CHARLES
Well, this week the Lions
climbed up to eighth place in the
Associated Press football ratings.
The big problem is, when do we
reach the top? We’re sure to be
there by the end of the season if
Michigan, the current holder of
the top spot, Notre Dame, and
North Carolina slip into a losing
streak, if California and Georgia
Tech drop a few games along the
way, and if the Middies surge up
to defeat Army. Then the Lions
push Penn all over Franklin Field
and we’re in. That’s all there is
to it.
Don’t look so happy, girls; just
because Penn State has added
Army to the ’49 and ’5O schedule,
it doesn’t mean that you’ll get
a close-up of the Cadets. It’s a
shame, but both games will be
played away.
There seems to be a demand
for mirrors at New Beaver Field.
The sophomores have no objec
tions to holding and turning those
blue and white flash cards, but
they would like to see how it
looks.
In case you didn't discover it
for yourselves, we’d like to pass
along the word that those cards
are quite convenient if you forget
those sun glasses.
Blue Ribbon Lion
If the girl who wants the Lion
to wear a blue and white bow
around his neck brings us the
ribbon, we’ll see what can be
done about it.
Before beginning your football
education, gals, there are just a
few things you must bear in
mind; the players are essentially
honest even if you do hear about
someone stealing the ball; a
lighted torch isn’t needed to suc
cessfully execute the “Statue of
Liberty” play; and a tackle has
nothing to do with ships.
If you have no portable radio
of your own, just sit near one at
the game. Follow closely, and
you’ll soon realize that there actu
ally is a science to football.
