Lieven Drills
• eargetown
Working hard at solving the offensive and defensive maneuvers of Georgetown since
Friday, Penn State's football team went through a long drill on the Beaver Field prac
tice area yesterday afternoon in preparation for Saturday's opener with the Hoyas.
Using the jayvees as "foreign"
offensive and defensive teams,
Coach Rip Engle has been work
ing his attack and defense pla
toons against the "opposition" in
an effort to get the boys familiar
with what they will encounter
against the Hoyas.
While Engle acknowledges that
the squad is "getting along," he
was quick to point out that
"they're still making a lot of lit
tle mistakes and that's what
hurts you most in a game.
"But the boys are really `try
ing," he added, "and they're just
as nice a bunch of boys as you
will ever find anywhere."
Engle narrowed down the de
ficiencies of the squad to three:
1. They are having a hard time
stopping outside plays.
2. They are slow in getting
started.
3. They are slow in adjusting
to what the other team is. doin;:.
"At the start they'll look like
the worst ball club in the world.
but when they get adjusted to
what the other team is doing,
they'll really get rolling;" the
gray-haired mentor predicted. He
iokingly suggested taking the
ream out in back of the stands
Saturday afternoon and running
them for half an hour prior to
the start of the game.
Slogan is ;Work'
"Lots and lots of work" is En
gle's answer to the problem. Work
has been the slogan of the Nittany
camp since the day of arrival,
Aug. 16. Since then the Lions
have engaged in five scrimmage
games, as well as countless intra
squad mock battles.
A "football mill" was the best
way to describe the Beaver Field
practice area Saturday afternoon
when Engle and his assistants
had more than 100 varsity, jay
vee and freshmen ballplayers ca
vorting about the greens.
"The system" was going at full
blast, with the jayvees running
the Georgetown attack against
the Lion defensive unit on the
upper field, while the freshmen
gave the offensive unit a rough
time on the lower field.
• Who's at Fullback?
While Engle has a good idea
of his starting units, he will not
name the starting teams until
Friday. One of the toughest de
cisions he will have to make will
be to choose a starting fullback.
Sophomore Ted Shattuck, junior
Jim Pollard, and senior Herb
Kurtz have been waging a ding
dong battle for two weeks with

over the Washington Senators
The Yanks backed up Allie
Reynolds and Whitey Ford with
timely hitting . in both contests to
triumph by scores of 8 to 3 and 7
to 4. For Ford it was the rookie's
ninth straight win without a loss.
Meanwhile, the Boston Red Sox
kept their faint hopes flickering
with 8 to 0 and 3 to 0 wins over
th e hapless Philadelphia Ath
letics.
The Yank wins hiked their
lead to three and one-half games
in front of the Detroit Tigers and
four games ahead of the Bosox
with only six contests left.
Over in the National League,
Eddie Sawyer's Phils snapped out
of their batting slump to down
the Boston Braves 12 to 4 in the

the Whiz Kids lost the finale. 5

SOCCER COACH Bill Jeffrey, right, looks proudly over two
veteran hoofers whom he hopes will bring success to his twenty
fifth year of coaching. Harry Little, center, 1949 All-American
choice and Gus Bigoft, left, 32-year-old former All-American, are
counted on by Jeffrey to spark the Lions' offense in '5O.
Ten Games Slated For
State's Rugged Bootees
The 1950 edition of the Penn
State soccer team is not a sissy
outfit and just to prove it, they've
booked ten games for the coming
season. Not satisfied ,with the
usual one game a week for eight
weeks, two extra weekday games
have been added.
Following the annual trip to
Annapolis, Md., where the con
sistently tough Middie squad will
be engaged on Oct. 21, coach Bill
Jeffrey will take his boys to
Gettysburg on the 24th. Early in
to 3, as Jim Konstanty lost in re
lief.
Pee Wee Reese's home run gave
the Dodgers a 3-2 victory in the
day game of a day-night double
bill with New York. Preacher
Roe won over Sheldon Jones.
The Yanks face the Senators
in another doubleheader today
and the Bosox face the A's in a
night game. Detroit plays St.
Louis in a twinbill. In the Na
tional League the Phiis face Bos
ton in a day game and Brooklyn
opposes the Giants in two Llama.
1M Swimming Deadline
The deadline for entering
teams in the intramural swim
ming program is 5 p.m. today. The
meets are to be held in Glennland
pool between the hours . of 5 and
6 p.m. Each team must enter a
minimum of five men. Entrance
fee for a team is one dollar.

November, the Lions will make a
trip to North Carolina where they
will play the Tarheels on the 4th.
To be certain that the dribblers
will not become bored with the
trek, they will stop off on the 6th
and play West Chester State
Teachers.
Except for these two slight
irregularities, the schedule is very
much the same as in previous
years. Western Maryland is the
only opponent that was not on
the 1949 Nittany list.

men, trouble last year were

Inconsistency . Barrier
To Harrier Success
Inconsistency -7 the trademark of the eight senior letter
men returning to action for Coach Chick Werner's cross
country squad may soon turn what promises to be the
greatest season in the annals of the harrier sport here into a
nightmare.
On paper the Nittany hill-and
dale boys will be the outstanding
favorites in every dual meet they
run this year and pre-season
choices for the IC4-A and NCAA
titles.
, Don and Bill Ashenfelter, Bob
Parsons, Bob Freebairn, Al Porto,
Jack St. Clair, Bill Gordon, and
John McCall are all veterans of
a highly succesful campaign last
year. The 1949 season was marked
by victories over Cornell, N.Y.U.,
and Manhattan in dual compe
tition, a fourth place finish in the
NCAA's' and a fifth in the IC4-A
meet. Michigan State, N'C A A
titlists, dealt the Lions their only
dual meet defeat.
Unpredictable
Coach Werner's octet of ex
perienced runners have at times
:ison to great heights in individ
ual performances. Any one of the
eight is capable of finishing first
or well up front in competition,
and has done so on occasion, only
to finish well out of contention
other times.
Just as teams on the Army or
Notre Dame football schedule
point to these gridiron kings as
squads to beat, so, too, will State's
cross country •opponts lie in
wait for a let-do w n in the
Werner thinclads. Facing the
marathoners in dual meets this
season will be the nation's out
