Underclass Elevens Will Compete
for Gridiron Honors on Hew
Beaver Field
Tho football supremacy of the two
lower classes will bo decided on Now
Beaver Field tomorrow afternoon when
tho Freshmen and Sophomoro gridiron
representatives meet In the annual
scrap This scrap has always been re
garded as one of tho most Important of
the year and consequently much Inter
est Is taken In It not only by the un
dorclossmen but by tho entire college.
For the Inst two seasons the contests
have resulted In scoreless tics because
of tho fact that neither sldo has had
tho punch required to push the pigskin
over for a scoro. Thu guino last year
was played under adverse conditions,
the ground being covered with an Inch
or two of snow* while a driving min
sw'opt over thu Held. Each team how
oxer gave Its utmost with tho rosult
that tha outcome of the gamo was al
ways In doubt. In thu last fow minutes
of tho anal quarter tho Sophomores
managed to plant the bull behind tho
goal posts but did so on an Illegal piny
and the touchdown was declared void
- This >car, if tho determination of the
members of both teams counts for any
thing, it will bo a different story. The
yearling eleven feels that It will be able
to smash thu defense of the second-
year aggregation and wilt be able to suc
cessfully stop tho latter’s olTonso On
the othci hand, tho '~3 team, although
hurriedly collected In tho past few days,
Is confident that It can defeat tho vlc-
torlous Freshman team. Because of
tho excellent record which tho llrst-joar
men havo made this season they arc
favored to win tomorrow's scrap but the
Sophomores aro determined to offset this
advantage by fight and u close game Is
assured
Tho Sophomoro candidates were only
called out at the beginning of this week
but, with three or four men who made
strong bids for tho 'varsity and with
tho nucleus of last year’s Freshman
squad to pick from, Coach Beck and
Halnos bcllovo that they can build up
a strong machine. Tho men havo In
dulged only In signal practlco and havo
mastered tho plajs with which they
hope to foil tho yearlings The per
sonnel of tho team has not .been de
finitely decided upon but tho linesmen
will probably bo picked from tho fol
lowing men* Parks, Boeder, McMahon,
Murray, llalns, Howscr, Butler, Par
ent, and Spicer, whllo tho bucks will
bo selected from a small group that
Includes F. Hess, Harper, Lent, and
Parsons
Tho lineup of tho Freshmnn team will
bo thu same as that which started again
st .thojSiptbiC-Cub’Oiva „wot4»-
Frank and Becker at ends,
Madera and Crowthor at the tackla posi
tions, CapL Bunser and Schoenfeld at
guards, Hamilton at contor, Bathgobcr
at quarter. Carson and Wilson at
and left halves respectively and Corn
wall at fullback. Two or three substi
tutions will probably bo mndo during
tho gamo In order to glvo some of the
men a clranco who havo been showing
almost as well us tho men who aro to
start the game. Although the members
of tho squad havo been inking life
rather easy for tho Inst fow days they
are In lino condition nnd will go on
tho field propared to glvo their best.
TOSSERS PREPARE FOR
- FIRST HOME CONTEST
With over fifty promising candidates
out for dally practice, and from which
to select his floor team. Coach "Dutch"
Herman should experience llttlo dltn
„culty In developing a varsity quintet
of as high a calibre as last season’s
championship five. Tho Blue nnd White
tossors had a splendid year Inst season,
coming through with but one or two
defeats, and with four veterans, Kil
lingcr, Boploglo, Wolf and Haines, eli
gible to play again, the only thing that
Is worrying Conch Herman Is to uncover
a man who can (111 a forward position.
This vacancy was caused bj tho gradu
ation of Mullun, star forward of last
5 ear and ono of tho best players over
turned out of Penn Slate. This is ono
of the moat Important positions on s tho
team, and It means that oodagzOß
team, and It moans that n good man of
tho samo class as tho other four players
must bo developed to take the place of
Mullan or tho teamwork will bo ser
iously handicapped.
Rltta, Wilson, Bittner and Whiteman,
all of last season’s second team, loom
up as tho most likely contenders for
tho vacancy. All of those men pushed
last gear’s varsity to tho limit to hold
their positions, and as they aro dis
playing better form than last season,
tho positions of tho veterans are by no
means intact. Many members of lust
winter’s yearling five aro computing for
varsity positions and from tho fight
they aro showing, promise to give tho
first string men a good raco for their
places on tho squad.
Even with tho excellent material on
hand tho players ns well ns tho Coach
reallzo that Manager Myers has arrang
ed a very dlßicult schedulo, nnd that
It will bo necessary for them to keep
In tho best of condition at all llmoß If
they hope to come through tho season
successfully, Tho first contest of tho
year Is slated for Wednesday ovonlng,
December fifteenth, with tho Junldta
Collcgo quintet as opponents of tho var
sity. Coach Herman has only two
w'ceks In which to whip his men into
sliapo for this gamo, and It will bo a
difficult job to do as both Captain Kll
llnger and Halnos havo just been re
leased from football training and woro
unahlo to report for practice* until this
week.
To dato no call has boon Issued for
tho yearling candidates but it Is expect
ed that they will bo called out as soon
as tho varsity schedule Is woll under
way.
ROMIG LEADS FIELD .
IN BERWICK MARATHON
Blue and White Harrier Defeats
Track Veterans in Remarkable
Thanlisgiving Day Race
Within flvo days after capturing the
tltto at tho Intor-colleginto cross coun
try meet at Vale UnlvcrHlty, Captain J.
L Rotnlg *2l of the Penn Statu cross
country tcatn. In a wonderful exhibit
tion of distance running, was tho first
man to finish in tho annual Berwick,
Pennsylvania marathon raco held on
Thanksgiving Day. Tho victory of tho
Blue and Whlto harrier has mndo a de
cided Impression in truck circles, and as
a result Romig has materially strength
ened his reputation of being one of tho
best long dlstanco runners now starring,
Thu test through which ho passed suc
cessfully last week was a gruelling
one,as the nice was run under tho worst
possible weather conditions, on a course
considered one of the hardest In Amer
ica, and tho .Ust of entries was ono on
which were Included . many of the
world’s most fnmous runners of vnrlous
nationalities Romlg's time for the
nine and ono quarter mile course was
remarkable considering the adverse
conditions under which tho race was
run. Kla time’ for tho distance was
fifty minutes and fifty ono seconds
Mis closest competitor was Ritola, of
Now York City, who holds tho tltlo of
1020 national cross country champion,
and who Is ono of tho most brilliant
runners now In tho public light Ho
finished one hundred yards behind
Romig. Studenroth '23, another mem
ber of this fall's cross country’ team at
Penn State also finished well up among
the leaders, placing fifth In tho race
Tho marathon Is an annunl feature
In Berwick, and this year tho list of
thosQ who participated was the most
formidable that has over been arranged.
Among thoso who wero defeated b>
Romig and Ritola were Tltterton, of
Now York, flvo mllo Indoor and tlirco
mile outdoor Metropolitan champion;
Zuna, winner of tho A. E. P. marathon
of all divisions In Franco, and a member
of tho American Olympic Team at tho
recent International games ut(Antwerp
Belgium, Hulsebach. of New York, the
only member of the American Olympic
Team to place In tho steeple chase at
Antwerp during tho Olympiad; Holder,
former cross country champion of the
United States, Trlvoulldcs. winner of
this year’s Boston marathon, member
of tho Greek Team at -tho Olympics,
nnd winner of tho Greek race from
Marathon to Athens; and many other
runners of national and international
reputation.
Tho weather conditions were very poor
before and during tho racu. Much rain
had made tho roads oxtremely muddy
and for part of tho dlstanco tho runners
had to rnsico tbolc-way through, ajcuiwr
>W ni i.-r<rn«-T;<nira> *is ‘TnarKed by sev
eral steep hills which aro a sovero test
for any runner From tho beginning
of tho run, Romig and Ritola drew away
from the rest of the’ field, and these
two kept well together until near the
end of the course, when Romig steadily
outdlstancod tho Now* Yorker, and
breasted tho tape ono hundred yards
ahead of his competitor. Track ex
perts who witnessed tho event declare
that tho raco w*as ono of tho flnoat
they have over seen and that Ramie Is
one of tho best dlstanco men now on
tho track Ho was prosonted with a
beautiful diamond ring as a trophy for
his victory. '
After tho race, Romig was tendered
a reception at tho Acacia Club of Ber
wick, at which many Ponn State Alumni
woro present.

