IRemember how worried we all
were last spring as to how the draft
Would effect Penn 'State athletic
teams in the pear future? Well,
now that we definitely know just
-who is back and who was claimed
on waivers by Uncle Sam, we can
clean house and call the roll. .
First of gall, the Lions as well as.
other colleges throughout the coun
try got a terrific break when the
age limit for draftees remained at
'the original 21-year bracket in
stead of -being lowered to 18 as was
expected. If any single factor could .
.give intercollegiate sports a knock .
out punch, that Would be it.
As It is, most' college athletes
don't reach voting age until their
-graduation on senior year. So while
.the Selective Service Act will'claim
-a few standout players here and
there,
.on the whole the great ma-.
jority already in college are pretty
safe bets .to see. varsity 'action for
two years 'at least, unless Congress
changes the rules of the game be
foie the final whistle blows.
Penn State is also forlunate in
having a -large engineering school
and a ROTC unit, one of the big
. gest in the-East. Where Other in
stitutions have lost key men, ours
have been deferred because of ad
-vanced ROTC 'or through their
training Which is deemed indispen
aible to our national defense.
Through a stroke 'of luck athletes
like ten Krouse, Dick Grimes, El
mer GrOsg and many others are
technologyy students, and as such
are, subject to deferrment by - their
local boards So where we expect
. ed
,to find our casualty list heavy

_Nittany Line
Remains Big Problem
Brosky, Bonham And
Jaffurs Improve Fast
No players are trying harder to
develop , into a fast and hard
charging aggregation than the Nit
tany forward wall. They seem to
know their trade, hut only the heat
of battle with strong opponents
will give them the real test.
AS October 4 draws nearer for
the Lions' encounter with a fast
and heavy Colgate eleven which
boas 6 that "this is the year," for
them, post assignments on the line
are still uncertain . About the only
player who has clinched a position
on the starting team is Mike Kerns
at tackle and he must train into
better condition.
Since Ken Schoonover was mov
ed to a terminal post, Bernie .Bro-
sky, 215-pound tackle, looms like a
tower of strength. Brosky was
slated for a reserve position but
his rugged defensive play during
schedule, we find only a handful of
established athletes missing from
the files. - -
The two most serious losses were
Mike Gatbinski and Bob Baird.
Mike played plenty of guard in a
senior line which' packed an im
pregnable defense and a hole open
ing offense from end to end, "This
year with a bunch of green sopho
mores sand untried upperclassmen
to take 'their plate, his loss will be
felt greatly.
Baird, runnerup in the nationals,
was one of the very few things
from last year's 'boxing team Leo
Houck could beam about. With
their capale tapiain gone, the mit
men will find a rough road 'ahead.

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN
the past few days has improved
quickly.
Two sophomores, Jim Bonham
and John Jalfurs, have shown rap
id improvement at the guard posts
and have been spending a lot of
their time on the first team. With
Bob Davis' consistent play at the
other end post, pairing with
Schoonover, the line looks like one
'capable of supporting the first
string backfield of Captain Len
Krouse, Paul Weaver, Bill Smaltz
and Pepper Petrella.
If these eleven players draw the
starting assignments, the INittany
Lions will field a shorter team
than in the past few years. Only
five of the team will be six feet
tall--Brosky, Schoonover, Krouse,
Smaltz, and Weaver.
In yesterday's practice in pass
defense, punting, and signal drill
Sparky Brown looked' like his old
shifty self as he returned a kick
off for a touchdown and turned in
other bits of nice running.
Noticing Jack Banbury's speedy
talent in the fullback slot, Coach
- Bob Higgins said: "That boy is, a
real runner and we expect big
things of him this year."

Pressing Veterans Hard
For Starting Positions
When seasoned holdovers from
last year's Eastern intercollegiate
soccer championship squad re
turned to practice sessions this
week, they learned that their
starting positions are endangered
by a number of clever, nimble
footed sophomores.
Although unwilling to venture
even a guess, at this early stage,
on the lineup wl - Uch will open the
season against Coigate on October
11, the Lion coach said that goal
