What Now?.
The whys and wherefores of
Saturday's , deadlock at Syracuse
' - are not the issue at the moment_
Penn State's .immediate football
outlook is to the future, the games
yet to -be played with NYU and
Pitt.
To take nothing away from the
fighting Orangemen, we - must
credit the Lions with the spirit,
drive, and ability to come back
'-:in - -:.regaining a tie which looked
like a defeat. -
We must remember, that things
are not' as bad' as they might
seem. State is still undefeated,
one of the few elevens which can
boast such - a condition at this
time.
We must remember
,boys like
Lenny Krouse, Bill Srpaltz, Leon
Gajecki, Tom Vargo, and Frank
Platt, who could have resigned
themselves to fate and said; "Well,
we can't' pull this one out, of the
ere." "
We must remember that the
Lions went into the Hilltop battle
with but three able guards on
their ro,ster. Of these three,
Mike. Garbinski \us hurt badly
enough to put him out of action
early in the game.• Another,
"Hitch-hiker" Wade Mori, would
n't have seen action •if anyone else
had been available. -Still another,
Jim Woodward, listened to the
game from Hotel Syracuse while
battling a temperature of over 100.
•We must remember that the
Orange tie will
. just add to the
misery NYU and Pitt will run in
ta during the next two weeks. •
--BTIJ---
Lenny 'Krouse, who is fast de
veloping, into the - offensivestar
of the Nittany aggregation, tells
this one on himself. When Len
ny was a schoolboy ace back in
Rochester, Pa:, he picked up three
hairpins prior to one of his
games. In that battle, he scored
three touchdowns. Since then,
the ace Lion wingback has been
making a collection of hairpins.
Saturday he found two hi Syra
cuse on his way to the game. The
- results are shown in the score
sheet.
-8M. , .-
A drastic weekend in which
two ties and three bad *Aces
turned' up, dropped BTL's pre
diction average to .783 with a
grand. total of 58 correct, 16
Wrong, and 6 ties.

Jeffreynien Blank Army, 5-0,
To Extend Record To 59 Games
Like an irresistible force, the
Penn State soccer machine rolled
over the. West Point eleven, 5-0,
to extend the season's, undefeated
record to five games and leave
only Penn and Temple in the way
of the Lions' eighth year without
a loss.
. Army played a rushing game
throughout the entire contest and
several times threatened to score
but Goalie Zen Leskaris halted the
drive each time.
Scorers for the Nittanymen
were Van Hartman, - Gringo. Galin
do and Don Megrail: Don Dur
ain booted the other two markoes;
The game,was replete with col
lisions and spills, but the Jeffrey
men came out of the fray with
scarcely any battle scars. Time
arid again the skill of the Lion
booters in handling the ball and
clever passing had the Cadets be
wildered and almost every tally
found the Weit Pointers taken off
guard.
John Guckeyson, Army center
halfback, bore the brunt of both
the offensive and the defensive for
the visiting team.
Penn State 1 2 0 2-5
Army 0 0 0 0-0
Substitutions: Penn State—Tay
lor, Dufford, Ernst, Arnold, Sea
vy, Jones and Cherbak.
Freshman Grid Squad
Leaves For Encounter
With Army Tomorrow
The—freshmln football squad,
26 strong, will leave Lewistown
by train at 8:55 a. m. today for
West Point where - they face the
Army plebes tomorrow afternoon
in the last battle on the yearling
schedule. -
The team •will be minus the
services of two and possibly three
regular performers. Bob Wallace,
end, and Jack Banbury, fullback,
are definitely out and while John'
-Jaffurs has the doctor's 0. K., he
will not see much action unless
he is in top physical condition,
Coach Marty. McAndrews said last
night.
Bucky Walters, end-around spe
cialist who scored against Cornell
and who tallied the all-important
extra point against Colgate", will
play in place of Wallace. Jim
Thompson, almost on a par with
Banbury in ability, will be the
starting fullback. If Jaffurs fails
to start,. his place will be taken by
Paul Schlegel.

Downs Cornell, 27-28

THE DAILY _ COLLEGIAN
Smith Shatters Record
In His Last Dual Race;
Pitt Beats Harriers, 25-30
He's done it again!
Flashing his championship form
in a record-breaking run, Captain
Billy Smith ended his dual racing
career Friday against Pitt by shat
tering the Schenley Park course
mark in 26:28.5 minutes as his har
rier teammates lost a surprising
upset to the Panthers, 25-30.
Undefeated this year, the small
Nittany captain swung past Pitt's
Walt Serner at the one-mile mark
er- and finished almost one minute
ahead of the Panther runner.
Pop Thiel and Chet Snyder mis
fired in their timing over the steep
course and let Pitt's Sterner, Mc-
Cabe, and Allias pull a last-minute
spurt to capture second, third, and
fourth positions.
With the times much faster than
last year's marks because ths
Schenley Park course was in per
fect condition, the Panther trio
paced themselves to a well-timed
advantage over Thiel and Snyder,
who fitarted out too cautiously on
the strange Panther course. .
The summaries:
1. Smith, 'Penn State ....25:28.5
2. Sterner, Pitt 26:13
3. McCabe, Pitt 26:13.5
4. Allias, Pitt . 26:15
5. Thiel, Penn State • - 26:25
6. • Snyder, Penn State ....26:42
7. Broskey, Pitt 27:29
8. Kotz, Penn State 28:09
3. Davis, Pitt - - 28:35-

current season with three losses

leashed a strong ground attack.
and several tricky passes to
smother the jayvees, 25-0, on

plays in the second and fourth
quarters. Bill Fitchko, Pitt full
back; also - plunged over in the
fourth period and then converted.
A 35-yard pass in the first
quarter scored the other six
pointer for the Panthers. Fitch
ko faded back to midfield and
tossed an aerial that was caught
tally.
Cap Bailey's kicking for Danny
DeMarino's 'team was exceptional.

punts and pulled the Demons out
of many' tough spots.
