PLAYER will likely be placed at one Of
the regular tackles today. He is Ger

he becomes accustomed tn the plays
and work with the other men the
better it Will hr fer the general well
fare Of the team.
Bold is a Liz. powerful fellow. who
has had experience on one OF the best
high school teams in the country, and
who has had the benefit of good coach
ing while there. Such a man is
distinct acquisition to a squad. and
undoubtedly is worth his weight in
gold to the hilltop eleven, since the
tackle positions are the very ones
which were thought might be weak.
Every practice at Pennsylvania seems to
be a sort of experiment. George Brooke.
instead of selecting an eleven and going
ahead to develop a certain system, is con-
centrating his efforts to select the best
combination possible. He seems to have
struck one piece of luck in trying out
Young. a lineman of last year, in the
backtield Since placed behind the line
Young ras been the feature of almost
every practice held Brooke is not yet
satisfied, though, and nearly every day
finds a change in the lineup of the
varsity.
Once let Brooke get the right combina-
ton, and he will go ahead to develop a
system of play which is undoubtedly one
Of the best Extensively and extensively in
the country That was shown at Swarth-
more, last year, when his eleven won
from Pennsylvania and the Navy before
it was crippled by injuries. Once Penn
gets going it will be likely to hand out
some surprises to the other teams it
meets.
