Talk About (Continued from page four) . . No sooner does he step on Penn Stale soil than he be comes possessed of new life* He meets the boys whom he has not seen for many a year; he talks of the times when they had real class scraps and mur derous games; he shakes the hand of an instructor whom once he thought of blackjack ing; he walks up the street as though he owns the town. He does; there is no disputing his ownership. // “ . . . And on the trip home, as he sits and muses over the, many things that happened, of the many friends whom he met, and of the welcome he received, he leans over to Bill, "Gee, but it was great'." But "there were other alumni 'days—ln 1924, the Nittany Lions dropped their first game on Bea ver Field since 1918 to Syracuse, 10-6, and a Collegian presidential poll had Coolidge way in front of Davis and LaFollette in that elec tion year. __ A year later saw Knute Rockne bring his Fighting Irish to Nit tany Valley to highlight the alumni reunion, and' with Gray, Weston, McCann, and Michalse shining, the Lions held Notre Dame to a scoreless draw. The Homecoming battle in 1927 was a different story. Intercept ing nine passes, and with Roepke, Lungren, and Craig leading the way, State romped to a 40-6 win over Lafayette, one of the few high scoring Homecoming con tests. At the tenth Homecoming celebration two years later it was once again and it was Yutz Diedrich, a half back, who scampered 60 yards on the last play of the.game to give the Lions a 6-3 win. It was one of the truly great moments in Beaver Field history. Ten thousand visitors crowded int 6 State College in 1930 to cele brate the 75th anniversary of the founding of the College; State lost to Colgate 40-0; but President Ralph Hetzel paused to predict that Penn State in 1950 would show an advance to 10,000 stu dents, a pretty accurate predic tion. Thespians advertised that “The Depression is Over” in plugging their “Panics of 1931”, and the Nittany Lions in their second year under Bob Higgins fell to Pitt 40-6 in that year’s Homecom ing attraction. Hoover took an overwhelming straw vote victory on campus in 1932, and that year’s Homecoming attraction was about 60 seconds THE DAILY COLLEGIAN- STATE COLLEGE.
