lacrosse leam against Western Maryland tomorrow. * * • * * * Stickmen Plan To Ambush Western Maryland Squad Tomorrow afternoon, the migrating tribe of Nittany stickmen who have been away for many moons, will engage in combat the fierce lacrosse tribe from Western Maryland.

Sachem Thiel and his lieutenants, Big Jawn McHugh and Little Beaver Baer, urge the reservation out to cheer them on—squaws too. Engle Returns Today, Seeks T Quarterback Rip Engle returns to State College this afternoon to start the reconversion of the Penn State football machine. Engle, here last weekend to sign the contract that made him Penn State’s football coach, returned to Providence, R. 1., to complete his business there. Engle, pioneer in the winged-T formation, will confer with his assistants, A 1 Michaels, Sever Toretti, Frank Patrick, and Jim O’Hora over the weekend. Monday he will resume Spring drills which had been scheduled to close last Saturday. SEEK QUARTERBACK The job of rebuilding the gradu ation-hit Lions will not be an easy one for the 41-year old wing ed-T exponent. Toughest part of the task will be to find a man to fill the vital quarterback role. Engle and his assistants will be seeking a man who can handle the ball from under center and pass well. Engle has said that passing is one-third of his of fense. No indication has yet been given as to whom the staff has in mind for the job, but specu lation has narrowed the choice down to single-wing tailbacks Vince O’Bara, and Tony Orsini, and fullback Len Shephard, all of whom are good passers. In addition to concentrating on the hunt for a quarterback, Engle will show the squad just how things are done the winged-T way. Blocking on the line is al most the same, Engle has said, and there isn’t too much/’ differ ence between getting the ball from center and running with it and getting the ball on a handoff and running.
