RONAVENTURE CRUSHED 54-0 IN FIRST GRID GAME Jjrown and White Aggregation Held Powerless by Strong Nittany Line PENN STATE HACKFIELD MEN SHOW GOOD FORM Bezdek Uses Two Teams Who Gain Six Hundred and Forty Yards by Scrimmage The Penn Suite football warriors opened the 1922 gridiron season Satur day afternoon by a flying attack on St. Bonaventure against whom they rolled up 54 points while holding them scoreless. The game was literally a walkway for Bezdek’s protges for at no time during the contest was the Blue and White In danger. After the first touchdown was rush ed across during the first two minutes of the play, it was evident that the Nittany team would have little oppo sition during the remainder of the con test. The Penn State line had little dif ficulty In tearing down the opposing defense, which made possible the steady drive down the field by the Blue and eleven. During these periods of the game the rebuilt backfield of the Penn State aggregation showed up ex ceptionally well, lending encourage ment to the remainder of the season. On occasions when the St. Bonaven ture representatives had possesion of the pigskin, they were unable to gain any ground by straight scrimmage. Whenever they attempted to rush the ball through the Nittany line they 'bumped against a solid wall. Several times the Brown and White grid men were thrown for a loss, totaling seven teen yards. Being unable to gain ground by bucking the opposing line, the St. Bon .aventure team resorted to numerous passes of which two only were success ful Their attempts at wide end runs were always flustrated by the quick Kittanyites. In the middle of the second quarter of the game, Bezdek sent in an entire new team against the New York visit ors. Up to this time three touchdowns had been scored by the first team. With the entrance of the second tPiun. the Bt Bonaventure opposition was mowed down further for another touch down. During the playing of the second team several men showed up in Die best of form and should in time earn places for themselves mi the varsity eleven. The first sqaud was again sent in (lur ing the third quarter, practically a fresh team and registered four more scoring plays. Of the eight trys for goal after the touch downs, six were successful, five by drop kicks and one by straight lino plunge. Saturday afternoon was hot and the conditions wero not suited for a foot ball contest. Although the heat was telling on both teams, the Brown und White men appeared to feel the effects of it more than the Penn State war riors. After tho first quarter, the St. Bonaventuro delegates were not able to play as hard as they might have been able If the weather were cooler. Over anxiousness of tho Nittany warriors together with the first game of tho season were the causes of num erous penelties which prevented them from running up a larger score than they did. Repoted offsides and hold- ing resulted in penalties amounting to one hundred five yards, which would be an amount to be reckoned with in a more crucial game. The entrance of the second team also may have aided in keeping the score low but it was an advantage both to them and to Bezdek to have them play in n regular ganio against a foreign opponent. Men Show Up Well The work of the men of both team: aent in by Bezdek was of such which tended to dispel any fears for tho re minder of the season. The coaching « Bezdek was evident In tho playing toe pigskin warriors when they tore the opposition of the Brown and n»e or held the opposing attack like e ttone wall.

FRATERNITY MEN DISCUSS • PLANS FOR ALUMNI DAY In the neighborhood of one hundred fraternity men, including two represen tatives from each of the lifty odd chap ter houses, assembled at the Alpha Del ta Sigma fraternity on Sunday evening for the purpose of discussing piaiis for Alumni Day. E. X. Sullivan, Secretary of the Penn Stale Alumni Association, presided at the meeting where opinions of the var ious delegates were heard on matters pertaining in the Alumni homecoming in October. AH of the men were urged to put forth their host in an effort to get as many former Penn Staters as possible back for tho big celebration ; next month. It was thought advisable to keep the Alumni get-to-gethers stag, as in tho past. A motion was passed to the effect that the various gatherings in the fraternity' houses lie held between the hours of seven and eight-fifteen on Saturday evening of the week of the reunion in order Hint they may not in terfere with the big smoker which will be held in the Armory, beginning at the latter hour.

Welty; Professor A. 11, Espenshade, registrar; and J. M. McKee. The preliminary work for the cam. paign has resulted in a securely bound alumni organization for every county in the state, an accomplishment that in itself is well worth while. In some counties where there are only a few alumni, they have been linked up with others. A mailing list of prominent people throughout the state who should be in. torested in Penn Stale is being gradu. ally prepared and should contain more than 15.000 names by tho end of Sep tember . Publicity pamphlets, letters, and the “PonnStatc Pictorial,” tho now weekly picture paper, are being sent to the persons whose names are in this list. Alumni not nttsiehod to the cam paign organization tiro giving valuable aid to the success of the endeavor by sending names for this list to the of fice of President Thomas.

Lane ’23, President of the Student Council and general chairman of the Student Drive, pointed out. “is it not quite logical to believe that before we can prevail upon our friends to sub scribe to such a cause, we who are most vitally interested in the college must stamp tlie campaign with our mark of aproval? It was shown at the Rime meeting that since Varsity Hall has been assured by popular subscriptions among alumni who were formerly athletes at the col leg. together with a few friends, and the new Hospital by the spontaneous gen erosity of the Pennsylvania Potato Growers’ Association, and one of the residence units by the gift of tlie Poul try Raisers’ Association of the State, the Penn State Union, or Social Hall, remains as tlie logical part of the pro gram for the students to build. The Penn State Union will stand as a concrete ex ample of Potm State’s democratic spir it, and will be the common meeting place for all students. It will be the one build ing on the campus where the students tnay gather and discuss their problems and those of the college, and where ev eryone will have an opportunity to ac quire that social ease which comes only through constant contact with other men.
