This was evident last weekend when Dartmouth "substituted" the Orangemen "blind," and beat them 20-14. Since the Lions are about three deep in each spot, they should be fav ored to win Saturday's game. Incidentally, this will be the first night game for the Blue and Whit e since they beat New York U., 42-0 in 1941 under the lights. Michigan State, whom 'the Lions meet next on home grounds, won their opener but were overpowered by Boston College 34-20, The Higginsmen will have trouble with the Spartans, for Michigan State can be unpredictabl e as was the ease last season when the Nittany crew was walloped to the tune of 33-0. iColgate 'held Yale last week for two periods, but weakened to lose 27-6. The Lions should h e well seasoned for thi s game to come through with a victory. Penn State's gridders received 10 points in the Associated Press' first weekly poll of 1946 to determine the ten best teams in the coun. try. Texas Longhorns, who have averaged 57 and one-third points per game against Missrouri, 'Colorado and Oklahoma A. & M., landed the top spot in the poll with mighty Army running a close second. Notre Dame, Michigan, UCLA, Alabama, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Tennessee and Northwestern complete the top ten list.

Presented To All Students By THE X-GI CLU SWEET at the Harriers Head For Syracuse With three lettermen from the 1942 National championship cross country team to bolster the Nit tany Lion hopes, Coach Chick Werner and a squad of eight will head for Syracuse for the first meet of the season tomorrow. Lettermen Jerry Karver. one of tomorrow's starters, ran 1000 yards in :12.6 record time to de feat former champion Joe No 7 wieki in the Knights of Columbus Game s in Madison Square Gar den. This was the fastest race of the year in that distance. Another lettreman is Curt Stone who was the inter-collegiate out door 2-mile champion in 1943 when he covered the distance in 9:27 at Randall's Island, N.Y. Captain for the Lion harriers in this meet against the Orange men will be Howie Horne, another member of the 1942 team and an outstanding Werner prospect. In addition to the three letter men, Horace Ashenfelter, Pink Candy, Don Longenecker, Bernie Rudnick, and Mitch Williams will make the trip. Since neither Syracuse nor the Lion s have had a cross-country team since 1942 when the Lion harriers scored a perfect score of 15-40 against the Orangemen, the outcome of Saturday's meet is a question mark. Bob Grieve, who formerly assisted Werner at Penn State, is the Syracuse coach.
