Friday, October 23,1936 «« Between The Lions »» By 808 GRUBB With football at the season’s half-way mark, other Lion fall sports arc facing crucial tests this week-end. c The Nittany harriers will meet Manhattan for the first time at Van Corllandt Park in New York City. In Manhattan, the . Penn State cross-country team will find one of the strongest opponents it has ever come up ; (against. The metropolitan runners were headed only by Michigan State in the I. C. 4-A meet in New York City last year. Lafayette comes here to menace the record of the Lion bootors and Coach Bill Jeffrey, has been prim ing his lads all week for this ma jor contest. The visitors held the Lions to the narrow margin of one goal last year and according to all reports they are no less, impressive this season. Seranton-ICeystone Junior Col lege comes here to offer the opposi tion for the yearling gridders. The freshmen did not look too promis ing in their first game two weeks ago, so tomorrow’s game will indi cate where they stand. The fresh man cross-country team accompa nies the varsity gridders to Cornell to compete against the Ithaca freshmen in their first dual meet of the season.

At Corner Room—Wednesday, Thursday, Friday Some one asked us the other day why we didn't go in for this prog nostication business. Our reply wus that this season has been pretty tough on those brave souls who at tempt to predict victories, let alcne scores. And when Grantland Rice admits it’s tough, who are we to argue. Although a number of minor ail ments still prevail, Bob Higgins is taking his strongest material since the Muhlenberg game to Ithaca to day. Still smarting under their de feat at Lehigh last week, the var sity gridders went through two scrimmages this week that made, it look as though the boys really mean business this time. * Well, here goes on that predic tion: It’s State by one touchdown. .The score: 12-7. This seemingly rash statement, we suspect, will be the signal for the really smart boys to step up and lay their money on Cornell. At' least that’s Wingshot’s theory. It will be gratifying to see John ny Economos back at guard for the first time since the opening game. On the other hand, Paul Enders, that promising junior who was shifted for tackle this week and was sure to have seen service, may not be able to play tomorrow. ENGINE "PUMP” OIL?

Eckley Garage 116 McAllister St. State College present Varsity Plebesßun Tomorrow At Cornell 0 I e x y Leads Nittany X-Country Squad In Tryouts By WOODY BIERLY State’s harriers, coached by ‘Click’ Werner will meet the stiff e s t opponent on their schedule when they run in a duel meet against the Man hattan - aggregation at Van Cortlandt Park, New York City, tomorrow morn ing. While the varsity are striving to uphold their fine dual meet record, the freshmen will be opening their season against the Cornell cubs, at Ithaca, N. Y. Pete Olexy led the field in the time trials for the varsity on Tuesday night, finishing the 6-mile route with a time of 27:30, only ten seconds more than the record here. He was followed by Hazard with n time of 28:06; Cap tain Downey, 28:24; Henderson, 28:47; Clark 29:00; Pierce, 29:00; Aikman, 2D:OG; Griest 30:45; and Wear, 30:47. The first seven of these runners will compose the first Penn State sports team to ever compete with Manhat tan College. Gordon, although turning in a worse time than he did last week, led the freshmen harriers in their trials Tues day night. His time was 16:27, while that of Maule, second man to cross the line, was 16:51. Galer rated 17:08 Miller, 17:31; Nipson, 17:50; Van Pat ten, 18:14 and Yohn, 18:23. These sev en men will compose the team to run against the Cornell freshmen. Should State lose the meet tomoi> row and place a black mark on her almost perfect record of the past ten years* she can not be too severely ciiticized. The meet will present to the Lion runners on of the finest group of hill-and-dalers they have met in recent years. Manhattan placed sec ond in the intercollegiates last fall, Michigan State taking first place. The Manhattan boys placed 10th, 12th 22d, 25th and 27th, in the competition, showing that much of their scoring ability lies in the close order in which they finish. They have always been near the top when it came to cross country and this year’s team is no exception. The freshmen times, with the ex ception of that of Gordon, were sligh tly beter than those of the first trials last week. However, they are not too encouraging. Cornell usually has a fine outfit of harriers, their freshmen last year taking 3rd place in the ifctA’s. Gridmen Face Crucial Test of 1936 Season (Continued from page one) beaten a Snavely-coachcd team. The old man always could pull an infer ior BuckneTl team through with a vic tory somehow, and with the heavy boys lie has now, both in weight and in odds, he should be a tougher nut than ever to crack. But from all indications this week the Lions will be a fighting team. They will have to be to dent an ag gregation that swamped Syracuse and played a good game that was thrown to Yale mainly through inex perience. "" The Lions locked great in scrim mage, but the "real thing” tomorrow will be the test. • The type of play will be somewhat the same with’ both teams, each using the single wing back Warner type. The drive and fight will be the determining factors, as they always are where there is real ability to display.. j The Lions have been scouted at all •their games and Snavely knows many of the individual performers person ally. But he doesn’t know those in dividuals together as a team, and that is the only way that Penn State can hope to beat Cornell.

Last year, Lafayette and Springfield came nearest to upsetting the Penn State string of victories. It was only after a desperate battle that 'the Lions finally penctraed Lafayette’s strong defense to win, 1 to 0. Lafay ette managed this feat by concentrating on stopping the Nittany forwards. The visitors from Easton will bi Led by Henry Eleneiwski, inside left tion for All-America honors, Lafny-* ette has one win, a tie, and one loss. Last Saturday,, the Leopards stopped Temple, 4 to 0, with Eleneiwski scor-, ing three goals. In fourteen games that have been played between Penn State and La- i fayette, the Leopards have yet to win. j Ten times, the Lions wen by shutouts, j and the last time Lafayette scored was in 1930. The only setback the soccer team received this year came when Dave Weddell injured his knee in pre-sea son pi'actices. Weddell, a veteran full back, rested for several weeks, and finally was ready to play last week against Gettysburg. On the first play he again hurt the same knee, and he is definitely out for the rest of the season. He was expected to rate a starting assignment. Coach Bill Jeffrey will start the same lineup that opened every other game this year. Miss Jo Hobart will again open the game, and will be seen along the starting line of Cap ! tain Biil McEwan, Frank Osterlund, Sol Miehoff, Carl Wacker, and Dick Wilde. The halfbacks will be Eddie Mandel, Walt Painter, and Freddy Spyker. Frank Megrail may break in there. The fullbacks will be Phil Barnes and Bill Borda, and Dick Haag will again guaref the goal. Captain Bill McEwan is ahead of the intercollegiate scoring record which he established in 3934, when he tallied twenty goals. With nine collected in the two games already played this season, lie stands a good chance of breaking his other mark. Last year, a leg operation kept the Penn State leader cut of the first contest and held him back most of the season. Despite this, he led the ring a veteran eleven here tomorrow, who last year received honorable men* undefeated and untied team in scor ing with seven markers. A further indication that he will set up a new record is the fact that the Lions will play eight games in contrast with the seven played previously. jgfmamMmmawm i - i m i I ' ■' s BEHIND the scenes, In many a capture by G-men, will be found tlie service provided by T-men—telephone men (and women, too) of the Bell System. Law enforcement officers make frequent use of both local and long distance telephone service. They depend on the Teletypewriter, for quick and ac curate transmission of written messages. They tighten their nets with the aid of yet another Bell System development, police car radio. And so the telephone, with products and services grow ing out of it, helps to make your life happier, broader and more secure.
