Foofball Squad Although the Penn gridders failed to hit their winning stride this season, their scores show an improvement over preceding seasons. Under the supervision of Coach Willard Whalin, making his debut at Penn this season, the Quakers Won one game, tied one, and lost five. Captain Howard Williams, quarterback, Tom Constantine, reserve end, and Weston Melson, reserve guard, are all that will be lost to the team for the forthcoming season. The loss of Captain Williams will be strongly felt, he will leave a vacancy that will be hard to iill. The ,37 season saw Bainbridge, Watson, Dollar, De Vault, Dye, and Mc- Cormick, all Freshmen, in action. This experience should have prepared them for any and all conference competition next year. The Sophomores put Ander- son, Ruby, Neal, Clark, and Ver Steeg on the Held, While the Juniors contributed Ragan, Weatherwax, Braafhart, Deadman, Scheuermann, and D. Williams.

Baslqeiball Team The Penn cagers went to the mat in some real thrillers this season, although they did not compile a very impressive record. The season saw the Fighting Quakers lose to Columbia, second placers in the conference, by one point in the last minute, win from Wartburg and Parsons by one point, lose to Central by three points, and win by two points over Parsons in their second meeting, making three conference wins and one non-conference win. The Quakers entertained Jesse Owens, famous Olympic runner, and his all- star negro Olympians.
