"Colgate No Breather"
Higgins Gets Team In Shape
For Saturday's Grid Skirmish
How to prepare a .team for a game two days away when it will
mentally be playing the following Saturday’s game will be Coach
Bob Higgins’ problem as he rounds the Penn State grid aggregation
into condition for Saturday’s fray with Colgate.
Sandwiched between two major gridiron battles, Michigan State
and Pennsylvania, the Colgate game was regarded as a “breather”
by the Lion coaching staff until
Coach Earle Edwards, who scout
ed the Raiders .reported that the
New York State team will pro
vide plenty of opposition for the
undefeated Lions.
“This is the last home game for
Colgate and also Homecoming,”
warned the Nittany coach. They’ll
put everything they have into
the game, and they’ll really be
“up” for the battle.”
HOLY CROSS UPSET
Last Saturday the Red Raiders
upset a highly favored Holy Cross
squad 14-13. The Colgate squad
rolled up 116 yards with five
passes and gained 131 yards on
the ground against the Crusaders.
Three times the Colgate line re
pulsed the Holy Cross team in
goal line stands, the last, a four
down attempt from the Colgate
four yard line.
“Ray Scott, a sophomore, is an
excellent passer in the Colgate
“T” formatio nattack, ’’commented
Coach Edwards. “He has replaced
McLaughlin, the Colgate quarter
back of last year’s squad, and is
the spark of the offensive team.”
Following the “new look” in
football teams, Coach Paul Bix

In New Jersey lhere's a group of
fishing cronies that never miss an
opening day of trout season, come
hell or high water.
This group in
cludes one John
Abell, who claims
to be able to tell
if the fish are bit
ing by the feel of
his bones. Now, on
this particular op
ening day of trout
season, the
wa* up, the baro
meler was falling, there was a
snow flurry, three inches of
snow was on the ground, and the
temperature was below freezing.
only crazy men would go
looking for rainbow trout on a
day like this.
Each man admitted that he was
c razy, and this little group brav
ed the weather in their hunting
clothes to take advantage of
Johns feeling. In less than three
hours, each had his limit, some
having thrown fish back in or
der to catch larger ones . ,on
a day like this! John Abell of
fered this explanation: “The fish
are there, and we’re here; we
put a nice live worm on a hook,
the fish says 0.K., I’ll bite, and
• • • sure enough, we catch fish!”

COLGATE'S RECORD
Colgate’s record of two wins
against three defeats is a poor
indicator of the relative power
of the team. In score compari
son, the Raiders outrank the
Lions, having topped Holy Cross
14-13 while Holy Cross smashed
Syracuse 33-7, a team that al
lowed Penn State a 20 point mar
gin of victory.
After trouncing Buffalo 25-0,
the Bixler team ran into trouble
and dropped a 19-34 battle to
Rutgers, a 13-14 decision to an
inferior Boston College team, and
a 16-41 rout to Dartmouth.
“Six pass interceptions made
the difference in the Dartmouth
game,” remarked Coach Edwards.
“Both teams were evenly match
ed, but the interceptions took the
life out of Colgate.”
