BOXERS BEGIN TRAINING
FOR STRENUOUS SEASON
With several of last year’s varsity
men back in the pink of condition and
ready to start training for a strenu
ous schedule, prospects for os success
ful a season as was enjoyed last year
begin to cheer tho Penn State follow
ers of tho manly art The only serious
gap made in tho llno-up was caused
by the graduation of Captain ICahloy
In the 115 pound class Clough, Grif
fiths, Bordncr, Atnarlsh, Chapen, and
Vasilia are all anxious to don the mitts
Big "Bags’* Madera also would probab
ly bo anxious to try tho ring if ho
were not occupied at present with
thoughts of tho gridiron
Another feature that will have some
influence upon tho winter pastime will
bo the largo numbers of freshmen and
underclassmen who have signed up for
the sport to secure gym credit These
men arc being coached by members of
last years* varsity rlngment in the
fundamental points of the art which
will servo ns preliminary training for
tho now mon. An opportunity to win
their class numerals both in tho Frosh
mon-Sophomoro scrap and in tho lntor
class tournament is probably ono of
tho chlof reasons for tho largo turnout
of would-be boxors and among thorn
are somo who are clevor in ringside
tactics. Tho wealth of material that
scorns to crop out during the training
period insures some close competition
In tho trials and contests that will be
held'throughout the season this year.

PAKENHAM INSTITUTES
ENGLISH STYLE OF PLAY
IN SOCCER SCRIMMAGE
Coaching Staff Starts Varsity
' Squad On Second Step of
Practice Schedule
The third week of soccer practice
will mark the beginning of real grind
ing work on the part of tho varsity
booters ns Coaches Denis and Paken
ham begin to prepare their proteges for
the intermediate step in the working
'schedule as outlined at the beginning
of the season by tho two coaches The!
first step, that of mastering tho fun
damental details of the game, has been
emphasized as much os Is possible in
the short time that the coaches had
for this work and so they have deter
mined to start tho varsity squad on
the second step, that of becoming ac
quainted with the game in tho excite
ment duo to scrimmage
According to the coaches, one of the
big assets of an amateur team is the
ability to control every action in tho
excitement of close and fast play and
this ability cpn only be obtained by
actual experience. On Friday night,
the squad was given Its first tasto of
seiimmago this year when two teams
were selected to oppose each other
In a very short contest. This contest
showed the fallings of tho team and
each individual to such a degree that
no doubt remains as 'to tho work that
is before the coaches and the squad
Last Saturday afternoon, a scrimmage
was hold for fifty minutes with a de
cided improvement showing, due to tho
efforts of tho coaches at the preceding
scrimmage From now on, the daily
workouts will consist mostly of scrim
mage until the opening gamo of the
season which will probably take place
on tho homo field during the nfiddle of
this month
Tho success of tho soccer season this
year depends upon tho ability of the
squad to overcome the handicap of i
short training period and this ought to
be accomplished since the ability of the
two coaches can only bo estimated in
the highest of terms Professor Denis,
who‘is connected with the School of
Agriculture as a Professor of Rural
Sqclology, is a former Haverford star
and a coach among eastern soccer
circles with no mean reputation For
many years ho has followed, tho boot
ing game with the interest of an en
thusiast and is thoroughly acquainted
with the details of this rising sport.
Mr Pakonham comes to Penn State
with an enviable record as soccer coach
and -as ,aa;ufficer In tho. British anny-
Playlng a stellar role among tho chief
booters at Oxford University, in Eng
land, Mr. Fakenham naturally was
chosen to coach the team representing
.England's finest regiment, The Cold
stream Guards _As a captain in this
regiment, he served three years in
France, during which time he was
wounded on several occasions and was
cited for gallantry in action He was
awarded the Victoria Cross and upon
being retired, was given the rank of
Major While in the service, he gain

