Fleming, graduate man ager ,of athletics, announced yes terday. One addition was made to the Fall schedule when Michigan State signed to Meet the Lion crOss-country team October 31• at East Lansing, Mich. Soccer, cross-country, and jun ior varsity football were the sports affected by the changes. Because Pitt was unable to get enough jayvee football players to- . gether for the game with the Nit tany B squad this Saturday on New Beaver Field, officials were forced to telegraph a "sorry but" to Penn State schedule-makers. Pitt officials pointed out that it was impossible for them to get transportation to the Penn State campus this weekend. In addition to a lack of football material and transportation, Pitt's football coaching staff suffered recently when it lost Forrest Eva shevski, junior varsity coach, to the Navy. Evashevski is now playing first-string quarterback for Coach Elernie Bierinan's pow erful Seahawks. • Pitt was forced to cancel its scheduled cross-country meet with Penn State which was to have been run November 7 in Pittsburgh. Reason for the cancellation is that Carl Olson, harrier mentor, has accepted a commission in the Navy.

Higgins last night expressed disappointment at the blocking of Lions during the first two games and during the Tuesday evening scrimmage session. IMuch of last evening's session was devoted to blocking practice. Although he ' would not report the additions, Coach Bob Higgins last night indicated that the trav eling squad for the Cornell game will number 36 players. Thirty players made the Lehigh trip. The contingent will, of course, include Wilbur Van Lenten and Cliff St. Clair, who missed the Lehigh . tilt because of leg injur ies. Another probable member of the traveling . • squad will be Bobby Williams who sparked the Jayvees to their 19 to 19 dead lock last week with the Cornell Jayvees.

The Terrapins - were forced to call off all soccer competition When their coach entered the arm ed services. Attempts to sche dule another game for that Week end did not prove successful and so the local booters will enjoy a week of rest between the Syra cuse and Army games on October 24 and November. 7, respectively. Two possible changes in Satur day's starting lineup may see vet eran Allan Heck return to action at' one of the fullback posts while Max Chenoweth may also start at the center forward slot with Jost Lombana shifted to the outside right position. Heck was not in uniform at yes terday afternoon's scrimmage ses sion, a short one because of the rather soggy field, but indications are that he will see some action in the weekend tussle it he does not start in his old position beside Captain Hap Freeman. . Coach Jeffrey had hopes that the veteran might get into the Bucknell contest and, although he was in uniform, he did not enter the game. Colgate is expected to present oppoSition above the calibre of dettysburg and Bucknell, here the past two weeks. They loom, as at definite threat to the Jeffrek men's new "no defeat" string which now stands at four genies. ;Last year the Lions won a cl6se one from the toothpaste boys, 1-0, their 62nd victory in a row.
