Nittany Lions , Army Hope
To Turn Seasons Around
Penn State’s Nittany Lions travel to West Point this Saturday to
meet the Cadets of Army in what each hopes will be a turning point
in a disappointing season for both football teams. The Lions will
once again be seeking to even their record at .500 (they were suc
cessful versus Boston College), while the Cadets,- who sport a
dismal 1-5 record, cling to the faint hope of a winning season.
Coach Joe Paterno, faced with what could be his worst season
since taking over the reins at Penn State says, “We have to find a
winning combination—one that will play well under pressure. We
are going to move some people around and make some changes.”
The Lions have been unable to come up with a big offensive day
since Navy. . , , , . T ,
One pleasant surprise has been the job done by senior Joel
Ramich while subbing for injured Lydell Mitchell. Ramich rushed
for 94 yards in 23 carries last week against Syracuse in leading the
team in that department for the second straight week.
The Cadet offense has been able to muster,only 40 points in its last
five games. Opponents, however, have included 3 of the top 10
teams in the'country. (Tennessee, Nebraska, and Notre Dame).
The Army air attack has been bolstered by the return of flanker Joe
Albano. Albano has played in only two games, but still ranks as the
Black and Gold’s second leading receiver.
If past history is any indication, this will be a tight, low-scoring
affair. In five of the last six meetings between the two teams, 11
points was enough to win the game.
The Lions have had little success in West Point’s Michie Stadium.
In their last three visits they have totalled only 12 points.
Army leads the series which began in 1899,10-5 with 2 ties.
The game will be regionally telecast by ABC-TV. Kick-off is 1:50
p.m., Eastern Daylight Time.
Behrend Roundbollers
Prepare For
“The guys who are here want to
play ball and that’s all I care
about,” was Head Coach Marty
Malkin’s reaction to this year’s
turn-out for basketball here at
Behrend.
The “guys” are led by return
ing lettermen Gary Boroway,
DanPorath, Ron Kwasneski, Don
“Worm” Williams, and Bill May.
Promising newcomers include a
Behrend first in the person of
Glenn McKinney, who was First
Team All-Erie County from
Union City last year, Bob Hoff
man, a three year letterman
from Academy, and Doug
Nelson, a 6 foot 5 inch transfer
from University Park.
Coach Malkin is “... very op
timistic’ but so are all coaches at
this point. This year we’ll have
four or five guards I can go to
which will make us much quicker
than last year.”
Last year’s roundballers
wound up with an overall record
of 1.6 - 6 and were the Penn State
University Commonwealth
Campus Champions.

commented Malkin. Steps taken
in this direction include the ad

as the Boyce Campus of
Allegheny College, Allegheny
South, and Lorain Community
College.
Behrend’s first taste of com
petition comes in a scrimmage
this Tuesday versus Academy.
Coach Malkin feels the
November 7th scrimmage with
the Gannon freshmen will give
first indications of what’s to come
this season.
Can Behrend surpass last
season’s achievements? Ac
cording to Coach Malkin, “It’s
going to take a lot of hard work.”
The basketball and wrestling
squads at Behrend have begun
practice in preparation for the
onset of new seasons. Basketball
practice began October 15 and
runs Monday thru Saturday. The
wrestling team is working out
every Monday, Wednesday and
Friday ... Ara Paraseghian, of
Notre Dame, has proposed an
interesting adventure. Suppose
going into the eighth game Ohio
State and Notre Dame are
number one and two in the
rankings, or any other two teams
who have scheduled only ten
games. Number two could then
challenge number one or vice
versa on the first Saturday after

only be considered the per

teams would remain eligible for

Intramural Football
Through 3rd Round
Director of Intramural Flag
Football, Mr. Stoner, has slightly
altered the proceedings this year.
Instead of the six entrants
operating on a strict won-loss
basis, the teams are operating on
the “ladder system.” In this
case, there are three brackets,
the teams were drawn from a hat
to see what order they would
begin in, and after each game the
winner moves up a bracket and
the loser down a bracket. The two
teams in the top bracket of the
last complete round as of October
27 will play for the league
championship on October 28th,
weather permitting.
Brackets at the completion of
the third round are: FIRST:
Faculty AC and No Name;
SECOND: The Mardi Gras and
the Scholars; THIRD: The
Savage Seven and Warriors.

Cubs Win; Tougher Ahead
Two of the top soccer teams in
the country will provide stiff
competition for Behrend’s soccer
squad in two weeks time.
Tuesday Behrend traveled to
Lorain Community College, the
number four team in the country
and Saturday, October 31, the
team will face Allegheny Com
munity College, of Pittsburgh,
the number eight- team, at
Behrend. Saturdays ‘ game
against the Fredonia JV has been
rescheduled for tomorrow,
Friday, at 3:00 p.m.
Last Saturday the team evened
its record at 2-2 by downing

scoring in the third quarter with a
goal on a assist by Pen Hallowell.
Dubois came right back to tie it
up at 1-1 on a goal by Walters.
With 56 seconds remaining in the
third quarter Jim Channas put
Behrend ahead to stay with a goal
on a penalty kick. In the fourth
quarter, Bill Walker scored from
25 yards out to end the scoring at
3-1.
Behrend had 40 shots on the
Dubois goal, while Dubois had 8

offense looked very fluid until we
had to put the ball in the net.”
Coach Lauffer added that the
passing between Channas and
Doe was ’’just tremendous.”
Saygs Says

CUB Sports Editor
Gallo Spanada sure makes
those tough Tuesday nights in the
CUB office easier.
Super fragile Joe Namath is
about to miss his first regular
season game because of injury
since he joined the Jets in 1965.
For those who don’t know,'
Namath chipped his wrist in the
Colt game and will sit out Sun
day’s game with Buffalo.
Was it really necessary to build
the baseball field where they did?
The entrance to Behrend had a
lot more atmosphere before the
change.
You can bet Walter Alston had
nothing to do with the Richie
Allen trade. Allen is valuable as
a player, but has never played for
a winner. Walter" is a firm
believer in the “winner theory”
and probably argued long and
hard about obtaining Allen.

1-4 team in football.

CHANCE TO
GET HIGH
Interested in owning your own
airplane someday? A good start
would be joining the Flying Club
of Behrend Campus. This club
has been set up in order to help
interested students learn to fly.
Tentative arrangements have
been made with Erie Airways to
obtain a reduced rate, for dual
and solo flying lessons.
If you have never flown before
and you would like to try it, here
is an excellent opportunity. All
you have to do is go to Erie
Airways at the airport and ask
them for the $5.00 introductory
lesson. During this lesson you will
actually fly a Cessna 150 by
yourself. In addition, you will
receive an official logbook with
your recorded time. According to
a Flying Club Advisor, Mr.
Zimmerman, there is also an
excellent possibility that a
Campus Ground School can be
established.
If you are interested in this
fabulous opportunity, contact Mr.
Zimmerman or come to the next
meeting in the RUB Seminar
Room at 4:30 (Common Hour), on
October 29.