IN JUNE PROGRAM
Rearrangement of Commencement

Extensive changes In tho Commence
ment week program Involving tho hold
ing of the annual Review of the Cadet
Regiment on the afternoon preceding
the examination period instead of the
Saturday morning before Graduation,
tho transfer of Alumni Day from Tues
day, as In the past, to Saturday, nnd
the moving of Commencement up n day
from Wednesday lo Tuesday, are now
awaiting tho ratification of the Board
of trustees These changes havo been
drawn uf> by tho Council of Adminis
tration at the suggestion of the Trust
ees nnd only need tho olllclal approval
of thut body * to go into effect this

Sovcml memhors of the alumni saw
the need of changing the (time of Al
umni Day during the commencement
activities to nn earlier day nnd sug
gested to the trustees that the Saturday

nsldo for'tho graduate members of the
college. The other changes were also
suggested so tho Board of Trustees ask

ternoon to stay over tho extra day to

Thcro is no regulation of tho military
department which necessitates holding
the review on Saturday and In view* of
the convcnlenco to tho students It has
been decided to hold the formation at
an earlier day* and tho afternoon bo
fore tho start of examinations was con
sidered tho moat suitable. This af
fair will not only include tho review
of the student soldiers by some prom
inent military man but also a field
day Contests mainly of a military na
ture will bo engaged In by the men and
will occupy the entiro aftomoon with
tho formal review*.
Tho examinations will occupy* tho
