Page Four Between the Lions with The Sports Editor This may be September 15 to most people, the beginning of another social season to the New York "deb," or just another day to the boys at Rockviow,•but to every sports-minded Penn Stater it means the opening of another football season—that period of the year when the eyes of every sports fan are focused on hundreds of college gridirons. There's a new gleam in the eyes of the alumni these days and new hope in their hearts They may "remember November," but September means a new chance for their favorite eleven to "go to town." And so, they never lose hope that from the fifty or sixty boys sweating in the early September sun there will emerge a team that will take its place unashamedly with the great elevens of the past All of which brings us to the tale of Bob Higgins and those fifty- odd candidates going through their paces on New Beaver Field. Fifty candidates don't seem like Many'eompared to Haryard's 125 or Notre Dame's 160, but the significant point is that nearly every man counted upon for this year's squad came back. 'And every man came back full of enthusiasm and spirit for another season and another opportunity to give Penn State a winning combination, although the schedule calls for tilts with such bonc.:bruising opponents as COlgate, Temple, and Harvard And though it's no easy task to build a team from last year's wreckage Bob Higgins and his aides are imbued.with the same inspiration to "go places" before that game at Temple November 12 brings this short season to a close Looking at things objectively, the aspect is anything but rosy. Al- though Flood, Rose, and sonic other sophomore candidates contribute eassuring poundage, the team, as a whole, is still a "lightweight" eleven Graduation and ineligibility have taken a heavy toll of the backfield men, particularly. On the other hand; our main opponents are heavy, ex- perienced teams; two of them, at least, Harvard and Colgate, ranked with the East's best in last year's campaign. Yet, we can't help but feel op- timistic about this year's Lion eleven. We still believe last year's team didn't reach its best form until that Post-season contest with Lehigh And there's every reason to hope that the returning veterans will quickly regain the condition that enabled them to run roughshod over the be- wildered Brown and White Our Opponents Coach Hooks Mylin is finding his greatest trouble in rebuilding his forward wall, which was severely depleted by graduation. Feuer and Light, ball-toting veterans, should just about solve backfield worries Although most of last year's strong Yellowjacket eleven is back to. the wars for this campaign, Coach Frank Wolf has plenty to worry about, as the new freshman material, product of the new non-scholarship era, will have difficulty in stopping up the gaps Following a two-day coaching conference, the Crimson was ready to begin active drill among its 125 gridiron aspirants today. Head Coach Eddie Casey would probably trade a hundred of this number, however, if lie could have Barry Wood back With a squad similar in size to that of the Lions, Coach Vic Hanson i g Tiger Joe Moran's line-smashfng will again be a help in the backfield Sewance promises to be the year's mystery team on the Lion sched ule. Little is known about the eleven from the South except that their captain suffered an injury this summer which will keep him off the grid- iron for this season, at least Forty Owl gridmen have been practicing for the last week and are already showing mid-season form. This year's Cherry and White eleven is likely to be even heavier than last year's A good forward-passing attack makes it doubly formidable to its opponents. This and That Just to prove that all 1932 graduate; do not come back to hang around the Corner, Al Lewis went out and grabbed himself a job as box ing coach at W. & J.. . .

B GRIDDER VETERANS DISPLAY SKILL IN PRACTICE —o— (Continued from page one) and Kohut broke into the lineup as understudies to Lasich last year. Woolbert, 200-pound sophomore has been shifted from center, a position he filled on the yearling eleven, to fullback, where he played in high school. Skemp, another sophomore, was regular fullback on the fresh man team. Tackles present the biggest prob lem to Higgins, since Stempeck and McMillen, last year's regulars, were both lost by graduation. Parker Berry and "King" Cole, their. under studies in 1931, head the list of can didates but are receiving plenty of competition from Bob Flood, 233- pound sophomore, Earl Park, another sophomore who tips the scales at 200 pounds, Seaver Rose, 240-pound sopho more, and Lou Kreizman, also a sophomore, who won his spurs at the position as a freshman last fall. Ends Experienced With four experienced ends in the fold, the Nittany coach is probably least conecrned with the wings. Grimshaw, Brewster, Slusser and Ro senberg won major letters last' fall and are out to repeat while Buck Mc-. Kee, a member of the 1930 freshman team, has been, shifted from tackle to end and is teaming up with Heist and Johnny McAndrews to push the veterans. Tony Bedoski, Fred Kane and Marty Hesch arc veterans who are vicing for the guard posts. Del Al len and Everett Johnson, sophomores, and Joe Korengo, junior, are other candidates who will be heard from. Higgins Has Centers Two experienced centers case Bob's problem somewhat. "Andy" Ander son and Stan Zawacki are the leading candidates for the snapper-back posi tion with Rich, a junior, also showing up well. All-American Joe Bedenk is back to coach the linemen and Leslie takes the place of "Dutch" Ilerniann as backfield coach. Nelson Walke, Gil bert Loebs and Dr. Elwood Davis are working with the varsity at the pres ent time, but will shift their atten tion to the freshman squad. Chili.lic Speidel is.again serving as trainer. 7 FRATERNITIES LOSE $lOO . IN. : ROBBERIES.
