Eight of our nine oppon ents opened their campaigns over the _weekend and when the last whistle blew, all of them with the exception of Lehigh, who tied, con tinued merrily on their way unde feated. And what is still more important than the scores, Bob Higgins' scouts came back with reports that spell a series of tough Saturday af •ternonns for the Nittanymen. Un fortunately for our untried eleven, probably - the toughest foe of the campaign .will be met on foreign soil this Saturday. But more about that later this week. • From the dope brought back by Scouts Al 'Michaels and Danny r:le- Marino, Colgate has everything necessary for a great team. The Red Raiders have been grooming for the 1941 season for the past two years and: are. now all set to bask in the football limelight that was theirs in the early thirties. The manner in which Andy Kerr's min ions rolled up a 66-0 score over St. Lawrence Was Very impressive. Opponents Loom Tough Temple,:SOUth d' Carolina and also came through in high gear. The Owl's, led•by•Andy Toth asid, had a- - touchdown parade against Kansas on Friday night. The Colitinbia Gamecocks pulled one of the big:uriseth Of the day by pushing • over a last period score against North' Carolina to win, 14- 7. Syracuse . will be stronger this year and While a 35-0 victory over little. Clark Son doesn't mean Much, the Orangemen are really priming for their TfouSeparty clash here on November 8. • We went up Lewisburg way with Marty McAndrews to watch the Bisons in the. opener against Leb anon Valley and came back unim pressed. Bucknell squeezed through to a narrow victory and on paper doesn!t show enough power to cause us any trouble. But the Bi sons .always play, over their heads againSt State and this year promise to duplicate ,previous feats... In the other clashes of interest to the Lions, West Virginia was slow in getting under way and merely edged out Waynesburg by a touch" doWn margin. New York Univer sity and Lehigh, the only oppon ents over wh6m the Lions can be rated as strong Pre 7 game favor ites,at this stage of the-season, beat Pennsylvania Military College and tied Hartwick, 'respectiliely. Pitt remained idle. Basketball Call All sophomore candidates in - - terested in baske,ball should re port to Coach John' Lawther at Rec Hall any afternoon this week.

Beaver Ave. Dial 3261 Lions Seek To Strong Colgate Geyer Provides Punch For Raiders' Attack The Nittany Lion eleven is sharpening its defensive claws for Saturday's gr.diron tilt with Coach Andy Ken's Red Raiders from Colgate whc can be trusted to use a bag full of razzle-dazzle tactics. • Yesterday the varsity drilled against offensive thrusts by the freshman team. , Penn State's line still remains a question, according to Coach Bob Higgins who says that its real test will come' when it stacks up against the big and heavy Col gate forward wall. To aid the line, the backfield has been con centrating on its defensive power. Dangerous offensive players in "the Colgate backfield, when the Red Raiders trounced St. Law rence last Saturday 66-0, were In dian' Bill Geyer, Ed Phinney, and Jules Yokopovich. Geyer is the "fastest back ever to wear the Maroon," according to Colgate dopesters. He shook himself loose half a dozen times in the St. Lawrence game and scored two touchdowns. "We'll have to watch Geyer when we punt to him because he runs like a deer," Coach Higgins remarked. Colgate will have a powerhouse backfield, if last Saturday's game inditated their true strength. One of the touchdown drives in the third' quat'ter'ocovered 75 yards in th , ree 04y . §. On- the first, Geyer went 25 yards, on the second he broke' loose for 31 yards arid then Mike Micka; . ftillback; Carried the ball 19 yards over the goal. Because of a slight leg injury Mike Kerns is uncertain of start ing -at his tackle post on Saturday. Yesterday Coach Higgins decided switch - ..Ken Schoonover -to the position if necessary. Schoonover was previously a- tackle, but had been converted into an end. Though the line has been burd ened with heavy workouts for the last few days, the offensive power in the backfield has been strength ened .by the .improvement of re serves Jack Banbury, in the full back slot and Bill Debler at left halfback. Players who Will probably start, although Coach- Higgins has not made his final choice, are John Potsklan and Bob Davis, ends; Schoonover and Bernie Brosky, tackles; Jim Bonham . and Red Yoh°, guards; Chuck Raysor, cen ter;. Paul Weaver, quarterback; Captain Len Krouse, right half; Bill Smaltz, fullback; and Pepper Petrella,, left halfback. Ex-Penn. State Boxer Undefeated In Army Bernie Sandson, standout boxer on Penn State's 1940 champion ship Eastern Intercollegiate boxing team, is piling up an• impressive record as an Army boxer. The .. former .Nittany 'hexer has been working for Uncle Sam. the past three months at Aberdeen, Md. He has yet to lose a boking encounter since entering the Army. ,Sandson, who is in State College for a visit ; has won five decisions, one knockout, and fought to one draw. His latest victory came Monday night when he took a decision from Pat Vendrillo, a Manchester, Conn. puncher who had won 23 out of 24 starts. THE DAILY COLLEGIAN Throttle OFfense PUNT .

Lion. boaters Win 116 Since 1911 One hundred sixteen victories agaihst only 12' defeats—that's the Nittany Lion Booters' 30-year re cord which. has made Penn State Synonymous With sensational soc cer. Inaugurating soccer as a Col lege sport in 1911, Penn State got off to a slow start, failing to 're gister a triumph in the two games played that year: After seven more mediocre seasons, in which Penn and Haverford each beat the Lions twice and Girard won once, the Blue and White hit a winning stride in 1919 and have been consistent winders ever since. When Bill Jeffrey took over the coaching .reins in 1926, he was faced with the tough problem of upholding a .810 winning per centage' compiled since 1911. But in the past 15 years the genial Scot's teams piled up the incred ible total of 85 victories againSt only six losses for a .934 mark which boosted the 30-year average to .914. • Jeffrey's teams have never had a year in which they failed to record more wins +llan losses. The Lions bowed to Toronto and Navy. in 1927 and to Princeton in 1930. Then in 1932 Jeffrey experienced his worst season, losing to Har vard, Springfield, and Syracuse. .It was following that memor able tilt with the Orange that the Nittany booters began their cur rent 81 game stteak-without-de feat.
