' 11.6-It-pd-OD Pitt Just A Warmup For Pros Flashy Lion Gridders, Paced By Wear, Pleased Followers By HERB CAFTAN The-biggest disappointment to Penn State football followers this past season was the fact that Harty Harrison, Windy Wear, Johnny Patrick, or Steve Rollins didn't dash off for any touchdown runs from kickoffs as was accomplished twice, and almost three times, last year. The answer: all our opponents we're prepared for the only threat of the weak, "We'ie seniors" outfit of 1936. But, with very few exceptions, Nittany Lion fans were much pleased with the showing of Bob Higgins' peppy 1937 sound. They gave exhibitions of some of - the flashiest, most thrill-' ing football witnessed this year. And, of course,. it goes without saying that the man most responsible for this showing wars the 135-pound jack-rab• bit pepper-pot, Wendell W. Wear. Lifted Lions From DoldruMs Not to slight the sterling perfor mances given- by the entire State squad, Windy did more toward pull ing the Blue and White out of the gridiron doldrums than any other one player, a fact acknowledged by his teammates and 'coaches. His brainy field-generalship, - especially in, "tight spots," was almost perfection .itself;, his dashing, ball-carrying abilities rate -him among the best; and his pass slinging ability stands unques tioned. Not to be 'lost in the continued, worthy praises being showered on Windy, are_ the brilliant. performan ces registered by his partner-in-trou , ble -making - for -opponents, Harry Harrison who has been named on six all-opponent ,teams, and with the Rabbit was given all-American men tion by the Associated Press.

The season will go down in the rec ord books as one of five wins and three defeats. But what posterity will not know is how close two of those losses were to victories or ties; and hoW near one of those wins was to a loss or a tic. The Cornell and Syracuse games .were lost in the dy ing minutes of play by 2649 and 19- 13 'scores, respectively; and Windy Wear and Harry Harrison combined to push over the winning touchdown of the Maryland game in the last two Chuck Carries On Iron Man Role With Rams We knew he wait good, but nobody else seemed to think no. Last year when All-American teams Were Hooding the press columns, the name of Penn State's Chuck Chemin. dolo was usually found burled in the honorable mention list. This despite the fact that he was acclaimed almost unanimously by °posing coaches as one of the greatest centers they had ever seen. Last spring Chuck's name domin ated' the poll conducted by 'a Phila delphia paper picking a team of east ern college stars to face-she Phila delphia Eagles in a pre-season all star game. Viewed this time by scouts who were interested in individual ability and not 'in team records, Chuck's usual fierce tackling, liard charging, and dependable playing with his adeptness at diagnosing the moves Of the offense, gained him professional football contract with the Cleveland Rams. Averages 55 Minutes a Game • Since then he has played an average of 55 minutes a game in the toughest racket of them all—pro football. The center Penn State fans will never for- get stopped over In State College this week end on his way to his home in Old Forge. and had many inter esting things to say about his im pressions of the• pro game. "Any college player who is concen trating on football coaching as' a ca reer should play at least one season on a pro team," was his first com ment. "I believe I learned more about the game with the Rams than in all my college playing experience." Pitt Not So Tough Chuck roomed with Julian Alphonse. halfback and co-captain of last sea son's great Minnesota team. Their typical day called for an -early break fast with field practice front 9:30 to 10:30 o'clock. A an hour was then devoted to skull practice in which scouting notes were gone over thoroughly. At 11 o'clock the day was over as far as football was concerned. Chuck verified the generally-accept ed fact that the pro game is much tougher than collegiate football, but he enjoyed it afinost as much. Re garding a scribe's opinion that Pitt's powerful. Panther parade was better than most professional team's, Chuck, who played against Pitt's present jun ior team when they were sophomores lost year, said "Pitt's almost as tough, but any National league club could really knock the tar out - of 'em." minutes to give State a 21-14 victory. Then, of course, there were the de feats-of Gettysburg, Lehigh, Buck ' sell, and Penn. No matter what the calibre of the latter•, the whitewash ing of the traditional foe, the Qua kers, by a 7 to 0 count, was' more than welcome, coining after an eight-year wait. The loss to Pitt will remain on the books as an indication of the true superiority of that all-American stud ded aggregaion. • "It was his FORD V• 8 that got her!"
