Griess, team physi cian,” he will be ready for the Penn game. As for Gorinski, he had a knee injury earlier in the season and right now he is in the infirmary. He may be ready for the Perm game but at this point it’s doubtful.” “The other injuries are not serious, and with Joe Drazeno vich and Paul Kelly ready to go Saturday, the team is in good shape for the coming game.” Coach Higgins was well pleased with the work of the guards and ends in last Saturday’s contest and will start the same linemen who were on hand for the open ing kickoff against Michigan State.

KNOW YOUR BANK The First National Bank of State College Member of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation FRIDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1948 Between Lions ISPUr By Tom Morgan The Neophyte Big Ed Taggart, an eighth-se mester journalism major, was co vering soccer innocently enough for the Centre Daily Times. But when he approached Coach Bill Jeffrey one day for an inter view, the Jolly Scot—always on the lookout for potential soccer men—drafted Ed for his team. The next thing we saw was Taggart guarding the net for dear ol' State in last Saturday's game with Maryland. He ( had never played soccer before being recrui ted last week by Jeffrey, and, for a journ student, we think he makes a cracker jack goalie. Tussle Tonight Nittany Lion football fans who aren’t journeying to Colgate but still want a taste of the gridiron sport this weekend might take in the State College-Tyrone high school fray on Memorial field at 8 p.m. tonight.

Shades of Suhey Paul Kelly, 210-pound titan, clays a lot of football whjle tack ling a chem engineering course at the same time. In the first half of the Michigan State tilt, more often than not we spied Kelly’s “64” on the bottom of the pile.

From the Morg(ue) Quarterback Charlie “Block buster” Drazenovich logged 60 minutes in the Spartan tilt, mark ed by few Nittany substitutions.. Other iron-men were Wally Triplett with 59 minutes and Chuck Beatty with 56 .... Back in 1873, a group of Cor nell students challenged some Michigan football enthusiasts to a game on neutral ground— Cleveland— w it h 30 men to a side. When the Cornell players asked permission to leave their studies to travel to Cleveland, President White of Cornell read their request and made the clas sic decision: "I will not permit 30 men to travel 400 miles merely to agitate a bag of wind." (taken from "The New Encyclopedia of Sports" by Menke.) A Year Left Contrary to popular thought, Bob Hicks, Lion end who’s back in action after sitting out two games, still has one year of col legiate football eligibility left. Although he’s listed as a senior, Bob says, “I’ll be around for next year’s football season.”
