15.000 ' alumni plus more than
5000 students and townspeople
are expected to pack the New
Beaver field stands this after
noon When the Penn State and
Michigan State grid machines
clash in a battle for national rec
ognition at 2 o’clock.
Both the acting president of
Penn State, James A. Milhol
land, and president of Michigan
State. John A. Hannah, will view
the afternoon’s clash of single
wing attacks.
The Spartans’ hopes of break
ing the string of 13 games with
out a defeat compiled by the
Lions were dampened yesterday
with the news that their out
standing defensive end, Warren
Huey, may miss the crucial con
test.
Stellar End
Huey, who was being regarded
as an All-American candidate
after his stellar work in the
Michigan and Notre Dame
games, sprained his ankle in a
scrimmage Tuesday. The injury
is not a serious one, but it is
likely to keep the Punxsutaw
ney. Pa., end out of today’s
game.
As a replacement for the 200-
pound Huey, Coach “Biggie”
Munn has Ed Sobczak. Sobczak
is leading the team in pass catch
ing and is big and fast, but he is
not expected to equal Huey’s
performance on the defense.

'Tri-Dorm Election Results
Invalid/ AIM Committee Says
Results of Thursday night’s elections for AIM council repre
sentatives in each of the Tri-dorms will be declared invalid, Donald
Little, AIM committee chairman, said yesterday.
The elections have been rescheduled for Tuesday night at 6:30
o’clock.
An exceedingly small turnout of voters, 41 out of a total of
almost 300 eligible to vote, caused
little to void results of Tuesday's
balloting.
| Twenty inhabitants of Irvin
hall and eleven each from Watts
and Jordan were all that turned
out for the AIM poll
In making his decision. Little
declared,
“We will not accept as official,
results of any elections for AIM
representatives i n which less
than one-third of the eligible vot
ers cast their ballots.”
The turnout at Thursday’s poll
ing was particularly disappoint
ing in light of the recent recep
tion give n to similar elections in
the Pollock Circle and Nittany
dormitories.
I n those elections, conducted
last week, approximately 50 per
cent of all men eligible to vote
did so.
Chairman Little expressed hope
that at Tuesday’s re-scheduled
elections a much larger number
of men would cast their ballots.
