No 18 PENN , STATE ELEVEN FACES SUPREME TEST I MIDDIES Eastern Championship Hinges On Result Of Game—Both Teams Prepared • • For Terrific Battle INJURIES MAKE 1 • ' WHITE lin; The greatest game’ of the year, a battle that 'nill virtually determine the football championship of'tho east, tak es place tomorrow in Philadelphia be tween Penn State and Navy and the entire countiy is agog over the out come One by one the big teams have fallen by the wayside until only Navy, Penn State, Yale, Cornell, and Lafa > ette remain undefeated and nre able to lay any claim to the gridiron crown Yale, Cornell, and Lafay ette however, by Season of their light schedules, cannot justly be regarded as possessing the best elevens Yale ihas stacked up against only one worthy opponent. Army, a team which lost to Notre Dame 28' to 0, while Cornell has met only Dartmouth, and Lafayette hns trimmed only one good team, Pitt On the other hand. Navy walloped Princeton, a team which defeated Harvard last week, and has successfully mot several other first ■ class aggregations, while Penn State has kept Its slate clean thru one of the hardest schedules in years Lebanon Valley, Gettysburg, North Carolina State, Lehigh, Georgia Tech, and Car negie Tech have been swept asrde by one-sided scores and Harvard was tied 21 to 21 in a wonderful contest that proved the great strength of the Nit tany Lions The playing of both Penn , State and Navy has stood out above all others, in appeal anco and thru rec ord, and their meeting on Saturday has been rightfully rated as one which will probably Indicate the best' eleven of eastern United States Pitt, hitherto a great contender for honors. Is 'out of the race this jear because of defeats by .Lafayette and Nebraska but .will question Penn State’s right to sec tional championship on Thanksgiving the gamo_ ends An Immense amount of interest has arisen in Philadelphia and the neai vicinity over tomorrow’s contest and one i of the largest crowds in the his tory of. that metropolis is expected to worm its way onto Franklin Field. Tho Navy-Penn State game willJdo the big attraction of the day Inasmuch as Penn will bo playing Dartmouth In New York City For the first time in many years, the two upper classes of tho U / S Naval Academy will be per mitted to go to a game In which the , Navy is meeting an opponent other than Army and a largo delegation of men is planning to take advantage of tho opportunity offered In addition, many naval mon are living In or near Philadelphia and with their friends will bo on hand to support tho Middies. In all probability though, tho Academy representatives will bo outnumbered by Nittany supporters Over a thousand students are migrating from State College for the big fray, while tho Al umni of the east arc making extensive arrangements and will be present in large numbers Indications point to a big Penn State cheering section Navy Is Procured The Navy eleven is roused to a high pitch over the impending battle and considers it the hardest game of the year, with duo recognition to Army, the Middies’ worst rival Ever since tho Princeton game, the players have been pointing-for Penn State They have been keeping somthlng in reverse In contests played to date but tomorrow will release all that they have and will do their utmost to coma thru victor iously This week has been one of strenuous work. Scrimmage was in dulged in from the very start, despite tho hard game which tho Academy team had with Buckneli last Saturday, and much time was spent preparing an adequate defense for Penn State plays Signal practice of long duration occur red too, nothing being left unturned in an effort to got tho players into prime condition Tho main practice was wound up yesterday at Annapolis, the team coming up to Philadelphia today for a light signal workout Navy is primarily a line-bucking team and, depends' upon Its wonderful driving power to offsot any strength that an opponent may have Its offense is of a differontsnature than that em ployed by Penn State but like the Nit tany attack is very powerful. Tho line averages about one hundred and eighty two pounds per man, ,thus being al most on a par with the avordupols of tho Lion’s line, and, according to re ports, it is better than any line which IJcnn State bas faced this season Tho baclrflold Ukowiso is strong and will piove a difficult combination for Bez dok’s men to stop. Although it over ages only one hundred and sixty-four pounds a man, it Is very flashy and contains a powerful punch in' offen sive tactics Barchet, tho fullback, es pecially will bear watching. Ho Is a great plungor and gains consistently. Navy has three other good backs in Conroy, tho quarterback, and Koohlior (Continued on last page)) f ffettn Stair IH BLUE AND ' [E-UP UNCERTAIN SOCCER TEAM PREPARES FOR SOUTHERN GAME! Haverford, Swarthmore, and Navy Will Probably Make Up Sche dule For Jaunt in South In anticipation for some unusually haul games at tho ond of tho soccer season for 1021, the Penn State squad has t cached Its stride and Is now en tering upon tho period of preparation fot the games composing the annual trip which will be to the southland this i ear Up to date, the record of the Blue and White booters has not been stained with a defeat for several sea sons and it is the aim of Coach Paken ham and his under studies to win a cleai title to evory-gamo played, even if the outlook at the present time is not as cheery os it might be With the Syracuse and Lehigh games ovei, all efforts will be made to strengthen the weak points that persist in undermining the splendid development in some of the other de paitments of the booting game En durance is .still lacking as 'was shown in the game last week The play start ed out In tho characteristic Penn State manner with the Lion rushing the play into Lehigh territory but tho aspect changed as the soccerites were unable to keep up with tho fa9t-pace that they they had set The forwardMino seemed to work together as a whole to a great er extent than they did at the beginn ing of the home season but cooperation was lacking_botvvoen Jthe (jackfleld and line " Tbo passing, - shooting, _ and dribbling was far superior to that' of tho Lehigh men but this advantage' was lost in the Inability of tho players to be in their right positions at the right time Tho first part of tho week will bo used by the coaching staff in empha sizing the duties attached to the vari ous positions and each man of'tho lino will receive individual instruction to cover tho exigencies of the different plays At the same time, practice will bo given the men in placing shots The definito program for the south ern jaunt has not been definitely agreed upon by the athletic associations that are negotiating at the present time Both Haverford and Swarthmore have expressed a willingness to entertain the team during tho week of Thanks giving and the manager of tho sport hopes to secure another opponent. The trip last year r was made to Canada, when the elevens representing Cornell and Toronto were defeated decisively and tho Syracuse aggregation was able to tie tho score after a bitter struggle. Another 3uch a record-Is the'goal this jear but it must be admitted that'the achedulo Is more imposing. Haverford presents one of the strongest teams in the Intercollegiate ■ soccer world today although it was dufeated by a foul goal kick In tho recent game with the Univ ersity of Princeton. Swarthmore is situated in tho heart of tho soccer country and has always boon known as producing teams of a high calibre in this sport It is rumored that tho Navy or tho Army will bo tho oppon ents in tho other game and this is suf ficient to show that a clean record for this season will bo an asset to Penn State’s reputation in tho field of sport COLLEGIAN SELECTS CUB REPORTERS FOR ITS STAFF The first cut for the first year candidates for positions on the editor ial staff of tho COLLEGIAN has been nmdo and the following freshmen will, bo retained as cub reporters W.
