Thiel Proposes Voluntary Phys Ed Program
BETWEEN THE LIONS
It isn't usually my policy to make an endorsement. In fact, ever
since the time a personal check bounced back and caught me with my
Wallet down, I've been almost as reticent as a Republican about en
ildising anything.
But there is always an exception to every policy—in this case it's
the, basketball raffle, sponsored by AR-College Cabinet, svhiCh will
make its debut between the halves of the Penn State-Colgate court
collision in Rec Hall tomorrow night.
• Since the time my hometown Sunday School teacher caught me
matching pennies with one of the wealthier Wards in the class, my
cOaacts' With games•of Chance have been few and well scattered.
But with this basketball raffle it's different—you see, nobody
• • loses: Instead of paying out money for a mere chance at a prize,
• you purchase a 25-cent war stamp. In other words, you're freezing
your liquid assets.
. .And that isn't all. Chief Raffle-man Bill Briner, after a week of
thumping the drums, has been able to fatten the ante with four other
prizes
.:Second prize will be a bloc of five (5) subscriptions to the Daily
Collegian-:--that's this paper. If you can't find sufficient spare-time to
read . all, five yourself, you may haVe them mailed to friends residing

' The next prize will be two (2) subscripiioni to Froth—that's

• Penn State's Nittany Lion bask
etball squad will be gunning for
its seventeenth consecutive vic
tory on the home court when the
blue and white squad tangles with
the Red Raiders 'of Colgate Uni
versity in Rec Hall, 8 o'clock to
morrow night.
Undefeated on home soil since
February ^G, 1941 when the cage
squad from West Virginia Uni
versity toppled the Lionmen, Law
ther's boys will try to keep their
home streak intact and get back
into the victory column after drop
ping a one-point decision to the
Pitt Panthers last Saturday.
Although the Red Raider five is
of an unknown quality, the cagers
from Hamilton, N. Y., may pull
an upset on the Lion in-and-out
team.
The Lions were successful in
their last game with the Colgate
five, when they thoroughly
trounced the Red Raiders 58-35.
After tomorrow's game, the two
squads will tangle again at Ham
ilton which will be the next to
the last game of the season for the
blue and white.
,Coach John Lawther put his
quintet through a long practice
session in preparation for -tomor
roWs battle. Whitey Von Nieda,
ternporarily out of service from
illness, will be at the helm when
the starting whistle blows, unless
something unexpected should turn
up.
Lawther has been shifting his
reserve players into the guard po
sitions in an effort to keep down

the possible high-scoring of the
Red Raiders. From past experi- --
ence, when several of the start
ing lineup would be ejected from
the tilts via the foul route, it has
been proved that replacements
must be ready to assume guard
duties when regulars .leave the
game. Bob Beck and Jim Lawther
have handled the guard duties ex
cellently during the past few
games, but the experience of reg
ulars Egli and Baltimore adds to
the effectiveness of the famed
sliding-zone defense.
The first stringers were put
through a thorough drill in de
fensive playing to bottle the of
fense of the Colgate Reds.
Starting lineup for tomorrow's
game will include Co-captains
Johnnie Egli and Herk Baltimore
at the guard slots, rangy Dave
Hornstein in the center position,
and Whitey Von Nieda and
tle" Larry Gent at the forward
posts.
Jim Lawther will undoubtedly
see plenty of action after playing
a bang-Up game last week at
Pittsburgh.
Jack Bieiy, set-shot artist, Sid
Cohan, reserve guard, Bob Beck,
and Perk Stabley will be on re
serve for the tilt.
Between halves of the game,
the Victory Raffle will be run off.
The game basketball will go to the
first-prize winner, • but the lucky
ticket-holder will have to "lend"
the ball so that the game may
continue through the second half.
A win tomorrow night will rack

Wrestlers Prepare
To Meet Teachers
In Grappling Duel
Showing the same stamina and
ability in practice as they did last
Saturday when they blanked the
University of Syracuse's matmen
by a 30-0 count, the Lion wrestling
squad is readying itself for its
bouts tomorrow afternoon against
Lodk Haven, Pennsylvania 1942
wrestling champs, in Rec Hall at
2:30 p.m.
According to Coach Paul Camp
bell, the Lock Haven squad is not
going to be an easy victim in as
similating State's mat attack, but,
hoping that his squad will exert a
little extra energy against the
Lock Haven "grunt and groan"
men, the coach expects them to
emerge victors. •
Starting lineup for Lock Haven
has not been - set as yet and no
word has• been received from the
State Teachers' College as to what
members of their team will arrive
here Saturday to participate in the
competition.
Slots for the Nittany charges
will be filled by either Kryder
Mattern or Bob Lowry in the 121-
pound class; Co-captain Charlie
Ridenour at 127; Co-captain Sam
Harry. at 136; Al Crabtree at 145;
Oardner Lindley. or Charlie Dipner
at 155; Fred Reeve or Chuck Hall

PlaVO to Give
'The Mood Is Min,'
Pistverhil War. Plat
Of coufse, it is not hard to iden
tify the "conquerors" in the ,play
with their Nazi prototypes, and in
like .manner, the "conquered coun
try" can be Norway. Much discus
sion has been raised by critics on
Steinbeck's 'treatment of the con
querors as human beings—and not
as "Aryan-pure supermen."
But from newspaper reports of
rebellion and cracking of morale
by Nazi troops engaged in the
occupation and subjugation of in
vaded countries, Steinbeck's idea
hits very close to the truth. And
his statement, ". . . a free, brave
people are unconquerable" seems
to have been borne out by the
underground movements of occu
pied countries.
In brief, "The Moon Is Down"
is the story of the invasion of a
small, mining town by enemy sol
diers after the way had been
paved by the local Quisling. The
"Fatherland" needs the coal in
dustry of this town, and the ene
my army of occupation has to see
that the fuel is kept moving out
of the country. From passive re
sistance, the inhabitants begin an
active campaign against the ene
my using as weapons the invaders'
own nerves.
Eventually, the enemy com
manding officer—who is one of
Steinbeck's humane soldiers—is
forced to resort to the holding
and killing of hostages in a vain
attempt to quell the growing mu
tiny of the populace. The story of
how the invader soldiers them
selves begin to crack under the
strain, and the quiet heroism of
the town fathers, shows Steinbeck
to have produced a powerful and
magnificent drama of conditions
as they exist in the world today.
DON'T FORGET PENN STATE'S
VICTORY RAFFLE!
