THE DAILY COLLEGIAN Jeffrey Optimistic About Squad's Chances Nine undefeated seasons—the greatest record in collegiate his tory—Will be the mark that Penn State's eight soccer opponents at tempt to break this year. Ever since the day in 1932 when the Syracuse booters downed the Nittany - Lions 2-1, the record has remained unblemished. Bill Jeffrey's teams won 61 games and tied 4 since the game against the Orange. They have amassed a total of 255 points against their opponents meagre 31. The Jeffreymen weren't scored upon for an entire season-1.935 and remained that way the next year until villainous SyraLse broke the ice on October 31: 1936. As for the chances of another undefeated season this year, the Wily Scbt was optimistic. With Dick Dearborn, a reserve fulliclack, the only one not heard from yet, the draft has not hit the Lion booters too harshly. The soccer mentor will have a tough time replacing Captain Walt Hosterman, Van Hartman, , and Don Durain, but last year's frosn team will afford plenty of new talent. Captain Woody King, Don Me grail, Ned Corman, and Hap Free man, all regulars last year, will form the nucleus of this year's team. The status of Gazzy Green, another of last year's starters, is still uncertain, although Jegrey thinks he will return. • Last year the Lions won eight contests and were awarded the Eastern intercollegiate title for the eighth time, sharing honors with Prineton for the second consecutive year. Colgate has replaced Western Maryland in the only change of schedule from last year's slate to this year's. '4O reams Record 144 Won, 73 Lost During the past year of regular intercollegiate competition in 17 sports, the varsity and freshman teams competed in 221 contests, winning 144, losing 72, and tying 4, to record a .651 winning per centage.
