What giveB Coach Heisman tn
most reason for his optimism n th,
fact that the squad which goes u
Mt. 0retna contains enough player
who combine both experience an.
weight 70 give him q team will
which he can work out his peculiar
system Of attack to the best advan
tAge. - T..
Mr. Heisrhan knows that the shift
play which dating guished his team
at Georgia Tech is now out Of tn
question, but this II not wofrytnI
him, because with a team eotnbininI
/ weight, speed, the ability 70 kick an,
forward pass, he has allythe element
he wants. The kicking. depaftmer
will probably be intrueted 20 Hame
or George Brundsr, the latter tn
intercoliegiate champion with IN
javelln.
In the spring practics Bfondsr wa
able to ottltick and pass any ma,
on the squad. HaTner played hut
short time last yeer and suftere'
from inexperience only. II these tw
men make Gocd. It means that Penn
sylvania can use either a. a trtpl
threat, q type OF player The Red an
Blue has not had IN the backfiel'
