NOVEL SCOUTING PLAN
IS PROPOSED FOR PENN

A student scouting system-in fact, a
school Of scouts-which is decidedly
something new in collegiate foot ball.
mas been urged at the University of
Pennsylvania and will be considered by
the Red and Blue gridiron committee at
an early meeting.
Briefly, the new plan provides for
eleven or twelve undergraduates who
know little or nothing about the techni-
cal theory of foot ball to form the scout
ing school next fall.
They will be either freshmen or soph-
omores. and for the entire season will
scout Pennsylvania in each practice and
in every game.
After they have completely demon
strated their fitness by accurately re-
porting the moves of each man in a
Red and Blue game they will be sent
outs the following season to learn the
Pennsylvania rivals formations during
games.
Even after they graduate, these men
would be invaluable to us If they lived
in Philadelphia" says Lieut.. CASTOR,
''for they could be called upon each sea-
son to scout our opponents and would no
doubt be glad to do it,
