The chess team, led by captain Larry Petroff who had a perfect 4-0 record in the tournament, placed second. McKeesport de throned the traditionally power ful Behrend team by one point. Dave Ambro and Al Skelly, the other members of the team, both had solid 3-1 marks. Altoona was the campus with the most able tennis team. The Behrend crew finished third. Frank Polimene was captain of the Behrend five, with Bob Ar pin, Torn Loesch, Bill Bartlett, and John Lee lending support. The Behrend bowlers also fin- Bowlers Compete Mr. Hostetler Strikes out Last wee?, the faculty of Beh rend Campus audaciously chal lcnged the student tournament bowling team to a bowling match. The match was held during com mon hour so that everyone could be present. Although hopelessly outclassed by the students, the faculty pre sented the students with anomi nous threat. The teachers curtly threatened the students with a deluge of work if the students should win the match. This effec tive weapon somewhat stymied the productivity of the students. Handicapped by the loss of Ernest E. Pryer, who could not attend, the teachers recruited one of the student bowlers to com pensate for their loss. Surpris ingly the teachers battled the students down to the wire by a combination of low scores tallied by the students and some good bowling on the part of the teach- Participating in the match were Mr. John S. Bedford, Mr. Robert EHE NITTANY CUB ished second, and once again Mc- Keesport was the victor. Al Fer guson was the most effective pin scatter for the Cubs. Other mem bers of the team were Rick Mas- chgan, Steve Fine. Dan Chase, Paul Pecorella, Keith Pierce, and Dave Held. All in all, it can be said that the Behrend teams made a very good showing, and, with little more ef fort, possibly one of the Behrend Inter-Campus will be able to pick up a "gold medal" in the Winter or Spring Inter-Campus Tourna ments. Soccermen End Season Al Buffalo Slate U. Behrend's 1964 Soccer season ended October 29, with a 3-3 tie at Buffalo State. Many of the players will tell you this season has been a period of woe. Not only has Behrend lost three games, bu t freakish weather fought against them all the way. The opening game at Grove City was hard to believe. The mid-Oc tober contest was played in numbing cold and occasional snow squalls. This brand of weather caused the loyal fan to wonder what the remainder of the season had in store. A little more than a week later, Behrend was host to Erie County Tech. The teams were warmed up in a driving rain by game time, but there was something drastic ally wrong. The officials had not yet arrived. A decision was made to reterat to Erie Hall. This was a cue for the rain to slacken. Close to a half-hour later, a delinquent official galloped in. As the contest started, the rain let go with full fury. One Erie Tech player was heard moaning of the last time he played at Behrend, P. Hostetter, Mr. Lester D. Jacobs, Mr. Eva Tucker, Al Ferguson, Steve Fine, Rich Maschgan, Paul Pecorella, Dave Held and Dan Chase. Oh yes, the illustrious faculty was forced to succumb to the abi lity of the students. Maybe that's the reason for all the grim faces and large homework assignments eminent on campus this week. there was snow "ankle deep." The latter part of the encount Coach Sweeting gives last minute instructions Behrend ended its soccer sea son, October 29. at Buffalo State with an exciting double overtime 3-3 tie. Buffalo grabbed a 1-0 lead on Cyril Cain's first period goal, but Behrend stormed back in the sec ond quarter on the foot of sopho more Bill Harding. Bill scored two goals, one a penalty kick, to shove Behrend on top of a 2-1 halftime count. In the third period. Buffalo forged in front with two goals and a 3-2 edge. Tom Bundy. who was injured the first part of the season, had to leave the game when he re-injured his ailing ankle. Ray May tied the match at 3-3 in the final quarter to throw the game in overtime. Both teams failed to score for two overtime periods and the game ended with out a change in the final tally. Behrend closed with a 1-3-1 record. The one win was over the highly regarded Erie Coach Soc cer Club which was honored re cently for clinching the District Soccer League Title. The Erie Soccer team of 1963-64 had a 12- 1-1 record. Although next year's soccer er was accompanied by high winds which almost blew the goals away. The game finally ended to the delight of Erie Tech which was on the winning side. A question still remains! Will Erie County Tech ever come back -to Behrend again? Wednesday, November 4, 1964 team will be without veterans Tom Bundy, Bill Harding, Jack Bowman, Tom Loesch, Russ Storll and Emil Pialet, there will be many promising players return ing. Weather Hampers Cubs In 4-1 loss by John Beavers The Behrend soccer team suf fered a 4-1 setback to a tough Erie County Tech team Wednes day, on the soggy Behrend field. Behrend, fresh from an exhibi tion victory over the Erie Soccer Club, seemed determined to make it two in a row at the expense of Erie County Tech. Despite the driving rain and strong winds, Erie Tech fought to an early lead and at the end of the first half held a 2-0 edge. Ignoring the hard running of fullback Emil Pialet and inside man Bill Harding, Erie Tech scored back-to-back goals for a 4-0 third period lead. The fourth quarter action saw a point scored by sophomore Tom Bundy, who had been sidelined with an injury in earlier games. This score, however, was the final tally on the fourth quarter and the game ended with Erie Tech on. the winning side, 4-1. Congratulations to Coach Roger Sweeting and the team for a fine effort. Behrend brings the campaign to a close, October 29, at Buffalo State.-
