BETWEEN
THE LIONS
By 808 GRUBB
Is Penn State definitely on the
trail' back to the subsidization pol
icy under which this college devel
oped' football teams of Rose Bowl'
variety back in the early twenties?
The latest evidence that, the
Nittany Lion intends to rise to
supremacy onee more in the
sports world is the announcement.
.that Army is' on' the 1939 foot
hall schedule—the same year that.
l'itt invades New Beaver Field"
for the first time since 1931. And
while not definitely settled, games
with Yale and Harvard are.pos 7
sibilities, although we cannot.-
look - for ' opponents like thcse - on.
our schedules for at least'Sour or
five . years. .
Coupled with -- the scheduling • of
more formidable 'oppenents year by'
year is the program• for• expansion
of - . New Beaver Field, which will
reach its peak when accomodations
have been made "to care , for. .19,000
spectators, almost twice the capacity
of the 'Stadium at the present time.
It' is likely; that Penn State • will
Very • definitely be back . in the . big
time when we consider the resump
tion of an Army series and the fact
that some of the games will probably
be played in New York. The last
time that Penn State played in New
York- (excepting Columbia in 1934)
was when the Lions met •Georgia
Tech about ten years - ago. 'How--
ever, the important indication -is ,the
expansion of schedule year .by year
and the alterations to the physical
Plant necessary to care for the in
creased business.
While we are speaking of fu
ture schedules,' we must Consider
that with the good there must
come the bad, and by the 'latter
we mean the probable termina
tion of our series with Penn in
1939. Harlow's regime at 'Har
vard means a. resumption of foot
ball relations with Penn. And
Penn, wanting to stick in the Ivy
League, will favor Harvard over
State ,when it comes to making
up schedules. Also, the fact that
State has not been drawing as"
well as the Penn moguls had ex
pected, ° means that the Nittany
Lions are not as welcome to
Franklin Field as they once were.
' Getting back to the subject of
subsidization trend,' the powerful
alUmni groups have given every in
dication that they are in back of
such a move to put their, alma ma
ter back on the football : pedestal:it
pnee . occupied. However, the -ad
ministration here offers - strorig oppo
sition to any subsidy plan. . The
football-conscious alumni may thwart
much of this oPposition by haying a
let to say 'about the naming of two
new, deans. When it comes tune to
replace two of the present deans
very soon and two more in the•near
future, the alumni will endeavor to
see that subsidization proponents get
the positions.
It will be interesting to watch-the
inner chamber politics of ,the next
two years,'
.Despite the fact that the Depart
ment of Public Information goes. to
great pains to convince metropoli
tan sports editors- that we 'really
have something up here—champion-

By WOODROW W. BIEtRLY
After meeting Carnegie Tech last
night, the Lion basketeers will leave
Pittabtirgh. today . for Syracuse where
they face the Orange five in Arch
bald gymnasium tomorrow night.
Forced to leave one of his best play
ers, Mak'Corbin, behind, Coach John
Lawther, with a .squad of nine,' left
here for Pittsburgh yesterday. Cor
bin Was, admitted to the College in
firmary• Wednesday, suffering with an
attack.of influenza. His absence will
be a severe ,handicap to the Lions'
chanced of defeating the strong Syra
cuse onintet and will.necessitate some
shifting of players on the starting
line-up. '
' 26th Game with Orange
Tomorrow night's battle will be the
26th of a series between the Lions
Syracuse. The first game was
played in 1917 and since that time the
Orange have garnered fifteen victo- -
ries to ten for the Nittany cagers.
Syracuse is expected to give the
Lions a good chase on the court to
ingrr9Ny night. • The team. has,won ten
games and lost but four, this season.
Due tcithe presence of so many soph
omores, the team has been inconsist
ent in.its performances, but its 39-
td-25 victory over the Penn quintet
last Saturday indicates that the Or
ange are again hitting their stride.
Orange Captain Injured.
The: starting line-up against the
Nittany five will probably consist of
Bob Stewart and Bill Thompson at
ibrward, Ed Sonderman at center,
and John Ealinsky and John Schroe
der at the guard positions. Johnny
Simonaitis, guard and captain, was
injured. in the Penn
,game and will
probalilyl.be outfor:the remainder of
the sea Son." •
Sonderman is probably the out
standing man that will' play against
the Lions. Standing six feet, - six in
ches, he is 'probably one of the tallest
college centers in the country. Ba
linSky, the other senior who will start,
is one of the squad's best set shots.
Schroeder, Stewart, and Thompson
are sophomores.
Following are the records of the
Lions' six highest scorers for this sea
son. The list includes points scored
in both Cpnference and non-Confer
ence games as well as the total.

