Undefeated Fresh Face Army Plebes By DOM GOLAB , Their 66th straight game with out defeat--that's what the Nittany Lion soccermen will be striving for this afternoon when they meet a highly-respected Army eleven at West Point.. Never an underdog, the, amazing Jeffreymen are favored to register their fifth 'victory of the season, although a stiff battle is expected from the once-beaten Cadets, who are determined to gain their first triumph over the Lions in the sev en-year series.

After tying Brown, 3-3, they were upset• last week by-Har vard, 1-0. Although not sonskiered quite as good as the Navy squad which the Nittanymen outmudded in their last appearance, Army has a rug ged, hard-fighting team and boasts of its center halfback, Captain GO'ykeSon, one of the finest players in collegiate soccer. Guykeson, who was an All-American football play er at Maryland' before entering West Point, was a thorn in Penn State's side in last year's. contest Confident "of stopping Army's one-man attack—and scoring a few goals themselves the Nittany Lions will field one' Of their best balanced teams in history, with a rugged defense and a high-power ed forward line. In inside for Wards Captain Woody King arid Gringo Galindo the Lions have possibly the two finest ball-handlers and passers in college ranks. Also helping to set up goals for Don Megrail, high scoring center forward, will be Smiley Williams, brilliant sopho more outside right, and either Ned , Corman or Jose Lombana at the left wing.

Three reserve half backs, Bill Prichard, Boyd Etters, and Max Chenoweth, may also see action. Veterans Hap Freeman and Alan Heck will start at the fullback posts, and Johnny Struck is expect ed to play his usual bang-up game at the goal-tending position. SChilider, sopboniore 'fullback, leads the IVfountaineers in scoring for seven games. He tallied . nine points last Saturday 'against Kan sas With a field goal and a touch down, running his season's count to 22 points.
