Frizes Offered By Merchants
For Best Costumes—Custom
Will Be Enforced
For the third time In her history,
Penn State will be Invaded next Sat
urday by the "Loyal Order of the Sons
of Rest", in which all freshmen will be
recognized as members in goodT and
regular standing. Each of the ..other
two years has been a singular success
and now the custom is firmly estab
lished. It Is interesting to note that
a’ number of other colleges have fol
lowed Penn State’s exajnple in setting
a day of the college year aside to hon
or the Gentlemen of the Road
In the preceding years too much
stress has been laid on securing cos
tumes that would be more appropriate
for a fancy dress ball than a ride on
the brake-beams of the Twentieth Cen
tury Limited. Novelty is all right and
Is encouraged so long as the originator
sticks to a subject that is fitting, to
the occasion. The Student Council has
decreed- that the costumes shall he
worn from eight thirty in the morning
until five o'clock in the evening Dur
ing the Interval between halves at the
football gome the freshmen will be
given an opportunity to stage a snake
dance.
The prizes whi&h. will bo given fqj
lowing the snake dance on the fleia
will bo awarded on the basis of the
most original and novel costume A
laige number of State College people
have offered prizes for_tbe best cos
tumes. These prizes with their don

Candidates for Varsity Squad
Working Hard for Opening

'That the varsity soccei squad bids
fair to be one of the best that has been
developed at Penn State foi many
years, Is evidenced by the dally work
outs that characterize the practice of
the different team os the date for the
opening game of the season approach
es Since the first of this week when
the coaching staff started the squad
on the second step of its practice sche
dule, thoTbootcra havo boon working ev
ery night with all the energy that is
able to be summoned and yet It is.pre
dicted that the work will assume an
oven harder aspect before the season
is over.
, The crippled list is practically the
same as it was last week However,
Longhurst ’23 who played goal for the
varsity lost season, returned to the
field yesterday to get back Into the
sw'lng Paget '22 will not be able to

Among the candidates that arc show

Y. M. C. A. PLANS BANQUET
FOR CARNEGIE ROOTERS
The sale of football 'savings stamps
at the Carnegie Institute of Technology
Is on the increase'and at tho present
rato It appears as though considerably
over three hundred rooters from tho
Plaid institution will attend the game
horo on Pennsylvania Day. Due to tho
fact that fraternity and other houses
will bo overcrowded, at that tlmo, tho
Y M. C. A. Is planning to servo an
open air banquet to the Tech students
and see that they are well cared for
Tho feasibility of holding the banquet
in tho open air Is a question /which has
not yet boon decided. One thing, how
over, Is certain, and that Is that tho
men from Pittsburgh will be welt en
tertained while here, A special train
carrying the Carnegie Tech players and

