Saturday. The Lions dropped their open ing game of the season to a strong Colgate squad at Hamilton, N. Y., three weeks ago by a 6-3. score. Their scheduled tilt with the Nav al Reserve on the College courts was rained out - June 27, and will be re-scheduled for later in the Summer. The faculty team . will be led by Ray Dickison, graduate student in chemistry. A complete start ing lineup has not yet been an nounced for the .faculty squad. For the Lions, .Cy Hull will again lead off at the number one spot, and Herb Kraybill will play at number two. Coach Roethke has not named a definite starting order yet, but has indicated that he will use as many of the soph- Omore newcomers in the match as he can. No Frosh Baseball Games Scheduled Because his .freshman baseball nine has not had enough practice sessions and lacks a suitable pitcher, Coach Leo Houck has not scheduled any games as yet for his novice squad. The main difficulty in holding drills, the Lion mentor_ stated, is that most candidates for the team are engineering students and can not get out to workouts until after 5 o'clock as their classes are not over until then. HoWeyer, many men have been turning out and working hard during practice sessions and will probably assume first squad perches at the start of the season. These candidates are Wayne Kreidler,•first base; Jack Gracey, third base; Charles Daubert, shortstop; Jerome Stern, catcher; Bud Davage, second base; and Jack Landy, H. Jung, and M. Speizer, outfielders. Finding hurlers for the year lings is still a critical situation. Men who have tried out for the position have proved unsatisfac tory and, as a last resort, Coach Houck is attempting to convert infielders Anthony Mazzocco - and Fred Shaw and catcher Jack •Ber lin into moundsmen.

One of the first requisites of a nation at war is the physical fitness of its citizens. From this' corner we have seen no concerted moves for an expanded physical program for the student body. Whether this is caused by a lack of facilities, personnel, or in. itiative we do not know. But the fact remains that the majority of the nation's colleges have made provision for more 'extensive physical programs than are carried on during peace time. For example, Yale University now requires three physical periods a Week for each -Mein ber of the student body. Sure It Would Mean Wbrk Granted, such a mass physical program would entail additional work and equipment. Regardless of the effort involved, however, it seems to us that this should be the next item on the College's docket for war preparedness. From two sources we have heard rumors con cerning the building of an obstacle course on the campus—from both Scabbard and Blade and the Phys Ed School. Since such an obstacle course would provide an ideal method for a mass fitness program, we suggest that plans for such a course be transferred from the realm of rumors to that of action as soon as possible. Aside from required phys ed periods for all students, the only alternative that occurs to us is that of required intramural activity. Cbmmendable as this might be, our present intramural setup is not large enough to give all students the opportunity of participating. The ROTC Department has taken the cue and is now giving ROTC classes regular calisthenic drills. But this is not enough. The war will not be fought only by freshmen and sophomores. What we need and need desperately is an All-College physical program. What we would like to see is a whole field full of freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors taking organized calisthenics, running over an obstacle course, or receiving some other beneficial type of physical activity. Let's not limit our contribution to the nation's war effort to giv ing up floral corsages and kissing the boys goodby. Let's recognize that a basic requirement for a nation victorious in war is the fitness of its citizens. The students on Penn State's campus are preparing for their part in this struggle. Let's prepare them properly—physi-: cally as well as mentally. Victory Weekend Suggests-- A Defense Stamp Corsage MPH HOP PAGE TEM3a • t o, • e " • LARRY TAYLOR • THE 'CHEROKEES'
