less .than the opposition.
The dispute in the S. A. E.-D. U.
game, which transcended all the rules
of football, intramural or otherwise.
The S. A. E.'s were behind their own
goal line and decided to kick out of
danger. A D. U. blocked the kick,
the ball bounced into the end zone,
was touched, ostensibly by a D. U.,
and then bounced out of bounds. Was
it a' touchdown? Was it a safety.?
If so, so what? Nobody accused to
know. Even the coaches weren't sure.
It seems that the play hod broken all
precedent, so it wasn't in any rule
book. It was finally ruled a safety,
but certain parties still think they
got the raw end of it.
And then 'there's Ben Lappen, Beta
Sigma. Rho's claim to intramural no
toriety, whose specialty was running
back RiCks past the point, where they
started from.
His fifty-yard run, and some say
fifty-five, in the first minute of the
Sigma Tau Phi game, was one of the
most spectacular plays of a season
crammed - with .unnsual and colorful
competition.

By TOWNSEND SWALM
As a fitting climax to ten years of
outstanding service as guiding gen
ius of the Penn State soccer team, Bill
;Jeffrey has realized a long cherished
dream. Undefeated in three success
sive seasons, untied and unscored up
on for two of these, the Nittany boat
ers have ended this year's season in
possession of that, for Penn State,
elusive title—lntercollegiate Almaci
elation Football League Champions,
and a chance to become the first soc
cer team in America to hold the title
—NATIONAL INTERCOLLEGIATE
ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL CHAM
PIONS OF THE UNITED STATES.
There are two catches to the above,
hoWever. The first being Yale Univer
sity, which at the .present time has a
record, according to League figures,
which is equal to that of the Lions.
They have not lost a game, nor have
they been tied, although they have
been scored on three times. With two
tough games remaining to be played,
the Elis have a good chance of fin
ishing, trailing Penn State. In any
event, the least we can expect is to
be named cc-holders of the Eastern
title with Yale.
National Classic Planned
The last hitch in the picture has
developed slightly nearer home.
The University of San Francisco,
undisputed soccer champions of the
west coast for the past four years,
in an attciript .to enter into competi
tion with a team of their own high
calibre, has issued a formal invitation
to Penn State to come to California
'to play a match for the national title.
A match of this sort would compare
closely with the annual Rose Bova
football classic.
The California group has guaran
teed the expenses of the trip for the
Lions—the west coast being quite,sce
cer conscious—and has arranged a
tentative three game schedule begin
ning with the national title contest.
It is probable that the trip could
be made entirely during Christmas va
cation, although some school may
have . to be missed by the team.
Favorable, Action Anticipated
Jeffrey likes the idea. The team is
wild about it. So . .
However—and here is the . catch—
afterßoard' has mulled
the idea over for a sufficient length
of time, it must be 0. K.'d by the Fac:
ulty Committee, which group rather
frowns on pest season contests, And
rightly so, for after all lessons are an

1.C.4A. Meet in New York
Herb Hazard, Freshman
Harrier, Takes
6th Place
By JOHN BRENNEMAN
Well, the cross-country team went
to New York and the Intercollegiates,
they have the newspaper clippings, if
they bothered to clip them, and the
%tubs from llinsky's to prove it.
A wire story in the last issue of the
COLLEGIAN mentioned the fact that
both freshman and varsity teams took
sixth place. Since he did not attend
the• meet, the writer is in no position
to analyze it. There are, however,
a few obvious facts which may prove
Pete Oleiy, undefeated in dual' com
petition, finished in twenty-first posi
tion. Ahead of him were two men
whom be had beaten in previous meets.
Ong of them, Woodland of Yale, plac
ed fourth. 'At Yale Pete easily fin
ished 300 yards ahead of him.
Captain Book placed thirty-fourth.
Two Syracuse runners, whom he had
beaten two weeks earlier, finished
ahead of him. Howard Downey, thir
ty-sixth, followed three runners who
earlier in the season had followed him.
Five men that he had beaten earlier
in the season 'halted ahead of Bill
Trimble in forty-ninth place. The

integral part of the Collegd curricu-
The matter has • been in'-the hands
of the Athletic Board for. some time
same thing applied to Don Daugherty
who was 116th. Harry Wear, in nine
ty-ninth place, was beaten by'one run
ner whom he had previously defeated.
This is the third yea• in a row that
a State cross-country team has gone
through a successful season of dual
competition, only to fail dismally at
the Intercollegiates. It seems obvious
to us that the team lacks something.
If you want more exact information
ask Coach Werner. He doesn't mind
using an ;Anglo-Saxon monosyllable.
The showing of the freshman team
was not smite so disappointing, al
though they were beaten by two
teams : which they hail defeated in
dual competition. The bright spot on
an otherwise dreary afterhoon was
the performance of Herb Haza•d. Be
fore coming up here Herb had done
no competitive running. He started
the season slowly, but Monday he fin
ished in sixth place, only twenty-five
seconds behind the winner. Len Hen
derson, in tenth position, ran about
as well as he has all season.
In fact, the freshmen would have
placed higher than they did if it had
n't been for the fact that someone
failed to put the name of Bill Griest,
the third or fourth best man on the
sound, on the contestant's list. But
then managers have a lot of duties;
they can't lie expected to remember
everything.
Oh, well.
Yale, With 2 Games Still
Unplayed, Holds Title
With Penn State.
and although both this body and the
Faculty Committee have yet to pass
on it, it seems to this writer that in
light cf the existing circumstances
both groups should deeN heartily in
favor of the project.
By far the best and most outstand
ing athtletic group which has arisen
in the past ten years at Penn State,
the national recognition which this
trip would produce, is only the due
of the Nittany hooters—and incident
ally. the attendant publicity would not
do the College itself any harm.
Classes Missed, Compared
Furthermore. in so far as classes
missed is concerned, it will be re
membered thtat of the fall varsity
athletic teams. the football team has
played fear away contests, the cross
country team had five away trips and
the soccer - team, only bra. Figured on
an equal basis, the football squad
missed twenty-eight hours of school
per man, the harriers, 'thirty-nine
and the boaters, twenty-two.
• According to the tentative arrange
ments for the proposed western in
vasion, the maximum number of hours
which the soceermen might have to
miss is eighteen. This figure added to
twenty-two gives a total of forty—one
hour more than the cross-country
total. In view of the achievements of
the booters, the national title which
is at stake, and the national attention
which a contest of thtis sort would
focus on Penn State, this seems like
a small enough concession to make
to the group of splendid athletes
which make up Penn State's champ
ionship soccer team.
In reviewing this year's perfect sea
son, several things stand out:
Never tefere in the twenty-five
years during which Nener has been
played here has the team gone)
through a perfect season in which as
many as seven games were played.
The 1933 and 1924 perfect seasons
were on a six-game basis, while in 'l9,
'l7 and 'l6 the games were three,
one and two respectively.
