VICTORY IN DEFEAT
•It is never the policy of a Penn State student to offer an alibi for
a defeat which his team might have suffered at the hands of some
other team; a Blue and White team never makes an excuse for losing
a contest; the Lion is among the first to give deserved credit to a win
ning foe. For these reasons. Penn State praises the Naval Academy
for the team which battled the Lion eleven in Washington last Friday
and asserts that the middy team was the best that it has met this sea
son. Also that the Navy team played just as good foothall as did the
Blue and White warriors, but they did not deserve to win by fourteen
points. Let the statement be explained.
Penn State fought its hardest last Friday against a team that out
weighed it, and it lost mainly because the “breaks” of the game were
in favor of the midshipmen. From the statistics of the game, it can be
seen that the Penn State team gained more yardage in scrimmage and
forward passing than did their opponents; through which they were
unable to gain consistently. A fumble proved costly and the punt
ing of Cullen kept the Nittany team from the Navy goal. It was a
game of fortune, in which the Dame smiled upon the sailors.
The midshipmen played an excellent game and had a team which
Penn State could hardly hope to defeat. They fought in a clean-cut
manner and put forth their greatest energy in every play. Always
they were on the alert and they have been well rewarded for their ef
forts. Penn State can be proud of losing to such a foe.
A WORD ABOUT THE TEAM
The student body has no cause for being disheartened about the
score of Friday’s game. This statement does not anticipate such an at
titude, but is made as a tribute to a Blue and White team that can be
measured according to the Nittany standards of the past and in no way
found wanting.
The line held like a concrete wall throughout the game. Only on
a very few occasions were the Navy backs able to gain more than three
yards. It repeatedly made holes through the heavier opposing line
for the Penn State backs and fought desperately against Fate as few
other teams have. The two substitutes, McCoy and Logue, strove with
their teammates like veterans and gave a good account of themselves.
McMahon broke through and blocked a kick on one occasion and check
ed the Navy advance at several other times. Bedenk and Bentz bore
the brunt of many an assault and gave no encouragement to the mid
dies. They seemer imbued with the spirit of "They Shall Not Pass.”
Hamilton started the game as a convalescent and stuck to his post
throughout the battle. He was another important unit in the defense
which he helped maintain, although suffering from injuries. Hufford
did not sponsor any flashy plays, but he was steady and reliable, doing
his share in every period.
The backfiefd performed miracles when conditions arc considered.
Lafferty played for the first time on a varsity eleven in a big game
and gained at least one yard whenever called upon to carry the ball
and more than once he made four or five yards. He proved to be a
demon in attack and a boulder in defense. Kratz cannot claim as much
yardage gained but he should be credited with the same attributes. On
more than one occasion his work was commented upon favorably by
sport critics. He bucked the line with a force and stubborn persist
ence that brought dread to those facing him. Palm was outpunted
and outgeneraled, but he did his best. No more can be expected of
him. Time and again, he hurled his weight against the Navy line in
a superhuman effort to pierce it; he called upon his muscles to give
their all in end runs and when tackling. He played a game worthy of
notice. Wilson, the veteran who starred for the first time in the Har
vard game last year and who has added fresh laurels to his brilliant
career ever since, proved to be the best ground gainer on the field.
Conroy, McKee, Taylor, Barchet, and Cullen were good., but they
could not equal the fast and determined Wilson who plowed through
the line at will. He of all others, was the outstanding player of the
day, and to him should go the credit for many of Penn State’s first
downs.
NOW IS THE TIME
With three hard eastern teams and a western eleven to be con
quered if the season is to a success, the student body is entrusted
with a sacred duty of which it should prove worthy. The outcome of
the last two games have been disappointing, but they were inevitable.
The eleven men that represented the college on these occasions and
who are scrimmaging every night under the expert coaching of Bczdek,
composed a team of which Penn State may well be proud. They have
acquitted themselves honorably on the field of battle. Now before
the next contest, they look for words of encouragement from their
classmates, who should not be slow in praising their efforts. Let
every student, faculty member, alumnus and friend of the college
stand back of those who are carrying the colors of Penn State and
cheer them on as they struggle for the glory of their Alma Mater.
FROSH IN THE IJMEUGHT
The showing that the freshman football team made against the
University of Pittsburgh freshmen last Saturday was a revelation to
the spectators of the game. The college has been slow in realizing the
worth of the yearlings and has failed to recognize their ability as
gridmen. "
Coach Hermann has developed a team that reflects no little credit
on himself. In the home games this season, they have shown them
selves to be far superior to any of the visiting aggregations. They
have decisively beaten their ancient foes in the best freshman football
games that have been seen on the campus in the last three years. If
they keep up the good work, Penn State may have some new varsity
material next year. 3
WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?
From the number of underclassmen that put in an appearance for
the tie-up scrap Saturday afternoon, it might be estimated that the col
!f£i PO f eSSC , S aboUt si , x hundred freshmen and approximately two
tU f d . r £ d s °P homores - Are customs getting so weak at Penn State
hTIF h f C “Pe" cI T CS are V, nable t 0 compel an attendance of at least
half of the underclass enrollment? The Student Tribunal is ready to
take action, and action should be taken. The names of all freshmen
l ndSOP u hO r r t eSWh ° fa " cd t 0 report on New Beaver Field for the
scrap should be reported and dealt with accordingly. To those few
sophomores who did report, the credit of victory is given, but to those
who did not report is allotted the discredit of placing a blot on their
class honor. The showing was deplorable. Ir

The luteivollegiato Prohibition As

college and university president in the
Putted Stales last March, asking an an
swer to the following questioin: "What
do the faculty and students of your in
stitution ami your acquaintances think
of prohibition in theory and in fact?”
"We desire your frank opinion." con
tinued the letter, "The I, P. A., has
always I for a scientific approach
to tiie problem, and in our contacts
with student agencies in other countries
will continue the same attitude. Wo
believe that those who ask the ques
tion have a right to know what the
ediieuted leadership hero thinks of the
great experiment now being made."
Penn Stale Replies
Replies to the letter were received
from If.S institutions of higher learning
in forty states. Penn Stale-being one
of the colleges to respond, through Dr.
E. E. Sparks who wrote as follows:
"Prohibiting the manufacture and
sale of intoxicating liquors In the U.
S. may have liven tine in large meas
ure to the industrial concern of manu
facturers and employers over Uto ef
fects of liquor upon efficiency of em
ployees; but to a degree it rests upon
ethical grounds. The American stud
ents, by their unceasing agitation In,
public speech and press, made popular
opinion long both industrial and ethical
lines. Their efforts had unquestionable
influence.
"Students realize that no law can be
enforced beyond the willingness of the
people to obey the law. Millions of
people did not favor the abolition of
slavery and it died out slowly under
tornts like compulsory labor and the
like. It will take some time for the
sentiment of nil the people to be In fa
vor of obeying the law abolishing liq
uors. College students as a body will
help to enforce R as they helped to se
cure it ”
