Tuesday, December 4, 1934 Lion Squad Lays CL JEFFREYMEN WIN 3 LEAGUE MEETS Undergraduate Managers of Loop Will Meet in January To Select Champions From 16 Schools in Association By WALT Although the approach may have been somewhat devious, there is no doubt that the Lion soccer squad is iirmly in the saddle as Eastern In tercollegiate Soccer Association champion, at least if our claims are fairly recognized by the undergradu ate managers of the loop, who will meet in January, to select the cham pion from the sixteen teams in the Association. Stale’s ascension to the saddle came about Turkey morning, when Cornell was tied by Haverford, 1-to 1, on the Main Liners’ field. Cornell, with four victories and two ties, has earned a total of ten to twelve pos sible points, on the Association basis of two points for victory and one for a tie. Lions Rate .875 Per Cent ' The JefFreyrimn, on the other hand, won three league lilts and tied one, for a record of seven out of eight points. Thus their percentage is .875, as opposed to the figure of .833 for Cornell. On this basis, and in fact, any basis, the Lions are deserving of any honor that may come their FIRST SHOWING of HOLIDAY GOODS atEGOLF'S New York : j Make Eyeflfi's; !! Dollar Count!

Cor nell, undisputed leader of the six team Middle Atlantic soccer circuit, was awarded “the championship” by some vague radio commentator over the week-end, but this isn’t to be con fused with the Eastern title, held by the Lions. Sentiment in favor of a much more difficult slate for next year is being marshalled on the campus, we find, especially after the anti-clinmtic farce —it can't be called a contest— in which Dickinson lost 10-to-l, and even then the Lions were pulling their punches. A card which includes six league contests instead of the minimum four shouldn’t be too hard to arrange, and it would go far to provide the Lions with more substantial fare in the way of opponents, as well- as assur ing that our claims to the champion ship would be more respectfully re ceived.

In their first regular scrimmage this year, the Lion varsity courtmen Saturday afternoon handed a severe lacing to the second and third fives in successive twenty-minute periods. The game—which, incidentally, end ed 44-to-B—showed up several men who will bear watching this season. Jim Hunter, lanky center, showed up well in the scrimmage, topping the varsity for scoring honors. Hunter, who was a member of last year’s freshman team, basketed five field goals from under the basket, and two foul shots. Jack Fletcher, at for ward, looked good on the long shots, dropping in five goals. Captain Johnny Stocker, the other forward, although low in the point scoring, was the main leader of the massacre. lie’ was responsible for starting most of the scoring plays. Jimmy Smith, at guard, turned in the best all-around performance of the afternoon. Playing smoothly, he consistently broke clean to feed the ball to Hunter and Fletcher. Bar Riley, the other guard, couldn’t seem to get going. Late in the second half, the second string replaced the varsity. Jack Heyison and Bruce Gilliard, at for wards, Jay McWilliams and Charlie Glennon, at guai*ds, and Van Linton, at center, took the court against Butch Schmidt, Harry Jaquiss, Bob Small, Fred Sell, and Bill RadclifFe. Ileyison, McWilliams, and jSchmidt showed up best in this aggregation.

THE PENN STATE COLLEGIAN WRIGHTING BET A K>'C4t many persons on this campus may have been surprised when they read the A. P. all-Amcr iean selections anti saw that ‘Shorty’ Mikclonis, Lion quarterback, re ceived honorable mention as a half back while other Lion backs, chief ly Harry Sigel, were apparently ne glected. Personally, this writer was not among those that were at vari ance with the gentlemen who made the selections. Mikclonis gained his mention in one game—the Columbia 1-1-7 bat tle. All-Americans and stars are made principally in New York City, and Mikclonis had the good fortune of putting up one of his best exhi bitions of quarterbacking in the right spot. True, he was sour in the Penn game, but All-Americans are not made in Philadelphia (wit ness the Dave Smukler, ,Temple, ef fort). Sigel was the outstanding back from the spectator’s point of view. On at least two occasions, if me mory serves us correctly, he ran back kick-offs close to fifty yards. On other occasions, he galloped around ends for twenty and thirty yards. But what the spectators didn’t sec, perhaps, was a guy by the name of Morrison blocking and another guy by the name of Mikc lonis blocking. When a coach can design plays so that only one man is necessary to block an opponent, say an end, instead of the usual two players, lie has an extra man left over to use somewhere else to advantage. Sigel is a good football player, a swell fellow personally, a fighter, and a player with brains, but he showed only speed and guts, plenty of both, on the football field. Mikc lonis. had lie given himself a chance, might have been a great broken Gains Belated Honors AL MIKELONIS.'! who, after being overlooked in making the selections of the coun try’s many all-Americans, was fi nally conceded an honorable men tion by the Associated Press. here’s why— T he big Granger flakes have to bum cool and they certainly last longer, and never gum the pipe. EEN THE LIONS By FRED W. WRIGHT- field runner —Knapp is the best on the team—to add to his kicking and passing laurels. But why get excited over an All- American selection, no matter whose? It's impossible to grade some twenty-five thousand football players and settle on the eleven best. And we have a hunch that from a business standpoint it’s an excellent thing to have one player from as many teams as possible mentioned somewhere. For that matter, the man most deserving of ‘all* honors on the 1931 Penn State team was overlooked, and wc think most persons will agree witli our contention, Lou Kreizman. After our outburst against Navy’s .employment of Dave Sloan, ex- Lion letter-earner, we find that Ar my's second-string fullback is none other than Bill Martz, who once wore the Blue and the White. All of which reminds us of the ‘Ven erable* Venorosa. who was captain of the 1932 Temple (We don’t give scholarship.) team after playing quite some football here.

The latter expresses this column’s sentiments very nicely, and there is no need to reproduce the same ideas twice in the same paper. Incidentally, we were talking to My Cousin Hugo last week and the conversation went something like this: “Point blank, is the College giv ing any athletic scholarships to football players this year?” “No. Not one cent of College money is paid to any person to play football for Penn State.” “Then how do you account for Frank Souchak, who played with the Pitt frosh against State, saying that he was offered more money to come to Stale than to go to Pitts burgh?” “Any person who makes such a statement is a liar.” “Do you contemplate changing any tires on the machine to make it run.?” > “No. The machine is running along nicely. .Rumors-to the con trary arc erroneous.” /When 1 in doubt about a room— Remember ‘there’s comfort at .t low rates at , ffcpoNipiii iSEVfc Ni Mii tt^STATEXOILECEiMftp 1 - COMFORTS-OFAN INN-ijSgf UIBOOMS-RUNNING WMERjjjSt .HAffACEffißraStg; 'O-v ' - 5," v <• * ' „ A Satisfactory Service by a Modern Sanitary Plant Penn State Laundry 320 W.
