Bdoters Meet Bisons;
Try For 2nd Straight
Soccer fans—and there are many hereabouts—can watch Coafdi
Bill Jeffrey’s soccer unit in action against Bucknell on the Lion
booting layout behind .the East football stands at 1 p.m. tomorrow.
The veteran Lion mentor, age 57 in years ahd 21 in spirit, will be
after his 128th victory since he began coaching at Penn State in 1926
His brilliant record with dit
tany soccer teams includes 12 un
beaten seasons, 127 wins against
a' mere' 21 setbacks, but. what’s
more amazing than that, from
1932 until 1941 his charges scam
pered through 65 games without
a single loss. _
, Last year the Lions breezed
through their nine . game slate
suffering but one setback. For
their superb play, two of the Nit
tanies, halfbacks Ralph Hoster
man and Dick Hannah were se
lected for All-American honors
while another, forward. perform
er Harry Little, received honor
able mention.
BEST THIS DECADE
Last year’s unit was tabbed-.by
Jeffrey “the best in. 10 years,” and
again ‘this year another promis
ing campaign is ahead with 12 re
turning ‘S’ winners in the fold.
But to add joy to the friendly
Scot, a duo of above' par soccer
veterans, Joe Lane, a junior, and
Ronald Colman, a sophomore, are
out to bolster a team all ready
composed of, some of the best
soccer talent in the East
Only sore spot in the Blue
and White’s- all-victorious plans
is the goal-tending assignment.
For two season’s- Jeffrey was
blessed to/have. Gene Graebndr,
an All-American, tending the nets
for him, but last year, and again
this, neophytes are being groom
ed to stop scoring threats.
GOALIES
Last season, Ed Taggert, a
sportscribe who covered soccer
for the lpcal paper, was assigned
in mid-season to fill in as goalie
. . . and did a commendable job.
This year, in search of talent, Jef
frey spent many weeks in the
summer in grooming George

Roe Brilliant
As Dodgers r
Nip Yanks, 1-0
By Joe Coppa
There was joy in Flatbush again
as Preacher Roe, slim southpaw
mainstay,. of the Dodgers spun a
bewildering maze of curves and
screwballs past Yankee bats and
treated the 70.053 fans in attend
ance to; a brilliant 1-0 shutout
at Yankee Stadium .yesterday.
Roe was brilliant in the tight
spots, 1 striking out three, issuing
no walks, and stranding seven
enemy runners on the bases.
Only two enemy runners ad
vanced as far as second and one
to third, as Roe’s stellar mound
oerformance ran the string of
Dodger pitching to eighteen con
secutive innings without issuing
a base on balls.
RASCHI
Vic Raschi, who entered the
game with a 21-10 mark and de
feated the Red Sox in the season
finale to give the Yanks the flag,
pitched good enough to win or
dinarily as he alowed the Bums
seven hits, struck out four, and
issued one 1 free pass— of the in
tentional variety.
The game’s lone tally was
scored in the second inning, when
Robinson doubled to left with
none out, daringly advanced to
third when Hermanski popped
foul to second-baseman Coleman
behind first; and scored on Gil
Hodges’ single to left. -
Again the Dodgers .threatened
in . the third when, after Robin
son struck out, Hermanski hit
a low,' sinking liner into right
center which hooked past Di-
Maggio on the wet turf and
carried to the wall for a triple.
Rackley, who started the game in
place of injured Carl Furillo, then
hit a slow roller to Coleman, Who
threw home hurriedly to nip
Hermanski at the plate on a close
playi the first ruhbarb of the
Series ensuing as a result of Um
pire- “Beans” Reardon’s decree.
Hodges ended the inning with
a fly to right.
RALLY HALTED
Yankee fans sensed a rally in
the fifth as Coleman doubled to
the left field corner with one
away,. But'Reese made a spec
tacular play on Silvera’s bid for
a hit into left by earning up with
a backhanded stab and throwing
to first to nip the runner, Cole-,
man advancing to third. The best
Raschi could do was ground to
third for the inning’s final out.
The game’s only run loomed
more: important as the - game con
tinued on into the' eighth. Then
the Yanks put on a last-ditch

• Penn State will climb back into the win column this week
against Boston College, according to pigskin prognosticator Joe Har
ris. Harris predicts that the Nittany Lion will roar over the Boston
College Eagles to the tune of a 20-7 victory this weekend-at. New
Beaver Field. . ' .
Last week, Harris had a 78.2% percentage for accuracy. While
he picked Army over the Lions, his score was a little off,-28 pdints
to be exact. Harris predicted a 14-7 win for the Cadets as against
the actual .42-7 count. Winner appears at the left. ' -
4 Teams Score
1M Shutous
by Marv Krar.snansky
■ With Sigma Nu, Alpha Tau
Omega, Phi Delta Theta and The
ta ,Xi all registering shut-out
victories, intramuralfootball got
under way under the arc lights
of Beaver practice field last night.
Theta Xi, however, was' forced
to go into overtime to defeat Sig
ma Phi Sigma, 1-0, in the final
of the four games played last
night. Although able to get as far
as the eight and six yard lines on
separate occasions during the first
half, it took a 30-yard heave from
Art Schreckengost to Hal Weaver
on the final play of the overtime
period to provide the margin of
victory.
. Under IM rules, if at the end of
regulation time there is a tie each
team is allowed three plays, the
ball changing hands at the end of
every play. The team in possession
of the ball in opposition territory
at the completion of the six plays
is declared the winner by a 1-0
score.
Dick Goodling and Bob Gow
er scored touchdowns to pace Al
pha 'Tau Omega to a 12-0 victory
over Beta Theta Pi in the opener.
Gower gave the winner a 6-0
halftime lead when he took a 10-
yard pass to climax a 60-yard punt
retiu-n, as the whistle blew to end
the Goodling took a 30-
yard pass from Hal Catherman
and raced 30 yards for the final
six-pointer.
Sigma Nu, all-around intra
mural champion-last year,, won its
inaugural, 13-0, over Pi , Lambda
Phi. John Kulp culminated a 50-
yard pass play, and a toss from
Bill Ondick to Joe Billera ac
counted for the extra point to
provide Sigma Nu with -a 7-0
bujge at the midway point. A 50-
yard Ondick-O.wen Wilkinson pass
in the last minute of play result
ed, in. the final score.
Phi Delta Theta whitewashed
Tau Phi Delta, 7-0, the lone score
coming on a 30-yard'aerial, Jack
