HARD GAME WITH
PITT NEXT WEEK
Penn Slate Coaches Are Rounding
Niltany Machine into Shape
for Annual Tussle
both elevens reported
IN GOOD PHYSICAL TRIM
Pitt Has Gone Through Difficult
Season—Team Is Hitting Best
Stride at Present
With the last game of the 192-' foul
-O.IH season, the big annual Turkey Day
clash with I'ict on Forbes Field, looming
up as the hardest contest of the year
for Penn State's gridiron warriors.
Coach IJezdek and his assistants are
busily grooming the Xittany Uon for
a gruelling tussle with the Panther
when these two beasts of the jungle
take the Held of battle next Thursday
afternoon.
While the Thanksgiving Day game
will bring the regular season to a close
for both Penn State and Pitt, it will
not make the end of hostilities for eith
er team as the Panthers are slated to go
to San Francisco to meet Leland Stan
ford in the latter’s big stadium on De
cember thirtieth, while the Xittany Li
ons will probably be in western terri
tory at the same time, although an op
ponent for Penn Suite in the post
season game has not yet been decided
upon.
A territlic battle is looked for on
Korbes Field next week. The Wurner
ites have gone through u hard season
thus far, having nothing easy since
their opening encounter with the Uni
versity of Cincinnati. The chief task
which the Pitt coaches face at present
it to keep the men keyed up to the
proper pitch—something it is not easy
to do. Tile excellent showing made by
the Panthers in the W\ and J. tangle
last Saturday indicates that they are
primed to the utmost. Xo grid team
has ever been known to go through a
full season without a letdown at some
stage, ami Warner is working with
might and main in order to keep his
charges from slowing up on the eve of
the Thanksgiving fracas.
In view of the fact that Pitt has nev
er fulled to put additional tight into
the annual fray with Penn Suite, Coach
Bezdek is anticipating the hardest
game of the entire season next Thurs
day. The nexi ten days rest period
before lining up against Warner’s pro
teges gives the Xittany coaches an op-
portunity to round the Penn State ma
chine into form. The grid mentor or
dered a complete day of rest on Monday
as a reward fur the splendid showing
made against the strong Penn eleven
last Saturday. On Tuesday, however,
the-men returned to the daily grind
and since then have been putting in
some strenuous work.
. Numerous plays of intricate and
tricky character are being devised
Which will test the reported strength
of .the Panther. In addition to creat
ing new plays, “Bez” has attempted to
speed up the Xittany offense and bol
ster the defense with a view toward
causing as much trouble as possible
for the Piu outiit m week.
The Xittany team, os a whole, is in
EOOd physical condition. “Dutch” lie
dank is rapidly recovering from the in
jury he received in last Saturday’s
Same and may be counted upon to dis
play his usual fine brand of football in
ihe Thanksgiving clash. Other mem
tors of the squad are suffering from
minor injuries, but none of them are of
serious enough nature to prevent the
"“n from entering the Pitt game if
Jhej are needed. No material
teve occured in the Penn State line-up

