Brother Act Scores as . ...
Temple Dumps Lion Boaters, 2-1
Coach Jeffrey’s hooters were toppled from the ranks of the un
defeated Saturday when a powerful Temple squad tallied its winning
score on a'penalty kick late in the final period to down the Lions, 2-1.
The Blue and White hooters, with six wins, a tie and a loss to
their credit* wind up the 1946 season against Penn in Philadelphia
on Thanksgiving.
A’penalty kick by Temple’s 1945 All-American George Barlow
was “headed” into the net by his brother Fred after the ball veered
away from the goal following the boot. The win gave the Owls a
record of six triumphs against a tie with the Cadets from West Point.
Unlike previous contests, both teams failed to tally in the first
half. Paul Bender scored the initial goal—his first of the season—
in the third quarter. However, the
Owls tied it up quickly in the
same period when Dath tallied on
a pass from McLaughlin.
Still Seeks Thirteenth
The loss put the clamps on Bill
Jeffrey’s hopes for his thirteenth
undefeated season. Apparently
the lucky locker number “thir
teen” that the Canny Scot uses
failed against the Philadelphia ag
gregation.
; Penn State’s scoring total is now
up to 29 goals with the Quaker
match still to be‘ played. The
Lion’s opposition • has tallied 4
markers against the Nittaiiy
squad. Ken Hosterman failed to
score Saturday; the second
time this yearn; The Lion center
forward did not score against Get
tysburg-in the'opener, but pene
trated the opponents’ net in every
tussle except for the Temple con
test..

Cuban Stars
Imitate U. S.
Gene Wettstone, Lion gym
coach,. has found Cuban youths
very sports-minded and eager to
imitate the American athlete,
both in appearance and- perform
ance.
“They study American movies,
and do everything they can to
copy the methods of Americans,”
Wettstone says. “They even shave
their mustaches, even though the
adornment is popular, in order to
look more hk||s': their American
counterparts.”.^^-
Coach Wettstone, who has twice
led the Nittarty Lions to national
recognition .in gymnastics, accept
ed an invitation from the Amateur
Athletic Union, to visit Cuba and
train their gymnasts for the
forthcoming Central America
Olympics.
“The average- Cuban gymnast,”
“Wettstone reports, “is small but
strong and possesses, quick muscu
lar reaction. He, is conscious of
.difficulty, and spends only a mini-
mum of time on form, composition
and execution. .But' he’s a'hard
worker, and never tires of prac
tice." ..
Because of the intense heat dur-
ing the day, Cuban athletes do
' their chores at night—from 9 p.m.
to 1 a.m'. “Nobody,” Wettstone
• moans,” goes to bed until 2 a.m. or
later."

PHILIP MORRIS!
ALWAYS BETTER.*.BETTER ALL WAYS
Hum Uses Camera
To Check Progress
Of Own , Rival Band
Scouting the opposition via the
movie camera no longer is limited
to football.
Hummel Fishburn, who’s in
charge of Penn State’s famed Blue
Band, says he has been using the
movie camera for years to scout
his owni. and jdval marching
units.
“It’s wonderful,” Hum reports.
“We take a couple of hundred
feet at an important game, then
run it back in front of the 'boys
and show them where they do
right, and where they do wrong.”
Fishibum, who played in the
Blue Ban r i as an undergraduate
ifbarly a quarter 0 f a century ago,
says the movies furnish; an ex
cellent medium through which to
study various formations and
techniques, not only of his own
band but also of bands from rival
institutions.
The Penn 1 State bandmaster
adds that the practice was re
vived this year for the first time
since the war, although his band
had looked to camera assistance
before the war.
