Roaring a challenge across the high Nittany hills, the Lions are prepared to combat a Spartan seven which includes five veterans on its roster, including Captain Eddie Mills who placed 13th in the IC4-A's last year and Al Mangan who was the U. 'S. Olympic 50,000 metre walking champion in 1936. Lightweight Bill Smith, who turned in a 26:54 time-trial this week, is expected to show the Spartan harriers his flying feet in the five-mile grind today. The number two and three spot has caused Coach Chick Werner plenty of trouble because the ma jority of the squad has run a 28 minute mile, almost two minutes behind Smith's anticipated time. Alex Bourgerie and_ Max Peters have indicated that they may be potentipl running mates of Smith, but so far have failed. Today may be the answer. Only one change in State's line up has been announced. Vern Kotz, recently recovered from an injury will replace Clair Hess, who placed seventh in this week's time trials. The lineups with numbers fol low: Penn State---Smith, 1; Bourg erie, 2; Peters. 3; Thiel, 4; Kotz, 5; Snyder, 6; 'Wheeler, 21.

Laich. In a statement today, Higgins said: "I believe that if a cheer ing section gets together, they'll have a lot of fun. Good cheering is . bound to have an affect upon the team." "Cheering like we had at the Pitt game gets the team into proper spirit," said Gajecki.• we have the crowd behind us, we feel we can't lose." Laich's opinion -was, "Having the cheering section centralized can't help but work. I like the idea of getting the cheering here at Penn State organized." 11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 Lions face W.

Jeffreymen Face Tough Foe In Second Baffle By BILL McKNIGHT Bill Jeffrey's ace booters will attempt to chalk up consecutive victory number 55 at 1 p. m. to day when they meet the Western Maryland soccer eleven here in the second game of the Lion sea son. • The Green Terrors bring a team composed of seven regulars from last year's squad. The last time the Nittanymen opposed Western Maryland was in 1938 when the Lions outmaneuvered and out played the Terrors to the tune of 12-0. This score was almost a.colleg iate record in itself and it may be that today the Penn State booters will surpass even that total. The Lions held a light practice yesterday afternoon, the greater part of which was taken up din demonstrations for the benefit of the _photographer from Life mag azine who is on the campus to make a pictorial record of the squad for a future feature in Life.

If the Lions get through WOt Virginia, hampered as they ate with worst crop of--injuries since New Beaver Field was a cow pas ture, then you _can bet that_ the 1940 State teani will turn a good season from here on in: The Mountaineers will take the field today, anxious for blood and pride, having lost last week to Fordham. State will take the field, probably at its lowest ebb, minus at least three of its most capable performers.
