years.
This year he's picked up 103

Having suffered their first loss in three years at the hands
of the West Virginia freshmen last Saturday, the Lion Cub
gridders face their second test of the season beginning at
10 o'clock this morning when .. they kick-off against the Pitts
burgh frosh on Beaver Field.
The Nittany yearlings wil
them, for Coach Earl Bruce said,
that according to reports, the Pan
thers will field a better balanced
freshman club than West Vir
ginia did last week.
In fact, propaganda eminating
from Skyscraper U. indicates
that this is the best Pitt frosh
team in years. -
Another Nittany skein will be
placed on the line today, for the
Penn State freshman have run
up a string of three wins and

The other change involves a
two-way switch in the back
field. Bud Torris, the Jeanette
speedster who ripped off two
long runbacks to provide the
only sparkle against the Moun
ties last week, has been moved
from his starting fullback slot
to the left halfback post. Dave
Hayes, a 6-1, 208-pounder, will
get the starting role at full.
Chris Web e r, the leading
graund-gainer from scrimmage
!in the Dion Cubs first game, is
Torris' running mate at right
half. •