STATE COLLEGE, PA., FRIDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1921
ACADEMY FOOTBALL
TEAM IS HEAVIER
THAN FRESHMAN
Frosh Are Slow But ore Gradually
Acquiring: Herman's Style
Of PJay
LINE-UP ANNOUNCED
Bellefonte Has Speedy Team—
Heavy Men in Both The
Backfield and Line
Coach "Dutch" Herman is far from
satisfied about the outlook for the
Freshman football season, hut at that
be has the men tn ralrly good shape
for the opening contest which will be
staged on New Beaver Field at one
thirty o’clock to-morrow afternoon
when a husky group of players from
the Bellefonte Academy will appear as
the yearling’s opponents. This year
the Penn State team docs not appear to
be anywhere near as‘good as the ag
gregation which represented the Fresh'
men on the gridiron lost year and the
Bellefonte squad is apparently better
than every
In all probability the Nittany team
will start the game with the following
lino-up McCoy L E, Parshall L T,
Artlet L. G, Shuner C.. Flock R. G.
Alwine R. T, Anderson R. E, Ta}B
Q. Hartman L H B • Schoner F B,
and Lowry R. H. B
•McCoy and Anderson may be replac
ed at end by Koch and Wirt Last
week, both of the men who now hold
end positions on the first team played
exceptionally good football against the
varsity, but this week they seem to
have gone a .trifle stale and the coach
maj make the change suggested in
order to put more fight into the men
who are bidding for the positions
Shaner, who has been playing center,
has improved somewhat In his passing,
but Webster, who is also out for that
position Is constantly improving and
he will undoubtedly get a chance to
show his calibre for at least a portion
of tho game to-morrow Yost has been
out of the line-up for several days due
to the fact that he recently Injured his
shoulder This Injury should be heal
ed by Saturday and tho lad who prev
iously hold a position on Coach Her
man’s tentative line-up will probably
make *a big effort to regain bis place
The' mum development - of the present
week has been that of Wilson, who has
been playing the position of fullback
on the Freshman second team Wilson
has been making rapid ’progress and
if things look favorable. Coach Herman
will probably give him the opportunity
of showing his merit tomorrow The
second backfield appears to be speedi
er than the first but It does not havo
the weight of the latter and conse
quently lacks the ability of charging
the line in the manner in whclh Bcz
dek likes to see It done The second
backfield which will undoubtedly make
Its appearance sometime during to
morrow's game is composed of Kerstet
ter Q, Kratz H B. Brokenshior H B
and Wilson F B
Last Wednesday tho Freshman tack
led the second varsity team and made
a showing that apparent!} was far
from pleasing to the coach The guard
and tackle are at the present time the
weakest positions on tho line and it is
safe to assume tho substitutes for this
position will get their chance sometime
to-morrow
Bellefonte Powerful
The Bellefonte team taken ns avvholo
is much hcavlei than the one which
will represent tho -Freshmen Tho a\ -
eiage line weight of the lads from the
count} seat Is botween ISO and 190
pounds, while the average weight of
the yearlings line amounts to 177
pounds The Bellefonte team has the
advantage of having a heavy and
’speedy b ickflcld also, their bucks av
eraging almost 180 pounds and most of
them aie fust runners This heavy
backfield should figure conspicuously
In tomorrows game once they get tear
ing and plowing at the Freshman Uno
Comparatively, the Frosh backfield Is
very light, the average weight being
ICC pounds Hartman and Tais, al
though very light, have been showing
flashes' of speed during the test week
and should cither of them got through
the Bellefonte line they will he hard
men to stop
Tho Bellefonte team is practically
new this year ns only two men on the
entire squad played varsity for tho Ac
ndomy last year Although the team Is
giecn concerning the Bellefonte system
of coaching, the men have been learn
ing lather fast and thoir weight and
general aggressiveness will make them
a hard foe to kOcp down This year
the Academy has a now coach In Mr
Duban who was a star halfback on tho
191 G Washington and Jefferson team
Tho new coach is responsible for many
now ploys and, tho Freshmen wdll.be
expecting the Bellefonte lads to'have £
sj stem of play that will be vastly dif
ferent from anything which thoy have
presented here In former years.
Lost week tho Academy boys held
the Bucknell reserves to a scoreless tio
and at that completely outplayed thoir
opponents Tho reserves have a heavy
team this year, In fact, It is ono of
the best that has ever represented them
on the gridiron Tho line-up of, the
team that will start the gamo for Belle
fonto contains the nomo of but one
man who played horo last year. Eith
er Rachella or Daro will start at left
end tho rest of tho line-up will bo as
follows: R. Linn L T, Kishbaugh L G.
Bycr C, VanHoo R. G, McCabo R. T.,
Alexander R. E, Capt Irwin Q, Quinn

Icho showing of the team against

preparations to "get’ Pcun State The
Blue and White coaching staff, howev
er, while looking forward to these gam
es, is not losing sight of the fray with
North Carolina and will probabl} send
the strongest line-up in tomorrow* The
southern aggregation, in its first con
test this season trimmed Randolph
Macon bv tlie score of 21 to 0, and al
though it lost last week to tlie Nuval
Acadcm} b} u one-sided count, it made
the Middies fight over} inch of the
naj and It Is coming here to attempt
to wipe out the 41 to 0 defeat handed
it last }e u b} Penn State On the
other liuid, tho Nittany Lions will
suite to annex a second victory over
the Tar Heels and, at the same time,
attempt to run up a score equal to or
bctlci thun th it registered by the Navy
The result of tho game will serve as
a meins of comparing tho two elevens,
Penn Stale and Navy, which are to
meet in Philadelphia on the twelfth of
November

however, is well grounded on the North
Carollni stvle of play and all of the

bast man behind the lino and will beat
