I';LINESIJI - 1 Y, zu, luau Lions Spring Impressive Showing Against Cornell Gridders Sharp Defensive Work Slows Vaunted Big Red Attack Special to the Daily. Collegian ITHACA, Sept. 19—An unheralded Penn State grid team met mighty Cornell in an 'important pre-season scrimmage on Schoellkopf Field this afternoon in a game which saw the Nittany Lions making a surprisingly strong showing. Although no score was avail able after six full periods of play, the Nittany Lions more than held their own against a grid powerhouse which is seeking its third straight Ivy League title.

Big Red's ripping ground offensive usually paced by such high-calibre runners as Jeff Fleischmann, Hal Seiden berg, Frank Miller, and Bill Whe lan. A Good Day's Work Following the secret scrimmage; Coach Rip Engle pointed the finger of praise at the spirited efforts of his lads and expressed a keen satisfaction with the day's performance. Engle's only source of disap pointment stemmed from State's failure to take full advantage of all of its offensive opportunities. Defensive stickouts in Penn State's grove of defensive trees were tackles Dick Cripps, Stew Scheetz, Pat McPoland, an d Chuck Wilson; guards Don "Por ky" Millhouse, and line-backers John Podrasky, Joe Schumock, and Len Shephard. Offensively, quarterback s Vince O'Bara and Dick Koerber, who returned to the lineup after a two week layoff due to an in jured knee, flashed impressively with their steady ball -handling and accurate passing. Lanky Art Betts continues to be the favor ite target •of the backfield. Sophomore fullback Ted Shat tuck turned in his best offensive performance of Fall practice ses sions as together with tiny Earle Mundell and Bob Pollard the trio churned up a goodly amount of Cornellian sod.

Coach Nick Thiel has expressed hopes of seeing a large turnout for Fall practice. He emphasized that experience is not a requisite for a trial.

Freshman Footballers Prepare For Opening Date With Orange With the confusion of Orienta tion Week—which played havoc with practice sessions—a thing of the past, the Nittany Lion fresh man football squad settled down to a week of hard work prepar -1 ing for the opener with the Syra cuse frosh, Oct. 13. Coach Earl Bruce, working his charges on the fundamentals of the winged-T, h a s expressed 'pleasure at the way they have been adapting themselves to the new system. The all-important position of quarterback, which can make or break a winged-T team, does not appear to be giving Bruce too much grief with three sterling candidates trying for the position. Tom Keane, Frank Minana, and Bob Szajna (pronounced shiner) have had winged-T experience in high school. But it is on the line that . Bruce is expecting to encounter more than his share of worries. "While it appears that we're E=Ml3 IM==l scarce on centers and a little short on tackles, we're still feel ing out the men as to their • po sitions," he said. The backs, aside from the x backs, or wing -backs, while "big enough, are small but fast," he added. Bruce is sending the frosh through only one series of plays, but is pleased at the way they are starting to pick up the of fense. He expects to run them through an intersquad scrimmage later this week. STARLITE DRIVE-IN On Bellefonte Road Shows at 7:45 and 10 P. M.
