It's.-about - time the

. "Statelnent" last' week about all

.Dr...Hetzel made the quote' at• the
`193 . 9'. football :
,banquet arid' at
an Alimmi' dinner last winter:
• In reality, there is no- reason to
lielieve that Prexy would want to
see - 'State:get• lielted:Tn fact, we
doubt Whether- there is anyone on
the•Periff- State , canvas who' is more
overjoyed' after •a. L ion- vie to ry thari
Prexy.- •
-.When he stated that continuous
athletVc sucCess . 'waS harrittful to
soliolarshits; he was' speaking from
-the .viewpciint of •ans - r' good; educa
tor, and he was right.. .
But what he did' not Mean, you
can. t be -sure, is that Penn State was
in .the class' of Pitt' 'a feW , years
hack and some of: the Southern
colleges at the ritorient: Nei - did not
mean to direct" the statetrient at
Lion football teams- any- more than
he.,did at any: .othez institutions,
: because the Ilittany record: fort' the
past few seasons has been anything
but all-triumphant.
- Somethnes •we think- newspaper
men have too good an imagination.

Today in Philadelphia, the Lion
soccermen seek their sixtieth win
without a" defeat against a strong
Penn boot outfit. Sooner or later
some Collegian sports editor is
going to have to break doWn and
write a sad, sad, column about how
the Nittan'y•kickers have succumb
ed to that inevitable beating. I am
of ,the sincere - opinion that this is
not the year in which it will hap

Lion Eleven Runs
Through Scrubs.
With only three days remaining
before the titanic struggle between
the undefeated Nittany Lions and
the clawing 'Pittsburgh Panthers,
Coach Bob Higgins put his charges
through the last scrimmage of the
season yesterday afternoon.
The varsity and second team,
enjoyed a Roman holiday at the
expense' of the third stringers by
romping to numerous gains and
touchdowns time after time'. The
regulars scored thrice in the early
part of the practice session before
giving way tolhe• second: eleven.
Bill Smaltz. started• the scoring
proceedings with a 10-yard smash
through , center which was reminis . -
cent of his great playing in the
Pitt game last year. The second
'siX-pointer* cattle on , e a 0 yard re
. verse run , by Len Krouse and , was
followed' a , few minutes• later by a.
long , pass' from Smaltz to Torn
Vargo , for another tally.
Led by SParky Brown-and Ralph
the second stringers
continue& the high.- scoring plays
• and showed a polished offense that
:bodes. no good for Saturday's• op
ponent.
A slight dam Pet was put on• the
good- offensiVe showing of the grid=
ders when Wade , Mori and Bill
Smaltz , were , forced to leave' the
field because a recurrence - of old•
injuries. 'Morh knee injury' began
to give him trouble and Smaltz's
ankle was slightly twisted. Both,
however, are expected to see ac
tion in the final game of the year.
BEAT PITT
might spell bad omens for the visit
of the Lions • in Pittsburgh Satur
day. From the statistics, Pitt should
have won over the once-licked
Corn-huskers. Remember, too, that
the Panthers were, without the
services of several of their best
lads, Thurbon and. Jones.
