all the gory details frOm a ring -side

to grips with the doings of the grap

cover the knights of the wooden way.
Dick almost got to cover boxing—it
having been bruited about that ht
was a former district junior champ in
that, sport—but it seems that he held
the title eight days,, so someone
thought better of it.
Johnson Brenneman will cover
swimming, fencing,- and indoor track'.

Jeffrey Is Confident
Booters Will Go
To California
While waiting for a reply to a cab
, led. inuiry as to a definite schedule
and guarantee, Bill Jeffrey is quite
optimistic as to the possibility of his
championship boaters spending .Christ
rims vacation in the For West. In fact.
according to Bill, should things pan
out as anticipated the Penn State soe
aer team will meet the University of
San Francisco 'for the championship
of the United States on Christmas
day.
Several other . contests have been
mentioned by San Francisco officials
as being possiGle matches for the
Penn State lads. Among them are
games with Pasadena College, and a
group of all-stars managed by Vic
McLaughlin, of cinema 'fame, who in
addition to supporting this team,
owns the stadium in which they play!
We note with mixed feelings that
Yale,. remains co-Folder. of the Asso
ciation title with Penn State, by vir
tue. of a.2-to-1 victory over their, Big
Three rival,' Harvard, on last Friday.
With one game remaining, and that
with Princeton on next Saturday,
prospects.seem bright for Yale to end
the season undefeated.
. Although - post-season contests are
notoriously frowned upon by the Big
Three, were 'a soccer match with Yale
to - be arranged the result would be
most, interesting. In feet the gauntlet
has already been thrown to the bull
dogs,' according to Coach Jeffrey but
to date no anwser has been received.

When a learn plays the way it did
against Bucknell, even the most en
thusiastic supporter finds it hard to
explain just what is wrong. Let's
not, gloss over the factsand call
what happened breaks; they were
mistakes an d
the game was
lost through
them. Even
that last min.

erase the fact
that blunders

take committed at the most inop
portune times possible.
The season as a whole must now
be regarded as a dismal failure;
what started out to be the best sea
s2n in years has been just a so-so
Showing. Instead of a consistent
squad we'have a mystery eleven; if
it hadn't been for the defensive
ability of the line, we would have
wound up in the cellar. The peo
ple around here are getting tired
of seasons that are only mediocre,
of waiting ;or the New Deal in ath
letics. Tfiey are that especially be
cause of the fine material this year.
Well; with the exception of substi
tuting, the coach's job ends on a
Friday night. Just whom mould
you blame when the team makes a
sorry mess of the Saturday's un
dertaking? Some sort of ruling
prevents the coach from playing,
you know.'
In my opinion, the team let the
school down 'in that game Satur
day. If they had been 'encounter
ing opposition of any calibre what
soever they would have an alibi. As
it is—well, anyway, thank God for
the Blue Band.
Well, your sports - editor. is

cer season is concluded. To be de
clared co-champion is something
very fine, hut for a really fine bunch
of boys, the unique honor is none
too fine. If they - go to California,
and it seems that they may, they
will bring, nothing but 'credit, to the
institution.• .
Speidel Face's G
As Grappler
Although an' undertone of a g onized
!grunting and groaning has been heard
pouring over the campus from the
general direction of Itec for some
time now, it has been merely an in
dication or preview of what is to
come. Starting this afternoon the
chorus will be stepped up at least an
octave and will be under the official
direction of Charles Speidel who will
tell the boys what it is all about, for
wrestling practice officially starts to
day.
Concentration is the order of the
and, and will continue to be until after
the first match with Michigan on
January 18. Seven dual meets, the
largest order in many year:. is the
schedule for the grapplers and meet
ing a Big Ten group like Michigan,
on opening day only makes the going
tougher.
With Thanksgiving and Christmas
vacations acting as effective barriers
to proper training, Coach Speidel is
faced with the gigantic task of select
ing,. organizing and training an al
most entirely new team in the short
time of five weeks before curtain call.
Of last year's strong team only three
regulars are back. Captain Jack
Light, Sammy Wolfson and Joe
O'DoWd. Eight lettermen were strick
en by graduation.

By 808 GRUBB
With the opening meet less than
two months away, Penn State's East
ern Intercollegiate champion boxing
team will swing into intensive prac
tice after Thanksgiving vacation un
der the tutelage of Couch Leo Houck,
who is entering upon his twelfth year
as Lion ring mentor.
While an official call has not yet
lick extended, a number of the Lion
ring veterans have been working out
daily in the gynt under Coach Houck.
Among them are Captain Russell
Criswell, 115-lb. champion for the past
two years; Frankie Goodman, 1:15-lb:
fighter; Lou Ritzie, title-hold
er; Freddie O'Neil in the 115-lb.
class; and Izzie Richter, heavyweight.
Francis McAndrews, who is now prac
tice teaching in Hazleton, is working
out there.-
Coach Houck has had his hands
full with teaching intramural ring
contenders some of the fundamentals
of the mit game, hut he will be able
to devote his entire time to varsity
candidates after the intramurals have
been run oil next week. '

gantic Task
's Season Opens
gan, the wrestlers will enjoy a brier
respite. Temple and Pittsburgh, who
provide the second and third encount
ers of the - Nittanymen usually have
rather weak teams, Temple being no
toriously poor, -and Pitt being de-
scribed as a weak sister when it
comes to wrestling.
However. after these meets it will
be necessary to whip the squad into
top season form to meet Lehigh. Al
ways possessed of a strong team Le
high has developed into one' of our
most, bitter rivals in the catch-as
catch-can sport.
As usual, the matmen are a couple
of months behind on their schedule,
practice should have started long ago.
Just why this condition should exist
we can't say, on account of having
promised Charlie Speidel that we
wouldn't. After all—football is im
portant.
Len Henderson Named
'39 Harriers' Captain
Leonard P. Henderson was named
honorary- captain of the freshman
cross-country team at the annual
cabin party held by the varsity and
freshmen Thursday night.
Henderson was the winner of two
dual meets this year, and in the other
two he led the Lion squad. At the
Intercollegiates, he placed tenth.
Vanity captain and managers will
bo chosen this week. Winners of
letters and numeral will also be an

INTRAMURA
With this column, we wave a balmy
adieu to the host of intramuralists
and their doings which we have en

It was fun for all, including us. And
