Woman's Intuition Works Against Rip They're pointing a finger of scorn at coach Rip Engle these days—not because of anything directly concerned with his coaching—but simply because he can't pick football winners as readily as his wife. At the outset of the current season, Engle's first at Penn State, the former Brown Univer sity mentor was persuaded to undertake a weekly radio pro gram in State College. / From the start, picking the winners in the week's ten top games became a standard part of the 'script. The first week, Engle picked only four winners. The next week, he broke even. Which, considering the, unusual number of early-season upsets, wasn't bad. But the Penn State coach, over the air, made the mistake in discussing his batting average of revealing that his wife, Sun ny, had disagreed wit his choices both weeks—and, as a result, had cleaned his pockets of -change which he had posted in defense of his selections. The sponsor, learning of Mrs. Engle's prowess, immediately put in a request. "Why," he asked the radio station, "don't we use Mrs. Engle to pick the winners?" Frostburg Edges Frosh Boaters, 2-1 State's freshman soccer team was turned back by a strong Frostburg State Teachers College varsity squad, 2-1, Jast Saturday in an away tilt.

George "500 Club" Glazer's av erage was submerged 11 points to a .529 as six out his 12 prog nostications failed to produce winners. However, when squads like Notre Dame, Purdue. and Southern Cal. are the victims, no one but the victors can be blamed. Meanwhile, Mary Krasnansky's mark floundered from .666 to .641, when seven teams out of 12 groped their way through the denseness to save him further em barrassment. He now falls .053 behind assistant sports editor Art Henning, who continues to lead the seers with .694. Henning stepped down this week in favor of guest swami, Bob Kotzbauer. sports editor of the Lock Haven Express. Ray Koehler, the West Lawn wizard, upped his average .587.