AUTOMOBILE MEN
WILL AID CAMPAIGN
Pennsylvania Automotive Asso
ciation Pledge Support to
Development Plan
NON-ALUMNI SUPPORTERS
INCREASING IN NUMBERS
Thus far, this week has been a very
good one in the emergency building
fund campaign. The steady stream of
subscriptions has been continuing, the
receipts at campuign headquarters var-
ying from four to seventeen thousand
dollars a duy. Monday was the second
best since the days of the student cam
paign when pledges totaling $17,042
passed over the desk of Professor A.
H. Espenshade, now vice-dircetor of
the campaign. The previous record for
one day's mail was over $34,000. No
olHcial report on the fund total has been
made since Monday when $701,347.43
was recorded.
President Thomas received great sup
port and encouragement on Tuesday
when he addressed the convention of the
Pennsylvania Automotive Association,
a group of automobile men. They passed
resolutions supporting the Penn State
development plan and started a sub
scription for the fund in the light of the
: great service which Penn State rendersj
1 the industries of the state. :
More non-alumni are supporting the]
Penn Suite drive every day. Facultyj
; campaign Held workers are turning in j
1 favorable reports every day, and.it is not
ed that people who have never been at
tached to the college arc among the
most generous supporters of the drive.
In many counties the alumni. are be
ginning to get more active than ever
before, and a steady increase in the
fund is expected from this time on.
The campaign has been featured in the
past few days by Sullivan county going
over the top with its quota, the third
county to complete Its drive. Cumbria
and Adams are the only other counties
that have raised their quotas to date,
but in all of these counties they are
still gathering subscriptions. Cumbria
and Sullivan are now about twenty
per cent over-subscribed, and the good
work is continuing.
There were eighty-eight members of
the "Penn State $1001) Club”, in u report
given yesterday from campaign head
quarters. This "club” is composed of
inon or organizations who huve pledged
$lOOO or more to the fund. Three of
these have pledged $15,000 each and
two others $lO,OOO each. There are two
for $5OOO and six for $3OOO. Member
ship in this “club” has been increasing
rapidly during the pust few weeks.
The latest member to join this “club”
is F. A. Dalburg *O6, whose $l5OO pledge
arrived yesterday from Maracaibo, Ven
ezuela, where he Is connected with the
Standard'Oll. Company.
A former faculty member of Penn
State to whom Professor Espenahade
lust week sent some of tho campaign
publicity material, responded yester
day with a check for $lOO, indicative of
the favorable light In which Penn Stute
is held by non-alumni. Part of the
letter follows
“Although not an ulumnus of Penn
State ray several years’ connection with
the college and experiment station gen
erated In me an attachment for the
Old Centre County institution, which is
only second to that for ray own Almu
Muter. I take pleasure, therefore, in
enclosing a check for $lOO us my con
tribution to the Penn State College
emergency building fund.”
OFFICERS ARE ELECTED
FOR FROSH “Y” CABINET
The. permanent oincers for the fresh
, man Y. M. C. A. Cabinet were elected
on the evening of Wednesday, November
sixteenth, at the University Club. Tem
porary officers have been in charge of
the afTairs of the cabinet for some time,
and considerable success is being at
tained by the members of the new organ
ization.
The officers elected were as follows:
President. D. D. Henry '26; Vice-Presi
dent, J. It. Dunlap '26; Secretary, C. D.
Seaman '26; Treasurer, G. L. Guy '26.
Plans were also made for the three
parties that were held under the aus
pices of the cabinet last Friday night.
These parties are the beginning of a
series of thirties to be given throughout
the. year. In this work the freshman
cabinet is cooperating with the senior
cabinet. These parties are chiefly for
those interested in “Y” work and serve
as a means of the men’s getting bette
acquainted with each other.

available from which to pick a team
to' represent that class in the annual
sophomoreJfreshmen class scrap on
December ninth, Coach D. D. Detar is
busily engaged trying to locate second
year men to fill the vacancies in the
sophomore division.
.The greatest difficulty lies in the in
ability to find men to fill the one hun
dred and sevety-five pound and heavy
weight berths. It is essential that
these men be obtained as soon as pos
sible as the trials for the scrap will
take place on December fourth to sixth

PROGRAM SCHEDULED TO
BEGIN AT 8:00 O’CLOCK
Charles Wakefield Cadman, the well
known American composer of "From j
the Land of the Sky-Blue Water" and
"At Dawning”, will appear in -the Audi-!
torium tomorrow evening at eight

thousands all over America who admire
the work of this popular song writer
and Princess Tsianina. the Indian Sing-1
er who will appear with him. these two!
artists will need no introduction, as
their names have been identified with a
big movement for American opera and
chamber music for a number of years.
Although Cadman is best known to
the general public for his songs and bal
lads. he nevertheless stands high in
general composition and has written!
in every form, from teaching pieces forj
children to operas and symphonic
works. His lastost opera, "A Witch of
Salem", based on the Now England his
torical episode of 1692. will be produced
in Now York in the near future, and is
expeoted to have as successful a run
as "ShanewLs” enjoyed for two consec
utive seasons.
In addition to these operas, Cadman
has been widely represented by his
choral compositions, "The Sunset Trull"
"The Morning of the Year”, and "The
\ ision of Sir Launfai". At the present
time, this composer has more than three
hundred published works to his credit.
Cadman is more fortunate than most
composers in that it is possible for him
to adequately present his own composi
tions in concert- He has a vigorous
style and a technique suited to his own
piano numbers and songs, and, accord
ing to the critics, a convincing and col
orful tone-production.

legiate Engineers
Well pleased with the success of the
exhibit on Pennsylvania Day, the en
gineers are now instituting a move
ment for the formation of an organiza
tion of all engineers which will carry
on from year to year and take charge of
such activities as the recent exhibit.
At a meeting Wednesday evening of
representatives of each of the engineer
ing departments, the committee in
charge of working up preliminary plans
for the formation of this organization,
reported that plans were progressing
favorably and that they were in touch
with the National Association of Colleg
iate Engineers with the view of aflHi
ating with them.
This organization is similar in form
to that In other Engineering Schools,!
a tentative program for which is soon
to be submitted to a meeting of the
heads of the engineering departments.
The National Association of Collegiate
Engineers has chapters in a large
number of engineering schools, each
local chapter having as Us aim the
fostering of a spirit to advance the
school and Us engineers by .promoUng
such activities as tend to broaden;!the
engineering student. The 'purpose'is
in accordance with the desires of the
engineering students at this time, and
will undoubtedly be of great benefit to
the carrying out of such activities as
are put on from time to time in the
normal course of the college year.

