Taking Form
Placing of steel rods for third
floor columns began yesterday
at Willard Hall, located opposite
Carnegie Hall on Pollock road.
Riveting of structural steel at
at the Mineral Sciences building,
Pollock and Burrowes roads, and
the start of plumbing work on the
Plant Industries building, mark
the latest point reached in con
struction of the other State-built
campus structures.

week on Willard Hall, the class

forced concrete design.

"FOR A BETTER PENN STATE"
Mountaineer in this, the fifteenth
game of the 25-year-old grid
series. Penn State bested the
visitors, 21-14, in a thrill-packed
contest last year, and only once in
the history of the series have the
Lions decisively trounced the
Mountaineers.
For the first time since the Nit
tany gridders started their victory
string at the “Chocolate Bowl” at
Hershey in 1947 brothers Joe and
Chuck Drazenovich will not ap
pear together at the opening
kickoff.
INJURED
Joe, regular guard, injured his
ankle in the Syracuse tussle last
Friday and will have to watch
the game from the oench while
Chuck performs at the blocking
back post. Coach Higgins Will re
place the 200-pound guard with
Fred Felbaum, substitute lineman
who saw action in both Nittany
contests this year.
Felbaum. junior from Johns
town, weighs 190 pounds and
should be able to help fill the gap
left by the more-experienced
Drazenovich.
A second newcomer to the
starting lineup is John Simon,
who will replace Paul Kelly, an
other casualty in the Syracuse
fray. Simon weighs 195 pounds
to Kelly’s 215, which will con
cede the West Virginia aggrega
tion a total of 25 pounds at both
guard posts.
Two ends, Dennie Hoggard and
Dalton Rumberger, will take
turns at replacing Bob Hicks
Nittany terminal, who was in
jured in the season’s opener
against Bucknel]. Both Hoggard
and Rumberger were members of
last year’s undefeated team.
SMIDANSKY
End John Smidansky will not
appear in this afternoon’s contest,
since the 190-pound sophomore
from Munhall was the victim of
a series of injuries earlier in the
season, and still needs a few davs’
rest before seeing action.
A third gridder hurt in the
Syracuse battle, Larry Joe, is
slated for limited duty since
Coach Higgins is looking toward
the heavy end of the schedule

IFC Explains
Display Points
The point rating system to be
used in judging fraternity Alum
ni Homecoming displays th»6
year has been announced by
Frank Fryburg, chairman of the
IFC lawn display committee.
Basis on which the displays
will be judged are 35 points; ar
tistic ability 20 points, and rela
tion to the theme 10 points. The
maximum point total for any
one display is 100 points.
Best Comparison
The committee feels that this
point system will provide the best
possible comparison of individ
ual displays and satisfy disap
pointed fraternities with an ex
planation of why their lawn dec
oration was not judged best.
Although strict adherence to
the theme, “Penn State Through
the Years,’ 'will not be required,
•at least part of each display
should contain some reference to
it.
Judges Tour
In an effort to obtain some idea
of what to expect in the way of
Alumni decorations, the judges
will first make a tour through the
fraternity section before judging
of the display begins.
Fraternities wishing to enter
the competition must sign up at
the Student Union by noon to
day, Fryburg added.
Members of ifie lawn display
committee, iTT" addition to Fry
burg, are Robert Bossier arid
Francis Kennedy.
Rifle Team
Members of the varsity rifle
team will begin firing Monday ac
cording to a schedule to be posted
on the ROTC bulletin board at
the Armory.
