B , Sheridan • Cooper F. B—__ Kominick With only one more week of prac tice before the opening of the 1934 season against Lebanon Valley, the Lion eleven will stack up against Coach Nels .Walke’s untried plebe gridders’on New Beaver field at 2:30 o’clock Saturday afternoon. Unlike last week’s scrimmage against Lock Haven State Teachers' College, the game will be a regula tion one* giving Coach Bob Higgins and his staff an opportunity to see Just what their proteges can do. . The starting line-up has been changed considerably from last .week’s scrimmage. Only five men who took the turf against the pedagogues will start again against the plebes. They are Captain Merrill Morrison, Schuyler, Wismer, Barth, and .Weber. When the varsity takes the field on Saturday, it will not be to meet a niuch lighter team. The ’3B eleven is expected to. outweigh them. But, still smarting from the indifferent showing they made against Lock Ha ven lost Saturday, Captain Morrison and his mates are in just the right state of mind to regain the confidence of the coaches and fans; While no great stress has been laid on selecting a first-team combi nation, the Nittany mentor has in : dicated that the showing made against the freshmen will have much to do with the selection of .the start ing line-up against Lebanon Valley. Three sophomores, all of whom showed up well last week, will start. Barth, guard, ’ and Schuyler,- tackle, have been • showing up so well all •through traihihg season that’ they are virtually assured of places on tHe varsity, while Morini, end, gained the eye of Coach Higgins by his <le-, fense playing last Saturday. , •Most of the new west stands will be completed in time for the game Saturday.

Plebes Await Whistle Of Their Opening Game Here Lining up against varsity col legiate material for the first time on New Beaver field at 2:30 o’clock Sat urday afternoon will be eleven un tried and inexperienced yearling grid ders. But despite their inexperience and the short period of time that they have had to practice together, they’ll be eleven men who will be hard to beat. Why? Because they’ll be charging, clipping, and fighting hard in an in tense effort to be the first Penn State freshmen team ever to hand the var sity football team a setback. And that is the goal toward which they are : working. That is the accelerator of their enthusiasm and spirit which is so obvious at their practice sessions. Coach Walke,- always a pessimist, refuses to soy his boys will do more than make* a good showing against Bob Higgin’s ball-totei’s but anyone who has attended one of the daily freshmen practices will be willing to put money on the line that it will be more than the average "varsity freshmen” game. The Blue and White yearlings are new to the collegiate game; they lack experience, polish, and perhaps unity. But Saturday will see a freshmen team line-up against the varsity that will have more than experience to rely upon. First of all, they have size; indivi dually they are very well construct ed, being solidly built yet rangy; and as a group they are very well balanc ed. The line isn’t heavy on one side and light on the other. In other words they’ve got the "makings” arid Coach Walke hopes that this touCh of real collegiate ex perience will add enough polish to his eleven that they will work together smoothly when they travel down to Mercersburg Academy, Saturday a week. 30 BOOTEES CONDITION FOR OPENING CAMPAIGN With but two regulars yet to re port, Coach Bill. Jeffrey’s. squad, of hooters is nearly up to battle strength with* the' openihg'gun of the cam paign a little move than two weeks away. Nightly practices are rapidly conditioning the .team, although lim ited to fundamentals and brief scrim mages. Over thirty have reported to the varsity group, with new ar rivals daily. . For the fullback berths, there are four capable aspirants: Graham, Si gel, Binns, and Dennis. Halfback hopefuls or certainties, in the case of some include Captain Fletcher, Dal las, Krems and Sutliff, while the for ward line will be manned by a com bination chosen in all probability from the following: Masters, Mc- Ewan, Long, Corbett, Ambler, Cas terline, Hassler, Osterlund, Barnes, Shoff, Corman, Underwood and Welch. Palmer or Bell; take your choice. That nearly sums up the matter of goalie although the next two weeks will determine just which one does have the edge. Sophomores arc bound to break into the rest of the line-up on the basis of the tour of Scotland and also the few practice sessions held already this year. ill Clash With Utitried If ear ling Eleven Saturday SWIMMING TICKETS FOR ALL STUDENTS GO ON SALE AT $2 Fee Includes Use of Pool, Instruction For Semester Semester tickets are. now on ' sale at the treasurer’s office at two dol lars each for students wishing to take swimming instruction at Glennland Pool, according to Ed Lee ’3O, man ager of the pool.
