That speed will have to be AN even
greater factor in tn" playing of
the Penn State eleven this fall than
Il year ago is shown by tn" squad
statistics which Indicate that Coach
BcZdck's eleven is considerably
lighter than in 1921. when 1t went
through the toughest sort OF
schedule without defeat. The line
this fall averages 1H6 pounds from
end to end, while the backficld will

The difference in weight in the
line is accounted for very easily.
Bill Hamilton is playing left guard
in place Of Ray Racr, and weighs
10 pounds compared to the latter's
200. Hap Frank, on. left end, is
about ten pounds lighter than Stan
