A victory for Penn State over Cor

Defeat might have a psychological dis

Megrail Considered
For McEwan's Post
By ROY B. NICHOLS
It looks as though Frank Megrail
.may fill that hole left by all-Amer
ican Bill MeEwan at the center-for
ward position on Coach Bill Jeffrey's
1937 team. Jeffrey had Megrail play
ing the pivot post in scrimmage Sat
urday, and his performance warrant
ed such expectations.
Scoring two out of four' attempts
in- a varsity-reserve scrimmage, Me
grail's well-placed shots brought back
pleasant memories of Bill McEwan's
tally kicks. Another goal by Walt
Painter, center hafback, made the .6:
nal score 3-0 in favor of the varsity:

THE PENN STATE COLLEGIAN
,Economoi Definitely Out Of
Opener, DeMarino May Play
Co-capt. Johnny Economos is defin-.
itely out of , the Cornell- game' this
Saturday. And there. is ,the possibil
ity; unless his knee responds to treat
ment better -than it has, that he will
be lost
. to . the team for the rest of
the season. '• - '
•• This leaves a hole in the line that
will be hard for Coach - Higgins to fill,
since Economos Was a standout at his
guard post, a bulwark both on offense
and defense. Coach Higgins has been
trying a number of men, at this spot,
and it looks 'as though either,Joe Peel
or Charlie Thompson will•get the call
ngainst the. Ithacans.
More news on the injuries situation:
Danny DeMarino, veteran tackle who
has been Ailing with astrained back,
seems to .be rounding into shape, and
although Higgins doesn't expect to
start him against Cornell,. Danny will
probably sec action in . part of the
game. ,
. .
Other members of -the squad are
suffering from bad-bruises, wrenched
knees, and colds. They should all -be in
shape for -the season opener, although
they were not used in Saturday's prac
tice scrimmage with Locknaven State
Teachers College.
Head linesman was the,injured De-
Marino; other linesmen .and whistle
testers were Alex Barantovich, varsity
end who has a bruised' shoulder; Carl
Watigaman, another veteran end out
with a: wrenched knee; and Grover
•Washabaugh, a promisiong sophomore
end candidate who has been bothered
by inflamed knee tendons.
Dean Hanley, varsity , tackle out
with a
.sore foot, and Tony Giessen
tonio, junior• halfback who has a bad
cold, were not up at New Beaver Field.
Johnny Patrick, flashy back, was in
uniform,. but Coach Higgins did not
use him since he is pretty badly bruis
ed. And .of 'course Carl Stravinski,
sophomore tackle, who will be out for
about four weeks with-a broken ankle,
was not used.
McAndrews Pins Frosh Hopes On Blocking

But, even with all these first-string
ers incapacitated, the team did well
against the big Black Legion from
Lock haves. Naturally, flaws were to
be found—the purpose of the whole,
.affair being to uncover any mistakes
and attempt to correct them this week.

.Joe Adessa at the ends Bill Ellwood
And Ted Nemeth, tackles; Tor Toretti

center; And Harry Harrison, Co-capt.
,Sammy Donato, Lloyd Ickes; and Joe
Metro, in the backfield.
, This aggregation, augmented
•throughout the game by the whole
squad,. held the Teachers to one first
down, the main flaw in the Lion. de
fense being that they didn't cover
the field very well. Lock haven only
. tried a couple passes, completing both
of them. The team is notably weak in
this department, and must improve
considerably this week—Cornell has
big, experienced ends!
Alter played a good end game, and
Conch Higgins was "delighted
,to see
him block a Lock Haven punt. There
is nothing more demoralizing for a'
team than to have a kick blocked and
recovered by the opposition," he ex
plained. Adessa, at the other end, was
quite a, disappointment; he was not
so aggressive, and was continually
being swept out of play by the oppos
ing interference.
Chr I the,offensive, the team was par- ,
ticularly successful in working wide
reverses for long gains, and big holes
were opened by the line for many suc
cessful center and off tacke thrusts.)
