Although the Harvard team has played six games of which it has only lost two, during the winter trip. Coach Wachter said yesterday that in the face of so strong an opponent as Penn State, the Crimson attack would be remodeled. To reinforce the scoring punch which proved lacking in the recent game with the Coast Guard Cadets, he has made change sin the starting lineup which will be in force tomorrow night. Vahan Moushegian '32. University football veteran, has been substituted for R. W. Sponaugle '31, who has failed thus far to show much scoring ability...

Harvard will present the same starting lineup that has carried it to victory in every game so far this season.

He won four rounds and began to tire. Genaro hit him twice in the left eye with a punch supposed to be fatal to the man who tries it-a right lead. Midget's eye closed. Comatose spectators booed, clapped for action. Once Genaro, swinging a right, missed and fell down. It was the only down of the fight. When it was over one judge voted for Wolgast...

...should have been a credit to the ministry, but he was headstrong and impulsive, and time and again mistook fanatical hunches for divine inspiration. To mortify his pride (and incidentally punish Charlotte) he married Anna, who was beautiful, but only a peasant peddler-girl. Anna was pleased as punch, and quite ready to love her handsome husband, but he wanted them to live like brother & sister. She got over that fence all right, but when she discovered Karl Arthur's platonic friendship with the organist's wife, shy Thea, Anna's native wit was not much help...
