State Rolls by Pitt
Penn State's Nittany Lions
on a successful note by beating
Lions' season record was thus
brought to six wins and four
losses.
Pam State was favored by one
touchdown over Pitt. a team that
had given top-ranked Notre Dame
its toughest game of the season
before bowing 17-15 to the Fight
ing Irish. Both Pitt and Penn
State were fired up for this ann

rivals. The day was a cold one:
ardent fans braved 18-degree
temperatures and 40-mile an hour
winds to root for their team.
Pitt started the game by kick

across three more tallies and the
final score read Penn State 28,
Pitt 0. Astounded fans began to
speculate about how Penn State
would have done had they played

LIONS END WITH
6 AND 4 SEASON
The Nittany Lions football team,
which started the season poorly
but finished it with a rush, voted
to reject any bid to a post•-season
bowl game, if one should be offer
ed.
Penn State had been named
earlier by a Gator Bowl Commit

under consideration as Florida
State's opponent in the Gator
I 'Bowl.
The Lions finished the season
with a 6-4 record, their 26th
straight winning sea - son, after los
ing their first three games. They
won their last five, including a
27-0 upset over previously unbeat
en Ohio State and a 28-0 blasting

Because of this great showing
at the end of the season, State
was declared winner of the Lam
bert Trophy. This trophy, sym
bolic of Eastern football suprema
cy, has been awarded three times
previously to Penn State—in 1947,.
