To Hand Penn State First Defeat
Villanova College took advantage of Penn State mis
takes Saturday afternoon and scored a not too impressive
20-14 victory over the Lions at Allentown.
In a rough, roqk-’em-and-sock-’em game which saw Vil
lanova penalized 129 yards and Penn State 46, the Wildcats
capitalized on almost every break they received to hang
up their second straight victory \ and/remain undefeated.
With Ben Addiego and Bob

downs to the Lions 13.
Villanova scored the second
time it got possession of the ball
in the first quarter.
After the Wildcats had driven
all the way down to State’s 20
yard line and stalled, State took
over on its own 25. The Lions
could pick up only four yards in
three plays and Co-captain Art
Betts went back into punt for
mation.
Villanova Recovers
Jim Dooley’s pass from center
was low and Betts fumbled the
ball. He picked it up and tried
to kick it on the run but the ball
rolled off the side of his foot and
Villanova recovered on State’s 16
yard line.
On the seconjj play, Brannau
passed to Dick Bedesem who went
to the four yard line. Bedesem
bucked to the two before Haner
went over for the score. Haner’s
kick was good but Villanova was
penalized for illegal use of the
hands. Haner’s kick from the 17
was no good. Villanova led 6-0.
Penn State dominated the play
the rest of the first half, receiv
ing no less than four chances to
score, but could only push the
ball into the end zone once. /
Shatiuck Goes

around and finally grabbed by
Villanova’s Paul Tomko behind
the goal for an automatic touch
back. Villanova took possession
on the 20. **

The Lions got another chance
when Addiego fumbled on the
first play and Stew Scheetz re

Frosh Smith
Paces Win
Over Pitt
By JAKE HIGHTON
In one of those rarities of. sports,
Penn State freshman Lamont
Smith romped off with victory in
the first collegiate cross .country
races of his life to lead the Lion
harriers to a 19-36 season-starting
triumph over Pitt Saturday.
Despite the extreme heat for x
country running,' which withered
all of the Nittany lettermen,
Smith covered the fiye-mile Col
lege golf course in 26:58.8.
Sophomore Red Hollen also
made an auspicious varsity debut
by grabbing second for the Lions
20 yards behind in 27:08. '
Dud Foster, State’s first veteran
to cross the line, checked in third
with a 27:25 clocking.
Luterancik Fourth
Pitt’s Bernie Luterancik cli
maxed a gradual rise from 10th
place earlier in the race to cop
fourth horiors in 27:35.
Jack Horner continued the first
varsity-race scoring trend for the
Lions by finishing fifth in 27:44.
From fifth on, Carl Olson’s Pan
thers swarmed home in force,
making it fortunate that some of
the first-race men did so well.
Leading the bulge of this strong
est Pitt team in recent years was
Jim Betts in sixth place, clocked
at 27:49, followed in seventh by
Dan Somers.
Ash Rallies for Bih
Bill Ashenfelter, who never lost
a dual meet all last fall with the
national championship team,
fought off Pitt’s Don Delligatti at
the finish for eighth place and
State’s final scoring position.
Ken Mahanna and Frank Kuz
ma tied for 10th to be counted as
Pitt’s final scorers. ' ,
At the mile mark almost the en
tire pack passed in "4:59. But by
the time the runners reached three
miles Horner, Smith, Foster and
Hollen were all abreast at 15:53.
Ashenfelter was 20 yards behind
all alone in fifth but closely purl
sued by Somers, Kuzma .and Betts.
Then when Luterancik began to
step it up the Panthers rallied four
men to move up on the State lead
ers.
Heartbreak Hill
• At the four-mile spot just be
fore the final run up “heartbreak
hill” Smith and Hollen were run
ning ahead with Foster and Hor
ner close behind. Luterancik had
closed in behind Bill Ash who was
still in fifth.
Smith and Hollen kept moving
steadily on while the rest of the
Lions just seemed to slowly fade
back. Luterancik, showing sur
prising hill-power, came on with
a.rush to overtake Bill Ash,on the
hill and finally Horner inside the
Stadium to break up what at the
three-mile mark appeared to be a
Lion sweep.
The Lions’ Peteir Sarantopoulos
was running close to the leaders
after two miles when he pulled a

Coleman
Nets Three
For Lions
By Tom Saylor
Despite typical sporadic first
game form, Penn State’s soccer
team easily defeated Bucknell,
5-0, on the baseball field Satur
day. '
Only during the first half of
the opening period did the Bisons
give any semblance of a • battle.
After that Coach Bill Jeffrey’s
crew was in complete charge. •
The Lions continually knocked
at Bucknell’s goal line all after
noon and, had they been so in
clined, probably could have rolled
up scores at will. At no time in
the game, however, was Pehn
State really, pressed.
Lions Aggressive
Penn State’s aggressiveness and
its ability to come up with the
right plays at the right time kept
the Bisons on the defensive all
afternoon. Left fullback Jay
Simmons and right halfback
Frank Follnier played some stel
lar defensive ball for State. Cap
tain Ron Coleman was outstand
ing offensively for the Lions.'
As to the contest itself, State’s
inability to follow up missed
shots cost the club one or two
possible goals early in the first
quarter. l
Center forward Ellis Kochner,
a last-minute starter, for Don
Shirk, scored the first goal when
he bounced a pass off his head
at 11.35. It was the first of two
goals for Kochner.
Less than two minutes later,
Coleman, whose tricky ball hand
ling and fine passing had the
Bisons running in circles all
afternoon, was awarded a penalty
shot on a “hands violation. The
captain missed but followed the
shot up nicely to tally at 12:5b.
Jeffrey Holds Back
State's lead soared to 3-0 in the
first quarter when Kocher scored
another just 1:15 before the end
of the period. At that time, it
looked as if State- might make a
run-away of the game, but Jeff
rey held his team back. ,
It was Coleman who tallied the
loan' goal in the second quarter
when he left-footed one at 12:51
from 60 feet out. Bucknell’s .first
real opportunity to score also
came in this period, but State was
equal to the occasion as goalie
