SATURDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1948 Lions Invade Camp (Continued from page one) will field a powerful team in this afternoon's encounter. Slated to give the Nittany team trouble this afternoon are Alan Egler and Ray Scott. Egler, the offensive ace, ran 75 and 95 yards for touchdowns against Rutgers, and also is on the receiving end of passes from Ray Scott, the sophomore passer. Coach Paul Bixler uses the two-team system, in which Cen ter Warren Davis is just about Between The Lions By Tom Morgan Tough Game, Big Game Lion Skipper Bob Higgins, in traditional coaching fashion, said before leaving for Hamilton, N. Y.: "Colgate is in a peculiarly good position to knock us off. It would help them tremendously." Nothing is beyond the bounds of possibility, and to quote Witty Wilbert, our ate com menter and admiring fraternity brother: "We are between the tough game and the big game. Hu man frailties and the fickle fluctuations of a bouncing foot ball are always to be reckoned with." Gym Gab Yesterday we cornered Gene Wettstone, Nittany gym coach who this summer tutored United States gymnasts in the London Olympics. Between phys ed. eases, he observed: "America is not as far be hind other countries in gym nastics as its seventh place in the Olympics would indicate. Less specialization and more emphasis on the all-around event would close the gap." Referring to the American showing this summer, Wettstone. said, "The boys were not getting the breaks in scoring, particularly on the side horse and calisthenics, but they controlled themselves well and gave a wonderful dis play of sportsmanship. "Our weakness in the rings probably cost us fourth or fifth place but the team showed much improvement over the pas.: Olympics when we placed tenth." On the Olympic gym squad were three Penn Staters: Lou Bordo '43, Ray Sorensen '4B and Bill Bonsall, present head cheer leader and gymnastics captain. HOLIDAY Ass Adventure in THE DAILY COLLEGIAN.

A Lion forward wall of Sam Tamburo, Don Murray, John Simon, Chuck Beat t y, Paul Kelly and Bob Hicks will attempt to turn back this fast and shifty opposition while a backfield of Triplett, Chuck Drazenovich, Joe Colone and Bill Luther will carry the ball in the Nittany offense. Penn State's passing and plunging combination of Elwood Petchel and Fran Rogel is slated to do the relief work in the back field, with Larry Joe and soph omores Vince O'Bara, Owen Dougherty and Tony Orsini also prepared to tote the mail. Replacements on the line in clude Dennie Hoggard and John Smidansky at ends, Bob Ross and Tom Smith at tackles, Fred Fel baum and Joe Drazenovich at guards, and Ray Hedderick at center. Harriers Meet Cornell Today Spearheaded by Captain Hor ace Ashenfelter, 12 Lion harriers will carry the hopes of a heavily favored Penn State cross coun try-team against the Big Red of Cornell at the latter's home course today. The dual meet, the Lions' third of the year, will be run over a course similar to the crosscoun try course here at the College. Coaches Werner and Gordon expect the Nittany runners to carry home a perfect-score vic tory over the Ithacans. Mitch Williams, Negro star who has been ailing for the past three weeks with a bad knee, will start for the Blue and White today for the first time this year. His return is expected to bol ster what the Lion mentors con sider one of the finest harrier squads in the history of the Col lege. On the basis of their times last week and their smashing 19-36 win over NYU three weeks ago, the Lion hill-and-dale team should win easily over the Ith acans, who have won two and dropped the same number of dual meets this year. The times recorded by the Nit tany cross countrymen in losing to Michigan State last Saturday were good enough to win 9 meets out of 10. They were unfortunate in meeting a collection of five of the greatest distance runners in the nation gathered together un der the Spartan banner. ,ANtaii CR \ 1 :11'‘ I ES •i 1M Swimming Behind, 20-16, going into the final relay event, Phi Epsilon Pi rallied to pull through to a 21-20 victory over Phi Kappa Sigma at Glennland pool yester day.

Life began at 20 for the soccer Lions as diminutive Harry Little broke through Colgate's defense to score his second goal of the after noon after 20 minutes had elapsed of the second period and his flank man, Hal Hackman, scored his goal after 20 minutes had gone in the third canto. Oddly enough Col gate scored its second tally after 20 minutes in the last period. Harry Little once again stole into the limelight not because he tallied two goals in the first half but because his alert play mid field and his tricky passing en abled the Blue and White to keep the offensive throughout the game. By tallying twice the 138- pounder boosted his goal-scored column to four. PEP TALK The Jeffreymen left the field at Halftime with a slim 2-1 lead after missing ten opportunities at the Colgate goal.

Coach Jeffrey was well pleased with the performance of his pro teges. The veteran mentor corn mented: "We're playing better ball now. Especially in the second half. Better ball-playing really brings results as you can see." DEFENSE STRONG Colgate, which sported a 3-1 won -and- lost record to-date, played heads-up ball but the Lions defensive play, coupled with their strong offense, was too much to overcome, Only three shots were fired at Ed Taggart, Lion goalie.
