PPf Dad: Just got your lettpr saying you might not be able to get down for the weekend Saturday after next, so I thought I’d better let you know how much you’ll miss if you don’t make it. \ I don’t know whether they’re jiist joking or not, but a lof of fgllows here at schop.l are talking Qrange Bowl, Sugar Bowl, and such. I’ve neyer heard that kind of talk at State before, so maybe there’s something tp it all. Qf course, Bpb Higgins and the' other coaches aren’t talking that way, and you can’t blarpp them. A coach can’t just predict at the beginning of the- season that his teapi will b,e basking }n Jhe sun light of the Sugar Bowl on New Year’s Day. I never heard of a coach who did, grid Bob is about as conservative a fpll°w 3 s I’ve ever met. So on Saturday, October the Ljpns will begin this highly an ticipated ypar against a question ably Biicknell tgam. IdPst yyeiy qqe here can’t see anything but a Ndtany Victory by at least three qp |qpr touchijowhs- J wqpt you tp be qn hand to see °ur boys get off pn the right foot. ' And shoiild' b.eppuse when you regd up and dpwn that lineup —Vargp and Parsons at ypds, the tackles Stravinski and Platt, Mori and Oarbinski at guards, Qaptain Gajecki at center, you wonder what short of a Pqpzer division copld penetrate it. the baCk field of Smaltz, Patrick, White and Fetrglia is one which should pass,, run, and, kick the. Bucknell Bison into a period of suspended animation. But don’t think that the football game wIU be ali in store for you that weekend. There’ll be plenty qf smokers, etc., arqqnd tq take in. So don’t let me down Pop, be cause it’s going to be a great weekend and planned just fqr yop. Give my love tp Mother and I’ll be seeing you next Saturday.

Peters Returns To Lion Lineup The return qf Chuclc Petprs to the squad yesterday aftprnoqn was the one bright note 'in the Lioq camp after the three serious in juries suffered Monthly. Peters, regular tailback, has been out of action for two weeks with, a separated right shoulder and though he won’t get any con tact work for' several days, he might be ready for the opener With Bucknell, October 5. Any hopes that Bob Davis, sophomore end, might be qf ser vice to the sguad this-year weye dispelled by the report that the diminutive Monongahela Wt b 6 wps opt for the entire campaign with a broken left collarbone. Davis will probably drop out of College for the semester. To the reported injuries of Davis and Bayley was added that of Earl Brown Who turned up yesterday with a separated left shoulder. The scrappy fullback wili'he out pf action'for ten (Jays. Coach Bob Higgins converted Len Krouse, junip.r'wingback, into an end for the time being to fill the vacancy left qpen by Davis’ injury. Krouse is noted for his pass receiving ability and may be just the man to help ths Lions out of a hole. Another end wbb might develop is John Egli, regu lar" on the freshnpep team last ygar. Egli returned to the squad after g- three week absence and Higgins liked the bqy’s work. ' The first v two teaip? finally, clicked in yesterday's ?oqmmage.

The date is Saturday, October 5, Dad’s Day, and a record crowd pf proud fathers is expected to accompany the students to the New Beaver Field for the opener. Great things are expected of the State team this year. Some nation ally known experts even go so far as to predict an undefeated cam paign for the Lions and rate them as high as thirteenth in the na tion. The basis for this assumption is that nine of the regulars from last year’s strong eleven are back in action. But, while Coach Bob Higgins will he able to field to gether a veteran eleven this year, he’s already beginning to worry about the first hurdle on the schedule. Bucknell will he as tough as ever. ‘Coach Al, Humphreys is moulding together a well balanced unit as is evidenced by the fact th§t no less than three good can didates are competing for each Varsity berth. An even distribu tion qf experience is in prospect since the varsity group which forms the nucleus of the squad is composed pf 10 sophomores, 11 juniqrs, and 11 seniors. Qn the brpad shoulders of Jim Brandt rests the fortunes of the Bucknell team accprding to re ports coming out pf Lewisburg. Th e triple - threat, 190 - pound spp.hpmqre bpck w as a sensation ipitil' he hijurgd his knee last year. His playing can 'make the Bisons a good team, instead of only a fair one. If his knee sur vives the pre-season preliminary bumps, the Lions will have their bonds fuU.' holding Brandt .in check. This will he Bucknell’s 55th spason of intercollegiate football,’ apd although they play State in the opening game of the 1940 schedule, the Bisons will be geared up for this game more than any other. ’Dew' Of Equipment Marks 20lh Anniversary Shoulder pads, .lacrosse sticks, footballs, , baseball bet?, injury pads, track shoes, javelins—for 20 years one man has passed out all the countless pieces of equipment used in Penn State sports.
