Rule 3. section IA, player who has
left the game except for disqualified

disqualifications may re enter the game

This means that in the scholastic and
college games player may come back

opinion is expressed in regard to the
matter. There are many who say that
the change is a good one, especially in
the cases of schoolboys.
Another change in the rules reads ::

tilt, Heisman's boys showed up remark
ably well in stopping their opponents
both on straight scrimmage plays and
forward passes.
In spite of this hopeful spirit, the
Pennsylvania students were not flashing
very heavy bankrolls for the purpos,
of wagering on their team. The odds
were 3 to 2 on State with very little Red
and Blue jack in sight.

Another reason for the hopeful feel =

was the fact that Bezdck probably will
have to send in his third string ouar

game. According to Bezdck, there
wasn't a chance in the world for Kill

! to get in the tray. Redinger also is
on the injured list and it is not likely
that he will be able to play. However,
Williams is far from bad quarterback,
and the team has much faith in his
ability to call the right plays.
In the backficld Bezdek stated that
Haines, Way and Smell were certain
to start. but that he would likely send
in fresh offensive material before the
contest had waned as far as the third
period. Rugh. Knabb and Lightner are
available and it is likely that all three
will get a chance against the Red and
Blue. The end positions will be taken
care of by McCollom and Brown. at
least this pair will start. Huffords

men who will adorn the bench are
Schuster, Baer, Rauch, Spangler, Hills
and LOgue.
Coach IIeisman also was uncertain
regarding Il part of his line up until a
short time before the game. 1t was at
first thought that Joe Straus would be
able to start at fullback, but because
OF his injuries in last Saturdays game
he couldn't do so. Mike Whitehill and

On the ends will be Captain Bud

we'll recently, but Ertersvaag seems to
be n little more aggressive than Grave.

years double champs. Both these
teams have greatly strengthened their

into bad luck last week when two of
their star players were injured severely

the Carpet, boys an edge, but Jim"
Wolfenden, who pilots the Millers, feels
confident he will reverse the score on
the Carpet team this time, having
been beaten earlier in National
League match with the same team.
