Lions Hold
Series Edge
Over Syracuse Elevens
Supported by a cast that includes star quarterback Bernie
Custis and a pair of hard-running sophomores in Ed Dobrow
olski and John Colceri, Floyd "Ben" Schwartzwalder, Syra
cuse football coach, will try to
stem: the tide which has carried
the Nittany Lions to a 12-10 lead
in the 28-year series. Five games
have ended in ties
Unbeaten by the Orange since
1937, the Lions will be trying to
extend their string to twelve. Two
games during the skein ended
deadlocks.
Orange Get Early Lead
State's domination of the series
in recent years has offset Syra
cuse's early lead. The first game
was played in 1922, but it took
the Lions five years before they
could edge into the win column.
Although State has registered
rather convincing victories over
the past three years, the boys
from Piety Hill appear to have
one of their strongest teams in
recent years, and are in a posi
tion to reverse the scheme.
Custis, a senior, was a thorn
'in the side of the Lions the past
two years despite the overwhelm
ing nature of the Blue and White
victories. Although Syracuse ab
sorbed a 34-14 trouncing in 1948,
the Philadelphia Negro com
pleted 12 of 31 passes on a 'wet
field for 187 yards and two
touchdowns. Last year the Lions
dealt Schwartzwalder's crew a
33-21 drubbing, but Custis con
nected on 12 of 17 tries for 168
yards and one touchdown.
Although Custis has been
smothered effectively to date by
Syracuse's three previous oppo
nents, any improvement in his
record against Penn State might
spell disaster for Rip Engle's
charges.
Under Lights
Originally scheduled for Sat
urday afternoon, the game will
be played at night under the
lights of Archbold Stadium. If
previous night performances car
ry any weight, the Lions might
well be called night owls. The
Lions are undefeated in night
competition, two .of their four
victories coming over this same
Syracuse team. State's 1948 wine,
was registered under the arcs, as
was its 9-0 1946 conquest.
The Lions downed New York
University, 42-0, in their first
nocturnal outing in the Polo
Grounds in 1941, and defeated
Washington State, 27-6, at Her
shey in 1947.

Joe Harris Rates State
Two Touchdown Favorite
Joe Harris, nationallY-known
sports forecaster, is one of a
rapidly-growing crowd of experts
who is eyeing Penn State's grid
machine with more respect these
days.
In his predictions for Saturday's
pigskin parade Harris has the Nit
tany Lions a startling two touch
down favorite over a supposedly
strong Syracuse eleven.
Last week Harris hit for an
86.6 percent correct total with 123
right' calls against 19 wrong ones.
This count did not include six
ties.

forded only slight opportunity to
look over the younger and more
inexperienced personnel.
Coach Bill Jeffrey will have to

Meet Orange
Brucemen Seek First Win
In Tomorrow's Encounter
Penh State's freshman football
team will leave for Syracuse to
night for tbinorrow afternoon's
game with the Orange frosh.
Coach Bruce has had his charg
es working hard all week on their
defensive tactics in preparation
for Syracuse's strong offensive
attack. "Syracuse has a very good
team," said Bruce.
The Daily Orange, Syracuse's
student paper, describes this
year's squad as "a couple of track
men behind a forward wall aver
aging over 200-pounds."
Bruce will probably start the
same team that opened against
Wyoming Seminary last Satur
day. Don Malinak and Jimmy
Russell will start at ends, Ron
Bressen and either Tom McCurdy
or, Joe Pascarella at the tackles,
Amen Hassen and Pete Schoder
bek at guards, and Dave Yeak at
center.
The backfield will line up with
Bob Szajna at quarterback, Don
Eyer or Nick Firda at wingback,
speedster Jimmy Finn at left half
and probably Pete Shopa at full
back.
Shopa hurt his ankle in the
Wyothing game and Bruce isn't
sure that he will be able to play
at all. Ken Newman and Russell
were injured in Tuesday night's
intra-squad scrimmage. Russell is
expected to be in the starting
lineup tomorrow.
