and Milheim.
Dick Packer, Dick Matacio, and
Mert Springer, all forwards, of

State attack, Packer kicked in
five goals in State's 9-1 victory
over Milheim, •
Varsity-wise, outside of Kline,
the Nittany Lions are in fine
shape, except for minor ailments.
Right winger Bill Norcik com
plained of a stiff leg, but said
that it didn't bother him to any
extent. Captain and center half
back Kurt Klaus showed up- to
practice with a puffed-up lip.
Successive Home Games
State will have a new outlook
on the game, Maryland possessing
practically an entire front line of
foreign players. Lost, however, is
All-Americari goalie Eric Baer,
who, along with the mud and the
rain, held State to a 1-0 decision
last year at Maryland. Hap Irvin,
performing for th e Lions this
year at left fullback alongside of
Paul Dierks, scored the lone State
goal
Following Maryland are games
all at home an d on successive
weekends, with Navy, Colgate,
and Army. Army promises to be
the toughest, according to last
year's records. State defeated
Colgate, tied Navy, and loSt to
the Cadets.
Front Line
I Offensively, State will base its
fortunes on lanky Jack Pinezich,
who tallied five times against
Bucknell. Pinezich will open at
center forward.
Other front line men who will
start are Norcik (right wing); El
lis Kocher -(i nsi de right); Don
Shirk (inside left): and probably
Thomann at left wing.
It will probably be Frank Foll
mer, Klaus, and either Ralph Hof
mann or Jack Charlton at the
halfbacks.
Dierks and Irvin will probably
handle the fullback slots while
Bob Harris will start at goal.
O'Hora said the Mounties
showed more spirit than they had
against a Furman team which
was grossly underestimated by
West Virginia. The Nittany scout
further commented that Satur
day's tussle is a
"key, terrific
type of game de
spite the season
r e c ords" which
show West Vir
ginia, l-1, an d
Penn State, 2-0-1.
O'Hora listed
the recommenda
tions of West
Virginia: "g o o d
ru n nink attack. Jim o•Hora
good passing g ame, fast half
backs, and a fine ballhandling
Quarterback, Fred, Wyant."
O'Hora further describes Wy
ant as an accurate left handed
passer who tosses soft, easy-to
grab aerials from a tricky Split-T
offense.
On the receiving end of Wy
ant's passes are two excellent
ends in Paul Bischoff and 13111
Marker. O'Hora says Bischoff and
Marker fake well and are good
blockers in addition to being
gi:^ndout receptionists.

Sophs Prominent
On Harrier Squad
Nine specimens of substantial sophomore speed and stamina are
due to spring into action for the Lions an 4 figure prominently in
the outcome of the Penn State-Cornell crossountry meet Saturday
at Ithaca.
It will mark the opening dual meet for Coach Chick Werner's
pupils, and the second of the campaign for Cornell Coach Lou Mont
gomery.
Coach Montgomery will look to three sophomores for his great
est show of strength in Don Farley, Jim Stillman, and Mike Browne.
Millman Looks Good
Both Silliman and Browne figured heavily in the Big Red's
25-32 victory over Colgate.
SiMillen, showing surprising strength in his first varsity race,
covered the 5.1-mile home golf course in 30.36 seconds to place third.
Browne finished fifth in 30.48. The winning time was 30.21, •
• The only other two Cayugans to place in the first ten were
Co-Captain Bill O'Brian and veteran Dave Willig. Both saw action
agtinst,State last fall, with O'Brian finishing ninth. •
Lions Romped
In that harrier race a year ago, four Lions r —Bill Ashenfelter,
Lamont Smith, Red Hollen, and Jack Homer—finished in a quad
ruple dead heat for first place in 26.48 on the home cc:lune.
It was an "easy 16-48 conquest for the Wernermen, as only one
Cornell man,' Bob Grossman,crashed the first eight-finishing order.
Grossman has been graduated since then. •
With sophomore Smith, junior Hollen, and senior Horner back,
along with up-and-coming sophomores John Chilrud, Jim Hamill,
Don Austin, and Skip Slocum, State is expected to be tough.
Putting ten men in a row across the finish Erie after Colgate
had taken first and second, Cornell's hill-and-dale squad seems
to be well-balanced.
To date, that appears to be Werner's' problem. In both time
trials the past two weeks, the lettermen have been running excep
tionally well and have been placing no better than sixth.
If the rest of the candidates can close the gap between the
sixth and ninth man, Werner's men should start the season off
on a victory note. •
Dorm 1, Coal (rackets
Nab 2d IM Grid Wins

notched its second victory of the season, defeating a stubborn Ath

the second tally, hitting Dick
Ward with a payoff pitch from
7 yards out. Both conversion at
tempts failed.
Atherton Hall was held' in
check throughout the game by
the alert pass defense of Dorm 41.
Timely interceptions ended sev
eral Atherton 'scoring threats, and
took the punch out of its offense.
Delta Sigma Phi" downed Kap
pa Alpha Psi 14-0. The smoothly
clicking offense of the Delts, led
by Don Davis and Tom Furbee,
kept the Kappa Alpha squad
backed up to its own goal line
throughout most of the contest.
After a Furbee to Dick Evans aer
ial put the ball on the three, Davis
hit Evans again for the- score.
Davis ran to tally the extra point.
The second TD was a. three-sided
affair, the ball going from Davis
to Butch Shaeffer to Evans, cov
ering ,a total of 40 yards.
Paul Mastroroeco took a Davis
pass for the conversion. A third
touchdown, again on a long pass
play, was called back on a pen
alty.
Sparked by Marty Scicchitano,
the Coal Crackers, beat the Hust
lers, 12-0. The first six-pdinter
came on a 5-yard• toss from Scic
chitano to Tom Falkie. The con
version was nullified on a pen
alty. Sam Procopio latereled to
Scicchitano, who then tossed a
strike to Dan Krotchko in the end
zone for the second score.
