les, are on the injured list, though
It 81 probable that both can play
q part, ct least, Of the Pennsylvania
State game here Saturday.
The situation as 70 the restricted
players Is this: They were debar,

lions from taking part IN any
competitive match because they did
not maintain q standing Of IS oui
Of q possible Z In one or more
branches. They may remove the
restriction BY bringing their stand

Approximately q month.
Therefore, the best that tie
restricted players can hops Tor b
that they win be restored % full
standing about week before the
game. They may not be able TO
do this, and u b very doubtful
IN one case, where the deficiency
n I'm several studies, but the mar

and the chances Of overcoming e
good.
However, the coaches must buIlt
q team for the other games and
one that VIII b sure 20 BE- available
for the Army game. II WIN not b

restricted players, a. efforts mus
be concentrated on those who car
be used In the matches. These
players, hoWsver. are permitted K
get in some practice Of the after
moons, and most Of them should
sbe a reserve ct least for the Army
game.
The coaches have already dcne
