Alpha Chi Sigma
Tilt Slated for Tomorrow
Night at 7:30 Under Arcs;
S.P. E. Favored To Triumph
Managers Laurer, Jacobs Predict Close Battle;
Both Grooming Their Teams in Pass
Defense, Straight Power Plays
By VANCE
Ominous rumblings and dire threats
are emanating from the S.P.E. and
Alpha Chi Sig lodges as the-two clubs
enter the final stages of pugnacity in
preparation for their onslaught on
the Practice Field at 7:30 o’clock to
morrow night. The game will decide
the winner of the intramural foot
ball crown. .
When interviewed last night, the
managers, of the two clubs were very
polite. Both pilots Laurer land Ja
cobs said that they expected a ter
rific battle, but hinted significantly
that the best team would win.
After witnessing both outfits !in
action in previous, games, it would
be rather nerve-racking to make any
. rash predictions, but if a definite
stand had 'to be taken, it would be in
favor of the gas-station crew.
. This team has been positively im
pressive, in every one of its games,
and the way it bowled over the Phi
Sigma Delta crew to the tune of 48-
to-0 still lingers in our minds as noth- ;
ing short of a spectacle. On the oth
er hand, the chemists started out
rather feebly, and didn’t even attract
our attention unt)il the \semi-finals
with the S.A.E.’s. Then they tramp
led the rugged S.A.E. combination
with gusto, and showed signs of even
grfeater potential strength.
The S.P.E.’s have been perfecting
their pass defense, and in the game
they intend to place all their hopes
on straight power plays no fancy
stuff for them. Statistics on the pre
vious Alpha Chi Sig games show that
they also definitely shy away from
aerial maneuvering, and that. they
have used three times more line plays
than passes and deception plays.
'The Sig Eps are relying on Quar
terback Tindle and Fullback Turner
to execute their line-crushing tactics.
With GOOD Eyesight .youth’s
chances loom big. Poor vision
handicaps heavily unless cor
rected by the right glasses.
Ours is an exact science.

NAVY SUBMERGED

McEwan Contributes 3 Tallies,
Bielicki 2, in 7-1 Rout of
Middies Saturday
By WALT FREUNSCH
Eleven victory-hungry Lions made
short shrift of the Navy hooters'
hopes for a cruise up Come-back Bay,
when they handed them their fourth
straight league defeat on New Bea
ver field Saturday, by the decisive
score of 7-to-l. I
Bill McEwan was the scoring ace
with three tallies, although his play
was not as sparkling as it has been,
possibly because of that knee trou
ble.' Joe Bielicki drove two past the
goalie, while Frankie Osterlund and:
George Corbett! tallied a goal apiece.
Miller, Navy’s inside left, caged the
only point for the Middies.
The first period, in fact, the whole
game, was marked- by State’s pass
ing attack, which kept the j ball- in
Navy , territory 'almost all the time.
In the second quarter, Ray Bell and
Jack Binns mixed their signals, with
the result that Bell went much too;
far out from the goal, allowing Miller
to score. Bell later redeemed him
self in the tussle, especially in the
second period when he fisted a high
one on qver the goal, and then fisted
the subsequent corner kick away from
.the net to prevent an almost sure
goal.
For the Jeffreymen, Osterlund play,
ed an outstanding brand of ball
throughout, his passing almost mak
ing up for his apparent inability or
disinclination to score- more often.
Captain Jack Fletcher and Bill Sut
liff did yeoman work in feeding the
hall to-the line. , Sanderson, little
tow-thatched outside left for the fu
ture skippers, was a spark-plug for
his team.

WRIGHTING
Between
The Lions
‘By FRED W. WRIGHT"
At twenty minutes after four
Saturday afternoon a landmark in.
the gradual emergence of Penn
State's football comeback was
reached. With a record of four
victories against three losses, the
Lions this morning can boast of
.571 there is still
a chance to boost the figure to .625
next Saturday afternoon against
Bucknell.
Since the Nittiny Lions hit their
modern low ebb in football in 1931
with a .107 average, the record has
been constantly on the increase as
far as victories arc concerned. In
1932 the percentage went up to
.280, last year to .500, and this
year win, draw, or lose this Satur
day, it can go no lower. The vic
tories read 1,2, 3, 4 for the past
four seasons.
For those who may be interested,
the Lions scored 25’points in twen
ty-three plays Saturday afternoon,
a fact that is little short of phe
nomenal when it is considered that
in the previous 103 of the 139 plays
of the game the Blue and White
eleven drew a zip for their efforts.
We have a letter from predeces
sor J. M. S., who writes that Jack
Livezey, captain of the 1931'base
ball team and regular back with
the grid eleven, is in his fourth
year as football coach at Canton
High School, slated to win the West
Branch League championship. He
will probably step up to bigger
things before long, J. M. S. opines.
Also: Ed McMinn, who scored
more points than anyone else when
he played guard on the Lion five
a couple of years ago, if memory
serves us correctly, is in his second
year as footbalL coach at Picture
Rocks High School and his team
looks like a last place winner in the
same league. Poor material is gen
erally conceded to be,the reason. '

