Lions To Face
Colgate Raiders
Boasting a 48-0 triumph over a
Rochester team that had prev
iously won two of their three
games, Colgate's Red Raiders in
vade New Beaver Field tomorrow
afternoon to engage the Nittany
Lions.
Just before the kickoff,
spectators will observe sever-
al moments of silence in mem
ory of Penn Staters killed in
action. A eulogy will be read
and Taps will be sounded at
this time, according to Burke
M. Hermann, professor of
American history, who is in
charge of the ceremony.
Andy Kerr, who heads Colgate's
eleven for the 17th season, brings
with him a much better club than
last year's which dropped a close
6-0 decision to the Lions. The
Raider '45 aggregation is faster,
(heavier and trickier.
According to End Coach Earl
Edwards, who scouted the Colgate-
Rochester contest, the boys from
Hamilton, N. Y., have a well
rounded attack that ought to give
the Blue and White keen competi
tion.
"Colgate impressed me as being
very smooth for their first game,"
declared Edwards. "They didn't
make the usual number of first
game mistakes, and if the first
stringers were in longer, the
score would have been a lot high
er."
Sticking to their double-wing
back formation, the Red Raiders
have an offense that centers
around Glenn Treichler, 155-
pound scatback, acclaimed by
Coach Kerr one of the greatest
backs he ever had. Not only does
Treichler have sped, but his pass
ing arm is accurate.
Kicking chores will fall on
lanky George , Heddy, quarter
back, while James Cox and Walt
Cowie round out. a hard-hitting
backfield. •
Starting for Kerr's team. as ends
are two boys who gained all-state
recognition in New Jersey, War
ren Davis and Dick Birkins. Bir
kins, incidentally, is the only first
string lineman who is neither a
six-footer nor weighs over 200
pounds.
Familiar faces on the. team-1
opposing the Lions are Paul
Redfield, tackle, and James Groh,
guard. Both played a bang
up game last year against State's
gridders. Filling the forward line
are Paul Thompson, guard; Milton
McClure, center; William Dudley,
tackle.

TAILBACK JOE TEPSIC
TEPSIC AND VENTRESCO, both war-hardened veterans, will com
bine next semester to give Penn State's attack new drive. Meanwhile
only Tepsic is playing, as Ventresco was declared ineligible. Nolan,
V-12 trainee, and freshman Tamburo have proved their worth.
Barracks 9 Leads Tourney
Barracks 9 retained their lead in
the V-12 touch football tourney
with the push of "Buzz" Cloud's
educated toe. In two games he
came through. He broke a 6.6
deadlock with Barracks 36 by
neatly placing a field goal, which
decided the game, 9-6, in favor of
Barracks 9. The touchdowns were
scored by Red Williams for Bar
racks 36, and Jim Shanks for Bar
racks 9.
Buzz again came through to end
a 7-7 tie with Barracks 37 by once
more kicking one between the

Coach Bill Jeffrey Returns
After Serving
returned to the campus after a
leave of absence in which he par
ticipated in the Army sports train
ing school, which was held in
Rome, Italy. •
Coach Jeffrey and eight other
coaches were assigned to the Cen
tral Sports School of the Special
Service Division of the Army.
Commanding this group was Al
l3agett of West Texas Teachers
College. Their primary function
was to set up a program which
would make instructors of Gl's
who could later return as coaches
in their old outfits.
The success of the school is well
indicated by the fact that they
trained 350 students from July 1
to September
Commenting upon Mussolini
Stadium, Coach Jeffrey said, "It
is one of the finest in the world
and could well be an asset to any
college in the country."
The assemblage had ample time
to swim in one of Mussolini's two
private pools. The coaches con
cluded that 11 Duce was not an
expert swimmer for the water was
not over five feet deep at any
point.
"The city of Rome was practi
cally untouched by bombs," said
EOM
Muhlenberg Till
Proves No Thrill
Opening games come and go, and
Saturday's tilt with Muhlenberg
was one that barely provided an
afternoon's entertainment for the
fans.
Twelve minutes of play in the
first quarter saw the Nittany first
stringers roll over a hapless bUt
plucky Mule eleven to score four
times. After that, spectators be
came more interested in their pro
grams, hot dogs, and pop than in
the proceedings on the field.
Commenting on the game, Coach
Bob Higgins said that he knows
nothing more about the Lions now
than he did before the contest.
"Muhlenberg," , he continued,
"put up a game fight but they
were definitely outclassed." The
only thing Higgins observed of a
positive nature was that the grid
ders will have to do a lot of im
proving to have a successful sea
son.
Joe Tepsic scored on the fourth
scrimmage play of the game on a
52 yard dash, and a few minutes
later added another '6 pointer on a
two yard plunge. The other two
first period scores came. via the
air waves with Al Belles tossing to
Ross Herron in the end zone, and-
Larry Cooney snaring -a Muhlen
berg aerial and running 65 yards
for the tally.
The Lion second team kept up
the rout by scoring three addi
tional touchdowns during the sec
ond quarter. Speedster Bob Kritzer
skirted end for 36 yards to reach
paydirt. Floyd "Tubby" Lang went
over from the four, and Bob Mc-
Coy intercepted another Mule pass
and scored after a 17 yard run.
Lang's exceptional kicking pav- .
ed the way for State's other score.
Quick-kicking,-Lang's punt rolled
dead on the one yard marker and
Bob Rapp, Mule quarterback, de
cided to .run with the ball. Sam
Tamburo, freshman end, camp
down the field fast and tackled
Rapp behind the goal-line for a
safety.

perienced one of the high spots o
our trip when we were given
private audience with the Pope.'
"I showed some excellent 111
