NITTANY BOOTERS
FACE HARD BATTLE
Outlook for Blue and White Booters
Becomes Gloomy as Final Struggle
With Haverford Looms Near
The fourth undefeated Penn State
soccer team faces the crisis of its ex
istence tomorrow afternoon at one
o'clock when the Haverford booters will
do all in their power to ruin the Lion's
hope of coming through four consecu
tive seasons of soccer, without a de
feat. With the loss of McVaugh from
the iKicktield on account of sickness, a
cloud has appeared on the Xittuny ho
rizon and the atmosphere grows murkier
witli the ominous shadow of the for
midable Scarlet and Black aggregation.
Outlook Gloomy
Without a doubt, the Lion will be
comjHdied to put forth the lust ounce of
ids strength if he hopes to defeat the
Haverford soceerltcs tomorrow. Mc-
Vaugh has been taken down with sick
ness since the Navy battle and will be
unable to play und coach Keeuleyside
is faced with the choice of moving
"Andy" Warner from inside left to Mc-
Vaugh's position os right fullback, thus
weakening the forward line, or of sub
stituting Edgerton In the right fullback
berth. Otherwise the line-up will be the
some as for the Navy game.
Haverford Powerful
Haverford soccer is of the same high
quality this fall that has brought the
main line Quakers several intercolleg
iate championships in the past. Last
year was one of the poorest years in
their soccer history, when they were
tied for third place with Penn and Har
vard, Princeton winning first. This
year Princeton has been practically
eliminated by the wide margin defeat
at the hands of Cornell, although the
Orange and Black handed Haverford a
totally unexpected defeat, 4-0, this fall
and has placed the Quakers in a posi-

Old Chapel. The dogs were husky fel

considerable territory through pine cov

After wo struck tho Yukon River
and had traveled toward the interior of
Alaska we were able to see wiiat a
great work Doctor Chapman has
wrought in that region. The Indians
and Eskimua formerly lived in under
ground huts which were dark and un

these old dwellings, for the natives have
constructed log cabins with an abund
ance of ventilation.
There are two railroads which enter
this northern territory and they mark

secure admittance to the league several
times but has been refused on account
of her out-of-the-way situation.
In the first two games of the season.
Haverford tied Yule and Cornell, al

tho latter teams. The University of

McPeet has instituted and maintained
practice of the most strenuous type
this fall in preparation for the struggle

DEBATERS HAVE HARD
SCHEDULE THIS YEAR
Two Triangular and Four Single
Debates Arranged--Succsesful
Season Anticipated
Two triangular debates, four single
debates, and a jiossible tour of the North
and East is the schedule for the Penn
State debating team this year., The
forecast for the sttcces of the team *is
cheerful for this year according to Pro
fessor T. J. Gates, coach, since a large
number of men are out for the team ami
debates have been scheduled with some
of the best college teams in tho country.
Two questions are to be argued this
year. They are as follows: I. “Re
solved that the United States and the
several suites should establish industri
al courts analogous In principle to the
Kansas Industrial court.”
11. “Resolved that the Towner-Sterl.
ing Education Bill should be enacted
intio a law.”
Tho first debate of the year is to be
held December sixth, and is a triangu
lar debate between the University ol
Pittsburgh, Washington and Jefferson,
and Penn State. The first question is
to be used and will undoubtedly attract
considerable attention, the affirmative
team debating here, while the negative
team travels. The following two de
bates will be single debates held respec
tively with North Dakota Agricultural
College and The University of Maryland,
the first to be held at Penn State and
the second at College Park, Maryland.
Ptenn State is also to debate in a tri
angular argument with Dickinson Col
lege and Buoknell University. Tentative
arrangements have also been made with
Colgate University and with the George
Washington University.
The tour of *be North .and East Is
still indefinite, but will probably be made
between March twenty-eighth and April
fifth. About five universities will be
met on this tour, ami the debates will
be rather in tile nature of an intersec
tional contest.
The team itself is rapidly shaping into
a well-trained machine and a out will
be made before the end of the week.
This final cut will bring the squad down
to twelve or fourteen men and will
make a more widely aggregation from
which the coach can choose a team.
More than ordinary interest is being
displayed in debating this year as is
shown by the size of the squad includ
ed in which are a few freshmen who
are doing well. While certain men
have shown up belter than others so
far, Profesor Oates has not ns 1 yet
named a possible line-up.
STUDENT VOLUNTEERS TO

LIVELY MASS MEETING
i IS HELD FOR FOOTBALL
AND SOCCER CONTESTS
Coaches Bezdek and Keenleyside
Comment on Outcome of
Tomorrow’s Games
Howling for the scalp of Penn and
Haverford next Saturday, the loyal sup
porters of the Nittuny Lion again
showed their spirit and enthusiasm at
the mass meeting last Wednesday night.
The Auditorium, which was crowded'
even to llonr spare, reverberated time:
ami again to the cheers of the crowd as
•T.ez", Keenleyside. Captain Harral ot:
the soccer team, ami "Tiny” McMahon'
spoke cm Saturday’s game. Each man
seemed secure iu the faith that Penn
State would again come home with the.
proverbial “bacon".
The first number on the program for
the evening was a selection by the
Glee Club, which was so heartily re
ceived by the crowd that the vavsity
quartet had to be sent in as reinforce
ments. However, ns l.he first notes of
the singing were heard, the team en
tered and the music died un unnatural
and premature death.
Coach Keenleyside, of the »>ceeri
squad, was the first speaker on the pro
gram, ami explained that it was his ;
honest opinion that the enthusiasm 1
shown to the soccer team at the last!
muss meeting was the deciding factor'
in the game with tite Navy last week.
He explained that the game next Sat
urday is an im|H)rtant one in that Hav
erford has one of the foremost teams in
the country, and is also a member of
the Intercollegiate Soccer League, und
will be an excellent opportunity for see
ing what status IVnn State would have
in this league. Captain Harral also
sjmke of the great effect the cheering
at the last mass meeting had on the
playing -of the team ami pointed out
that while the Blue and While team
has been considerably shattered by sick
ness and injuries, there is every reason
to supim.se that Penn Slate will come
out on tite “long end” tomorrow.
Tiie meeting was then devoted to foot
ball. Captain "NVwsh" Uentz was found
to be nltscnt. The reason came from
"He/.". Captain Lentz was afraid, of
being a jinx. It seems that Lentz was
not accustomed to attending the mass
meetings last year, ami Penn State
won. When he went to the mass meet.
Ing preceding the Navy game, the fates j
frowned. “Lez" Is tr >t superstitious, but 1
when "Xowsh" suggested that perhaps,
lie had better stay away this time, the
roach agreed that the gods should not
be goaded too far. Lezdek then empha
sized the importance of winning to
morrow's tussle, and tite meeting closet!
with tite singing of the Alma Mater.
