he will be seen with a sign reading:
“I Think You’re Kidding Me.” which

In more than one Instance fresh

same system of honor prevails in the

WINNER OF LETTER
ANNOUNCED

student body two weeks ago and a
score of letters were submitted for ex
amination.
By the rules of the contest, each freg
ularly enrolled student of the college
could submit two letters one to each
senator. The merits of the various let
ters were to be judged on of
neatness, thoroughness in covering the
subject along all lines suggested, accur
acy, and brevity. A limit j<Jf ioh'4 .Hun
dred wonts to the letter was advised
by Mr. Lvderer. The judges appointed
were: Dean A. R. Warnock, G. T. Gra
ham, President of the Chamber of Com
merce; and E. D. Schlve, Editor-in-chief
of the Penn Suite COLLEGIAN.
I In the announcement of the results,
honorable mention was awarded to J.
E. Ryder '25. I\ G. Kosel '25; and C. W.
Kimball *2*s. "The general results of
the contest were disappointing, both
from the standpoint of quantity and
quality. Many of the letters submit
ted showed a deplorable lack of know-,
lodge and of appreciation of the ele
ments of a good letter.” This was : tlie
way one of the judges characterized ‘the!
contest.
The winners of the prizes will receive
their reward by applying at the office
of the COLLEGIAN.

evidence at times during tho game with
Dickinson last Saturday, was noticeable
to u much greater extent in .practice
this week, and, if tho Lions hit their
stride tomorrow, the spectators will be
treated to some clover, floor work. The
Xittany mentor , has laid great stress
on the necessity of short, accurate pas
sing and . the engers will resort to It
almost entirely in tomorrow’s game as
the Pitt defense Is one which will call
for extra good passing.
The Penn State iiue-up will be Ident
ical to that which opened tho lost gome,
namely, Reed and Gerhardt, forwards,
Shair, center, and Koehler and Loeffler,
guards. This combination continues to
go better than any of the others which
Coach Hormunn is trying out, although
several second string men have :v been
showing exceptional individual ability
during the post week and will probably
be given a chance to displny their warfes
in tomorrow's encounter. One of these
men, “Andy" Shaner, forward on last
year's freshman team, has been shifted
to guard on the second varsity combi
nation and is allowing such unusual ab
ility in that position that he will prob
ably be given a chance to break Into
some of the gumos before the season
closes. Flxter, Stuckeman, Huber, Mar
shall and Wilson continue to do good
work in the evening practice sessions
and will if possible, be given a chance
to match their skill wilh’tHS Fa’fitß'eiKi.

a medical advisor, and several train
ers. The personnel of the team that
will oppose the Blue and White men
will be as follows: Kays will fight
in the 115 pound class; Grlflith at
125 pounds; Kurtz will contend for
the. 135 pound title; Leach will enter
at 145 pounds; Lyon will box at 160
pounds; Captain O'Regan will don the
mitts at 175 pounds; and Mathews
will lie the.-middy * contender in the
heavyweight bout.
Review the record that - some oi
these leather pushers have made fov;
themselves! The squad has throe j
letter men in tho persons of O'Rogan, I
Malhows. and I .each. O'Regan, the
captain, made his first appeftmee In
1 the ring as a sailor. This is tho sec
ond season of battling for Muthoivs
and Leach, both of whom starred Jn
the meet held last year against tho
combined colleges of Canada. At innl
jtlmc, the University of. Toronto and
. McGill University combined forces
laud invaded ‘Annapolis' for the, avowed
I purpose of taking over the salt-water
artists. Mathews and Jxiach finished
ihelr opponents- in short style by the
IC. O. route. The remainder of the
S squad on the - training tabic have
earned tholr secondary letters in the
sport amt .ire making a strong bid for
higher rating.
Xittany Entries Undecided
Coach Houck fully realizes the
portent of the coming hattle and will
wait until tonight before naming those
who will enter the ring for the Lion.
This is in order that he may choose
boxers that are in the very best of;
condition. Tho Blue and White chnnc--
es for victory in the 145-pound section
received a severe blow when Captain
Bordner withdrew, for he was Houck's
mainstay in that division. * The Penn
Slate captain will be foroed to purse
his injured fool along for at least tt
month yet, and mny not be able to
enter the Army meet.
Competition Among llft-Poundcrs
The 115-pound class will fall to
either Tail or Kaiser, depending on
which one is in better condition. On j
: account of the large number of con- j
tenders for the lightweight honor, the 1
; competition in that division has been j
exceedingly severe, and a number oi
excellent prospects have arisen. A
mong the 115-pounders, the Rothrock
twins have reported for practice daily,
displaying very good form, but kick
ing sufficient strength to win the hon
or of representing the Lion in the
coming fistic struggle. Zimmerman,
another 115-pound contender, must
improve his form before he can win a
varsity berth.
Wirt. is practically sure of entering;
the ring ns 125-pound representative:
for Penn gtnte, us Zeig, his*most per
sistent rival, has failed to report dur
ing the last few days’.
. The Xittany boxing mentor is bless
ed with four ; good boxers competing
as 135-pounders. Of these it is prob
able that either Young or , O'Donnell
will face the Navy tomorrow after
noon. Hagenbuch has exhibited first
rate .boxing ability but has been hin
dered by illness, while Elsler’s studies
have marred a record that his good
form had established among the wel
terweights.
Zerbe is showing superior form over
living in the 145-pound competition,
and It is probable that ho wilt bo chos
ion to box Leach tomorrow. ' .
In the 160-pound* class, Weiss or
Johnson will occupy the Blue and
White corner at tomorrow’s struggle.
P.'erce is barred'because of an injured
foot. Both Weiss and Johnson have
demonstrated ability In tho ring, with
Weiss having a possible lead. It is

“SPIRIT WEEK” NAMED
TO REVIVE OLD CUSTOMS

h;m boon declining ho fast within the
last year.
A number of novel plans for pre
senting the movement to the student
body have been worked out by tho
committee to stimulate interest in;
eluding a series of attractive posters
and n. pamphlet that wilt be distribut
ed among the students during the
coming week. The Department of
English has agreed to support the
observance of “Spirit Week" by hav
ing each freshman write a theme on
“Penn State Spirit" for class-room
credit, and the sophomores will be
asked to stage a "Spirit Stunt” dur
ing some noon hour that would be
symbolic of Penn -State spirit so that
the Idea may bo brought out moro
strongly.
Student Council does not expect
a sudden outburst of spirit that will
last for only a few . weeks and then
die out again ns a result of this cam
paign. It merely wishes to got the
cooperation of each student in re
storing the friendly and democratic
"Hello” that has been characteristic
of Penn State for so long and in en
forcing a stricter observance of the
written and unwritten customs that
have been instrumental in making
Penn State what it is today.
