Publicity
, Fran “Punchy” Rogel, the
smashing football fullback, re
ceived some unheralded i publicity
in State College’s Halloween
parade Monday night. -
A toddling two-year old. young
ster, dressed smartly in a light
blue sweatshirt with the magic
’33 sewed on, gave ' a wonderful
imitation of the Rogel swagger as
he paraded down the streets.
The lad, to make things com
plete, wore a football helmet, and
had a sign on his back—" The Fu
ture Rogel.”
Yes, the lad won a prize in. his
division.
Notes cm Custis
Bernie Custis, Syracuse’s quar
terback, gave , a top demonstration
in a losing cause Saturday in this
reporter’s opinion. In fact, Cus
tis outshone all other top-flight
“T-generals” that have tested the
Lions this year in all-around play.
That’s taking in a lot of ball
players—Villanova's Steve Roma
nik, Army’s talented Arnie Galif
fa, Eddie iSongin of Boston Col
lege and Fran Nagle of Nebraska.
Custis was superb in his ball
handling. . .something that is dif
ficult to master. And this is only
the' Orange Ace’s first year in the
“T” slot behind the center, Custis
passes differently from Galiffa
most of the time. While Galiffa
fires the pigskin With the speed of
a bullet, Custis cooly tosses a
“powderpuff pass” into his re
ceiver’s arms. ' •. .i-
Two Goals
Penh State’s soccer victory over
Colgate Saturday, a 5-2 triumph,
came in for a lot of cblrnmeht on
the Nittany campus Sunday and
Monday. It seems that many
people were surprised to see that
tl>e Red Raiders pushed two goals
past. the Lion's defensemen. We
might mention, however, that one
of those goals was tallied via a
penalty kick—a .free _ boot from
twelve yards out that is almost a
certain point.
North Carolina,
Nittany Booters
Play Tomorrow
It will be student against coach
on the Beaver Field,soccer layout
tomorrow when Coach Bill Jef
frey sends his warriors against
Coach Marvin Allen, of North
Carolina. , '
- Jeffrey, at the helm of the Nit
tahy soccer forces for 23 years,
tutored Allen, who was on the
Benn State campus the past three
summers in quest of his master’s
degree. ,
The contest, slated to get under
way at 11 p.m. will be the first
battle between North Carolina
and the Nittany Lions. The outing
is being billed as one of the big
gest- intersections! frays of the
season.
RECORD IMPRESSIVE
The North Carolina hooters,
who flew to State College, sport a
high-flying 4-1 record to date.
Succumbing to the Tarheel at
tack were North Carolina State,
3-1; Richmond Institute, 9-0; Vir
ginia, 1-0 and Washington and
Lee, 4-1, while Navy tipped the
Southerners, 3-0.
Jeffrey, who last Spring con
ducted a soccer clinic in Chapel
Hill, N.C., saw North Carolina
drop a 1-0 decision to North Caro
lina State. '
“I saw them play and they
looked pretty good,” he com
ments,”, of course this fall they
beat N.C. State, so they must be
improving.”
Spence Boyer, top reliefman,
who injured his shoulder last
week, is back in uniform ready for
duty to spell anyone in the for
ward line which includes Clarence
Buss, Harry Little, Joe Lane, Ron
Coleman and Ted Lieb.
In the secdndary line, Jeffrey
will start his All-America duet of
Dick Hannah and Ralph Hoster
man along with Will J Kraybill.
Chuck Margolf and Bill Yerkes,
will do the fullback duty with
George Lawther and Ron Coder
sharing the post in the goal..
Walthall's Air Tactics
Threat To Lion Eleven
Joe Bedenk’s Nittany Lions roared out of State College, des
tination Morgantown, W. Va., this morning intent on licking three
jinxes in their game against the Mountaineers tomorrow.
First off, the -Lions have never won a game in Morgantown;
int in three games there. Second,
ibove the .500 season percentage
in fact they’ve never scored a poi
State will be looking to climb a
mark, an accomplishment that
has eluded the Blue and White
like a greased pig all season.
If they’re to succeed in those
two objectives, the Lions will
have to overcome jinx number
ace passer, this
time Jimmy Walthall.
Walthall, who was rated num
ber four passer in the nation
last season, has been in the Lions’
hair before. He staged a one-man
air show at Beaver Field in 1944
as a freshman, a performance
that earned West Virginia a
thrilling, 28-27, victory.
LIONS READY
If the Nittanies were ever
ready for walthall, however,
they’re ready for him now after
six weeks of instruction in the
art of stopping passers, taught
by such eminent instructors as
Villanova’s Gene Romanik, Syra
cuse’s Bernie .Custis, Army’s
Galiffa,' etc.
According to final word from
the respective training camp, the
Lions will be physically strong
and the Mountaineers slashed by
injuries for this sixteenth meet
ing of the two schools. Things
brightened around Mount Nit
tany with word that .fullback
Fran Rogel, the heart of the Lion
offense, will be rpady for start
ing dutjt. '
BEATTY
Chuck Beatty, who watched, in
civvies while his mates pounded
Syracuse, is available for at
least limited service, and the
same goes for John Smidansky
an 4 Paul Kelly who suffered
minor'injuries against the orange.
Center Ray Hedderick , and re
serves Ed Hoover arid Con
Brown are the only men defin
itely “out” according to latest re
port.
West Virginia’s running game
will be seriously hampered by
the loss of two, halfbacks, Bob
by Arnett and John Murphy, the
chief ground threats. Arnett was
injured in the game against Vir
ginia last week; Murphy has

been riding the bench since the
Pitt game several weeks ago.
That gives Coach Dud BeGroot
plenty to worry about in his of
fensive department. The Moun
taineers’ ground attack has been
nothing to brag about all season.
Although West Virginia has out
scored its seven opponents to
date, 170 to 156, net yardage for
the important left halfbacks is
only 720, or 3,9 per carry. Murphy
and Arnett have 381 of those
yards between them.
Available for West Virginia
Saturday, however, will be about
ten players who opposed the
Lions at State College last Fall.
One of the foremost is Pete
Zinaich, captain and fullback. A
few good linemen, especially cen
ter Dave Stephenson and tackle
Fred Stuvek, give the Mountain
eers power up front.
West Virginia’s main claim to
fame will probably have to be
Walthall. It all adds up to more
passing trouble for the Nittany
Lions.
