Many Alumni ETpected Back One of the features of the second 'Alumni Home Coming celebration will no doubt, be the large number of old grads who will return to their Alma Mater in the effort to revive the days of their youth. The fact-that the first event of this nature was such an un expected success, and that those Who were here lasts year spread the news through the ranks of the alumni, that this is an affair that any former Penn State student cannot afford to miss, forms the basis for the opinion that last year's attendance la to be increas ed many-fold. The new stands were dedicated one year ago with an attend ance that nearly tilled every crevice in the new accommodation for it was estimated that at -least twelve hundred alumni were on hand to see the Nittany Moleskin wearers trample over the big 'green team of Dartmouth with a 14-7 score. This year an estimate under fifteen hundred is to be given cred ence for reports from alumni centers support an approximation of nearly two thousand, exclusive of other per sonages that will•ald In the fete. With such a number back, It may be said that we may expect the greatest con gregation of former grads and students that over assembled at one time at the college. The affair will truly be a great one. Mass Meeting TorJght The drat event In which the old tim ere will figure Is the mammoth masa meeting that will be held In t3obwab Auditorium tonight. The team will be under 'the care of 'Coach ' Bezdek and C. L. Mellinger '22 btu, promised to call upon several members of the Blue ind White team to deliver a speech for the occasion. In fact, Captain Snell has been warned and so we may expect an exceptional address from this warrior. Also at the last mass meeting; Coach Bezdek mentioned the fact that he had a good baseball story ready and would deliver it on this auspicious night. The band wilt render old and new selections so it may be taken for granted that a regular noise feat Is In order. The fact that several a[. the boys of former days who witnessed many a good struggle on the gridiron will tell us how they did It In the past ls an at traction In Itself and provides mufti dent cause for believing tonight's get together wIU be full of pep. Prominent men of the college will supplement these talks and clinch the argument for an unprecedented mass meeting. Operi house at all of the tntternitles In town and on the campus will be In order otter that, and no effort will bo spared to make the men feel at home. At this time, alumni will have an op portunity to visit the different hOuses If they so dealre and look up their for mer classmates who will be looking for them.

H. livicAstae STATE COLLEGE, PA., FRIDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1921 LEHIGH ELEVEN PRIMED Brown and 'White 'Warriors W; 11 Provide Toughest Opposition' Met This Season GAME SET FOR 2:311 Coach Bezdek Has Nittany Team ,In Good Shape—Change Mity Be Made In Line-up , Having completed probably the most intensive week of practice since train ing began, the Nittany Lion is strain ing at its lease and waiting impatient ay for the whistle that will send it against its ancient rival, Lehigh, to morrow afternoon at two-thirty o'clock. Although not in pink of condition, the Nittany players are in as good shape as might be expected at this time of the year and may be counted upon to give Lehigh an exceedingly hard fight. The Brown and Whith eleven, on the other hand, is primed for action and is con fident of overlapping its drawn battle of last year with a stinging victory on Saturday. Four days of scrimmage work this week finished off the rough spots which were uncovered in the Rutgers game. All of the regu lars are physically fit and Coach Glick has moulded together a team which will test Bezdek's men to the utmost. It will be the latter's first real test inasmuch ae the three games that have been played to date resulted in one sided scores for the Blue and White. Six terrific games will follow tomor row's contest, and•the fate of Bezdek's warriors thus hangs in the balance. Should they win, their chances of fin ishing the season successfully will be increased but a loss or a tie will smash ahamplonahlit.expectatione. Fully fifteen thousand football tans are,expected to watch the fray ., Twelve thousand persons saw the Nebraska game last year on Pennsylvania Day but the additional attractions this year connected with the inauguration and Alumni Home-Coming Day have drawn great crowds jo Penn State and 4-rec ord ,attenda-nae is looked . for. To pro vide for the increase, the Athletic Authorities have erected four new wooden stands which will accommodate three. thousand visitors. The field is .now almost entirely surrounded with stands-,. . •Leblib 84it For Great Battle •Lehigh has always proven a most worthy foe for the Nittany Lion and this year .will undoubtedly live up to all expectations. Her 7 to 0 triumph over Rutgers on a foreign soil, indicat ed that she has a powerful team. The entire eleven la heavy, fast, and de pendable on all occasions and employs a charge that is very difficult to stop while its defensive tactics' are also well developed and form a combination that Bezdek's men may not be able to break. Like the Nittany eleven, the Bethlehem aggregation has been train ed to such a degree that the players remain fresh for a comparatively long period and do not collapse after a short length of time. Only three substitutes were sent into the game against Hut gars last Saturday. Because of there being no one-year rule in effect at Lehigh, Freshmen are permitted to try out for the varsity and, as it happens this year, several of the - yearlings have made good and may appear In the line-up tomorrow.

