At the Colgate game in State College when alum ni and dads were visitors, the band started up the field, and split. in two sections.

Gridiron Squad At Top Strength For Baffle With Their City Cousins PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Nov. 14—Confident that they will give their best against their city cousins this afternoon. 38 Nittany Lion gridders arrived here late yesterday with fire in their eyes and "Beat Penn" signs on their lapels. With 3400 loyal Blue and White followers pooling their transportation facilities to support them at Franklin Field. the Lions are out to repeat the 10 to 0 upset registered against the Quakers in 1939, and to take up where Navy left off last Saturday, when the Middies de feated the Munger-coached squad, 7 to 0. Cavtain Lou -Palazzi • The availability .of Perugini, hurt in the West Virginia game,' is particularly significant. Coach Bob Higgins has found it expedient to shift his guards in pairs depending on whether the Lions are playing offense or defense. Leo Nobile will, however; start in "Perry's" right guard slot. Coach Higgins indicated today that he expects to field the same team that initiated action against - Syracuse. The lineup will find two juniors, rangy Bob Walters, and his slighter-built running mate, Bob Davis, at the ends. "Iron- Man" Ken• Schoonover, senior tackle who has been in the thick of the - fight almost 60 minutes of every game, will term up with sophomore Red Moore at the' tackles. Johnny Jaffurs, whose interceptions of two desperation heaves saved the day for' Penn State last week, will run alongside Nobile at guard. BETWEEN THE LIONS PHILADELPHIA, .Pa., Nov. 14—After a lapse , of two years an other spirited Penn State football squad makes its appearance on Franklin Field, again. a definite underdog, yet cooly confident of. an other "upset" win over favored Penn. Both teams enter the contest this afternoon with nearly identical records—each has tied one and lost one intercollegiate competition— and yet Penn is picked to trounce Penn State. Both teams playei.: comparatively similar schedules. Penn boasts of victories over Columbia and Army, while State balances the sheets with wins over Colgate and Syracuse. State warmed up against Bucknell and Lehigh; Penn against Yale and Harvrrd. State sloshed to a muddy stalemate against Cornell; Penn did the same against Princeton. Penn lost to Navy last week; State got lost in the W. Vir ginia mountains the week before. On the face of this record writers give the nod to Penn. Sir te boasts a brilliant defens:ve line—in fact one of the best de fensive lines in the East. Penn boasts a crushing power attack—one that has amassed a total of 121 points in. six games. State is weak on pass defense—woefully weak as was discovered in the W. Virginia game. Penn, on the other hand, is woefully weak in the way of a passing attack—the Quakers have gained only four yards in four games via the aerial route. Which all proves what? . . . merely that on the matter of past re cord the two teams are exactly evenly matched. (Continued on Page Three) By FRED CLEVER "Whether we win or lose," vow ed Lion Captain Lou Palazzi last night, "Penn will know they are in a football game—and how!!" Traditionally a grudge fight, at least as far as the Nittany Valley lads are concerned, Penn has been victorious 24 times in the series that dates back to the mayhem days of 1890. The Lions have won 10 times, and the two squads have deadlocked on four occasions. Re cent years, however, have found the Lions dominating the series. For the first time this season the Blue and White squad is at top strength. Three players who missed play when the team trounced Syracuse are ready for .action. Bob Perugini, regular guard; Bob Weitzel, reserve full back; and Orient Martella, reserve center, are now in playing condi tion having recovered from minor injuries.
