which continued until . yesterday,
when reopening of College forced the
resumption of the five-to-geven prac- ,

Smoothness Stressed in Practice
When practice started, Coach Les
lie declared that when competition be
gan he hoped to have a team which,
through hours on the'court, would be
in really mid-season form. For the
last two weeks he has been polishing
detail after detail of the Nittany
men's playing tactics, until with the
opening tonight, 'everything points to
the fact that the squad is finally
smoothad out, a machine that shduld
succeed'in cutting down Crusader op
position without too much trouble.
Last night, after a short varsity
warming up, time was spent improv
ing second-string smoothness, with
the emphasis on foul-shooting and on,
plays leading into fast shots from
under the basket. The, varsity took
a breather from the long weeks of!
drill.
Lion• PlOys Clicking
From mlsy scrimmages with the
second squad, members of the first
- string have developed that quality so
necessary to the smooth functioning
of any court team—cooperation, un
til tonight, when they swing their
first offensive play against the bar
riers erected by. the Maroon and
Orange, passing and shooting should
click perfectly.
During the last couple of weeks,