terback, centcrfielder and halfback

HAMAS, SCHMELING
TO BOX IN MARCH
Fight Slated For “Somewhere
In Germany” Will Decide
• Baer Challenger
By.JOHNJMILLER,
Boxing fans are somewhat bewil
dered by the action of Steve Hamas,
former Nittany Lion athlete, who
signed a contract last Thursday to
again face Max Schmeling “some
where in Germany” early..in March.
It’s everything to lose and nothing to
gain as far as a shot at Max Baer’s
chin is concerned.
If Steve wins the bout with the
former German champion, his legiti
mate claim as the outstanding title
tender for the heavyweight title
would naturally be strengthened, but
if he loses it would result in his hav
ing to stage a comeback from the
bottom of the pile.
Because of Schmeling’s unchal
lenged come-back victory over Walter
Neusel, German fans are of the opin
ion that it will be Hamas and not
Schmeling who will get “one of the
worst beatings of his career,” this
time. The . recent victory of the for
mer Nittany Lion over Art Lasky at
Madison Square Garden makes the
oncoming fight all- the more attrac
tive to German and American fans.
Where the fight will be held in
Germany cannot be until
Walter Rothenbrug, the Hamburg
promoter, is able to find a German
city that is willing to assist in erect
ing a temporary hall which would
be large enough to accomodate the
25,000 fans expected to witness the
battle. None of the present halls in
Germany could seat such a crowd.
“Can he do it again?” is the ques
tion that is troubling the minds of
three and won three games with
the Milton club of the Central
Pennsylvania League and played in
the outfield as a regular assign
ment. Moonves batted .331 in his
first year of pro baseball.
WeVe still waiting for the gen
tlemen who wrote us under *a Sen
ior’ and ‘a Freshman’ as signa
tures to send us their correct
names as a matter of record so that
we may publish their letter as re
quested.

A 1-to-l score was the result of
the Army-Navy hockey game last
Wednesday. It was a fitting end to
one of the major events of the hockey
season. The teams were closely
matched, and playing honors were
evenly divided.
The juniors are still favorites for
the interclass championship. The
game will I>e played ‘this afternoon,
and the sophomores will have a strug
gle to win the laurels from the 193 G
team of championship caliber.
The proposed plan for the basket
ball season which has been passed
by the W.A.A. board, will be voted
on by the intramural- units during
the coming week.
According to the plan, the fifteen
intramural units will be divided into
two groups, the Blue and the White
teams. The units in each group will
play other teams in the same group,
until each has had a chance to com
pete. The teams from each group
which have won the largest number
of games will play one another to
determine the intramural champion
ship.
Approximately fifty games will be
played in the course of the intramural
tournament, and the interclass games
will he conducted separately. The
point system will be revised to meet
the needs of the new system.
Chi Omega forfeited to Delta Gam
ma, and Theta Phi Alpha defeated
Phi Mu, 11-to-8, in the intramural

Dormitories also forfeited to Wom

many ardent supporters of Hamas
who fully expected that his next move
would be to make it a little hotter
for Max Baer than the present situ
ation seems to indicate.
With Steve rated by Rothenburg
as the outstanding contender for the
heavyweight title, because of his vic
tories over Schmeling and Lasky, and
Schmeling as the second outstanding
candidate for Baer’s shoes, the on
coming battle promises to be the one
that will definitely determine the
challenger of the present champion.

LIONS RALLY LATE
IN FRAY TO CRUSH
LEOPARDS, 25-TO-6
Fry, Cooper, Morrison Tally in Final Quarter To
Overcome Early Lafayette Lead;
Squad Drills for Bisons
By DOXN
Finally finding itself in the last
frame, the Nittany Lion eleven came
from behind to trample the Maroon
of Lafayette, 25-10-G, after trailing
the Leopard for half the game on
New Beaver field Saturday after
noon.
With that game in the bag, Coach
Boh Higgins is now grooming bis
proteges for much tougher opposi
tion—Bucknell. The varsity went
through the regular drill sessions
and will meet the freshman gridders
in an open scrimmage on New Beaver
field at 4:30 o’clock this afternoon.
The Bisons, formidable opposition
any time, will be on the rebound aft
er their loss to Western Maryland on
Saturday.
The Lions played the sloppiest foot
ball of the season for about three
quarters of Saturday’s game, and
then turned loose a furious running
and passing attack to score twenty
five points on as many plays.
Lafayette scored early in the sec
ond period when Stabley, ace half
for the Leopards, took one of Mike
lonis' punts on his own 3G*yard line
and raced through the whole Penn
State team behind good interference
for a touchdown. Nesi's try for the
extra point went wide.
The Leopards managed to hold this
lead for the next two quarters, chief
ly by the punting of Stabley. The
Lion backs were unable to get away
for any considerable gains and fumb
led several times. They scored only
five first downs from the.time Laf
ayette scored until the end of the last j
quarter.
In the third period, the Lion for-

crashed through to throw the Leopard
backs at the line of scrimmage re
peatedly. The outstanding men in
the line were Lou Kreizman, playing
his last home game, Chuck Cherun
dolo, and Bob Morini, who started at
left, end in place of Art Fry.
An then the last period started.
The Nittanymcn had to score even
to tie the Maroon. On the second
play in the fourth quarter Dick Mau
rer tossed a pass from the State 41-
yard line to Art Fry on Lafayette’s
37-yard line. Fry ran the remainder
of the distance to the goal unmolest
ed. Coach Higgins sent Cooper to
kick the extra point. His attempt
went wide.
The next two touchdowns came
largely through the efforts of Harry
Sigel. Ho took the ball twenty-three
yards to the Lafayette 5-yard, line
and Bill Cooper took it across on two
line bucks. His kick was wide. Cher
undolo intercepted a pass a little la
ter and took the ball to the Maroon
22-yard line. Sigel got away for
twelve yards and Cooper again took
the ball across. Rhoda’s kick for
the point after touchdown was good.
The Leopards were so bewildered
and tired out by the sudden ferocity
of the Lion’s attack that they offered
little resistance.
