"We expect a fight," the words
of Mentor Higgins, express vivid

between Penn State, unconquer

A traditional struggle staged 40

Prompted by the strong possi

by the memory of a stinging 14-7
defeat inflicted last year by the
Panthers, Coach Higgins is guard
ing against over-confidence by
tempering the Lions' terrific en
thusiasm following the Navy win.

In Pitt the
Lions will face a team toughened
up by a series of disastrous con

The Panthers' lone victory was a
12-0 decision over Ohio State.
Familiar faces will dot Pitt's
lineup when the Panther s oppose
State. Among them will be that
of halfback Jimmy Joe Robinson,
who scampered 84 yards for the
only tally in Pitt's 7-0 triumph in
1945. On the injured list is full
back Bill Abraham, who was the
top ground-gainer among Pan

over State.

Booters Vie at West Point
In Final Away Appearance
A seventeen-man contingent of
booting Jeffreymen will be gun
ning for the Lions sixth win of
the season when it faces off
against a rugged Army soccer
team this afternoon at West Point.
With the Army tussle today and
the Temple tiff scheduled for Sat
urday, the Lions are slated for
heavy duty this week.
Both the West Point and Owl
aggregations rate high in eastern
collegiate booting circles. Army
has lost three and tied one in its
12 starts this season, while Tem
ple, although also beset by a
weighty schedule, has blasted out
a remarkable victory percentage
that includes wins over Army and
Navy.
LION STARTERS
°belie Gene Graebner, side
lined for head and ear injuries
last week, will replace lanky Ed
Watson of State College at the
starting net position. Although
Graebner accidentally re-opened
his healing injury last Friday
night, the hard working shot
thwarter is anxious for action
against the Cadets, and Jeffrey
has consented to use him but, es
the Scot says, "with care."
Watson, who played a bang-up
game in a sea of mud against the
Orangemen while suffering from a
strained knee, will make the jour

Karver 6th Despite Injury
By ELLIOT }CRANE
"What happened to Jerry Kar
ver in the IC-4A meet Monday?"
That is the question many asked
when they read yesterday's Col
legian. In every dual meet this
year Karver and Ashenfelter
breasted the tape in unison, but
Monday Ashenfelter came in sec
ond while Jerry failed to finish
among the top five.
Although he came in sixth,
Jerry Karver ran possibly the
best race of his medal-winning
career.
