TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 1948 Nillany Eleven Eyes Panthers Continued from page four Only Larrry Joe, who injured a rib in last week's Penn game, and Negley Norton, who has a shoul der injury, failed to appear in the deluge. On the opening kickoff Joe Drazenovich recovered Chet Or seck's fumble and four plays later Colone plunged over for the first marker. Sturges kick, the first of five to hit their mark, made the score 7-0 after a minute and 20 seconds of the first period. Tom Skladany's quick kicking kept the Lions at bay for the re mainder of the period, but two first downs in the second period set the ball on the one and Rogel smacked over in 4:40. Just eleven plays later the Lions were again on the Temple one via Colone's 66-yard race, and this time Chuckran dived over for the tally. Chuckran's pass to Cooney in the third period made the score 26-0, and then the sophomore team went in to bang out three more markers against the luckless Temple elev en. This game marked the first time in seven battles that the Owls have been held scoreless, and also marked the 17th straight game for the Lions without a de feat. Two more battles, Pittsburgh and Washington State, stand be tween Penn State and the second consecutive year unmarked by defeat. More than five teams, 69 play ers, were used in the 47-0 rout by both teams.

STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA The Nittany Realm One of the most brilliant stars among the galaxy of gems in the 1948 Penn State football orbit is the popular senior end, Sam Tamburo. Playing his greatest season of football for Coach Bob Higgins' Lions, .the hard-charging, four-year veteran is rated one of State's top prospects for all-America honors. The Blue and White can consider itself lucky to have snared the six-foot, two-inch, 185-pound lineman, for Tamburo was born and played high school football in New Kensington, barely 18 miles from the football-conscious Pittsburgh area. Where asked the controversial question of the team's opinion to a bowl bid, the phys. ed. major replied, "Don't forget that we still have two games to win." Contradictory to the story that recently appeared in a Pitts burgh newspaper, Tamburo be lieves that most of the squad is in favor of another Taunt to the Cotton Bowl in Dallas. scene of last year's 13-13 tie with South ern Methodist. In an6wer to the query of how he rated this year's grid aggre gation in comparison with the undefeated 1947 edition, Tamburo said, "We had a high-scoring team last year. but, including the teams had exceptional individual and team play, although the present Lion outfit has the edge in spirit." He attributes this edge to the fact that more of the players are of the same age. One of the greatest athletes in New Kensington sport annals, Sam played three years of high school football, captaining the squad in his senior year. But his main claim to fame was earned on the basketball court where he was an all-WPIAL guard for two years and in his senior year gained honorable mention on the all-state team. Sam's peeves are slanted toward the distaff side where he con fessed a dislike for artificiality in women. A favorite meal would include breaded veal garnished with mashed potatoes a la gravy and lots of greens. During the summer he keeps in condition via camp counseling and teaching swimming at the Salisbury health cen ter, near Pittsburgh. The clean-cut. 22-year-old upperclassman intends playing pro football for a few years after leaving college and then turning to the physical education field. Tamburo revealed that he has received overtures from the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dons, pro football teams, an indica tion that the career of "Big Sam" is being eyed greedily. Upon his departure from State he will also be placed on the college football draft list. Sam isn't the only athletically inclined individual in the Tam buro household. He's anxious to talk of the success of his two broth ers, both of whom have outstanding football reputations. Harry, the elder, played two years at VPI, at end, and Dick, a senior in high school, was honored as all-state center last year. Com petition for his services is now being waged by both Pitt and State. Sam's parents are avid followers of their son's career and are present at every State hoTe game. Tamburo considers the 1945 and '46 Navy grid battles as the two outstanding games of his career. Knitting his brow over the questions as to who he thought was the greatest back he has played against, he finally split the honor between little George Guerre, of Michigan State, and Hunchy Hoernschmeyer, of Navy. Without a moment's hesitation the Phi Kappa Sigma fraternity man named Tackle John Nolan, a teammate in 1945, '46, and '47 now playing with the Boston Yanks, as his num ber-one lineman. Although he would be the last one to admit it, Sam is in his own right a BMOC. Outside of an excellent all-College average he names among other activities, vice-president of Parma Nu, I.F.C. repre sentative and chaplain usher. When Sam was congratulated on his fine showing against Tem ple Saturday, his final words were: "Don't forget that it takes eleven men to field a football team." Don Ashenfelter Wins First • Competitive Race in Phill Don Ashenfelter, younger brother of Lion cross-country captain Horace, was an easy victor in his first competitive race, as he crossed the finish line first in the Penn Athletic Club handicap cross-country run at Philadelphia Sunday. The sophomore harrier, ineligible to compete in varsity compe tition this year because he is a transfer student, sped over the five- mile course in 27:56. Ashenfelter elected to take the larger novice trophy in place of the winer's trophy at the conclu sion of the meet. He was running under the auspices of Shanahan Catholic Club. Alumnus Curt Stone, who raced the 5000 meters for the United States in the London Olympics last summer, captured the best time prize, at the meet. Stone, also running for the Shanahan CC, circled the course in 25:04. PRINTING Multilithing Addressograph Service COMMERCIAL PRINTING Glennland Bldg. Phone 6662 By Ray Koehler Pennsylvania game.
