Booters
For 11th
After tucking away their fifth consecutive triumph of the season,
a,5-2 decision against Colgate, the Lion booters resumed drills on a
muddy soccer field yesterday in preparation for this Saturday’s home
tussle against North Carolina.
The victory over the Red Raiders ran the unbeaten skein of the
Nittany soccer forces to eleven over the past two seasons.
Joe Lane, bidding for All-America nomination, was hotter than
a firecracker, as he personally led the^Jeffrfey.-guided‘machine W a
lopsided win by scoring four goals.
LANE SCORES
The blond ex-Baltimore sensa
tion broke through Colgate’s de
fensive setup twice in the initial
canto and twice, more in the sec
ond half. Although the Lions were
held scoreless in the seoond frame
they taught the host team a trick
or two in ballhandling.
But Colgate, tabbed a definite
pre-game underdog, _ came back
battling after intermission.'
Bergman scored once for the
Raiders and then Darling counted
bn a'penalty kick which; resulted
in a much disputed decision.
Chuck Margolf, trying to pre
vent Bergman from'rushing Goalie
George Lawther, 'after he had
made a goal, save, charged into
the'Colgate player only to have a
foul called. Instead of ruling a free
kick the referee called a penalty
kick which enabled Colgate to tie
up the contest.
' FIGHTING SPIRIT
Apparently that incident install
ed an extra charge of fighting
spirit.ipto.the Jeffreymen, as Lane
again'pulled the Colgate goalie out
of; position to enable the Lions to
take the dead which they never
relinquished.
. . Although Harry Little and Clar
ence. Buss did not break into the
scoring; column their play setup
and smart‘offensive maneuvering
were a deciding factor in the Lions’
fifth consecutive triumph.
NORTH CAROLINA
Ted Lieb.the former Ardmore
standout, :scored the Lions’, fourth
goal of trie-contest and then. Lane,
m the final period, tallied again to
clinch the. contest,

Without Loss
Diminutive Harry Little
A David Among Goliaths
His name may be Little, yet he’s a real Riant killer in spirit
and action as far as. the soccer field is concerned.
This diminutive hooter who reaches but fifty-seven inches off
the turf is a. real David among the Goliaths who trot onto the
field to participate in soccer tussles.
Harry Russell Little is his name in its entirety and at pre
sent this Dover, Pa., lad is the hottest thing in Penn State boot
ing circles. He holds the honor of scoring more goals than any
other member of the. current Lion varsity.
On campus in 194$ while a freshman, Lillie# a center for
ward Ihen. scored four limes while the Lions humbled Cornell,
8-0. After a tie with Navy and a loss to Army, Harry traded
shinguards and clealed soccer bools for one one of Uncle Sam s
sailor suits. ... , . ,
After a two year hitch with the boys-in-blue he came back
to the Nitlany Valley last year to lead the Lions to one of their
most successful seasons. ... . .
Last year’s unit, which lost but'one outing m nine starts, was
tabbed by Coach Bill Jeffrey”
as the best team in the last ten
year’s.” At the conclusion of the
season, although only a soph- ,
omore, Little reveived honor
able mention on the All-Ameri
can” soccer eleven. ; .
JEFFREY COMMENTS
: As far as • his chances for a
first team All-American berth
this year ' goes, Jeffrey ' com
ments,” Harry is a good little
player. I think he has as good
a chance as.anyone of making
it, of course, we don’t know
how Temple’s inside men are.”.
The . diminutive Little,
weighing but '134 pounds, be
gan his soccer experience in
high school when he teamed
up with Red Emig, one of
present' "fullbacks, to lea'd
Dover to the York. County
Championship in 1945.
Although playing such top
nolchers as Manchester, North
York, and Lancaster, the. Lilt]
'out on the long end of the count. . . . j
. Jncidentally, while playing against Lancaster, he was .opposed
by the ctirrent halfback sensation of the Nittanies, Will Kraybill.
Guarding the nets for Lancaster, during his senior year was Jim
Doman; the Blue and White’s starting goalie on the same 45 team
on which Kraybill, Little and Emig played. „
Talking, about last year's Navy defeat, a 4-0 affaw. Little
comments, "We were possibly isie better team on the field but
we just, had all the bad breaks. We lacked the scoring punch
last year but we., sure have it this; year. This the best
team I've ever" played on, "Little continues,. . There s a good
chance we'll go undefeated." :
SOCCER TAKES SPOTLIGHT
Although soccer takes the-,spotlight, as far as a_ his interests
so a newly' aquired automobile which, he, Red Emig, and Penn
State’s All-American, Dick Hannah - bought recently is his sec-

State Harriers Lose;
Prep for Manhattan
The Penn State cross-country team is looking forward to a two
weeks’ rest following its loss to Michigan State Saturday, 22 to. 35,
on the victors’ course.
Coach Chick Werner’s Nittany harriers will be preparing, how
ever, for their final dual meet of the season against Manhattan Col
lege at New York on November 12.
The hero of the Michigan State meet was the Spartans’ ace junior,
Warren Druetzler. Druetzler led
the runners across the line in 20
minutes and 24 seconds. The first
Penn State men to finish were Don
Ashenfelter and A 1 Porto, who
tied for third.
GOOD CONDITIONS
The race, run under good_ condi
tions, was fairly close, with the
first 12 men finishing within one
minute of Druetzler’s winning
time. A new record was set for the
course Michigan State has been
using this year, but the time fell
30 seconds short of the record set
in thfe NCAA meet at East Lansing
last year.
It was the first, loss of the season
for Coach Chick Werner’s harriers,
who had previously triumphed
over NYU and Cornell in easy
fashion. But the Lions lost no pres
tige in bowing to the Spartan run
ners for they were in contention
throughout and gave a good ac
count of themselves.
STEADY PERFORMANCE
, For the Lions, Don Ashenfelter
gave his usual steady performance,
and both A 1 Porto and Jack St.
Clair, who tied for seventh, turned
in their best showings of the sea
son. The Lions, however, had sev
eral disappointments, as Bob Par
sons and Bob Freebairn, finishing
10th and 12th respectively, failed
to perform as expected after their
performances against NYU and
Cornell,
The Michigan State victory was
the second of the year for the na
tional champs. They had taken the
measure of Purdue two weeks be
fore.
The Lions’ fine showing against
the powerful Midwesterners marks
them as one of the potential con
tenders for the IC4A champion
ship meet in November, which
was won by the Spartans last year.
The summary: 1. Drdutzler, MS,
20:24; 2. Mack, MS, 20:50; Porto
and Don Ashenfelter, PS, 21:05;
