The squad was formed about two months ago in l the hope o! introducing rugbj to Penn State. All but three of the players' in the squad had neveri seen a game' of rugby, let alone played it. The first game played was a scrim mage against Villanova in' which the Stale team was soundly beaten 46-3. ✓ The improvement in each scrimmage has been little short of remarkable and at; present the lean has a'2-3 record with wins against,St. Josephs: (contrary to the in the Collegian ar&cle) and on Saturday a fine 9-0 X*n against Penn.
