Or -at least th'e'answer to State’s chances. :-- : Rusted by *lO days of inaction ;be -'cause of final-exam , week, the,-Lions have failed to round into shape as rapidly as was expected, and-. Coach John Lawther obviously, is worried. “They are worse now. than they have ever been," Lawther 'says And in that “ever" he includes the-night of December 30, when Akron Univer sity ripped a State outfit that, was -destined to rear back and cop eight in a row. .... Lineup a Mystery- ' An indication of how bad.the Lions have been in practice sessions .this .week may be -gleaned froni the fact that up to last night Lawther had- no ■■idea of the men who would.make the week-end swing, much less of what : the starting lineup would look like. 'Not only have the regulars. heen ; unable to shake off their lethargy, but Sonny Hoffman, who. looks like a budding star, has been laid up with chicken pox. , Meanwhile Temple, conqueror of Stanford's’ Pacific Coast champions, Southern Methodist’s Southern Con ference kings, and Illinois’ Big Ten co-champions, will present a formid able hurdle for the-Lions to overcome.
