Bob FoIweII to be Offered Contract for Two Years-Wray Refuses to Run for Captain.

for Captain.
 The Pennsylvania football commit tee met Wednesday afternoon in the Athletic Association offices at Frank lin Field and after a two-hour ses- sion refused to divulge what had taken place. Before the meeting 1t was rumored. however, that Bob" Folwell would pbe offered a two-year contract After the meeting Mana ger Lovett stated that the present football committee would not appoint the coach, but that the new commit tee which will be elected within the next week by the undergraduates at the University will attend to this mat ter.
 None of the IT embers of the com mittee would express himself in re- gard to the coaching question or the schedule, other than saying that the schedule was not as yet complete ow- ing to the fact that they were still awaiting answers from several col legeS in regard to the dates the games were to be played.
 Despite the many reports that 'Lud" Wray would return to college next fall and would therefore be eligible for the captatncy, he emphatically denied the statement yesterday afternoon "I cannot understand where the runor could have started" Wray said, "as have decided not to take a post-grad- uate course" Coach Tolwell would very much like to have the services of Wray again next year, as he thinks the Penn center man one of the best men he has ever seen in that position. Tt would certainly bolster up our de- Tense and give me a good reliable man for the center of the line." Folwell said: but Iud' cannot see his way clear to say another year in college" Clem Urquhayt, the end might come back next year, and if he does the Red and Blue team can be assured of having two of the best ends in the country, with Miller on the other wing. ,..
 The varsity picture will be taken on Monday, and at that time the election for captain will take place. There are three men who stand out prominently for the position. They are Miller , Derr and Bell. Miller and Derr ap- pear to have the best chance for the honor, as they both have been play ing regularly on the team for the last two years. Both these men would make admirable captains as their in dividual playing would be an inspira- ton to the rest of the team

 will play ol New 4Dar's Day at Pasa- dena, Cal. Gus" was line coach at the University of California, where Andy Smith. the former Penn tutor, was head coach this past season.
 ''The Oregon team is in wonderful physical shape and I have never seen better looking crowd of football men in all my life." said Ziegler. "All the men stand six feet or more, and they are of the rangy type, quick and strong. You will have to go some to beat them, too, as have seen them play not only against our team, but against the University of Washing ton team, which they tied. I might also add here that the Washington team has never been beaten in nine years and to tie them is a creditable performance. They have a strong running attack, but a weak defense They play somewhat like Pittsburg, as they get most of their line men into the interference. Their defense how ever, will have to be improved or you will have no difficulty in scoring on them. They play their men high and do not try to rush in and break up the interference. Their reverse plays will have to be watched. as they have worked them in every game this sea- son.
 "As for forward passes, they seldom use them, but you can never tel whether they have been concealing this play or not. Their quarterback Shy" Huntington. is star and will have to be watched. Although Ore gon did not defeat Washington, they are selected to play Pennsylvania as they ran up larger scores thar Washington did against the same col. leges."
 Coach Fo1well. has issued call fo1 his men to report on Monday, wheI strict training will begin. Twenty mer have already been selected to take the trip, with two yet to be chosen. There will only be three practices a week with but one or two scrimmages be- fore the team leaves on December 22
