To begin with, Captain 'Wilson. who
was confidently expected to fill one of
the forward berths this )ear, was de
clared ineligible because of scholastic
difficulties and although be attempted
to break back into the line-up oftet the
first semester, his attempt failed and
he did not plot a single contest Coach
Hermann was thereby compelled to
double his efforts to fill the Nittany of
fensive posts adequately and this nat
urally delayed progress to a consider

er player on band who had had an,
experience last yeat, his experience
having been confined to about two var

Coach Heimann determined to build

by a big advantage
Following the Christmas holldals,
which began shortly after tile Juniata
fray and kept the tossers out of train-
Ins for almost three weeks, Hermann
sent his inoteges against Dickinson in
the second game of the season The
Dickinson aggregation proved to be
quite meals and Penn State's engem.,
again had an easy time of it. Two cowl.

in an effort to give the bilttany men

A relapse suffered by the cancels In
the ensuing week lowered their efficien
cy to a very noticeable degree, but al
though they encountered a tough prop
osition In the form of Lebanon ValleB
on the Saturday of that week-end, they
finally managed to pull-through and
won the third game of the year by 29

all that saved Penn State from defeat

parted on their annual tour of the
western part of the state for battles
with Pitt and W & J The game with
the Pitt Panther on Friday night, Feb

by turning out to be a groat spectacle
Both teams played remarkably but

Complete Season With Victories
Defeats fpr the Lions stopped how

Koehler played a great game for Penn
State
The tenoning Saturday, W. & J
journeyed up to Penn State for are
turn game but, minus the services of
the two Conn brothers, failed to display
much opposition and permitted the Nit
tanyites to map revenge for the defeat
that had been administered to them at
Washington. The first half of -the
game ens exceptionally slow for a var

Penn State speeded up and thereby
scored an overwhelming victory. The
score was 32 to It.
The season closed last Saturday when
former Penn State stars met the var
sity In the annual Alumni game This
contest was slower than the usual
gains with the Alumni and resulted In
the varsity passers scoring an easy vie

undoing of , the Alumni, the younger
team scoring frequently from the floor
and preventing the Alumni from el , -

score was 39 to 24.
