X-Country Runners Fast
In First Time Trials
, Coach Chick Werner's, cross country corps 'raced! through its first time trials yesterday
afternoon on the golf course in remarkably fast time for so early in the season.
Werner was.very much _satisfied -with the pre-season time workout, which should give
him a general idea of how his squad • will withstand opposing competition in the future.

Make Debuts
Four Penn State foes, 'Penn,
Pitt, Michigan State, andASyra

Saturday, while future opponent
West Virginia was upset in its
opening' encounter. Rutgers, an

preVious Saturday, lost to Wake
Forest, 28-21.
Penn Tied Irish
Tenn, in its tied affair- with
Notre Dame, 7-7, did • everything
but actually defeat the highly
touted fighting• Irish. A third
quarter pass engineered by Glenn
Adarris to Ed Bell, covering 65
yards, and Carl SemPier's extra
point were the - damaging blows
to 'the fighting Irish. Penn had
many oPportunities throughout
the game, but could not capitalize
on them.
Carl Sempier just managed to
get,the ball over the crossbar. In
fac most fans thought the at
tempt was missed. When the offi
cials held a conference, everyone
began to wonder if the point was
good. However, the officials were
talking to the Penn captain to
find out whether or not he wanted
to try again because Notre Dathe
was offside.
Michigan: State-is once again
spotting its adversaries points be
fore it shows its real passing and
running attack. Quarterback Torn
Yewcik and halfbacks Billy Wells
and Don McAuliffe led the Spar
was .M ichig an State's 16th
straight, longeSt winning streak
in its history.
Sonny George scored in the
final three minutes of play for
Wake Forest to defeat William
and Mary, 28-21, the Lions' next
opponent.
Pitt Wins, 26-14
Syracuse, avenging. last week's
stunning upset by Bolling. Field,
produced a great ground offen
sive against Boston U. to win,
34-21. The 348 yards rolled up by
rushing was too much for Harry
sttack.
In Pittsburgh, sophomore quar
terback Rudy, Mattioli passed for
two touchdowns and scored one
himself to spark Pitt to a 26-14
victory over lowa. Pitt's defen
sive play in the final quarter
clinched the victory.
Two fourth-quarter touchdown
passes from Jim Skidmore to
George Mills aided Muhlenberg
in, a deadlock with Rutgers. Rut
gers, leading 12 to 6 after the
third quarter, couldn't stop the
passing of Skidmore.
Aslicient Rivaity
Penn State's Nov. 1 date with
Penn at Franklin Field in Phila
delphia will be the 41st in an
ancient, football rivalry.
TEE IDAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA 'N
Assembling , midway between
holes number 1 an d 2 on the
course, the varsity and frosh hill
and-dalers assumed their starting
position when assistant Coach
Norm , Gordon' yelled, "Runners
ready," and were off upon hear
ing him conclude, "Go." ,
The assemblage of athletes was
running the PIAA x-country
course. The set distance for the
varsity was 4 miles, while the
yearlings ran' 2 1 / 2 miles.
At the mile and one half mark,
sophomores Lamont Smith, Jim
Hamill, and co-captain Jackson
Homer, a junior, were, running - in
a bunch. •
Continuing their grueling pace,
the returning lettermen passed
the 2% mile site at 11:05. They
were still running grouped in this
order: Sthith, 'Hamill, Homer,
John Chillrud and Red Hollen.
About 20 seconds later the frosh
came romping towards the finish
line which is alongside of the
18th green. Leading the pack was
Henry Ford, who posted a fast
11:24 first place time. Finishing
behind him were Jim Pastorius,
Mike McKelvey, and Phil Steel.
After the frosh cleared the fin
ishing line site and were trying
Ito get their wind back, the var
sity harriers could be seen com
ing down the backstretch.
Smitty and Horner were run
ning neck and neck. Hollen was
pressing the two leaders. In the
final- thirty yards, Smitty and
Homer ran side by side and
crossed the line in a dead heat.
Their winning time was 20.52.
Hollen - finished some ten yards
behind to - cop third place with
a 20:57 clocking. Hamill and Chill
rud finished in a tie for third
with a 21:10 time: Stan Lindner,
Jim_ Cressman, and Bob Gehman
finished in that order to round
out the first eight placers.
• After the trials, Werner said
he was
,impressed with the work
out. His major complaint was that
there was a definite lack of bal
ance. Chick was referring to the
time gap which separated the
fifth and sixth place finishers.
"That's our big problem," Chick
retorted. "We have to get the
other fellows -up closer 'to them.
We're not discouraged, however,
since this is only the second week
of Practice," he concluded.
College Grid
Scene Upset
In Openers
NEW YORK 4.ll—The college foot
ball picture, which has been hazy
since the campaign got under way
two weeks ago, should come into
sharper focus when the smoke of
battle clears Saturday.
Many of the teams that the ex
perts picked to cut a swath through
their schedules instead barely stag
gered along..
Michigan State,' for example, was
accorded the No. 1 spot in the pre
season Associated Press poll to fin
ish- operations as the top-ranked
team in the country. But the Spar
tans ,had to come from behind to
whip Michigan, a have-not of the
Big Ten these days, . 27-13, Sat
urday.

no such difficulty.
Then w h,o ever would have
thought that mighty Maryland, the
stepchild of the Southern Confer
ence, would be battered and
bruised two weeks in a row and
emerge with hairline decisions.
After barely squeaking by Mis
souri in its opener, the Terps took
a narrow 13-7 decision from Au
burn Saturday.
Now they 'play Clemson, which
also is in the process of atoning for
its sins by not being permitted to
play Southern Conference teams.

The Pacific Coast Conference is
running pretty much according to
form with California the team to
beat—just as it always is.

of the Lions. Keith Vesling (17). In the background are Al Bowden
(73), Bob Smith (55), and Jesse Arnelle (89). State, an underdog
in the contest, tied the score in the final period 20-20.

Betting soothsayers are pick

Dodgers in the 1952 World Ser
ies which gets underway to
morrow at 1 p.m.
Betting men, however, aren't
always right—as the 1948 pres
idential elections will demon- '
strafe. The whole affair seems
to boil down to Brooklyn powgr
against Yankee pitching. The
fielding of both teams is excel
lent, with the Brooks gating the
edge.

Over 12,000 Collegian readers
but only 10,000 "subsalhers"
How do the, other 1300 non-students read The Col
legian? It's quite simple. They just help themselves to
the paper the students are paying for. And it's not fair
to the students!
You may ask, why do these non-students take Col
legians? Why don't they subscribe? They'll tell you that
the Collegian never gets delivered to their office on time;
(the only excuse they can think of at the moment). Well,
this year the Collegian will be delivered to all campus
buildings . . . and on time. There's no valid excuse for
the non-students' pilfering.
Subscriptions are, only $2.00 a semester or $3.75 for
a full year of accurate, up-to-date, campus and national
news. If more non-students would subscribe, then more
Collegians/could be printed . . . and at no extra cost to
the students.
So, if you can't get a Collegian in the morning, ask
a non-student . . . he has YOUR Collegian.
