PENNSYLVANIA A 1 Michaels, one of,the three White coaches, was quibk to dis count the Blue’s pre-Easter scrim mage victory as of no consequence because the squads weren’t full and “it didn’t count.” For Satur- scrap Michaels, who piloted the .Blue/ to victory last year, says ‘this is the big game and we didn’t come here to lose.” Sever Toretti, another White coach, admonished that “the White team has. many surprises in store for the Blue, although nothing fancy.” The Penn State grad further stated that although the Blues have shown lots of pep so far, his Whites will not be “sleeping dogs” come Satur day at 2 p.m.. kickoff time. Squads Attempt Bargains Discounting the coaches’ par tial comments—head -Coach Rip Engle said President Truman would stop the presses if all their comments were printed —it ap pears th'at * the Blues have the better line but the Whites will probably show backfield super iority. The two squads have been bar gaining to make player swaps to strengthen various positions but O’Hora’s demand for two to one swaps appears to be the snag. Last year the Blue’s Paul An ders slashed of tackle for a 15 yard touchdown run which proved to be the only score in a hard fought game. Bill Hockersmith kicked the extra point for the 7-0 victpry margin which-the Whites fur iously battled to overcome throughout the ball game.
