State VS. Pittsburgh
Traditional Rivalry
Penn State, one of the nation's
top-ranked teams and a contender
for a post-season bowl berth,
takes a 9 - 0 record into the game.
Pitt is 3 - 6 so far this season.
"It sounds like that old cliche
about throwing the records out
the window, but it is that kind of
game," Paterno says. "We're not
thinking about anything but Pitt."
This year's team already has
earned its position as the best
offensive team in Penn State
history.
Led by record-breaking half
back Lydell Mitchell, the Lions
have rewritten the record book.
The 1971 team has the school
records for points (338), total
offense (4,092 yards) and rushing
yards (2,852). The Lions are
averaging 454.7 yards and 43.1
points per game while allowing
only 250.4 yards and 9.1 points per
contest.
Mitchell, the Lions' premier
running back,, now holds in
dividual Penn State records and
two national marks. Mitchell's 25

touchdowns surpassed the total of
24 by Art Lupino of Arizona in
1954. His 23 touchdowns by
rushing ties the NCAA mark held
by Steve Owens of Oklahoma
(1969) and Bob Gaiters of Nev,
Mexico State (1960).
Charlie Zapiec, the Lions'
defensive captain, was the leader
of the team's great defensive
effort against N.C. State.
Paterno says the Lions will
need another good defensive
effort against Pitt, a team that
has averaged over 20 points per
game.
The Panthers have a balanced
attack. Fullback - Lou Julian has
rushed for 360 yards and his
replacement Paul Felinczak had
258. Tailback John Chatman is
the third man with 243 yards.
Senior Dave Havern and junior
John Hogan have shared the
quarterbacking duties in recent
games. Havern has completed 78
of 154 passes for 920 yards and
seven touchdowns. Hogan has hit
26 of 49 attempts for 283 yards and
a TD.
Pitt holds a 35 - 32 lead in the
series between the two teams.
There have been three ties. Penn
State has dominated the rivalry
in recent years, winning the last
five meetings and nine of the last
12.

Top Teams Win
In Intramurals
by Tony Alo
Asst. Sports Editor
Intramural basketball is now in
full swing after two weeks of
rugged Tuesday and Thursday
night action. The powerhouses of
the dorm and commuter leagues
are beginning to show their
muscles even at the point.
The fabulous Behrend Cow
Palace (better known as Erie
Hall) was the scene of some great
commuter league games last
Tuesday. night which saw two of
the top teams post victories.
In the lid-lifter at 6:30, the
Turkish Chuggers staggered out
on the court and burped their way
to a 25-17 victory over the Hatchet
Men. The Chuggers "threw up"
their usual terrific defense which
involves breathing on the other
team's man and grabbing the ball
when he passes out. Tim Everett
and Chuck Wilcox led the TC's
scoring parade as they ran their
record to 2-0.
The fantastic faculty continued
their fine(?) season in the next
game as they dropped their
second in a row. If the faculty
would be permitted to wear
oxygen tanks during the game
and be given a time out every 30
seconds it would make their
games more interesting.
The 8:00 contest was the
highlight of the evening. It pit the
November 19, 1971
super hot-dogs of intramural
basketball, the Bud Brigade,
against Daffy's Dunkers. The
game was a little difficult for the
spectators to view, however,
because of the blinding light
coming from all the bright stars
in the Bud T-shirts. Some of the
fans also had trouble con
centrating on the action because
they had to sit near "Daffy"
Shroeder, the Dunker's player
coach, yelling "go team go" and
cracking his usual "funny" jokes.
The contest was also delayed for
a few minutes while one of the
referees had to be pulled out of
the basket. It seems that he got a
little too close to the action.
All kidding aside, though, it
was a great game as Daffy's
Dunkers played some hustling
scrappy basketball almost and
pulled off an upset. However, the
Brigade's superior height and
strength and some hot shooting in
the closing minutes gave them
the 37-28 victory. Mike Hook led
the winners with 10 points while
Gary Phelps; and Jeff Kline each
and 10 for the Dunkers.
It looks like the Bud Brigade is
the class of both leagues and
everyone knows the talent they
have. But there are a lot of good
ball players on the other teams
and anything can happen in
basketball. A hot shooter or a
hustling defense can quickly turn
a game around. Daffy's Dunkers
proved that Tuesday night as
they almost made losers of the
mighty Bud Brigade.
