The Sports Editor
| l . Thoughts this morning are probab
ly far away from the 193-1 gridiron
but we can’t miss the oppor-
I tunity to/commend favorably, for a
t change, on football- scheduling ar
* rangements here. The 1934 schedule,;
| even though it is in only a tentative
• form, comes close to being the type
| of schedule the Lions should play cor.-
I sistently. Its main change from the
I 1932 and 1933 cards comes in the fact
: that five instead of only four major
| frays are scheduled. Pcnn| Columbia,
: Syracuse, Lehigh, and Lafayette are
five natural- major rivals who Penn
State elevens may meet with a fair
chance for both success and prestige.
The re-scheduling of Gettysburg, too,
as one of the minor opponents is a
commendable move, for it brings back
to the Lions’ season an opponent of
long standing. All in all, the tenta
tive arrangements for 1934 presage
an interesting and successful season
which represents a step farther tow
ard the ultimate goal of playing ma
jor teams exclusively in the seven
game season to which athletic officials
? are committed.
