Penn State on
Edge for Game
With Nebraska
Cornhuskers Have Advantage
In Weight pver Bezdek's
Eleven Expect Lafge
Crowd at Game.' t
State College, Pa., Nov. 5 (Spe
cial.) Penn State is right on edge
for the big Pennsylvania day game
with Nebraska tomorrow, the Blue
and White eleven running through
a snappy signal drill this after
noon with both Killinger and Wil
liams catling the signals. The west
erners also went through a light
workout at the Country club where
they are stopping and are reported
to be in the best of condition. The
advance sale of tickets tor tomor
row's game indicates that there will
be an overflow crowd if thcday
is clear".
Neither coach would disclose the
lineup that he will use in the game,
b St is probable that Penn State
witT" start with Brown and Mc
Collum,f ends;. Beck and Baer, tack
les; Griffiths and Captain Hess,
guards; Bentz. center; Williams,
quarterback; Haines nnd Lightner,
halfbacks, and SneN, fullback. Ne
braska's probable lineup will be
Swanson and Scherer, ends; Puce
lik and Weller, tackles; W. Munn
and M. Munn, guards; Captajn pay,
cfcnter; Newman, quarterback;
Wright and Hartley, halfbacks, and
Hubka," fullback.
A comparison of the relative
veights of the two learns shows
that the Cornhuskeyi will have a
little fcdge on BezdeK's boys and if
the field is muddy this may make
some difference in the result. The
respective lines are just about even,
Nebraska averaging 185 pounds and
Penn State 184. However, in the
backficld, 'the .Nittany Lion.s will
be outweighed about eight pounds
to the man, the visitors averaging
172 against State's 164. If Charlie
Way go.es in,for Penn State, the
Blue and White average vfill drop
to 156, for the diminutive marvel
tips the beam at exactly 140" pounds.
Coach Bezdek is counting on his
powerful line to stop the , smashes
of the Nebraska backs and he ex
pects his sprinting backfield to do
the rest.

plays, ,the visitors were unable to
gain, so Campbell dropped back and
dropped a perfect dropkick over
the goal from the 25-yard line. Lin

for a touchdown. Pugh made the
score., garrison missqd fcoal.
During the second period the ball

Comiskey Denies
Johnson Exposed
Scandal In Ball
President tot White Sox, In
Statement to Yankee Own
ers, Declares League Chief
Not Entitled to Credit.
New Yorl Nov. 5. Jacob Rup
pcrt and T. L. Huston, owners of
the New York Americans, last night
made public a statement from
Charles A. Comiskey, owner of the
Chicago Americans, dealing with
the 1919 world series scandal..
The statement, a reply to a re
tjues from the New York owners,
seeks to counteract the impression
that prevails that -Mr. Comiskey had
been delinquent in exposing the
scandal and that credit for doing to
should 'no vto President Johnson of
the American League.
Mr. Comiskey declared that the
first intimation he received of crook
edness was - regarding H. C. Red
mond of St. Louis, who claimed to
have lost $5;0()O on -the White Sox
by being double-crossed. Redmond
was interviewed, he sajd, but the
story he told was vague and uncer
tain. Redmond, he declared, could
give no names, circumstances or
facts on which to base charges of
crookedness.
Mi;. Comiskey stated he had spent
approximately $10,000 in attempting
to run down the charges and thgt
!he "work of detectives hired by
hihi did not terminate until May
1920 .He then communicated his
SMspicions to President Heydlcr of
the National league who in .turn in
formed President Johnson of the
American league.
"This same man Redmond was
likewise interviewed at, or about,
the same time- that I interviewed
hifh, by this same Johnson, the
president of the American league,"
the statement continued, "and John
son must havt reached the same
conclusion because he took no ac
tion. v
"Immediately upon the special
gtand jury rjeing convened in Cook
county I -volunteered all informa
tion at my disposal and , paid part
of the expense aLbringing witnesses

justice of the criminal court offered
to delay investigation until the end
