WEDNESDAY, OCTpBER 24, 1951
The Lion's Lair
Rip Engle’s grid men will meet one of Penn State’s oldest rivals,
West Virginia, this Saturday, and although Coach Art Lewis is in
the midst of rebuilding, t]je Mountaineers have-shown plenty of
scoring power this year.
With a host of freshmen and sophomores in the lineup, West
Virginia has piled up 151 points in five ball games. Against Geneva
last Saturday ,the Mountaineers
went wild, running up 89 points
against the hapless Covenanters —
the highest score ever posted by
a West' Virginia
U. grid team,
The odd thing
about it was that
11 different men
scored and only
two men scored
more than one
TD. Nine of the
13 touchdowns
were scored by
freshmen.
, West Virginia might be inex
perienced and Geneva might be
weak, but 89 pointy is a power
ful lot of points to score in one
game. Coming‘right oh the tail
of the Michigan State game, the
Mountaineers could cause the
Lions some trouble come Saturday
afternoon.

weekend and Penn State next
month.
The ex-Duquesne coach, thinks
the Lions are "potentially, a
great ball team." He thought
they might have passed a little
more against the Spartans.
One of the bright spots for Penn
State last Saturday . was • .the
punting of Co-captain'Art .Betts.
The lanky Lion end averaged 39
yards per kick. His punt in the
first half which went out of
bounds on the two yard line and
his 67 yard boot in the second
half were beauties.
★ ★ ★
Can't overlook Bob Pollard's
■ brilliant runback of a Tom
Yewcic punt in the opening
minutes of the second half. He
did almost the identical thing
against Nebraska, but it was
called back because of defensive
holding by State.
Spartan safety man Jim Ellis’
runback was a beauty, too. You
begin to realize just how tough
Michigan State is when you see
runners like Ellis playing defen
sive safety man.

match ended in a deadlock.
Thus, a special 90 yard medley
relay was run off with McKee
finally winning the meet, 17-16.
