Penn State football team will swing
into action next Saturday when
the season will officially open with

and the showing of the team next
Saturday will demonstrate just how

during the past week and when
practice ended today, Bezdek felt
we'll pleased with the showing of
the men. The return of Brown and
McCollum to ends on the first team
caused a general Improvement in
the teamwork displayed. The left
side of the line is practically set
tied, with Rauch at guard. Beck al
tackle. and Brown at end, but Bez-
dek is still experimenting on the
other side. Captain Hess, Baer and
Schuster have been taking turns
at right guard and right tackle
with McCollum fairly sure of his
place on end. Griffiths is playing
a steady game at center. The back.
field combination of Williams
Haines, Smell and Redinger has
played together all week, with Way

two games he lost last year. The
+ Orange outfit will be stronger than
ever from all reports. and the
