Buc Fans Elated
The TV Room was a scene of jubilation as the final out is
made in the seventh game of the series to give the Pirates
the World Championship. The Bucs came back after being
down two games to none to the Orioles.

Ruef
by Dave Ruef

Last Thursday I sat in the TV
room watching Nelson Briles
throw pills at the anemic bats of
the Baltimore Orioles. At 3:00
p.m. the Behrend Collegian
arrived and the hall was filled
with laughter over
,was
World
Series outlook. The Pirate fans
were hysterical over my
prediction that the Orioles would
win the Series. Thank God my
name was not under the article or
I would have probably been
lynched.
The hall was filled with shouts,
"Hey Joe, did ya read this dumb
article, this ass actually picked
the Orioles! I can't wait to read
his apology." I had to take this
all in, while I became as red as a
beet.
But I was wrong, so I will
apologize to all the Buc fans.
The Pirates Are The Greatest
Team In Baseball ! ! !
Are you satisfied? I hope so.
Actually the Pirates deserved
the World Series. They came

Hockey On Grass
by Pam Babcock
Sports Reporter
I write this as a warning to all
coeds: Watch out for the games
men play. I don't - mean the indoor
games-you already know about
those. I'm speaking of the outdoor
games-especially that insane
game where men submit
themselves to excruciating pain
of the big toe, all for the glory of a
point (or is it two points?).
Anyway the game is called
soccer. Why I have no idea;
except that it's the best name the
guys could come up with. I had to
-see the game to believe it.
Incredible.

back in courageous fashion after
being down two games to none.
Game 4 hero was 21-year-old
Bruce Kison. He fired a one
hitter for over six innings and
picked up the win, on the game
winning hit, by reserve catcher
Milt May. Nelson Briles pitched
a masterful two-hitter to give the
Pirates game 5 with a 4 - 0
shutout. Game 6 went to the
Birds. Frank Robinson's fine
base running, in the tenth,
provided the difference as
Baltimore won 4- 3. Game 7 was
all Blass as he tossed a four
hitter. The "great one", Roberto
Clemente, socked a home-run,
and Jose Pagan drove in Willie
Stargell to provide the edge as
the Pirates whipped Baltimore 2 -
1. It was fitting that Clemente
was the MVP of the Series. He's
the greatest and he's finally
getting the recognition he
deserves.
So there ya have it, a quick
wrap up as the Pirates are now
the World. Champions. I hated to
admit it, but they're the greatest.
out of two goals. One goal is ours,
the other is theirs. The object is to
get the ball into our goal and keep
it out of theirs. It's a lot like
hockey, except it's not played on
the ice, there are no sticks, and
instead of a puck we have our
little ball. Hockey on grass. Has a
nice sound, doesn't it?
The whole point of this little
dissertation is to urge all you
girls to get up and go down to the
soccer field not only to watch the
guys-but to help them out.
Someone needs to tell them the
whole game would be much
easier if they weren't so
emotional. If they'd quit waving
their arms around in frustration
and use them instead to pick up
that ball and run. . .oh, what a
woman's mind can do for sports.

Cub Booters Set Mark;
Even Season 's
Slate
by Tony Alo
Ass't Sports Editor
For the first time in history
Behrend Campus has recorded
two soccer shutouts in one
season.
They performed this feat
against McKeesport Campus last
Saturday on Behrend's home
field, as they buried their fellow
Penn-Staters 8-0. The other
shutout came on October 9 by a 3-
0 score against Altoona Campus.
Jim Channas, the Cubs' leading
scorer, and Mike Marsh slam
med three goals apiece and John
Hoge had two to lead the scoring
parade. Channas, Marsh, Hoge,
and Bill Hildenbrand each
chipped in with an assist to aid in
the rout as the Cubs took forty
three cracks at the goal.
The stingy Behrend defense
held McKeesport to a mere seven
shots. Ed Moore blocked four of
those shots, so the opponents had
no chance at all. Things were
much more hectic at the other
end of the field, however, as the
McKeesport goalie Kelmukis had
twenty-seven saves to hold the
score within reason.
Behrend has not been scored
upon by a Commonwealth
Campus foe so far this season in
compiling a 3-3 record.
Last Wednesday, everything
was not so rosy for the BC booters
as they got the "boot" from
Cuyahoga Western 7-2.
Cuyahoga took a 3-1 halftime
lead and added four more in the
finale to sent the Cubs skidding to
their third loss in five matches.
Channas and Marsh were the
lone two Cubs to dent the

McKeesport boosting his season

Coach Lauffer said of Jim:
"He has done a truly outstanding
job, considering he is now ham
pered with a broken wrist. Jim
didn't score in his first game
following the injury but has now
come back'and performed well."
Channas, recipient of last
season's athlete of the year
award at Behrend, also received
an honorable mention on the all-
Region XIX team. When asked
about Jim's chances of earning a
berth on the all-region first team,
Lauffer stated: "Jim would have
an excellent shot at all-region if
Behrend received more exposure
to the other squads in the region.
We only play one school from
Region XIX and this definitely
will hamper Jim's chances."
Jim performs at the inside left
position and is also the captain of
the 1971 edition - of the Cubs. The
entire squad is in "high gear"
according to Coach Lauffer and
team spirit is at a zenith for
Wednesday's tough game against
rugged Lorain Community
College. With "athlete of the
week" Jim Channas leading the
determined Cubs, don't bet
against the Behrend hooters.

This Saturday Behrend takes
on its third Commonwealth
Campus foe of the season when
they face Dubois Campus in a 2
o'clock home contest. Last year
Behrend defeated Dubois 3-1.
The Cubs hit the road next
Tuesday for a 3 o'clock match
against Allegheny Community
College.
The wrestling team, led by
coach Ed Onorato, took the
Commonwealth Campus Tour
nament.
Coach Martin Makin's golf
team posted a perfect 9 - 0 record
and went on to win the Com
monwealth Campus Tournament.
They were also runner-up in
regional play, and sent one player
to the National Tourney.
Ten years ago, no one would
have dreamed about Behrend
becoming a four-year institution,
either academically or
athletically. The past has been
glorious; the future should be
even greater.

The Trojan Rubber Company
got one step closer to the
championship game after beating
the Mystics from third floor
Lawrence 26-12.
The T.R.C. was led by halfback
Keith "Flash" Christing who
scored one touchdown and made
several long yardage runs.
The Bud Brigade also continued
their undefeated string by beating
Ist floor Lawrence 36-6. Dave
Ruef led the brigade by throwing
six touchdown passes.
Another team who is showing
good potential this year is the
undefeated faculty team led by
Clarence Stoner.
Next week will be the last week
of scheduled competition and
ending up the season will be the
championship game between the
winner of the dorm league vs. the
winner of the commuting league.
