By means of tomorrow's encounter the Lion strategist will be able to ob serve the strength - or weakness of has pupils and, at the same time, groom them for the season's opening clash with Lebanon Valley next week. Ac cording to Bee only straight line plays, with an occasional end run, will be used by both elevens. The Nittany warriors received their first taste of rainy weather last Wednesday when, after a heavy dri7zle, they were forced to scrim mage on the muddy practice field. Backfield men encountered consider able difficulty in holding the slippery ball while the heavy linemen were slow in moving into position. Probable Line-ups Although not yet definitely deter mined, it is probable that team A will cram the game with few changes in its make-up George Delp, letter man last year, will sea e at left end while Skip Stahley, speedy junior, will be his running mate. Ralph Rickel and Cal Shawley, both two hundred pounders, are in fine form and should experience little trouble in retaining thlir tackle berths.

Three husky juniors, namely, Eschbach, McAndrews and Parana, have been waging tight battles for the position without either gaining a decided edge.

Experienced Team After one day of fundamentals the fiist scrimmage was held and the hopes of the hooter coach were upheld in expecting an experienced team to be on the field. A new find was un- covered during the scrimmage in Kichline, a sophomore playing half back. The return of Seriy to the team also served to give added strength to the attack. First indications from the scrimmage seemed to indicate that he had lost none of his ability through not playing last year • In the scrimmages Harvey has been playing Cherry's position, full back, with Grammer filling inside right, left vacant by Guinn and Skinnell taking Jacobson's position at out. side sight With the exception of Roma°, all vanity inert have returned to the squad and it is expected that he will report the first past of next week.
