October 29. 1.940 Thanks To Soccer For A Welcome Relief Someday Penn State's soccer juggernaut is go ng to hit a snag and its string of games without defeat (now at 57 and in its eighth year) Nvill come i.o an end No one expects that to be a particularly un b;:ppy day for Coach Bill Jeffrey. Last year he saw the strain of winning and l•: - i-eping the streak intact wearing on his boys' nerves. He, told them to go out and lose a game 2nd get the streak over. Then. he said. they could get back to playing for fun. He enforces no training rules. Although an old man in terms of most sports. he plays the game better than his boys. He even played with them during an exhibition game with Franklin and Marshall this year. ' From the heaviness and intensity of the harsh business-like, persistent drive for victory that marks most other intercollegiate sports. this is v..elcome relief. Granted. it would not be nearly n.s remarkable had it not been marked by constant r I' ccess Thumbs Down ? Thumbs Up ! Subsidization of college athletics has come to the point where the National Collegiate Athletic AFsociation decided at its national convention last Christmas-time to frown on all kinds of unearned income given athletes. even to oust offending schools from the association. The trouble with that threat, more than one coach has observed, is that not a college in the country . with a big football team would be left in the association if the spirit of the law were en forced. Penn State's athletic heads persistently worry about subsidization. Should it be done? If sc. how much? How should it be done? And so on. Be it said here. as an aside. that the Collegian re cognizes there are strong cases both for and against it but believes the ayes have it. Some gloomy day, it may be well to return to this most serious subject, to ferret out the pros and cons, but the business at hand on this particu lar occasion is not nearly as serious. The reader will do Well to note that 'the par ticular story which follows has not been verified and could quite easily be false. True or false, it is a good story and illustrates a point. It is also welt to note two other things, first that it occurred before the N.C.A.A. looked for a whip, second that even with a whip N.C.A.A. couldn't touch it. • The center of the story is lanky Bob Peoples, whom all but Penn State freshmen will knov.• as the only college athlete in America who was con : intently better in the javelin than Penn State's Nick Vukmanic. PeopleS also is no slouch on a gridiron. Peoples is no flash in the pan. lie threw the ;iavelin 200 feet in high school and was a football zce. The colleges went after him. It simmered down to a choice between U.S.C. and Stanford. No fool. Peoples played thtm against each other for all they were worth. Finally, Stanford made the offer that looked .ike the clincher: Go to U.S.C., see what's the best you can get, and we'll beat it. After that Peoples spent a week at Palo Alto tlnd that, apparently, was that. But he went home to a telegram from his sweetheart: "Bob. 'm flying to Los Angeles. U.S.C. just gave 3.11 , : , a full scholarship." The story doesn't need a finish, but we'll add ot!e. This will be Pecpltli . List year at U.S.C. - l''- - •- -C. Basset!
