Gridders Fail
In Scrimmage
, After watching the Nittany Lion football team in its
first real test of the season, a scrimmage, with Bucknell in
Lewisburg last Friday, Rip Engle sent the Lion gridders
back to hard, once-a-day practice sessions yesterday in the
belief that there was room for great improvement
before the season opener with Boston University Sept. 29
Although no official score was
kept in the scrimmage, State
managed to outscore the Bisons.
- But in doing so, the Lions gave
no impression of being a football
team that could take on the
rough schedule f acing them.
State impresSed neither the Bi
sons nor the small group of spec
tators which stood in a steady
drizzle to watch the scrimmage.
Long Way Off
'We're a long way off from
being a football team that can
make an impression on the 'sche
dule we have. We're behind
where we hoped to be at this
time," Engle commented.
For almost an hour of play,
the Bisons and Lions battled
without either gaining any sort
of advantage. Only in the latter
part of the long scrimmage could
State boast much of an offense.
Quarterback Tony Rados and
halfbacks Bob Pollard and Ted
Shattuck, who were still on the
injured list, did not play.
Offensive Team
Engle started an offensive
team of Co-Captain Art Betts
and Joe Yukica at ends. Ed Hoo
ver and Bill Hockersmith at
tackles, Le n Bartek and Tom
Pavarnik at guards, Jim Dooley
at center, Bob Szajna at quarter
back, Bill Leonard and Chan
Johnson at halfbacks, and Paul
Anders at fullback.

Few Impress
Standout performances in the
scrimmage for State came froth
Charlie Wilson and Pat, McPo
land, the defensive ends, and Bill
Leonard, Matt Yanosich, and
Pete Shopa, offensive backs.
Wilson scored once for State
when he picked up a blocked
kick and carried it into the end
zone. Yanosich and Shopa, both
sophomores, gained consistently
from the fullback position: Leon
ard, taking his first crack at of
fensive work for the Lions, also
impressed Engle.
Chan Johnson made the long
est run of the day for. the Lions
when he returned a'purft some
60 yards into Bucknell's .end
zone.

Using the recent good weather to full: ad-Vantage, the Penn State
soccer team has been stressing fundamentals in preparation:for its
opener against Buckfiell; here, Oct. 6. • • •-•
Thus far, the Lions have been putting most of their 'emphasis
do kicking and passing.. Coach Bill Jeffrey his - run; his' 'charges
through scrimmages every night, as the Lion coach is evidently a
firm believer in the idea that practice makes - perfect. ' "
With eight of theli starting el
tion, a vast rebuilding progr.4m is
stalwarts as All-American Harry
Little,. goalie, R• o n Coder, and
the team high scorer,• Joe Lane.
One Man Show'
It was Lane • who last year
against Bucknell, put on a one-,
man show with a total of seven
goals.
State's biggest loss was suffered
in the forward line where, in addi
tion to Lane and Little, the Lions
also ,logt Gus Bigott and Clarence
Buss. Buss was the runnerup in
team scoring , With eight 'tallies
and a second string All-American
choice at outside left. Bigott was
an excellent ball-control man.
The lone returning starter in ,
the front line is this year's cap
tain, Ron Coleman, who'll see
plenty of action at inside left.
Irvin, Shirk Promising,`,
However, Jeffrey might have
twoo "sleepers" in Hap. 'lrvin •and
Don Shirk.: Shirk was a starter
for the frosh club last year while
Irvin went 'on the Iran trip with
the varsity. Ellis Kocher and
Gary Nugent could also • break
into the lineup come Oct. 6.
Other returning men are half
backs Frank Fulmer, Jack Charl
ton, and Kurt Klaus. Charlton
was at the left position while Ful
mer and Klaus played at the right
and center spots respectively.

has yet to capture a match from
the Lions in 17 previous appear
