PAGE FOUR Gridders Topple Rough Temple Foe, 28-7 Prepare For Renewal Of Ancient Pitt Series All past games, including last week’s 28-7 victory over Temple, are water over the spillway this week as the Lions prepare for their annual clash with the Pitt Panther. Head Coach Joe Bedenk chased his charges back onto the prac tice field yesterday, and in the next few days the Nittanymen will continue to run through their usual round of signal drills, pass de- fense and play formations. All starters except Don Murray, who received a torn knee carti lage in the Philadelphia engage ment, should be rarin’ to go Sat urday, according to Trainer Chuck Medlar. Bill Luther and Jack Stor er are recovering from charley horses, and the team is shaking off an assortment of bumps and bruises. HEDDERICK O.K. Center Ray Hedderick, who came through the Temple game in fine style after being sidelined for three weeks, should be ready to start against Pitt, Medlar said. Winning the Pitt game can “make” the Penn State football season and knowing this the Lions settled down to work in earnest, especially on stopping running plays from the single-wing. Pitt is the only straight single-wing team the Lions meet in 1949, and tail back Lou (Bimbo) Cecconi and wingback Jimmy Joe Robinson aim to give the State ground-de fense plenty of trouble. , Breakaway runners were State’s main problems at Temple last Sat urday. The scampering halfbacks Bill Bernardo, Gene Caterina, and Gavin White, and fullback Ed Bateman almost upset the Lion apple-cart in the first quarter be fore the Nittanies blew the game wide open'in the second. STOP DUBENETZKY State stopped the aerial thrusts of touted quarterback Paul Dub enetzky cold, but second-stringer Bill Bonsall was- more effective. Temple showed the advantage in yards gained rushing, 269 to 215, but the Lions outgained the Owls through the air, 111 to 32. Sixty-five of those air ‘yards came on one toss, Owen Dough erty to Bob. Hicks, for. the Lions third TD in the first half. Dough erty took the ball on a reverse, faded and threw to Hicks in the clear on the Templars’ 25. State’s ihitial touchdown came jn the first period after Temple had marched to the Lion 17, then, fumbled. Luther and Fran Rogel’s running and Dougherty’s passing racked up three first downs in the 83-yard march, but the clincher play was Dougherty’s 37-yard gal lop on a fake kick handoff from Luther. Luther made the TD from one-yard out. LUTHER PASSES He also scored the second, from the 8-yard line, this time on a cut back through right-tackle. John Podrasky’s interception of Duben etzky’s aerial, and a pass, Luther to Hicks, set up the score. With Bonsall throwing and Ber nardo and Tom Skladany running, Temple forced its way over the State goal midway through the third period. Skladany made 25 yards on two tries through the Lion frontwall, the last 12 provid ing the score. But the Bedenkmen struck back immediately, moving 66 yards, on nine plays for the last touchdown. Rogel and Vince O’Bara carried most of the load, the plunger from North Braddock going through center for 19 yards and 14 yards on two successive plays to the one yard line. O’Bara trickled through tackle for the clincher. State played much of the second half with reserves and the game dragged to a lack-lustre finish. Temple was disappointing with Dubenetzky off form, but the game might have been much closer had Temple not fumbled twice inside the Nittany 20-yard line. As it was, the'-result was never seriously in doubt after the middle of the second quarter.

Penn State won, 28-7. Little Stars as Booters Edge Maryland for 13th After an almost disastrous trip to Maryland this past Saturday, a journey which nearly saw the Lions’ 13 game unbeaten skein go into the winds,, the Jeifrey-coached soccermen eye in earnest their toughest test yet, this Saturday’s fray against Temple. That unlucky number'l3 almost left its deep imprint on Jeffrey and his highly regarded hooters. Although Penn State, after two extra overtime periods, won 3-2, the Blue and White found themselves as late as the last quarter, at the short end of a 2-1 count. With seven minutes to go until the final gun, Harry Little con verted on a penalty kick to dead lock the tussle. OVERTIME After the final gun sounded, with the contest deadlocked, Coach Jef frey agreed to two five-minute overtime periods. The first'one ended without any point conversions, and it looked like the second overtime would also terminate without any scor ing, but with a minute to go until the final whistle, Clarence Buss, on a long pass from Ted Lieb, headed the soccer pill into the goal to earn the Nittanies a hard fought 3-2 win LITTLE Harry Little, the sharpshooting, accurate passing junior, who more than once has been the hero of a Lion soccer contest, once again provided the major share of the scoring punch as he tallied twice, once in the first quarter and then again in the third. Both his conversions came as the result of direct penalty kicks, both being clocked at 14:50 after the quarter had started. Although the Lions held a 1-0 lead at intermission, Maryland came back to score twice in the third canto to go ahead, until Lit tle tied up the fracas with his sec ond penalty boot. The summary Pos.
