BEHREND WINS
Walker "Directs” Booters
To Championship Victory
Over Altoona Campus, 3-1
“We just had to do it. We thought and claimed that we were the
best team entered in the tournament.” That’s how Coach Lauffer
described the success Behrend’s soccer team enjoyed in the first
annual Behrend Invitational Soccer Tournament, held last
weekend.
The Cubs opened the tournament last Friday by displaying an
awesome offensive attack en route to a 10-5 victory over Beaver
Campus. Behrend jumped to a quick 3-0 lead before Beaver star,
Fahed Al-Zayed could find the nets for Beaver .Doe and Channas
then pushed across 2 more goals for the champs for a 5-1 score. Al-
Zayed then tallied again for Beaver to make the score 5-2. Behrend
then reeled off 5 goals, by Marsh, Channas, Doe, Channas and
Halowell, to put the Cubs in front to stay. Al-Zayed connected with 3
more goals to end the scoring at 10-5. For Behrend it was 37 shots on
goal, 10 corner kicks and 11 saves for goalie Ed Moore. Beaver had
19 shots, 10 corner kicks and 11 saves. While Behrend was defeating
Beaver, Altoona earned the right to oppose Behrend in the
championship game by downing Dußois, 5-1.
On Saturday, Beaver grabbed third place in the tournament by
beating Dußois 7-1. Al-Zayed, of Beaver, had 6 goals in the game,
for a total of 11 goals in the tournament and .the Most Valuable
Offensive Player award. This set the stage for the second game of
the day, the championship between host Behrend and Altoona.
Altoona opened the scoring in the first period, on a shot by Ely in
front of the goal mouth, to put the visitors in front 1-0. Behrend then
came charging right back on a direct shot by captain Bill Walker.
The Cubs then took the lead for good, 2-1, on a.penalty shot by Jim
Channas. Behrend went into the half with 11 shots on goal to
Altoona’s 11 shots.
Bill Walker then wrapped up the game and the championship by
scoring on another direct kick, for a 3-1 victory. “Bill Walker had
two beautiful shots,” commented Coach Lauffer, “and Mike
Marsh, winner of the Most Valuable Player Award (Defensive),
played an outstanding game. Our goalie Ed Moore played his best
game of the year and fullback, Mike Joyce turned in a fine game.”
Behrend had 23 shots on goal to Altoona’s 15 and 4 corner kicks to
the losers 11. Ed Moore had 9 saves and Altoona’s goalie tallied 12
saves. “We played a conservative game to prevent Altoona from
scoring, but this also hindered our offensive game,” added Mr.
Lauffer.
Summing up the season, Mr. Lauffer said, “This was definitely
the best soccer team ever, at Behrend. We demanded much more of
the boys and they responded well to the pressure and work. They
had a great attitude and were great guys to work with.” This, along
with two fine coaches, Mr. Lauffer and Mr. Onorato, who turned 24
boys into a cohesive soccer squad, composes Behrend’s most
successful soccer season.

