Lion Times Not Impressive As
State Trio Ties For First
Doing was was expected of them as far 43 trimming a
weak Cornell cross country team by the perfct, score of 15
to 50, Coach Chick Werner's thinclads did not add too many
jewels to their crown with their
performance Saturday. •
The performance turned.- in
against the Big Red was not in
dicative of the capabilities-of the
team, and the times recorded, in
the victory were not too impres
sive, especially when considering
the Lion's opponents fcir this
week-end, the present leaders in
the cross country field. the Spar
tans of Michigan State.'
Spartans. Lead Way
Michigan State swept all the
laurels in the hill-and-dale sport
in 1948 by capturing the NAAU
IC4-A, and NCAA titles and last
year added the NCAA crown to
their growii.g list of laurels. Sat
urday's dual meet wil be the first
real test for Werner's thinclads
Don and Bill Ashenfelter and
Dudley Foster tied for first place
with the slow time of 29:00. The
Cornell course record of 27:32 set
by Dick Church of Syracuse last
year was never threatened by
the State winning* trio.
State Places First Seven
Bob' Freebairn at 29:05 finish
ed fourth and Bob Parsons.. with
a 29:15 time, captured the fifth
spot. Al Portd finished sixth, and
Bill Gordon took • the seventh
'spot to complete the rout against
the .Outclassed Cornell team.
Stan Grossman, who placed
eighth and , Bill Killian who
notched the tenth position were
the only Big Red men to finish
in the first 12,places. Stan Lind
ner, placing ninth, Tack St. Clair,
eleventh, and Bob Roessler,
twelfth, easily outdistanced the
remainder of the Big Red squid.
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. Under the guid
ance of George Lawther, the
Lion frosh extended Frostburg to
two extra periods before the
Maryland team won the game on
a penalty kick.
Eleven members' of the 1950
Michigan State baseball team
roster got their diamond back
ground in the Detroit Baseball
Federation, one of the nation's
best municipally-sponsored pro
grams.

But Swamis Hazy
Although last Saturday turned
into a perfect day for football,
with cloudless skies smilinef
above most of the major con
tests, a thick haze blotted out the
attempts of the Collegian Swa
mis to foresee victory in their
Swami predictions.
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. It
is believed that the weatherman
will lift the smog by next Sat

which, along with the interference
infraction, gave the Lions posses
sion on the Nebraska 28. After be
ing pushed back to the 46, O'Bara
hit Smidansky again on the 19,
and Ted Shattuck rolled to the 11
for a first down.
Orsini could make only two
yards in two tries and O'Bara
missed on pass and Dick Koerber
another as the Lion threat fiizzled.
The Lions were never in the
ball game after their third period
drive stalled on the Nebraska 2.
O'Bara lugged the kickoff' 35
yards to midfield and then passed
to Smidansky on the Nebraska 31.
Orsini picked up 14 yards in two
tries for a first down on the 17.
After being set back by a five
yard penalty, O'Bara hit Smidan
sky on the 5, but three running
plays gained only 3 yards and o'-
Bara's fourth down pass failed.
That was all the Lions had to
offer. Reynolds took 'charge in the
fourth period, going all the way
twice and converting an extra
point.
Len Casanova, new Pittsburgh
nentor, hit the record books in
his soph year at Santa Clara
when he booted a 97-yard punt
against St. Marys.

Take notice, Navy and Pitt plebes! Penn State's fresh
man football teams on the warpath.
Snapping a two game losing streak Friday night by .de
feating a good Bucknell frosh
squad, 21-6, the Lion Cubs
showed a lightning fast running
attack coupled with a defense
which was good at the right mo
ments.
State scored the first time it
took- possession of the ball on
the Cub's 38 yard line.
On the second play from scrim
mage, left halfback Jimmy Finn

In the third quarter, State
moved to the Bucknell one-yard
line before the drive stalled and
the Cubs lost the ball on downs.
But the Bucknell kicker, trying
to punt out of danger on first
down, stepped out of the end zone
for an automatic safety.
Dick Jones added the final
State tally in the fourth quarter
when he broke around left end
on a pitchout from Bob Szajna
on the Bucknell 44 and went the
