Hash and Weekend Left-
overs
When it comes to fight, you've
got to hand it to those guys from
Bucknell every time . . . No mat
ter if they had only eleven men on
their entire squad, the Bisons
would make Penn State believe
their reserve strength was as end
less as a political argument . . .
Needless to say, the Lions didn't
look like world-beaters Saturday
afternoon, but a glance at history
will show that the Nittany gridders
haven't beaten a Bucknell eleven
by more than two touchdowns
since 1929.
Somehow, when the Thundering
Herd is called upon to meet the
Lion pack, they find more strength
and stubbornness than two twen
ty-mule teams . . . It's just their
habit . . So all thinks taken into
consideration, next Saturday's bat
tle with the Mountaineers will be
more of an indication of the Hig
ginsmen's ability.
If you're looking for the hero
of the Battle of Bucknell, pin the
orchids on Pepper "Double-duty"
Petrella and Len Krouse in the
ball-toting department, and save
a few for lineman Gajecki and
Vargo . . . If you want the most
spectacular play of the game refer
to Petrella's two-yard gain after
he had run nearly fifty yards back
of his
.own line of scrimmage, evad
ing Bison tacklers.
6:30, 8:30
Around Penn 'State's own cir
cuit, all of the Lions' opponents
have now swallowed defeat at
least once although the grid season
has hardly gotten under way.
South Carolina, West Virginia,
Temple, Syracuse, and NYU all
went down over the weekend with
Lehigh dropping its second game
in two weeks . . . Hitting a snag
on weekend games and picking
right only six out of nine games
with three wrong and one tie, •this
writer stands with 22 correctly
chosen, six wrong, and two ties for
an average of .733.

CINCINNATI, Oct. 7 Bucky
Walters again placed the Cincin
nati Reds back into the running
with a 4-0 shutout over Detroit to
day. The pennant score now stands
deadlocked at 3-3 with the final
and deciding game tomorrow.
Walters allowed five hits and
smashed a home run over the left
field fence in the eighth stanza.
Schoolboy Rowe was the losing
pitcher.

Harrier Tiße-Trials Held
Today For Spartan Meet
Seven varsity cross-country run
ners for the Michigan State dual
meet will be selected today when
Coach Chick Werner's harrier
squad races in a competitive time
trial at 4 p.m.
Captain Bill Smith is expected
to lead the runners down the home
stretch with approximately 15 var
sity candidates nipping at his
heels.
Some of -the promising hill and
dalers who will try to make the
seven-man varsity 'squad are Chet
Snyder, Pop Thiel, Alex Bourgerie,
Don Hess, Boyd Witherow, Bob
Kintigh, Bill Jimeson, Bob Wheel
er, Archy Hyson, Stu Rhodes and
Max Peters.
"Ole Man Injury" may handicap
the probable starting lineup against
the Spartans on Saturday when
Werner announced that three of
his best •harriers will be unable'
to race in today's time-trial.
Herm Goffberg, considered by
Werner as his most promising run
ner, Vern Kotz, a varsity man, and
Francis Burkhart, have leg injur
ies which will keep them out of
action for a few days.

of 110 acres was the original of

Out Next Saturday
Coach Bob Higgins is probably
tempted to put in a want ad for a
fullback as result of the injury
jinx which struck the Lion camp
in yesterday's scrimmage, when
flaws revealed in the 9 to 0 vic
tory over Bucknell Saturday were
being ironed out.
Just wen the Nittany team ex
pected to be at full strength for
this Saturday's encounter with
West Virginia, the injury list
claimed both Bill Smaltz and
Pepper Ventresco, the first two
fullbacks. In a skirmish with-the
freshman eleven Smaltz's, ankle
was twisted badly and Ventres
co's old knee injury cropped up
again. While the extent of their
injuries is not yet known, it is
doubtful whether either will be
able to face the Mountaineers.
To' make matters worse, Earl
Brown and Sam Kopach, two re
serve fullbacks, are also ailing'and
may not be available. To offset
this serious loss at the number
three fullback spot, Coach Higgins
has ordered Galeri Bailey, Len
Gramly and Sonny Rice to learn
the fullback assignment immedi
ately.

nalfback, whose shoulder injury
