of the Nittany Lion in the rugged
■fastness of central Pennsylvania.
The opening game with v Howard
Jones’ Blue Devils, played under weath
er conditions ideal for but wholly
unsuitable for football pluyeiti, brought
to light many of the weaknesses of the
Tech squad and at the same time dis
closed much of its potential strength.
To bolster up the weak spots will be the
chief aim of the coaches during the
week.
To this end it is expected tliat steps
will be taken to speed up the attack,
which at times oit Saturday, especially
during the first half, showed signs of
lagging. Neither Sprague, nor Jonnette,
who alternated at quarterback, sent the
team into. action with the spued es
sentia! to a well-sustained offense. It
whs the first game of thb sensbn. it is
triie, and naturally, the team-work was
not up to the standard which should be
exhibited later iii the fall. This d6es not
alter the fact, however, that time and
time ugain, with a drive started, the
team was forced to relax while, the
quarterbacks puzzled out the next play.
Trinity brought a baffling shift to
Kiddick Field and during tile early
stngcs of Hie game the Maroon forwards
experienced a. little difficulty in break
ing lip the manouvre, wliiyh was well
‘Conceived and smartly executed. Dur-J
lug the second half the line diagnosed!
the, attack ranch better and succeeded!
in stopping the'Methodist advance.
No alibis are offered for the poor
showing of the team during the first two
periods. During this part of the game
the fast Trinity aggregation clearly out
played the Pack, and although the Blue;
Devils never seriously threatened, they
gained a lot of ground and kept State'
largely on the defensive.
