Syracuse University alumni are
anxious for the resumption OF ath-

prepared to support the game,

gotiations with Penn State are un-

Hobart probably will be retained
on the next Orange chart. receiving
the seasons first date. New York

choice Tor the second game. Under
its two-year playing agreement with
Brown, Orange will take on the
Bears al Providence next fall. and
this battle will be the third or fourth
on the 1922 schedule.
Pittsburgh will come TO Syracuse
to play next season. and will be, az
usual. one of the big spots on the
Grange card. Whether Washington

foe rests solely with the presidents.
The Orange wants the games re-
ta!red permanently az another fea

not fancy playing under Montreal
