PAGE SIX Avatus Stone Big Threat In Double-Wing Attack Penn State's big job this afternoon, will be to stop Syracuse's quarterback-passer Avatus Stone. Last season, Stone c played mostly on the defense but when Syracuse's two top quarterbacks, Bruce Yancey and Pat Stark, suffered broken legs early in the season, Swartzwalder switched Stone to the offense. It was after the switch that the Orangemen began running more and more from the double wing, with Stone deep to give him plenty of time to spot his re ceiver. When running from the double-wing, the men from Piety Hill usually line up with either the line tight and the backs close or 'in a spread formation with the backs deep. • Syracuse running attack also centers around Stone, who has capable help _from Bill Haskins, Bob Young, John Colceri, John Donati and Ed Dobrowolski. Sixteen Penn State seniors will see action for the last time be fore the home fans today. They are Co-captains Art Betts and Len Shephard, Pa t McPoland, Andy Silock, Charlie Wilson, Pete Twaddle, Dick Cripps, Jim Barr, Ed Hoover, Tom Pevarnik, Len Bartek, John Podrasky, Joe Shu mock, Earl Mundell, Jim Pollard, and Chan Johnson. In an effort to get the Nittany Lions' offensive game back into high gear after two games in which it could garner only 13 points, Coach Rip Engle will make some changes in his start ing lineup today. The biggest change will se freshman Buddy Howell replace the Lions' leading groundgainer Te d Shattuck at the halfback post. It will be RowelPs first starting assignment. Paul Anders, who has been in jured and out of the lineup for two weeks, will be back at his fullback spot against the Orange this afternoon. Bob Szajna will again take over the starting quar terback slot. Bob Pollard gill re main at his wingback post.'Either Don Barney or Tom Pevarnik will get the starting right guard slot. The rest of the offensive line will remain intact with Betts and Joe Yukica at ends, Hoover and Bill Hockersmitli at tackles, Len Bartek at left guard, and Jim Dooley at center. On the defense, freshman Roosevelt Grier will start at de fensive right_ tackle, replacing Dick Cripps.. Engle is still unde cided on his defensive ends, al though McPoland and Wilson will probably get the nod. Stew Scheetz will start at the other tackle, an d Barney at guard. Shephard, Joe Gratson, and Shu mock will do the linebacking, with Pollard at right half, Keith Vesling at left half, and' Don Eyer at safety. R egular defensive halfback Bill Leonard will see only limi ted action. , Schwartzwalder will also make a few changes in his lineups. In juries forced the Orange coach to leave both offensive end Ed Y a ple and defensive halfback Dino Hadjis as home. Syracuse will probably line up offensively with Tom Lehr and Joe Szombathy at ends , Bob Fleck and Bill Lupo at tackles, Nick Rahal and Dan Reimer at guards, Jimmy Ringo at center, Stone at quarterback, either Has kins, or Ed Dobrowolski and Col ceri at halfbacks, and either Bob Young or John Donati at full back. On the defense, Syracuse will line up with Andrey Browchuk and Lehr at ends, Les McClel land and Vito Greibus at tackles, Fleck and Bill Skyinskus at guards, Jim George and Rahal at the linebacking posts, Raybern Wiseman and Haskins at half backs, and Stone at safety.