Last Friday Afternoon

UNTIL DECEMBER 12
Professional Baseball World Makes
Tempting Offers But Bezdek
Refuses to Answer
Despite the tempting offers which
William F. Baker, president of the Phil
adelphia Nationals, has repeatedly made
to Hugo Bezdek for managing the Phil
lies for the next three years, the Nit
tany mentor was still undecided after
a conference with the big league presi
dent last Friday afternoon.
Complying with an urgent invitation
from President Baker, “Bez” consented
to call upon him while he was in Phil
adelphia last week-end with the team
and the baseball world fully expected
to hear of some agreement being
reached at that meeting. But, while
"Bcz" was admittedly pleased and sat
isfied with the offers which the Phillies
made him at that time, he still refuses
to commit himself one way or the oth

For that reason. President Baker has

“AUCE-SIT-BY-THE-FIRE”
TO BE STAGED TONIGHT
James M. Barrie’s Popular Comedy
Will Be Interpreted by Star
Cast of Players
Tonight in the Auditorium at eight
llfteen the curtain will rise on the first
super Player production of the Season,
’’Alice-Sit-By-Thc-Fire", the very
popular comedy by Sir James M. Barrie.
The play. was secured after much
trouble In obtaining an amateur release
and nothing has heen spared in giving
it a real touch of professionalism. The!
characters in the various roles are in- 1
terpreted by: j
Colonel Gray C. J. O'Donnel ’24 j
Mrs. Grey .Mary Butcher *2g!
Amy Grey Kuthannn Sharpless '23 j
Cosmo Grey B. B. Knhan *25
Hughes Roll.) Austin Blakeslee *22
Mary Ferguson '24;
lamora Dunbar Henrietta Stickman *25
Richardson Miriam Ray '26
Annie Josephine Cronner '26
Mr. A. C. Cloetingh, the director, has
been very fortunate in securing such a
thoroughly able cast. Never before have
the minors of a play been carried by
such strong players. The leads of the
play, O'Donnel and Miss Butcher, have
fallen readily into the whimsical spirit
of the lines, and their interpretation is
elderly executod.
The roles of the Colonel and Alice,
which are so delightfully depicted, are
presented after a fashion which is very
true to life. The secondary roles of
Rolio and Amy furnish exceptionally
strong backing for the leads. These
characters are portrayed by Austin
Blakeslee and Miss Ruthanna Sharpless
In a manner that is commendable to
any amateur stage. The remaining cast
fill In admirably, resulting In one of the
best performances that has ever been
presented in the Auditorium.
Tickets will be on sale at the box
office before the performance, and are
priced at fifty and seventy-five cents.

BATTLE ON OLD BEAVER
AT ONE-THIRTY O’CLOCK
Old Beaver Field will be the scene of
the first annual Sophomore-Freshman
Sand Scrap tomorrow afternoon at one
thirty. This scrap has been substituted
for the Push-Ball Scrap which was
eliminated because of the Inability to
obtain a bladder for the ball. This new
sand scrap will continue to be an anu
ual event until the push-ball is again
replaced in a serviceable condition.
Following a commlttco meeting last
Tuesday evening the details of the
scrap were made known, and are to
be conducted as follows:
Twenty cement bags will be filled
with dirt and sand and placed on the
fifty yard line of Old Beaver Field.
Sophomores and freshmen will be por
tioned Into two groups of fifty each
and take their stations at either end of
the gridiron. At a given signal these
groups will rush to mid-field and en
deavor to carry the bags to their res
pective goal lines.
At the end of a five minute period a
shotgun will announce the close of the
first heat and will summon the partici
pants from the field. Recorders will
then proceeed to take tally of the!
yardage gained by both sides. For ev j
ery five yards gained in advancing a*
bag toward their original goal line .that]
side will be credited with one point.
If a bag lies within the fifty and forty
five yard lines it is to constitute one (1)1
point in the final tally. j
The boundary lines will be the same!
as now* exist on the regular football!
gridiron, afid all bugs lying out-of-‘
bounds will not be counted. There will!
be as many heats run off as there are'
sophomores present to constitute al
team of fifty men. It is the desire of
the committee, however, to run at least
three heats.
Nn member will be permitted to enter
the scrap if he is not properly equipped
witli tennis shoes, and all are urged to
be on hand at one o’clock sharp.
