In both games the midshipmen regulars withdrew near the :end of. the game so far in the lead of their opponents that even with a, second-string team •on the floor, the game was in the hold ; Navy, this year, however, finds its most aggressive aggregation in its sophonfores, who make up the ballast of .the regular combination.

Traces Pro-Football History Tracing the history of pro-football, Coach Bob Higgins addressed the Ludwig Athletic Club of. Greensburg Tuesday. The Ludwig'club is an am ateur!, organization made up of re cent-high school - graduates ' Who have not entered' college beariuse, for the most part, of lack of finances. , 'Many 'members of this club were famous, high school athletes, particu larly in football. Because of their love of the sport, they banded !together in order that they might continue play ing the game. Coach Higgins was in vited to speak inasmuch .as members of the club are interested in going to college, many preferring Penn State. Former Ludwick members of the present crop of football players are Danny Deniarino and Paul Enders. .Quoting "Its Ups and Downs" by Dr. M. March, a book oil the history of pro-football, Coach Higgins men tioned that western Pennsylvania was really the birth place of the pro game. The first professional foot ball game took place in Latrobe ,in 1888, and after that saw the develop ment of the many phases of modern football, although much .of the old pro grarne has been since barred. Call for Skiiers Issued After . Invitation to Sports Carnival With the invitation ,to compete in It 11 Intercollegiate winter sports car nival at Cornell 'January 17-18, the demand;for a ski team.here has in creased to the point of becoming a reality.

Backed by Elk School of PilsicaL.Ed ucatioh and Athletics, Mr. Dercum is working out daily with a group of en EDWARD T. LIMNS field goals and three free throw's Smith Stars at, Penn Frank SMith led the Nittany pass era Wednesday night with four field goals and one foul throw which net ted the Lions 9 'points. The combine tion which Spike Leslie released on the floor consisted of Jimmy Smith end SOI Miehoff.at forwards, Kornick and Proksa at guards, and Captain Bar Riley at center. Riley tipped in place of McWilliams, whose injured ankle made it impossible for him to Play. Frank Smith was substituted at guard in the first half. At the end of the first half,' the Lions ploughed 5 points in the lead, ' the score 18-to-13. The Nittany com bination managed to maintain its lead throughout the game, as both tenths flipped baskets alternately. A few, minutes before the final gun: Kothlick dropped a foul and Jim Smith pocketed, a. field goal, to build the " score. up. 'to 31-to-26: State marched off the floor with a fairly good idea of What it can do, which was what Spike Leslie wanted to know. . , The hest ~posSible combination seems clog& to fillfillMent arid' Pri scilla a line-up including last year's varsity strengthened with a sprink ling •of sophomores. Tomorrow's game with Navy will present another opportunity for Leslie td discover just what this combination can do. Followers of the Blue and White basketball teams had to dig far back into the records, to discover when a Penn. State team last defeated Penn sylvania. They found the last vic tory was scored 13 years ago in , 1923 when the Lions triumphed, 30-23.

Ringer - Do-Nut Co. South Pugh Street THE PENN STATE COLLEGIAN Trackmen Start Winter Season; Aim at Olympics `Chid(' Werner Issues Call For Freshmen; Varsibr Men. By JOHN BRENNEMAN With one eye on'the 1936 Olympic tryouts, together with the most inten sive season that a. track team here has had for the past five or six years, Conch Charles "Chick", Werner has issued a call for all freshman and varsity candidates in that sport. Practice started this week and will continue every night, liiit no exten sive work-outs are planned for some time. While the wintery indoor track Schedule has not been officially re leased, it will probably include a meet at, \Vest Virginia,- either a dual or relay affair; 'the annual.:lnterepliegi ales; and possibly the Butler Relays at Indianapoils. A freshman team will probably compete in all of these meets and n yearling 'medley relay team will be, sent to the . Intercollegi ates. Although rather hard hit by gradu ation, the track outfit here looks to be the best in a number of years since it will be strengthened by, several out standing members of last year's fresh man ,squad, along with a number of upperclassmen ,wlia last spring were ineligible for varsity competition. Jim Redmond, captain of last year's freshman team, who broke the local high jump record as well as starring in the hurdles and broad jump, is perhaps the most welcome addition, since State tennis have been weak in these events for the past few years. lan , Murphy, a transfer from the University of Puerto; Rico last year, will be eligible for competition. Last spring he won six events in the In tramural meet and siniuld greatly' strengthen the, weight events. Pete Olexy, undefeated - in cross-country this fall, will help td , make up for the loss of Harvey and Alexander from last year's 'team. •' .

Men will' also lie sent to the .Eastern and the National Inter collegiate meet .The freshman team will meet Cornell and Pitt .in dual competition and several men will probably be sent•to the ,Penit Relays. The loss of Harry Sigel by gradua tion, and the failure of Dick Stewart to return to school leaves Werner with a weakened set of sprinters. The weight events look strong, with Cap tain Bill Miller and Noon, a sopho more, in the hammer, Emmett Brown in the ,shot, and Murphy in all of them.