For Southern California an d Stanford, who tangle in a battle of Pacific. Coast giants in Los Angeles' coliseum, they hope it's the Rose Bowl, oldest and one of the richest of the post-season features. There's no bowl in Michigan State's immediate future but the newest member of the Big Ten family can hammer up a strong' bid for national honors by, taking the measure of Notre Dame's Fighting Irish at East Lansing, Mich. Texas' ideas lean toward the Cotton Bowl at Dallas. To get there, the massive Longhorns must do a terrific rushing job on Baylor's strike-throwing Lar ry Isbell in their headline en counter at Austin, Tex. Southern California, s i x t h ranked nationally, and Stanford, No. 7, are a pair of west coast "dark horses" who, under fresh man coaches, have overshadowed THE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA Harriers-Manhattan Close Dual Season country• runners race Manhattan on• the New York City Van Cort- landt Park course this morning in the Lions' final dual , meet of the season How Chick Werner's hill-and-dalers perform against the Metro politan champions could go far toward indicating Nittany chances G q d K . pre-season favorites, California and Washington. Stanford, a sharp, quick-hitting team, has won seven in a row, as have the ponderous, powerful Trojans. Southern Cal, which also- dropped an informal game to Camp Pendleton, is a one touch down favorite. The odds-makers also have made Michigan State a six-point choice over Notre Dame although word from the middle west is that the Irish's Frank Leahy has geared his 'charges for a super effort in this. one. The Spartans from East Lans ing, who are reported to be so rich in material that they don't know what to do with it all, have won six straight games and gained No. 5 rating in the As sociated Press • poll. Texas is tenth on the national standings on the strength of a 6-1 record that includes triumphs over such teams as Kentucky, Purdue, North Carolina; Okla hoina, Rice and SMU. The Long horns' only setback was a 16-14 loss to Arkansas. After winning its . ,first four games, Baylor tied the Texas Aggies and lost to -TCLT. The Bears are ranked 16th. In quest of their fifth win , of the season, Penn State cross for a repeat victory in the Inter collegiates on the same course a week from Monday. Heavy Favorites State easily defeated Pitt, Cor nell and Michigan State in order to open the season and then had a nine dual meet streak nipped by Army. Just last . week the Lion harriers began a new skein of one by tripping NYU., The Gothamites have not fare 4 so well. They won their opener from St. Johns, lost to Syracuse, beat Villanova and then were clipped by Army, 16-45. AlthOugh defeated twice, Man hattan's losses to the Army and Syracuse harriers came at the hands of the two teams which must already be ruled as heavy favorites to win the IC4A crown. City Champ Tuesday of this week the Jas pars nabbed their fifth succes sive New York City x-country championship by a wide margin over their closest competitor St. Johns. Thus as is their custom, the Jaspers' have continued to get stronger each :succeeding week. Much of the Manhattan strength depends on perennial Metropoli tan individual champion Bill Lu cas, who has never lost it in four races. Backing up Lucas is an other veteran of the hills of Van Cortlanclt, Pat Duffy who took fourth place Tuesday in the Met title run. Heading the Lion hopes to 'trim Lucas and Duffy are Bill Ashenfelter, at- his best, and La mont Smith, rested from a week's layoff. . • Scoring ,Threats Last fall on the Nittany course Bill Ash ran the fastest five miles in his life, 25:40, to beat second place Lucas handily and lead the eventual national champion Lions to a 23-38 win. ,Dud Foster, Red Hellen, Jack Homer, and Jim Hamill form the other top-five scoring threts for the Lions._ Other Nittany thinclads run ning tomorrow are Dave Pier son, Bob Roessler, John Davison and John Chillrud. SATURDAY; NOVEMBER Soccermen Clash with Tarheels Coach Bill Jeffrey's 'soccer team will make its second home appearance of the season when it encounters the North Carolini Tarheels on the baseball field' at 10 a.m. today. In its f irst. game here, the Lions played a mediobre Buck nell squad in the opening match for both clubs. State won 5-0 as Cap ta i n Ron Coleman tallied three goals and Ellis Kocher scored two. The Southerners are unbeaten this year, having defeated Duke, North Carolina State, and Vir ginia. Carolina an d Maryland are co-favorites this year in the Southern Conference. - Shirk Replaces . Irvin Jeffrey will use the swine line up that defeated Colgate two weeks , ago, 3-1, with one excep tion. The lone change will find Don Shirk at the center, forward spot in place of Hap Irvin. Shirk's two goals against Colgate turned the tide for the Lions. The Lions also received good news when it was .learned that Jack Pinezich might see limited action. Jeffrey indicated yester day that Pinezich is improved but no t quite fully recovered. The Lion coach said that Pine zich might play a little at either one of the wing spots or at cen ter forward. The strong fresh man will be kept ,from his regu lar inside right position, which requires more work than either an outside position or center for ward. Coleman Leads Team Flanking Shirk on the right side will be Ellis Kocher,, inside right, and Bill_ Norcik, right wing. ' Against Colgate, • Norcik gave State its first goal on a drive-in shot. Kocher, along with Coleman, will be relied on to set -up the plays. Both are also (Continued on. page seven)
