Michigan State Invades Niltany Lair
For Five-Mile Cross-Country Duel
By ROSS LEHMAN
Captain Bill Smith will lead the
Nittany Lion cross-country squad
into its season's debut against the
strong winded Michigan State
harriers this afternoon at half
time in the Penn State-West Vir
ginia fracas.
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.
Michigan State—Anderson, 30;
Mangan, 32; Mills, 33; Monroe, 34;
Page, 35; Scott, 36; Smith, 37; or
Vanvelzor, 40.
Fresh Play Bisons
In Opener, 10 ap.
Handicapped 'by injury and fac
ed with a reputedly tough foe, the
frosh gridders will open their sea
son against Bucknell on New
Beaver Field at 10 a.m. 'today.
Bob Wallace will probably start
at right end in place of the injured
Bob Walters. The rest of the start
ing lineup will be Jack Potsklan,
left end; Dan Halpin, left
,tackle;
John-,Taffurs, left guard; Joe Kray
nack, center; Jim Bonham, right
guard; Bernie Brosky, right tackle;
Aldo Cenci, quarterback; Quentin
PeterS, left halfback; Charlie Mc-
Farland, right halfback; and Jack
Banbury, fullback.
Bucknell is reported to have one
of .its strongest and biggest year
ling elevens in years. The starting
line averages almost 200 pounds
in weight and the backfield is well
over 180.
The starting Bison freshman
team: Ed Martin, left end; Walter
Szot, left tackle; John Speer, left
guard; Cal Neefe, center; Mike
Rawlick, righ tguard; Tom Rodg
ers, right tackle; Leonard Miller,
right end; Tom Kiernan, quarter
back; Al Magagna, left halfback;
Glenn Burkholder, right halfback;
and Jim Beichert, fullback.
West Virginia U. must get a new
"Mountaineer" this fall. The fam
iliar Slim Arnold, who has donned
the traditional garb for the past
few years, tripped to the altar dur
ing the summer and isn't expected
to return to the University.

New Cheering Sections
Bring Favorable Comment
The new cheering sections, lo
cated in each section from the
10th to the 20th rows, met with
wholehearted a p p r oval from
Coach Bob Higgins, Football
Captain Leon Gajecki, and All-
College President Arnold C.
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."

Lions face W. Virginia

of the Bucknell game and scored
the only touchdown, will start at
wingback in place of Craig White.
Veteran Chuck Peters, fully re
covered from the three-week
shoulder injury returns to his old
place at tailback. Pepper Petrella
is relegated to the role of climax
runner after doing iron man duty
in the season opener last Satur
day.
Lion followers pin their victory
hopes on the all-veteran forward
wall. With the exception of jun
ior Mike Garbinski at left guard,
a battle-scarred array of seniors
will attempt to stop Mountaineer
thrusts at the line. Carl Stravin
ski, giant left tackle, has recover
ed from a knee injury and returns
to the starting lineup after miss
ing the first fray.
Veteran halfback Don McCann
will be the Mountaineers' chief of
fensive threat as the visitors hope
to regain their winning form after
dropping a tough 20 to 7 decision
to a formidable Fordham outfit
last Saturday. Southpaw Charlie
Seabright and• Johnny Carlis will
handle the quarterback and full
back assigments respectively. The
only change in 'the West Virginia
backfield will find Dick McElwee
taking over Ike Martin's left half
back spot. •
Coach Bill Kern is expected to
make four changes in the Moun
taineer line. The entire right side
with Johnny Shonk at end, Walt
Pike at tackle, and Tic Peelish at
guard will remain intact. The left
forward wall has been shifted for
today's battle. Tom Gillolly will

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.

Bears Here Today
Cornell supplies the opposition
for the 'first Junior Varsity football
game of the year on New Beaver
field practice gridiron at 1 p.m.
today.
Coach Danny Der Marino has
whipped a squad of 35 men into
shape for the battle and an excit
ing game is assured as Cornell's
junior varsity teams are generally
powerful.
The tentative starting line-up
consists of Shrum and Mall at the
end posts, Hall and Krones at
tackle, Valla and Perugini at
guards, Raysor at center, Stauffer
at tailback, Deidrich at fullback,
Phillips at wingback, Sha,unency
at blocking back.

Between
The Lions
The BIG Game 7;
Usually . the most importaht
game in a football campaign dObs
not come until late in the seaso.,
but the Lions are faced with tho;ir
most crucial battle this afternoo:n,
though it is only the second gai l tle
on the schedule.
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. " - -
A Nittany victory will mean that
the Blue and White gridders can
take almost two weeks• preparatory
work for the next major combat
which will be with Temple , as little
trouble can be expected from Le
high next Saturday. That'll give
Bob Higgins' boys plenty of tiriie
to recover from' present wounds.
Probably you're wondering how
the Lion gridders have taken their
trouble this week, .and whether
they think they can clip the
Mountaineers this afternoon`..Well,
they DO think they can win.:
And so do I, in one of the, most
thrilling games ybu'll see this year,

Though in secret I picked .De
troit to win the World Series in
four games, I'll take a deep-breath
and hold it until:
Pitt blimps off Southern. Meth

Boston College tars and feathers
Temple. NYU hangs one . on Syra
cuse. Ohio State edges out North
