Bob Holleri, Pete Judd, and

from the freshman ranks. Once
again, it is impossible to predict
their value. All are promising, but
varsity competition over, a five
mile course can do strange things.
Hollen looks like the best of the
newcomers. By the end of the
present campaign he should be
among the leaders. He has plenty
of confidence, form and stamina,
and could become a standout. '

against Army Saturday. Assistant
Lion Coach Joe Bedenk describes
him as “a fine runner, fast and
elusive, and an excellent pass re
ceiver.”
Bedenk compares Haner with
former Villanova fullback Ralph
Pasquariello, who Penn State
senjors will remember as the har'd
plunging back who starred against
the Lions in the 1949 opener when
Villanova defeated State, 27-6.

experience.
State's best bets to score
against the Panthers, appear to
be Ashenfeller, Horner, Foster,
Hollen,, and. Sarahtopolous.
This could, be Saranlopolous'
best meet of the, season since
.he is in excellent shape. Horne?
-is also in lop shape, and
petitions should bring out the"
best in Ash and Foster. Big Bill
hasn't hit his peak yet, but
should have enough know-how
to finish near the top.
' Meanwhile, Olson brings one of
the best Pitt teams in years to
Beaver Field. The Panthers will
work out on the golf .course this
afternoon, and stay in Bellefonte
tonight. - - i
Olson has J three veterans to
bolster his squad. Bemie- Luteran
cik, who finished fourth against
the Lions last year, will be gun
ning for that number one posi
tion. Veteran Ken Mahanna, who
won the Panthers’ opening meet
last week, will also deserve recog
nition. He placed seventh in
Pitt’s 17-38 loss to the Lions last
year.
The Panthers’ ace miler, Frank
Kuzma, Don • Deligatti,' and Dan
Somers, promising sophs, round
out Pitt’s top five.
The psychological and physi
cal factors favor Pitt. Pitt can
shoot the works with nothing to
lose, but the meet, while file
Lions have a national title at
stake. The Panthers also have
been in training longer and
have a meet under their belts.
But watch for Ashenfelter, Hol
len, and Foster in that first group
of finishers.
