Consensus
Conscientious Clancy, our ad
miring fraternity brother, two
days ago sat down to the mam
moth job of surveying the pre
dictions of ten “leading” football
soothsayers.-
Yesterday Clancy came up with
a consensus prediction that puts
the Nittany Lions in the East’s
1948 top drawer and seventh in
the nation at the end of the sea
son.
Misleading
The age-old concept of a “start
ing lineup” in football is now mis
leading. Time was when the
names you read in the newspaper
lineups accompanying football ac
counts belonged to eleven first
stringers in the true sense of the
word.
Bui is modern football, sub
stitutions are so frequent that a
starting lineup means nothing.
A coach may start a second
string tailback, pull him out
after a couple minutes and then
relegate him to the bench the
rest of the game. But the fellow
still gets his name in the paper
as a starting back.
Mishap
Two years ago at California
State Teachers • College, Francis
“Punchy” Rogel played the part
of CSTC’s plucky, persistent, in'*
destructible gridiron fullback for
a full season and then went home
to North Braddock only to receive
a chipped ankle bone in a friendly
session of vacant-lot touch foot
ball.
Fully recovered now, of course:

but will be used in spot plays
as a passer and punter.
On the line the Thundering
Herd has what Coach Harry
Lawrence calls “the best tackle
and end in the country.”
At the end post, the Bison men
tor' boasts Charles Gruneberg,
IRO-pound Shamokin gridder. A
junior, Gruneberg is playing his
third year of varsity football.
A scoring tackle, Don David
son, marked up th e final six
pointer last Saturday against
Alfred U. when h e intercepted
a pass on the Bucknell 45 and
ran 55 yards for the score. Da
vidson. a 200-pound Harrisburg
product, played varsity ball his
freshman year and is touted as
“one of the fastest tackles in the
business.”
Larry B a cor.

nell tackle, will

gam e wearing a
novel piece of il vH
football gear. fHpt
While serving in
the Marines on SiML Mif
the Marshall Is- ,
lands in 1944, •
the 205 - pound
understudy to
Davidson lost his HICKS
left hand.
He drew up plans for a pro
tector for his arm, sent the pat
tern to a sporting goods company,
and th € result is that he now
holds down the right tackle post
on the Herd.
A line averaging close to 200-
pounds will represent Penn State
against the visitors. With Sam
Tamburo and Bob Hicks at the
end posts, Negley Norton and
John Finley at the tackle posi
tions, Joe Drazenovich and John
Simon or Paul Kelly at the
guards and Ray Hedderick at
center, the Nittanyites will try
to equal their defensive record
of last season.
RESERVES
Except ior two positions—tackle
and center —the home team will
have ample reserves to send into
the battle. At the ends posts, Den
nie Hoggard, Lloyd Amprim, Dan
Kline, Dalton Rumberger and
John Smidansky will be ready to
spell Tamburo and Hicks,
Bob Ross, -Don
(Duck) Murray
and Norm Erick-
son will relieve
Finley and Nor-
ton if the two
regular t a c kies
the battle, but
none of
three reserves
have the weight

In the Nittany power-packed
backfield Coach Higgins will call
on Wally Triplett, Chuck Dra
zenovich, Joe Colone and Bill
Luther for the starting assign-

set of backs ready for service on
a moment’s notice.
Only at the blocking-back po
sition is the backfield weak in

The triumph established the
Lions as a definite threat to the
‘unofficial' eastern soccer honors
and it also gave them sweet re
venge for last year’s 2-1 setback
handed them by the Cadets.
The Lions however, failed to
sweep the Army series when the
Cadet junior varsity handed the
Nittany jayvee booters a 6-1 lac
ing.
