Norwald Is to Be Played at
Centre on the Penn Eleven
Saturday in Place Of Car
ter, Who Is Injured.

/ Norwald will he first choice for centre
on the Pennsylvania eleven on Saturday
| against Lafayette College. The injury to
Carter led Coach Brooke to look around
for another centre and he chose Norwald
because he had played that position at
preparatory school, and it would not be
like breaking in a new man for the po-
sition. 1t was felt that Borle was too
light for the place as he does not weigh
quite 10 pounds. Norwald made a big
impression on the coaches in yesterdays $
practice. He played very strongly and
passed very smoothly and accurately.
Norwald weighs 1870 pounds, so, with
Journeay on one side and Witherow on
the other. PENIS centre trio should be
able to hurl back even the mighty Kelley
of Lafayette.
The placing of Witherow at left guard
has also caused some surprise this week,
but the young giant has fairly earned
his place through his work on the sec
ond team. He and Hennins. who played
so We'll last Saturday, will be the new
comers on the line, though Hopkins will
be put in first at right end This is
quite a shake-up for the line, but il
worked very well Tuesday and yesterday,
as the men We're much more lively, both
on the Offcnse and the defense,
Lafayette is counting on the weakness
Of Penns line, hut If the above men can
play as well as they did yesterday. the
Eastou men will have rather unpleas-
ant surprise in store for them.