of tho teams which ho drilled The

off Former Successes
The third annual observance of Pov
erty Day at Penn State will be held
next Saturday when all freshmen will
step out attired In uniforms suitable for
such an occasion In other words,
rags will bo at a premium in State Col
lege over tho week end
In the fail of 1919, tho custom of ob
serving this day and paying respect
to the Gentleman of the Road was in
augurated with such an unexpected
success that tho student body heartily
endorsed tho action of its representati
ves in council assembled when it was
decided to make this a regular fcatuio
of Penn State custom Last year, the
success of tho first Poverty Day was
again repeated which strengthened the
position of this regulation all tho
moro firmly as a Penn State celebra
tion This year, Student Council has
declared October eight to be Poverty
Day and tho atmosphere of tho occas
ion to be preserved from eight o’clock
in the morning till five o’clock that
evening
Suitable prizes aro to bo awarded to
those who are adjudged to havo the
most appropriate njttlro Throughout
tho day, all freshmen will obey tho
spirit of tho day Between the half per
iods of tho football contest, tho first
y oar men will form a parade and march
around tho gridiron on the track and
so puss tho Judges’ stand. Thora tho
prizes will bo awarded to those who are

INITIAL GAME SATURDAY
Coach Herman’s Tentative Line-
Up Remains the Same—
Changes Expected
Aftei another week of hard work, the
line-up of the Freshman football team
is still unsettled and tho tentative ar
rangement of tho fhst team is about
tho same as that which appeared In tho
COLLEGIAN last week Many meni
bets of tho Fjosh squad have been
working like titans to obtain one of
the much coveted positions and arc apt
to break into the lime-light at any
time At tho present it looks as though
the game with-Bellefonte will open with
McCoy at loft end, Parshatl at left
tackle, Yost at left guard, Shaner at
center. Flock nt right guard, Alwine
at right tackle and Anderson at light
end Tays will in all probability be the
quarterback for the Freshman and
Lowry and Hartman take care of tho
half back positions Schmidlin is at
present holding down the position of
fullback and will no doubt start tho
game
During the week a gtcat amount of
development has taken place among
the members of the second and third
teams The men who fill these posi

gradually getting into form so that
they aio constantly giving the men
who hold down positions on the tenta

Varsity and Freshman cross-coun
try trials will be held this coming Sat
urday afternoon and Coach Martin Is
expecting every distance runner among
the three bundled men who have been
rporting for track to be on hand and
take part in the initial hill and dale
meet of tho season. This race will be
held as a preliminary to tho more
strenuous trials that will take place
later In the season when tho coach will
be facing tho problem of selecting the
team to represent Penn State In the
contests which are being scheduled
Tho object of running the preliminary
trials so early in the season Is to en
able tho coach to learn moro of the
men who aro doing the best work and
also to got his runners organized
The varsity cross country squad has
now been undergoing intensive train
ing for several weeks Every day the
members of tho squad leave the Track
House about four-thirty In tho after
noon and head for tho Barrens They
have daily been covering distances
ranging from five K> nine miles and
due to this hard work-out tho entire
string of varsity runners, Including:
Captain Cooper, Romlg, Shields, Car
ter, Snyder and Edgerton has been;
constantly Improving Wilhelm, Enck,,
and Wendlcr, of last year’s Freshman
team ire also on the upward climb and
will without a doubt make themselves
conspicuous this fall.
The managers are arranging to have
the Inter-class meet and the Fresh-
Sophomore Meet run sometime during
the piesont month or early In Novem
ber The latter meet should turn out
to be very interesting this year as the
teams representing the two lower class
es arc about on a par.
GHAPEL SPEAKER CENSURES
PESSIMISTS AND QUITTERS
Colonel John Thomas Axton, Chief
of Chaplains, United States Army,
spoke at both chapel services last Sun
daly As was expected, his addresses
were both exceedingly interesting and
full of good advico and food foi
thought. Everyone who attended the
services felt that he had gained some
thing worth while ftoin Colonel Axton’s
sermon
The main topics of tho evening’s
sermon were cheerfulness and freedom
from knocking, the text being, "Judge
not that yo bo not Judged.” Tho en
tire address was skillfully and inter
estingly built upon this passage by
means of Illustrative anecdotes, short
quotations of poetry, and sound advice
icndeied by .the speaker himself

