FRIDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1945\ Lion Chargers Challenge Saltine Warriors Oct. 27 After a two Weeks rest follow ing the Navy tilt, coach Bob Hig gins’ Lion chargers are ready to return to ' gridiron competition against'’ Syracuse University on Saturday 'afternoon at the New Beaver Field, at 2 p.m. Rated as one of the East’s stronger elevens, the Lions are ex pected to gain added prestige when they face the Orange. Being favored to win won’t keep Higgins from firing his “big guns” until the Blue and White is sure of vic tory. The Saltine Warriors may give State unexpected trouble. Under dogs usually dp. Coach Ossie Sol em has talent on the Orange squad and if he can break it loose against the Lions, onlookers fvill be in for a thrill-packed game. The 1945 edition of the Penn State eleven is big, fast and hard hitting. • Boasting a line that av erages close to 200 pounds, the Lions have displayed an abun dance of defensive prowess. The forward wall has swallowed up the ground gaining attempts of most of their opponents, with vis ible success. The ends, which Higgins didn’t figure would come up to par have thus far'done a stalwart defensive job of guard ing the flanks, and the ground de fenses of the backfield have strengthened with each game. In the aerial department it is a lit tle different. The Lion backs have let a few costly passes be com pleted and it’s this weakness in pass defenses that might- spell trouble for the Higmen. The ground offense has a speed department in which halfback Joe Tepsic features. Tepsic is a great scat back with power; a combina tion that, is welcomed by any football mentor. The ex-Marine has added a definite scoring punch to the Lion attack. .