had won, Lehigh would have taken
the championship by topping the
one, 32-to-31:
Tapped Indiana .
The Lehigh wrestlers were victori
ous meets with Syracuse,. Lafa
yette, Michigan, Indiana, Yale, and
Cornell.' The Engineers broke the In
diana Hoosiers' string of 34 consecu
tive victories when they won by a 2.6-
15 score at Bethlehem. .Indiana has
championed the Big Ten Conference
for the past six years and. their list
of unbroken victories had extended
for five continuous seasons.
Coach Charlie Speidel has no pre
dictions to make; he knows that it
will be a neck to neck tussle; with the
winner being the team that:.will have
the most upsets to its credit. The style
of wrestling that will take place is
hard to predict. Both teams may be
cautious and use only ortbodbx holds,
cr they may battle "with caption to
the winds" and set out for upsets, or
what 'have you? •
Freddy Stegmaier, 118, out of ac
tion during the past two meets be
cause
of opponents' forfeits, will face
Walt Allen who has won three arid!
lost two. Johnny Craighead, 126,
meets an intercollegiate champion and
Lehigh captain when he wrestles Ru
dolph Ashman who has had an unde
feated season.' Johnny has 'held his
own in past competition and "will be
facing "one tough man."
Zazzi Favored
Aldo Zazzi, 135, goes against Mark
Wolcott, who has won three and lost
two. Wolcott drew with Zazzi's op
ponent of last week, Deme, - in the
Syracuse-Lehigh meet. Al seems to
have a slight edge.
Jack Light, 145, intercollegiate
champ, will carry on against Torn
Reider who has four victories and
one loss to his credit. Jack has won
two and drew once since
. sivinging
into the schedule. Johnny Calvin,
155. draws a strong wrestler and
clever opponent when he tackles Dick
„Bishop, intercollegiate cliaMp. Dick
wrestled for the first time this sea
son in the Indiana meet two weeks
ago and has won three bouts.:

Joseph • Krupa, 165, . runner-up in

seems to be hitting his old stride in
preparation for this bout. Ross Shaf
fer, 175, undefeated so - far this sea
son, is scheduled against ,Walter
Wells, Lehigh's "dark horie," :whom
Engineer followers rate highlY.:.Ross
is meeting. a severe test.
Captain Joe ,O'Dowd will=match

two big boys step out in the unlimited
class. Sterngold has three victories
and two losses.

Positions as Coach Thiel
Bolsters Offense
Penn State's freshman basketball
forces will attempt to break their los
ing spell and gain their third victory
in five starts when they tangle with
Wyoming Seminary's court brigade in
the lone event billed for Recreation
hall tomorrow afternoon. The contest
will get under way at 2 o'clock.
A member or the Northeastern
Pennsylvania Basketball Conference,
the Seminary five is expected to sup
ply tough opposition for the Nittany
Lion cubs.
Shocked by the double dose of de
feats handed the yearlings last week
end by Carnegie Tech and Pitt, Coach
Nick Thiel has bolstered the offense
which went .to pieces in 'the latter
stages of both games.
Only two men will hold their usual
positions in the starting line-up to
morrow: They are "Sonny" Hoffman,
forward, and Franklin Hamm, guard.
Milan Buchan has been shifted from
forward to guard, while Joe Hetra,
made Hoffman's running mate. Mean
while, Willard Doehnert has sup
planted both "Sandy" Kranich and
Howard McWilliams in a spirited,
three-corner fight for the pivot post.

Beginning next October, the divis
ion of mineral industries extension

as the Pacific Coast and Northwest

will have experience against the
clever Lion sophomore.
Another Walsh, Jim, who is Art's

fighter, has also had much experience,
but will meet a much improved op

Although a much improved fighter,
Vito Schiro should not be too much

last year, after which the Badger won
over Maryland's Nadomatsky, South;

Telegraphic Meet With
Oberlin on Program
For Tanksters
Penn State's swimming team will
meet Carnegie' Tech in the Glennland
Pool at 2 o'clock tomorrow. The Lions,
anxious to score their initial ictory,
will present their strongest line.up
against the, Tartans. Three shifts in
the mermen's positions because of the
results of the freshman meet last
week feature the move to add strength
to the team.
An interesting addition Co the meet
will be the introduction of a tele
graphic. contest with Oberlin College
of Ohio. In this meet, the first of its
kind ever attempted at Penn State,
the times of the Lion mermen will
Ib e sent by 'telegraph to the other
school, and there compared with the
times of the distunt team's shimmers.
This means that State will be com
peting with two teams tomorrow.
'Bob Dewalt, who showed tip .remark
ably well as a sprinter in the fresh
man meet. will probably swim the 100-
yard free style cent with Bill Hel
riegel. Dewalt before this concentra
ted his attention on the distance
events and ,his abilities as a sprint
man lire recent discoveries.
Another shift in the positions of
the mermen will see Charlie Welsh,
sophomore speed ace, entered in the
220-yard free style event. Welsh's
change is also due to an extremely
fine showing in the freshman meet.
The third alteration in the line-up
brings Ken Bunk, another sophomore
speedster, to the 110-yard free style
event. •
Dick Geiger and Captain Jim Cum
ming, who have been called the finest
dorsal team, in the East, should up
hold their unbeaten records in the
back stroke. Gil Burleigh, another
winner of numerous victories, will
team with Warren Oliver in the
breast-stroke.
