Dating in spurts from 1913 (State's first year in the intercollegi ate ranks) the records show a Penn State bulge of nine games to six over the Quakers. A glance through past-year scores indicates a traditional hard-fought low scoring_ contest in the brew. One advantage in favor of the Philadelphians—in addition to playing, on their home field— is that they already have copped four games this year.

Last year State defeated its East ern Pennsylvania rival, 13-4, at Philadelphia as the Nittanymen rolled on to a seven and three season. According to Nick Thiel, head lacrosse mentor, Penn has po tentially a much stronger team this year than in 1948. Basing its attack around a group of varsity holdovers, Penn also features an outstanding crop o f sophomore rookies, several of whom have earned recogni tion while cavorting with Balti more Prep School teams. The State stickmen, in an ticipation of the Quaker encount er, held their final big scrimmage Saturday. They played an intra squad varsity tilt and followed up with a tussle between last year's Jayvees and the present crop of Jayvee stickwielders.

Assistant Lion Coach Earle Edwards, using all the men in his command outside of last sea son's returning veterans, called the session satisfactory and thought it proved worthwhile to both squads. The Lions ran from their variated single-wing forma tion. Following the example used in intra-squad scrimmage s, the teams eliminated point - after touchdown tries and kickoffs.
