THE DAILY COLLEGIAN
Coach Bill Jeffrey
Soccer Coach Bill Jeffrey's
biggest job is producing Penn
State's habitually great soccer
teams, but when not tutoring the
boosters Bill turns to other prac-
tices one of which is writing
poetry, most of which is about the
game he loves.
Proud
,of the team's reputation
for giving every candidate a more
than ample opportunity to . prove
his soccer prowess, the amiable
Scot has recently composed the
following ballad about a hooter
hopeful who just couldn't make
the grade.
He said he was a forward
So we put him on the wing.
He couldn't raise a gallup,
And his shots they had no sting
We tried him then at center,
But alas was just the same.
He never could accept a ,pass;
Fraternity All-Stars And Firehouse
Meet In Championship Game
In one last attempt to break
the hold that Firehouse pitcher
Art Borsa has held on them, the
boys from fraternity row have
organized an All=Star softball
team, made up of the outstanding
players in this Summer's friu
ternity league race, to engage in
a showdown battle with the Canal
St. Firehouse tomorrow.
After the severe going-over suf
fered by Phi Delta Theta at the
hands of the Firehouse last week,
it was apparent that no individual
fraternity could match the all-
College champions when playing
at their full strength. So an All-
Star fraternity squad has been
organized in an • effort' to provide
the best competition possible for
manager John Silan's Canal St.
ten.
The tentative lineup for the
All-Stars will be Smith, catcher;
Kerns, pitcher; Germain, first
base; Cleland, second bas e;
Quailey, short stop; Moriarta,
third base; Scott, short field;
Phillips, left field; Baldi, center
field; and Dickson, right field.
McKinney, Hull, and Kelly are
also on the squad.

In fact he spoiled the others'
game.
We tried him then at halfback,
Shoved him in among the rest.
He tried to feed the forward,
But he fed the grandstand best
Then at fullback we played him,
But what a Mess he made.
He never stopped a single run.
He really seemed afraid.
At last in goal we played him,
But he was dogged by fate.
'Cause he only saved a single
shot
And let in forty-eight
So we put him on the transfer
list,
And I don't think we did wrong,
Because he's starring now, they
tell me,
Not at soccer, but ping pong.
