Between the Lions I

“Outweighed and outnumbered, ’ a well-drilled and fighting Penn

Bill Lohr, Harold Brewster, and the other leaders of the cause for the
Nittany Lions tired badly in the second half . . . State’s 13 points com

the great reserve strength of their powerful opponent. : Penn State can
well be as proud of this eleven as it was of that great team which last

juries that will keep them on the side
lines for a week or more, while Wool
bert received a gash on his head that
required three stitches.to close.
Meanwhile Harvard’s heavier line
men were constantly being replaced
by rdserves just as big and just os
powerful as the first stringers. The
pace told on the lighter Nittany team
and it was an exhausted Lion eleven
that fought off Harvard's second half
attack.
Captain “Spike” Collins came' into
his own against the Crimson.. Fifty
of the 125 yards gained by rushing
came from his nimble feet, he com
bined with' Bill Lohr’ on the most
successful Lion passing attack since
the season began, and played a defen
sive game that kept the Higginsmen
in the game throughout. t
Lohr, Brewster, Slusser, Cole and
Berry were the other standouts on the
Nittany side of the game. It wasn’t
a defeat to be ashamed of, rather it
an exhibition worthy of the. days of
Killinger, Wilson, Haines and Bedenk.
From “Eddie” Casey, coach of the
Harvard team, came worlds of praise
for the Lion gridmen. Casey is said;
to have upbraided his men at the half
time for their poor showing, telling
them that they had been outplayed in
every department of the game during
the. first two quarters, and after the
contest lauded the'fighting 1 qualities
of the Nittany Lions.

Cross Country, Freshman Grid Tearns
Complete Lengthy Practice Period
If preparedness is any indication,
the Lion varsity cross country and
freshman football teams can count
on winning seasons. Both teams will
open their, schedules here Saturday
after long weeks of practice.
Since the first days of Freshman
Week the yearling gridmen have been
drilling under Nels Walke’s tutelage.
Their weeks of training bore fruit
Saturday afternoon when they laugh

Harvard Soccermen Upset
Lions 3-to-l at Cambridge
Crimson Team Administers Nittany Booters’
First Defeat in 2 Years Saturday
By WILLIAM If. PKOTHERO ’3l
•Defeat is rather hard to administer to a Penn State soccer team, but
nevertheless, Harvard, working hard, and displaying a persistant and “just
got to. win” attack, turned back the Nittany Lion by a 3-to-l score, at Cam
bridge Saturday.
amateurish in the way they handled
the varsity “also-ran” team.
Coach Walke made innumerable
substitutions, using every man on'the
squad at least'once during the game.
Combinations and shifts of all sorts
were made in an effort to hit on the
most impregnable lineup possible for
the Pitt contest.
Rounding out three weeks of train
' ing, Lion cross country runners com
peted in time trials Saturday to de
termine the who’s who of the squad.
Curt Grcninger led the harriers to
the tape in 27 minutes 34 seconds.
Close behind Grcninger in the five
mile jaunt was Captain Charlie King;
followed by George Harvey, sopho
more runner, and Kenny England..
Bill Space gained fifth place leading
Clint Van Cise, Johnny Napoleon, and
Bill Rishel.
Nittany hill and dalers will be after
their seventh straight victory over Sy
racuse cross country teams in their
first meet of the season here Satur
day. Outstanding runners in the
time trials will probably be the en
trants in the Orange meet, Coach
Nate Cartmcl! has stated.

* It was the first defeat in two years,
for the Lion hooters, and although the
dope bucket was turned over for a
loop, the Crimson team emerged from
the battle with victory a fine evidence
to the success of perfect defensive
cooperation in the face of a clever and
strong offense by the Jeffrey-coached
machine.
Evans Scores
' For three periods the' Nittany hoot
ers carried the attack into the Har
vard territory' making attempt after
attempt at the goal, and were only
able to penetrate the defense once,
when Frank Evans scored after a clev
er bit of Lion passing had kept the,
ball hammering away at the Crimson
goal.
Weakening in the fourth quarter,;
State’s offensive tactics changed to a
defensive play which could not hold
back the,hard drive led by the Crim
son captain, Alan Schumacher, at out
side right. Robbins, outside left, im
mediately followed Schumacher with
the third goal for the Harvard team.
Eddie Knecht, Shorty Edwards, and
Captain A 1 Daykin repeatedly ran the
ball down the field, displaying a finely
developed passing attack. It was in
the shadow of the goal posts that the
Lion aggressiveness disappeared. This
was the first soccer, contest between
the Crimson and the Nittany Lion
since 1926, when Harvard went down
in' defeat 2-to-0.
