Michigan
Anil White, 33-0
Blue
A jittery and over-confident
Penn State eleven dropped its
second; game of the season to a
supei'ior Michigan State squad,
33-0, on Macklin Field, East Lans
ing. With the Lion star, Joe Te
sic, sidelined with a charley horse
suffered in practice, a much faster
and more alert Spartan eleven
passed -its way to a decisive vic
tory over Penn State, as Orange
Bowl hopes faded.
The Lions, with everything to
lose or- gain, demonstrated their
concern by throwing away two
touchdown passes in the first few
minutes of play. The Spartans,
with nothing to lose, reciprocated
in'a kicking duel.
■However, when Lang fumbled
the ball on the Nittany.Lion 29,
Michigan State took up the offen
sive which had. failed to mater
ialize. Tepsic’s absence- was pos
sibly the reason for this apparent
lack of-Penn State spark.
Three short passes followed the
Spartan fumble recovery, and
then Bteslin piled over for the
first score.
In the second quarter the Michi
gan State attack gathered impetus,
and culminated in a fumble by
■Bellas on the Lion eleven.- (Reader
then flipped a 10 yard pass to
Huey who went over for the se
cond marker. ' .; .
An interception by. the Spartans
on •;the mid-stripe- started- the
.third touchdown drive. A pass by
: Conti and-two by Reader, all com
plete and in succession, and the
.half, ended; Penn State 0,-Michi
gan State 20.
In the third quarter Conti
tossed from the-38 to-Reader on
the, 20 who went on to score.
( Triplett, fumbled on the 15, and
the' Spartans" took ' over.' Penn
State; very much on the defensive,
stalled {He Black and Gold attack
on the six yard. lipe. After an. ex
change of punts, Bellas fumbled
on' the Lion 24. Two short passes
1 later, Breslin - went over for • the
last Spartan tally.
■Michigan' State's third team
then went in, and the game ended
•with the- Spartans on the Blue
and White’s 32.
The .vaunted -Penn State at
tack was apparently lost without
its sparkplug, Joe TepsLc. The
three lost -fumbles and the three
Spartan interceptions did riot help
either, but the decisive Black and
Gold aerial offensive was the big
factor in the sinking of the Col
lege eleven.
The Spartan attack centered
around i Russel Reader, a Univer
sity of Michigan transfer. He had
previously not shown up on Mich
igan's squad, .“but 'he surely stood'
out on the Michigan State eleven.
• Pittsburgh is' reputed to have
a better passing offensive than the
Spartan’s air raiding, which over
whelmed Penn State.

Down Lions
’ Penn State's soccer team closed
its season Saturday by losing a
well-fought game to the undefeat
ed U. S. Naval Academy, 4-1.
The Lions, according to Coach
Bill Jeffrey, were beaten by the
best team in the country, as next
week’s final clash with Army will
prove. From comparative scores,
the Lion mentor points out that
the Cadets were hard put Satur
day in gaining a 2-0 verdict over
Cornell, whereas the Lions had
no trouble at all in conquering the
same team, 8-0.
The game was a tight defensive
battle throughout the first half
with neither side gaining a de
cided advantage. The Middies
fought through for a score in the
first quarter, however, and led at
halftime, 1-0.
In the second half, .the superior
Navy offense began to click and
two quiok goals were scored in the
third quarter, with Itheir fourth
and final soore coming in the last
period. Freshman Jerry Cooper
broke through the Middies’ tight
defense for the Lions’ only Score.
“There is no doubt that the
Middies have a faster, trickier and
•more experienced squad. They
have at least four or five potential
All-Americans, and their goalie
was exceptional,” Coach Jeffrey
said after the game. It was the
second victory over Penn State in
a row for ’ the Middies (having
topped the Lions last year) and the
third time they have done the trick
since 1927. .
• The Lions, with six freshmen in
the starting lineup this season, fin
ished with a record of two wins,
two losses, and one tie. They
dawned Muhlenberg and Cornell,.
7-1 and 8-0, lost to Temple and
Navy, 2-0 and 4-1, and battled
Army to a scoreless tie.

THE COLLEGIAN
Outlook Dark
For Pitt Game
The outlook is none too brilliant
for the Nittany Lion eleven in the
scheduled clash with the Pitts
burgh Panthers Saturday. In faict,
everything points to our losing the
contest.
We were badly beaten last Sat
urday by a Michigan State squad
which boasted a tapnotch passing
assault and a tapnotch passer, Rus
sel Reader. Pitt’s passing attack
has been rated above the . Spar
tans, and to top it off their passing
ace, Billy .Wolff, has been called by
some “a smaller version of Sammy
Baugh.”
Two of the reasons for our loss
to Michigan State were sluggish
’play, and Joe Tepsic’s injury.
There is still no indication that
Tepsic will" start and, in addition,
Bronico KOsanovich; Chuck Draz
enoviich, Wally .Triplett, and Larry
Cooney were hurt in the game, but
they -will probably play.
The Panthers will be out to win
in order to salvage part of their
season. Clark Stoaughnessy is in
grave danger of losing his coach
ing position at Pitt, so his ball
players will be trying extra hard
just for -him.
Penn State will have no passing
ace who can consistently pitch
strikes like Billy Wolff. The -Lions
may also be handicapped because
of injuries, by a lack of backs like
Jimmy Joe Robinson and Ed Zim
mowan.
The combination to waitch,
though, because of the certainty
of a concentrated aerial onslaught,
will be Wolff via the air .waves to
end Ed Skladany.
As far as games won and lost
go, the record would seem- to
favor the Blue and White. Penn
State h&s won five and lost two,
while Pitt has taken only two,
dropping six. But Pitt has one of
the toughest schedules of any team
of similar rating in the country.
Pitt also lost to Temple and Mich
igan State, but, -as the amazing
number of “upsets” show, statis
tics mean next to nothing this sea
son.
Whatever may be the outtoome,
the Pift-Penn State game remains
a question mark, to be answered
only on Saturday.