SOCCER TOURNAMENT
SAYGS SAYS:
How About An “Eastern Conference”?
The 1970 college football season has been, for the most part, a disappointing one. For fans
anywhere but Austin, Texas, Columbus, Ohio, or South Bend, Indiana, the season most likely has not
lived up to its promise. But, no one, absolutely no one - , has suffered like the eastern fan. The east is
not known for its football prowess, but in the past, usually a Syracuse, or Army or Navy has supplied
a team good enough for national ranking. Lately, however, Joe Paterno has thrown everything out
of whack by sending three straight Penn State teams to bowl games. On top of this, the Nittany Lions
have had the gall to go undefeated in these post-season efforts.
This year, however, the somewhat spoiled easterner has nowhere to turn. The Lions have fallen off
the pedestal and there is simply no one else to assume the top spot. The seven major eastern schools,
Penn State, Pitt, Syracuse, Boston College, Army, Navy, and West Virginia boast (?) a 13-16 won-lost
record outside their ranks. This in itself is not really bad, it’s when you look closer and see the thir
teen victories have come against this list of non-entities: Kent St., Colgate, Holy Cross, William and
Mary, Richmond, VMI, Baylor, Miami, Colorado St., Indiana, and Villanova. At the same time the
“Big Seven” has tasted defeat at the hands of Colorado, Wisconsin, Duke, Houston, Kansas, Illinois,
Washington, Air Force, Baylor, Nebraska, Tennessee, Notre Dame, Virginia and UCLA.
It is not an encouraging situation. As collegiate sports-have grown, conversely have eastern
collegiate sports declined. It is an accepted fact that eastern institutions, in refusing to lower stan
dards for athletes, or in just not choosing to place as much emphasis on athletics as other parts of the
country, have sealed the coffin on any hope of eastern dominance, or even equality in college football.
I am not faulting this attitude, on the contrary, I admire it. What I question is an eastern school,
Qnnftc and Army is a good example, then turning around and scheduling
wllUi 15 burner what must rank as one of the most difficult schedules in the nation,
including such non-eastern teams as Nebraska, Notre Dame,
Tennessee, and Oregon. Since eastern schools place the emphasis
on competition rather than accomplishments, it seems almost
suicidal to schedule these “professional” schools.
By Mike McGinley
A fine crowd of enthusiastic
Behrend fans turned out to show
their support for the soccer team,
both Friday and Saturday. The
Cubs responded well by walking
off with the tournament cham
pionship. ...The biggest expense
in pro football besides salaries
and travel is injuries. The league
spends an average of two million
dollars per year on medical
expenses... Somebody asked that
I mention the New York Giants
and their five game winning
streak. At this point they are tied
for second place with Dallas, at 5-
3, behind St. Louis, and that is
where they’ll stay this year.
Enough said!?... Basketball
followers are referring to the
Atlanta Hawks as - the ‘Mod
Squad’ of the NBA, with mop-top
Pistol Pete and their new lime
green, futuristic blue uniforms.
Sounds like something from the
‘dream world’ of Charley Finley.
They are a good ball club and
should find themselves in the
playoffs... ABC should run away
with the TV ratings, Saturday,
November 28. They’ll start the
day with Lew and Oscar and their
Milwaukee Bucks against the
Knicks. This will be followed by
the Notre Dame-USC clash. What
a doubleheader! Watch but don’t
bet department: Notre Dame will
be out to prove they’re number
one at Georgia Tech’s expense,
Air Force to come back from
their stunning upset and deflate
Jim Plunkett’s pigskin, West
Virginia over Syracuse,
Nebraska over Kansas, UCLA to
defeat Washington, the Steelers
to go over the .500 mark by
downing the Chiefs, Broncos over
the Raiders and the Packers to
outclass the Butkus Bears. Last
week 7 for 9, .77 pet. Overall .725
pet.

WHO CAUSES PREGNANCY?
It takes two to tango. Men must share the responsibility for pre
venting unwanted pregnancy. After all, it’s your future (and the
future of someone close to you) that’s at stake. We’ve made it
easy for you to do your part. Now you can get condoms—nationally
known and imported European brands—by mail from a new non
profit family planning agency. No questions asked. So get with it.

- To me, the idea of creating an “Eastern Conference” is one worth
studying. If such a conference existed, these seven schools could
then play six of their ten games within the conference against more
nearly equal competition and wouldn’t have to fear the em
barrassment of what is happening to the service academies this
year. The greatest asset of such a conference would occur in the
fact that the east would then be guaranteed of a New Year’s Day
berth in one of the three available bowl games. It is true that the
other major conferences would far outclass the Eastern Con
ference as a whole, but the conference champion would be a wor
thwhile bowl contender. Even this year, with the east as weak as it
is, the possibility of Syracuse knocking off a Mississippi, even with
a healthy Archie Manning, is not hard to accept. The Orange Bowl’s
agreeing to a Rose Bowl-type set-up of automatically inviting the
Southeast and East champs to play each New Year’s is also a
possibility. Officials would have no fear of empty seats, for there’d
always be a large backing from whichever E.C. team was com
peting. Although schedules are set up far in advance, the schools
need not wait ten years to get the conference underway, either.
This year for example, Penn St. plays all six teams in the would-be
conference, Syracuse, Pitt and Navy play all but one, and Army,
West Virginia and Boston College play all but two. Even now,
school officials could devise a legitimate way to come up with a
champion.
You say Mississippi-Boston College sounds kind of ridiculous?
Maybe this year, but without even stepping up recruiting,Eastern
Conference schools would have a better chance of drawing all the
best scholar-athletes once the possibility of an Orange Bowl bid was
present. This way there would be no compromising of ideals or
standards by these schools.
The last plus of such a conference goes to the eastern fans. In
stead of being left without a New Year’s representative, easterners
would be able to fill the gap from early December to January Ist
with talk of how the Southeastern Conference is overrated, the
players too small, etc.
And to all you wise guys who question Syracuse’s right to be
grouped with the other six schools as an “institute of higher learn
ing” and claim that all their football players can do is play foot
ball, that’s not true, why, what about that fullback that graduated
(?) from there and played football for the Browns, he’s one
tremendous actor (cough, gaf, choke)!
