PAGE SIX O'Hora Describes Purdue As Tough Football Opponent Dale Samuels Key to Purdue Grid Attack The Nittany Lion football squad will go up against win-starved Purdue University this Saturday and Assistant Coach Jim O'Hora, who scouted Purdue against Wis consin and Notre Dame, reports that the Boilermakers are going to be a /tough foe to handle. With but one win in the recore books and a losing streak of three straight games, Coach Stu Holcomb's squad has had a rough time of it so far this season and the Boilermakers would like nothing better than to jump back on the victory trail when they meet Penn State in Lafayette, One Win. Four. Losses O'Hora reports that Purdue is a much- better ball club than its four losses and one win record indicates. He pointed out that all four of the Boilermaker's losses came at the hands of grid powers. After losing to Texas in the opener, 14-0, Holcomb's squad edged lowa, 34-3,0, for its only win. Miami of Florida downed the Boilermakers in their next' outing, 7-0. Tough Wisconsin and Notre Dame also took the meas ure of the Purdue gridders. Wis consin won 31-7, while Notre Dame whipped the , Boilermakers, 30-9. "Purdue is a typical Big Ten team," said O'Hord. "They have a hard, rough ball club. They have a strong passing attack with a good passer and good receivers." Samuels Good Passer The Lion coach spoke highly of Dale Samuels, Purdue's aces quar terback and passer. "Samuels is a good passer and he's fast and shifty. He likes to run but not as much as (Harry) Agganis." O'Hora went on to say that the Boilermakers depend a great deal on Samuels' passing in their of fensive attack. "Their passing ‘ attack is 40 per cent of their offense. They threw 26 passes against Notre Dame and 33 against Wisconsin." Strong Defense Bernard Flowers is an excel lent receiver according to O'Hora and is .Samuels' favorite targets The Purdue quarterback also has two other capable receivers in Leo Sugar and Darrel Brewster. Defensively, Purdue has a big, strong ball team. The Bo ile r maker's defensive line averages 234 pounds. The Lion scout hinted that the Lions might have to take to the air Saturday to beat the Indiana school. "They are a little weak on pass defense," said O'Hora. "Wiscon sin gained 139 yards along the ground but 98 of the yards were accounted for by runs of 82 and 16 yards by Wisconsin's Al Ame che." Klezek Best Runner Last Saturday against Notre Dame, the Boilermakers gave the Irish a battle all through the first half but wilted in the second half and 'dropped the ball game, 30-9. After the game, Notre Dame Coach Frank Leahy said that his team had played its best game of the season in that contest. O'Hora reports that Purdue's top running threat is probably halfback Phil Klezek who he des cribes as a hard runner. In Pur due's first three contests, Klezek gained 135 yards for a per play average of 4.82 yards. Klezek did not play against Notre Dame be cause of an injury received in the Wisconsin contest. The meeting of Penn State and P u r due SatUrday in Lafayette will mark the first time the two schools have met on the gridiron.

Frank McPhee of the Tigers was rated tops for his great de fensive work in Princeton's stun ning 53-15 defeat of• Cornell, and Lowell Perry of the Wolverines' for his spar.ing offensive play as he scored ihree times in Mich igan's 54-27 victory over Minne sota. Technically speaking, the speedy Perry actually made one of his touchdowns as Michigan's safety man, running'bacl a punt 75 yards past the startled Go phers. His offensive work, how ever, overshadowed the efforts of other players nominated in the weekly AP poll. Oddly enough, McPhee also has considerable experience as a 'de fensive back, having spent his sophomore season last year with Princeton's defensive platoon. But he was at left end iast Saturday, however, an d Rodeo Calvo and the other Cornellians won't soon forget that fact. Calvo was supposed to keep Cornell in the game with his passing, but everytime he looked downfield for his receivers he saw instead the 6-3, 198-pound McPhee lobm ing in front of him. When he elected to lave Cor nell run the ball, it was usually McPhee who crashed through to make the tackle or mow down the white-shirted Cornell block ers. By JIM PETERS The 39'ers scored twice in the first half. and held on to the lead to trim Dorm 4, 13-0. The first six-pointer , resulted from a Donald Paley to Ronald Faust to William Englert pass that covered 24 yards. Later, Faust pitched ou t to Paley and his pass to Chet Mut kowski, bounced off the latter's shoulder into the waiting hands of teammate, William Kinzie. The point after the touchdown went from Paley to Faust to Englert.
