Both Cy and Don are sophomores and should be in the limelight by the time they are juniors and seniors. Harrier Hopefuls Begin Workouts for Campaign Although their first cross country meet is still three weeks away, Coach Chick Werner’s ’52 returning hopefuls have been doing daily jogs on the golf course in preparation for the op ening gun with Cornell 'All athletes who have been working will form the nucleus of this year’s squad. Last season when the Nittany harriers won five and lost one, most of the sophs were coming along nicely towards the end of the campaign and were beginning to keep up that grueling five-mile pace. Sophs Dominant “Several of this year’s sopho mores were good last season, and should continue to improve,” Wer ner, who assisted with the Olym pic chores this past summer in Helsinki, reported yesterday. Such names as Smith, Chilrud, and Hamill, among others, should be carrying the brunt of the load during the coming campaign, during thecomingcampaign. Soph omores Lamont Smith, John Chil rud, Jim Hamill,Don Austin, Al-Ter rall, Tom Demboski, Skip Slocum, Dave Leathum, and Harry Bie miller, were cited by Werner as the foundation for his ’52 squad. Loosening Up The veterans, according toWer ner, have been doing condition ing jaunts twice daily. Such ex ercising is quite essential in cross country, since “there’s no use try ing to time a guy for five miles if he can’t run the distance,” was Chick’s reply when we asked him about the workouts. “It (daily distance jogs) is the most important part of cross country training,” Werner contin ued. “It’s a gradual process and it takes quite some time before they loosen up their muscles and get used to the distance,” he added. Werner and his assistant Norm Gordon haven’t been clocking the seasoned performers, and don’t intend to do so until October. Right now the returnees are set ting their own paces and doing work on the side.

Rec Hall or on the golf course, where the squad practices. Getting back to the soph pros pects, one name that’s very fa miliar to State track fans is Smitty. The short, stocky, blonde haired hill-and-daler will again be toiling in cross country ranks for only the second year in his young athletic career. A rarity last season when he romped off with a victory in the first collegiate harrier race of his life, Smitty should carry a great deal of weight this season when it comes time for computing first place points. A die-hard who runs his heart off even in practice ses sions, Smitty is hoping to take up where he left off last year. THE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA past week out the Guard, Tackle Slots Give Gridders Strong Middle (This is the second In a series of articles which attempts to spotlight the Penn Stale football team position for position to see who will represent the Lions on the gridiron this fall. Today—the Guards and Tackles.) Opponents of Penn State’s football team will find mighty tough going if they try to dent the center of the Nittany line this fall. For in the tackle and guard slots the Lions are well stocked with veterans who should prove to be rugged individuals. With four tackle lettermen and three guard returnees, State seems well fortified along the center of the line despite the loss of giant tackles Ed Hoover and Bill Hocker- Grid Manager V. Sophomore candidates for second assistant football man ager for 1952 are asked to sign up today at the graduate man ager of athletics office in 106 Old Main. Baseball Parade By BARRY FEIN It seems that the National League has once again caught that strange baseball d i s e a s e— constriction of the standings. Med ical experts say that there is no known cure except the daily in jection of pitching into the veins of the Brooklyn Dodgers. The latest attack of this dis ease saw the Giants pull to within three and a half games by sending the Pathetic Pir ates down to their 103rd loss of the season, 5-4, yesterday. A combination of homers by A 1 Dark and Sal Yvars plus an error by catcher Joe Garagiola of the Bucs gave Sal Maglie his 16th win as against 6 setbacks. Reliefer Hoyt Wilhelm’s knuck ler was also a big factor in the win, striking out Gus Bell and Ralph Kiner after a let in one run. The Dodgers, meanwhile, put together seven unearned runs, in cluding a grand slammer by-Andy Pafko, in a vain attempt to beat the Chicago Cubs, who rocked the wobbly Dodger staff for 11 runs. The game was a loosely-played affair which included 22 hits and seven errors. Smalley hit his fifth homer off the bespectacled Clyde King, and, with South Carolinian Joe Landrum on the hill in the eighth, Hank Sauer doubled in his 120th run of the year. Bob Rush (15-12) got the victory over Billy Loes (13-8). The disease has its counter part on the other side of the ma jor league fence. The Indians moved to within a half game of the Yankees as Bobby Avila's fourth-inning homer gave them a 1-0 shutout over Harry Byrd and the Philadelphia Athletics. Big Bear Mike Garcia racked up number 20 as against nine de feats. He has now tossed 28 con secutive scoreless innings. The sweep of the three-game series gives the Tribe a string of eight straight v/ins, the league high for the year. In the also-ran department, the Washington Nats finally broke their losing streak by beating the White Sox. A three run outburst in the sixth broke up a tight duel between Walt Masterson of the Senators and Joe Dobson of the Sox. Bach allowed only four hits. The last-place Tigers continued to harass the Boston Red Sox by squeaking past them 5-4. Big Walt Dropo’s two homers and pinch hitter Jim Delsing’s tie-breaking single in the eighth handed the blushing Red Sox their tenth straight defeat on the road. Yesterday was Satchel Paige's birthday. Satch, you know, is a rather elderly hurler for the Brownies. Archeologists study ing hieratic writing claim to have found his birthdate. Some say the dates are too weather beaten to decipher his age. Anyhow, he, keeps his ERA down around 3.00, which would even be considered good in the Lower Nile Valley League. Ex-Brown Grid Chief Penn State’s football nqentar, Charles A. “Rip” Engle, formerly directed Brown University’s grid destinies. smith and guard Len Bartek. The guards and tackles, like the majority of the team, will be seeing both offensive and defen sive duty. Coach Rip Engle ex plains it this way: the first team offensive line is the second and third team defense and the first team defensive line is the second and third team offensive line. Heading up the tackles are Co captains Joe Gratson and Stew Scheetz. Gratson. a converted center, will still be in his smash ing backerup spot on defense, but will play the right tackle slot on offense. Senior Joe is 6 feet and weighs 210. His cohort Scheetz will be holding down his old spot as defensive right tackle. Stew is one of the biggest men on the squad and nothing to be messed! with at 235 pounds. At the other defensive tackle position, soph Rosey Grier is a good bet for a' starting role he held toward the end of last season when he was one of three frosh winning letters. Rosey stands 6-5, 230, and has looked pretty good this year. The scholastic ineligibility of Andy Balakonis, who would have easily made the first or second team, has left Gene Danser and Herb Raifsnider. best bets to hold down one of the other starting offensive positions. Danser is on ly a sophomore at 6-3 and 208 while Raifsnider is a senior scal ing 6-3, 215. A 1 Bowden, 6-1 and 240, and Danny De Falco. 6-0 and 210, are in strong contention for the de fensive tackle positions and should see much action behind Grier and Scheetz. Jim Eshbach and Paul Shattuck will be in re serve at the tackle posts. The offensive guard positions appear to be well manned with letterwinners Pete Schoderbek and Don Barney showing the way. Schoderbek is a rugged 195 poun der who won’t let an opponent forget he is around, and senior Barney is a veteran of two pre vious varsity campaigns. Pete’s only a junior. At the defensive guard spots, Carl Pfirman and Sam Green have shown the best. "And sur prisingly enough, both are soph omores. Pfirman, an offensive tackle, goes 202 and stands 6-1 while Green is a former Potts town High backfield star con verted to the line by the coach ing staff. Sam is a 198 pounder, standing 5-1 i. Another If :shman letterwinner last year, IV n Shank, is pushing both the defensive and offensive guard frontrunners extremely hard. Shank is a Norristown lad who is 5-11 and 198.
