Fan> who have been watching
the Lions m then daily double
woikouts will attest to the fact
that the ’3O edition of pigskin wai
uois i, light in theie when it
comes to the ol’ college spmt, es
pecially m the two scrimmage ses
sions which vveie-held last Wednes
day and Saturday afternoons
But all the spmt in the woild
wont prevent injuries to the
squadnien Just run ovei this list
of casi alties and then wondei, if
you must, why blue is the favonte
coloi of the Lion coaching staff
light now The most senous is
Chuck Medlar, sophomoie tackle,
who is having leg trouble and
won't be able to get back in um
foim tai at least a week Ankle
and leg injuries seem to be the
style foi the Nittany gridders,
with Captain Spike Altei, Ciaig
White, Bill Smaltz, Leon Gajecki,
all hnv.ng that sort of tiouble
Kniaz Has Bad Cut
Walt Kniaz, counted on as one
of the best tackle bets, is spoiting
a nasty gash on the left side of
his nose, and has been forced to
take it easy for the past several
days Ted Nemeth and Jim Wood
waid, guards, pulled out of the
line in Friday morning’s dull and
accidentally charged into each oth
ei, which resulted in head injur
ies to both men Although the in
juries are numerous, none aie so
serious as to cause the peimanent
loss of any of the players How
ever, the casualties hamper tha
dulls and have slowed the Higgins
men up considerably
A bright spot in Wednesday’s
scrimmage session was the play of
Pepper Fetiella, diminutive soph
omore halfback On the first play
aftei he entered the skirmish, the
Peppei swung aiound end, picked
up his inteifeience, threaded his
way along the sideline and cut
back down the center of the fieU
to score on an 80-yard jaunt It
was one of the headiest pieces of
tunning this wutei has ever seen
Petrella may turn out to be a big
“little" asset to the Lions this fall
Frketich Reports
The Lions got another boost
when Len Fiketich, gigantic soph
omoie tackle prospect, repoited
last week Fiky had been ill at
his home and was unable to re
poit eaiber, but is expected to
make a lot of trouble for the vet
eran tackles for a staiting berth

"This is the yeai
There, in foui shoit words and an ext tarnation point, is the sea
son’s most hackneyed phrase and the peiennml battle ciy of Nittany
Valiev
To the gi een-as-grass freshman entering State this old idiom holds'
some exciting and mysterious meaning which will in time be disclosed
to ouch and eveiv membei of the Class of *4.3 , - s
To the suspicious sophomore this sentence is still a ponderous and
peiplexing pioblem—the answei to which may piesent itself by the
erd of football season
To the hardened junioi the expression holds little more significance
than Dewev’s utterance at Manilla or the town and campus slogan
"You can get it at Getzgers l ”
To the barnacled senior the phiase is a four-word foirv tale that
will nevei come tiue, an absolutely impossible motto, and a dirty lie.
To "The Higg,” as Coach Bob Higgins is known 1 aiound some of
the moie fashionable Tuikish bathes, the expression is a horrible
hoodoo But you can murk this down right now: The Higg is m there
plugging doubly haid this yeai to produce a team that will make this
paiadox a leality And fiom all I have see,*, and heard at practice ses
sions foi the past week, he has a bunch of boys that are going to hate
like hell to be losers at anything from a limiting contest to a Latin-
Amencan i evolution
To me (.if vou have read this far) the passage "This is the year 1 ’
piovides a convenient beginning foi the giidiron propaganda and foot
ball fiddle-de-dee that will appear at intervals in this space for the
next few months

in his annual football mag, names Lion captain Spike Alter, end, and
Leon Gajccki, center, to the All-Amenean check list Another list
predicting the sophomore stais of the 1939 season includes Bill Smaltz,
tiiple-thieat fullback, Len Frketich, 300-pound tackle; and Mike Gar
binski, rugged guaid Whitey Rhoda, former Lion football and box
ing stai, was named head coach of all sports at South Williamsport
High School He succeeds Lou Barth, another former Nittany gridder
who resigned for an assistant's post at Lower Merion High School
Rhoda was selected from'a. list of more than 50 applicants