Forensic Council Men
That tho Seniors do not want to go
to chapel services after Thanksgiving
und that'they want a regular full-siz
ed Thanksgiving vacation was shown
at the meeting of the ,1922 class on
Thursday evening in the Bull Pen
After the routine business of admitt
ing new member 1 ? and the appointing l
of committees was gotten out of the
way, the two subjects vvejje brought up
and after extended discussion, the class
voted to draw up the two demands in
the form of petitions and send them to
Student Council to be forwarded to the
college officials
It was brought out in' tho meeting
ithat Seniors for the last few years
have not been required to, attend chap
el after the Thanksgiving vacation
The present state of affairs however
demands that tho Seniors continue to
go until graduation This the class
docs not wish and accordingly voted to
request the college authorities to con
tinue the custom followed for tho past
few years • i
The announcement thac tho Thanks
giving vacation this yearfwould bo for
only one day drew a storm of protest
and in this case also tho class unani
mously voted to ask tho college for the
regulaV vneation period. 5 Tho sugges
tion that the recess from classes dur
ing the Inaugural exercises would in
any way take the placo of the Thanks
giving vacation was promptly refuted
is it was shown that tile three days
in this month aro merely to cnuble
the student body to take An active part
In the Inaugural exercises No stud
ent is expected to go hon(c during this
time, ami for this reasrin if for not
other. It was said that iho Inaugural
exctcises could not be ? construed to
take the place of the Tha iksglving'va

program of the Inauguration Day ev
ents, sotting forth the full details of
the busy program from tho all-college

to the concluding fire-works celebra

ial emphasis on tho fact that tho re

to enable tho studont body to take an

awarded thorn so much face At that
time the} played three selections,
•Bells of Evening," "The Rose," and

tho gi cater part of the audience, they
were hold spellbound at tho unbollci
able lesults produced and agility of tho
members of the quaitct In ringing tho
bells At Uie conclusion of this num

old college songs, a number of old
pieces which were blended into a pleas
ing unification of somo rather quiet
pieces and also some of quick, spirit

In older that tho audience should

ing of Penn State in the first half, all
of the points being mado by Cornwall.
"With tho opening of the thitd quar
ter, the NitLuiy aggregation showed
considerable improvement and smashing
again and again through Lie visitor's
line, pushed over a touchdown in the
middle of tho period, Captain Snell
carrying tho ball over the lino This
seemed to give additional strength to
tho Blue and White pla}ers with the
result that Gott}sburg foiled to mako
much headiva} and, atler_an exchange
of punts, Penn State secured the pig
skin on tho forty yard lino A steady
drive, in which Killingor got away foi
a twenty yaid run, finally took tho
team to Uie five yard line and fiom
here “Killy” plunged thiough for the
third touchdown, just after tho begin

The fact that Gettysburg was quite
familiar with the Nittnn} st}ie of plav
and even used Bozdck's plays, was un
doubtedly a serious handicap to tho
the Penn State eleven This was ex
peclally true In the first half when
largo holes were opened for the
C.ettysbuig backs and three and four
varda were gained on almost oveiv
play. On the offense. In the same per

to take Us opponents off their feet
and the Bluo and White baokfleld men
were consequently tackled bofoio the}
could penetrate very fai into tlie Got
t}sburg terrltor} Inexperience piob
nbl} was responsible for the ragged
plaving inasmuch as the work in tlie
second half was of a higher order In
this period, the visitors did not make
a single first down and in tho entire
fourth quaitci only gained eight yards
in scrimmage On the other hand.
Bezdok’s eleven annexed ten first
downs duiing tho final half and made
almost one hundred and eight} yards
In scrimmage
McMahon Shows Up Well
Tho work of "Tin}” MiMahon nt
right tackle was ono of the most •'en
couraging features of the game and In
dicated that "Tlnv” is rapldl} develop
ing into a very strong linesman In the
first two minutes of play, ho broke
through tho opposition and blocked a
punt, the act resulting indirect]} in the
first Nlttany touchdown Inasmuch as
Hufiford fell on the ball and Cornwall

Inexperienced tackle, showed up well
at times too, while Bedonk, p]a}!ng at
right guard by the sido of McMahon,
pla}ed havoc with tho lighter Gettys

Plays from going through for anv
gain, when tho backfleld of tho visitors
attempted to buck his side of the lino.
