Wind and Light Rain
Predicted for Liberty
Winlery weather is expected
for tomorrow's Liberty Bowl
game in Philadelphia.
Cloudy skies will combine
with rather strong and gusty
winds and chilly temperatures
to cause rather unpleasant
weather.
There is a slight possibility
that some light rain or snow
will fall during the early
periods of the game, but pres
ent indications show no pre
cipitation during late after
noon.
Winds should be blowing out
of the west or northwest at 12
to 20 miles an hour and tem
peratures will be in the middle
or upper 30's.

Nittanies Have Appeared
In Rose, Cotton Bowls
By JOHNNY BLACK
, When the Nittany Lion grid-
Jders take the field against
| Alabama i n Philadelphia’s
first Liberty Bowl game to
! morrow, it will be only their
third appearance in a post
season bowl. But the Lions are
not novices at inaugurating
bowl games. -
! It was Hugo Bezdek’s iron-man
‘crew that helped inaugurate the
granddaddy of all bowls—the Rose
jßowl back on Jan. 1, 1923.
j Pasadena's famous Tourna
ment of Roses started its annual
football game in 1902 but the
' 1923 battle between Penn Stale
1 and Southern California was
the first game played in the
present Rose Bowl—a huge con
crete oval, seating 101,000.
Names like “Dutch” Bedenk
(All-American guard in 1922, la
ter a Penn State football coach
and now baseball coach), Mike
Palm, “Tinv” McMahon, and Har
ry Wilson dotted the Lions’ small
22-man lineup that made the long
trek westward back in the “Roar
ing 20’s.”
Bezdek’s Nittany Mountain boys
had been the terrors of the East
from 1919 till 1922. They had a
i3l-game winning streak going in
cluding five high-scoring wins in
'1922 (54-0, 28-7, 20-0, 32-6, 33-0)
before Navy knocked them off
midway through the season. The
Lions lost two more games that
fell to Penn and Pitt but still rated

The lads from the central Penn

the mighty Trojans when quarter
back Palm booted a lb-yard field
goal in the first quarter to give
Penn State a 3-0 lead.
But the brilliant line play of
Leo Calland and the "ball
