Booters Romp to 4-0 Win
Over Cornell Soccermen
Displaying a slashing offensive style reminiscent of the great pre
war Penn State soccer teams, Bill Jeffrey's rejuvenated Blue and
White hooters romped to a 4-0 win over the Big Red of Cornell
Satu rc, a y
A brace of final period paydirt shots by fleet Freddie Kretzer plus
second and third period goals by Ted Lieb and Dean Witmer ac-
counted for the four Lion mark
ers and the Statemen's fourth win
of the season.
In a vengeful mood after their
2-1 setback at the hands of Navy
October 25, Jeffrey's chargers
took the offensive early in the
opening quarter and drove deep
into the invader's backfield ter
ritory to threaten the Cornell net
with repeated goal shots.
CORNELL DEFENSE
Fine defensive play by Cor
nell goalie Bruce Care and full
backs Schwencke and Sheinkman
stymied the first Lion advances,
however, and it wasn't until the
second period that Penn State
was able to connect for its first
marker.
With six minutes of the sec
ond stanza gone, speedy Hal
Hackman, taking. possession of
the ball a few yards inside the
midfield stripe, raced down the
right sidelines and lofted a
scorching boot from the far cor
ner to outside left Ted Lieb who
netted the ball with a spectacu
lar head shot a few feet from
the Cornell net.

You've reached a point where you wonder
if you ever will know what you really do
think ! This time last week you blew dead south. But so
many things have happened since then to Change your direc
tion to due north. Right now you feel rudderless ... and
wishy-washy!
Somebody asks you to go somewhere. You can't make up
your mind. You answer "maybe" or "I'll see"... vaguely put
ting off the chore of coming to grips with a decision. You
don't know what you want to do. You can't decide what to
eat...what to wear...who to call...what to think. You have
moments when you feel completely unstrung.
And for some of you those moments last for years. You
never quite get yourselves collected. You keep blowing hot
and cold. Going overboard for things one minute...avoiding
them like the plague the next. Falling bead over tincups
for people one week...blithely ignoring them the next. You
wear your emotions lightly on the sleeve. And people think
yours is a fickle eye.
They could put their finger on you more readily if your
pros and cons stood lined up in plain sight. If you'd make
it known which foot you stand on. If your opinions and
interests were definite. You'd be easier to cope wit} ...and
to catalogue...if you weren't so changeable.
When you were twelve you were positive you'd grow up
to be a missionary. When you were fourteen you were
equally sure you'd have separate rooms when you got mar
ried. When you were fifteen you knew you'd found the love
of a lifetime. You may not now agree with your former self.
You've accumulated information, experience, new points of
view to color your thinking.
So think as straight as you can right now. Be flatfooted
in your convictions—but keep on learning new ones. Have
reasons for your tastes. Make sharp decisions. It's not a
fatal operation to change your mind !

Higginsmen Notch 6th Straight
In 46- 0 Slaughter Over Maroon
The Nittany Lions left Saturday's honors behind them as they
went back to work yesterday in preparation for the Temple tilt next
week.
The powerful Blue and White chalked up its sixth straight win
this season and its 300th in al years of intercollegiate football when
it downed the Colgate Raiders 46_0 Saturday before 15,000.
A stubborn Maroon defense held the Lions to only 13 points In
the first half, but an endless
stream of Nittany reserves scored
five touchdowns in quick succes
sion to run the score up to within
three points of Colgate's all-time
high tally made against them by
Yale in 1914
EMPTIES BENCH
Coach Bob Higgins used 42 men
against the Raiders in an effort to
hold down the score, which, how
ever, topped the all-time high
made between these two teams
during their 36 year rivalry. The
previous record was a 40-0 Col
gate victory in 19343.
The Bixler coached team netted
a total of minus 15 yards against
the Lion "stone" wall, marking
the second time this season that
a Penn State opponent has re..
treated more than it has ad
vanced on the ground. Syracuse
was thrown back for a minus
yardage of 117 yards.
In keeping with their national
first place in total rushing, the
Higginsmen trampled the Raiders
and had traveled the length of the
gridiron a little over four times
when the final whistle blew,
The Penn Staters piled up a
total of 412 yards on the ground,
the highest this season, and 103
yards passing,

Gorinski finished the third
quarter off by plunging over from
