Comment: Pretty lucky!

pill. And what happened 7 This “foimidable” Penn State team baiely
manages to defeat a much inferior but stubborn Bucknell eleven Piet

' Now don’t get me wrong l I'm not going to rip this vaunted Lion
eleven up the back. Why should I 7 Aftei all, they did win, even
though it was_an unimpressive victory That fact alone piovides some

So You Think The Reds
Feel Bad? Think of Beal
By BERNIE NEWMAN
News Editor, Collegian
' It’s a shame those Yankees had to take foui straight fiom the
Cincinnati Reds If not for Manager Bill McKechnie’s sake, then foi
the sake of Ins lovely daughter, Beatrice.
, Bea, as she is commonly known amongst her Kappa soroutv sis
ters here, will he hack in State College today to resume hei studtes
and if this lepoitei remembers correctly, she will be an unhappy gni
the next few days for two leasons
Or\e, obviously, is the fact that her pop, who only last week cieated
a new lecord in'baseball’s history by taking a thud different majoi
league club to pennantville, had to suffei defeat in such tuthless a
fashion from those Terrible Yankees.
The other brings us back to a
week ago last Thursday night at
the„ Kappa Kappa Gamma house
where joyous celebration ensued
following a telephone call fiom one
of the SAG’s who congratulated
comely Miss McKechme on the tri
umph over the Pittsburgh Pirates
which definitely sewed up the pen
nant foi Cincinnati.
With Reds Two Weeks
It was then and there that Bon
ti ice decided the next two weeks
weie going to see her “on the
road ” For, befoi e we had time
to ask her what she thought of the
Reds’ chances m the Series or of
some human interest angle con
nected with some of her dad’s best
workmen, Paul Derringer for ex
ample, she was off to pack her
bags to leave for Pittsburgh the
next morning and see the remain
ing four games to be played in the
National league.
“Two weeks of vacation. Boy,
oh boy!” That’s all we heard.
Her plans, we later learned,
were also to include a trip to New
York for the first two games of
the Scries, then to Cincinnati for
the next . . .
Well, it’s all over now and you
can see why it’s a shame those
Yankees had to J cut-everything
