Nittany cagers will be on the
short end of the odds when they
go under fire in one of their stiff
est battle§ of the year Friday night
in ' New York City as they face
practically the same bunch of
NYU courtment who took State in
stride, last year, 35-29.
Because a fight is scheduled for
Madison Square Garden, where
the New Yorkers staged most of
their home games, the cbntest will
be held -in Heights Gymnasium,
.the NYti floor.
The mainstay of the Violet court
attack, will be -Ralph, kanlowitz;
junior guard. Lion Coach -johii

Chirpin' Charlie Speidel who•is
always on hand with a good yarn,
if you can get him cornered, or
vice versa, springs this little tale
about a wrestler and a boxer:
A couple of years ago, there was
a kid , who tried his doggonedest
to make the varsity grappling
squad . . . One of those lads ,-who
is on hand for every practice, rain
or shine, 'hilt Who has the totitli
luck of not being quite good en=
diigh to gain a Starting field . . .
bile of those boys *limn yeti have
for adihire far his intestinal. fortis
tude and sttiff . . 'Therefore this
Hid was in the dre§shig rdem every:
day end theta he eitme into eontatt
with another youngster, a stringy
lad who. , was swinging leathei for
the Lion boxing team .By virtue
of their afternoon meetings in the
lockets, the two kids became pals
. . Pfetty good pills:
Finally the wrestling kid grad=
,i,iated and went

ventures, and seeking dozrezmi
along the professional mitten trail
. . So Pack Sherwood, the
wrestler and Billy Soose, the box
er, lost track of each other for a
few years . . . Soose, after a Cou
ple of Years straggling, was on his
way up in the leather business ...
His old friend Pack decided to
write Billy a letter, congratulating
him and reminding him of old
locker room times at Penn State
. . . But• just what was Soose's
address? . . . The boxer had been
jumping • from coast to coast as
rapidly as a transport plane with
rockets . . . Pack thought it might
be a good idea to write .to Soose's
manager, Paul Moss, but he, too,
moved out as fast as his pro
tege.
Finally the "wrestling kid" hit
upon the right track . . . A letter
to Sooge in 'care of lick Powell
who had at one time been linked
managerally with Billy . . . So
Sher*ood shipped his letter off to
kollywocid, happy to be penning
a few lines of remembrance to his
old pal.
A few days later Pack Sherwood
got an answer . . . A letter with
a tibllYWood postmark . . . The
letter read: "Remit to me ten
cents in stamps or coin and I will
send you ,any autographed picture."
The letter was signed with a
rubber stamp--Dick Powell.
Rare books from a private col
lection in Cambridge, England,
have been added to the library of