The Student Council also discussed the advisability of holding a "Get Wise meeting for the Freshmen some time in the near future. These meetings are heln In several other colleges with great success In acquainting the new men with the customs and traditions of their Alma Mater, in getting them into activities, and in generally getting the men "in college." The Idea on a small scale was tried out at the meet ings of the 1924 class last year and met with considerable favor.

The reputation of the Mansfield eleven .Made them the favor-. ites in 'the Contest - but the-pant .week's improvement In the Freshman Squad changes the outlook somewhat. Th 6 Freshman team Is developing' into real working organization and ;they , are bound to give a better exhibition of foothall tomorrow morning than they gave last Saturday in the game with Bellefonte. Mansfield has a compara tively light line, but the mon are well trained and know football. Their pow erful driving backfield ,is their main defense and. In this department of the game they are apt to cause the year lings a little trouble. Coach Herman's squad has worked better during the past week than at any other time, despite the Injuries that were received by many of the men. On 'Wednesday afternoon they scrimmaged with the third varsity team and ploughed through Bezdek's men for considerable gains. Competi tion for first' team positions Is still as strong as ever as Is shown by the fact that the backfield representing .the second team gave the third varsity tenni a great deal more trouble than the first Freshman line-up. Several big changes will take Place in the Frosh backfield. Schmidlin who played fullback In the Bellefonte game is no longer available for that job ,as he left town several days ago. All season he has been given a hard fight for the berth by Gregory and Wilson.

Already 'filling that capacity in fact If not in name, this college Is the logical foun dation fora great state university of 10,000 students, he declared. President Thomas', addressing an audience of more than eighteen hun dred peoplo,• more than a hundred of whom were delegates to his inaugural from colleges and universities In all parts of the country, said that Penn State should be-converted into a Penn sylvania State University. More than twenty-two states had already taken the step and the time was now ripe for more. The Inaugural address in full Is, as follows: On Juno 14, 1855, In the City of Harrisburg, at the office of the Penn sylvania State Agricultural Society, the Governor of the State, the Secre tary of the Commonwealth, and seven other citizens met for the organization of a new type of educational Institution in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

Shields, Captain Cooper, Snyder, Edgerton, Enck, Wilhelm, Carter and Hamilton are doing the beet work of the entire squad and It Is about these men that the coach is building. his team. The athletic budget and the difficulty of getting the best college teams to come to State College makes It Impossible for the managers to arrange' a strenu ous schedule.

Attempts have been made to ar range a meet with the University of Pennsylvania and alao with Princeton, but neither attempts has developed in to anything with real significance.

This was the warning given by two members of the enforcement- division 'of the State Liquor Control Board call ed here to attend _ll meeting of the Fraternity Counselors association Thursday night at the Phi Delta Theta, fraternity house. Purpose of t h e meet ing was to consider the legal aspects Involved in the proposal by u number of fraternities that they be allowed to serve beer or liquor. • The Beard officers pointed out that fraternities could not obtain a restaur ant license' because they served no food to the public, while minor mem bers made it impoSsible fur them to be licensed as a club. With regard to; beer parties the Liquor Board representatives ♦ stated that they would be legal provided that all members of the, party are over 21 related stories, yetirs of age and that beer would not be sold or served to anyone outside of the original party They, said that Leer could not be bought . out of fraternity funds.

A rough estimate revealed property damages amounting to several' hundreds of dollars, which must be paid for out of the class treas ury. Margaret K.

Discussion on "Inflation cr Stabil ization" and how if will affect the college student will take place at the conference. A report by Ruth Storer and George Pittinger. representatives to the Pennsylvania Student Gov ernment Association Conference held at Philadelphia recently, was given to Cabinet. The represent atives reported the discussion of .post-war topics as well as current events affecting the student body.

A motion was ap proved by the group to send a letter to the Board of Trustees and President Hetzel endorsing the construction of a Student Hail, Alma Mater They were given notices to evacuate their houses, so many of Penn' State's fraternities went on a "last fling" rampage and caused damage mounting into hundreds of dollars of damage to fraternity, borough and private property. No use making any attempt to stiffle news of the drunken brawl which transpired. To hush up the affair would be undemocratic, and rumors would outdo the truth: Remember one fine day last fall when an All-College convoca tion was called to inform the students of what would probably happen to college programs? And remember the statement that a lot of ad justment would lie ahead? Then at least a month ago a statement was released from the President's Office, and printed prominently in The Daily Collegian that many of Penn State's fraternities would have to combine, or evacuate to make room for an influx of Army students. Friday morning reality came crashing down with the announce ment in the Collegian that nearly a score of fraternities would evacu ate, although nearly all of them had been notified earlier. And Saturday night a lot more than reality came crashing down. It crashed in the form of glass from •street lights, glass from parking meters, broken street signs, a 'ruined porch, a bonfire in the street and a generally rowwdy evening.
