After zooming to a first-Place tie with Daily Collegian Sports
Editor Jake Highton in last week's football predictions, the "red
warm guessing" Lion grid coaches will dispatch their ace repre
sentative, Joe Paterno, to try to overtake sportswriter Bob Schoell
kopf's leading .727 percentage this week.
' This will mark the second week of the coaches' sending one
representative at a time to make the selections, instead of a vote
of the entire staff. '
In the game of the week, the Penn-Princeton contest, the
selections are split with Paterno and Highton picking the Red
and Blue and Schoellkopf and Assistant Sports Editor Ted Soens:
taking the_Tigers. Predictions are also split for the 'LSU-Kentucky
tilt, Highton and Schoellkopf taking LSU and Paterno and Soens
favoring the Wildcats. The predictions:

The Lion's
By JAKE 1-lIGHTON
Colleaiari Sports Editor
With Penn State's prominence-gaining football team gaged on
important business in Morgantown, West Virginia, BeaVerField Will
not echo with the shouts of 20,000 throats for the first time in three
straight Saturdays. The only sound likely to be•heard in the Nittany
Colesium today is that of a soccer ball booming off the talented feet
,
and heads of Penn State soccermen.
The Lion booters have the athletic premises all to themselves—
without the distraction of a football game—as they hook up with a
strong Maryland team. On the assumption that "you can't tell the
players without a scorecard," let's take a look at some • of Penn
State's biggest kickers:
HUBIE KLEIN, outside left, Jr., 20, 5-10, 165, Benton—Big stick
wielder for the Nittany baseballers last spring, Hubie has come
along well in his first year on the, soccer varsity . . . Biggest asset
is furious drive, forceful play and power . . . A torn knee cartilage
will keep him sidelined todaj.
DON SHIRK, inside left, Jr., 20, 5-9, 142,• Thompsontown—
Filling fine for State's All-American Ron Coleman . . . Faster
than Ron . . . Good passer and setter-up of playi . . . Improving
all the time.
JACK. PINEZICH, center forward, Soph., 19. 6-0, 180, New York
City—All around ability . . ,Poise, challenging player . . . Club's
top scorer . . . Good judgment . . . Sprained back last year, but
should be great this season . . . Made a flying start- last week. •His
first of five goals against Bucknell was a beauty. With the ball
between himself and the goalie, Jack deftly tapped it into the net
rather than attempt a slam.
ELLIS KOCHER, inside right, Sr., 21, 5-9, 160, Espy—One of best
passers on the team, quick with pass-offs . . . Knows what's coming
up next . . . Booted important goal in 1-1 tie with Temple last year
. . . Coach Bill Jeffrey says that although Ellis is a conservative
player, he is extremely dependable.
BILL NORCIK, outside right, Jr.. 19, 5-8, 135, Heidelberg—
Speed main factor . . . Has developed into a good wingm,an . . .
Gaining confidence, he kicked two into the net• last week against
Bucknell . . . Jeff thinks he still lacks overall field vision, the
judgment of a football quarterback.
RALPH HOFMANN, left halfback, Jr., 20, 5-6, 140, Rockledge—
Currently playing ahead of the more gifted veteran, Jack Charltan
. . : Much potentiality which should come out with more experience
. . Jeff likes his energy and staying power.
CAPTAIN KURT KLAUS, center halfback, Sr., 21, 5-11, 165,
Philadelphia—Most consistent player on the team . . . Ball hawk
and tough man to get around passing or otherwise . . . Largely re
sponsible for making the first line of defense the fullbacks, a dan
gerous offensive threat.
FRANK FOLLMER, right halfback, Sr., 21;5-9, 160, Philadelphia
—Fails in Coach Jeffrey's same category as Klaus, "hard to find
two better performers than Kurt and Frank" . . . A hustler, always
moving fast . _ National Soccer Coaches' All-American last year
. . Good ball handler along with speed. Might and endurance.
HAP IRVIN, left fullback, Jr., 22, 6-1, 170, Kennett Square--
Ball control from ,forward wall days, helps him to visualize plays
and set up well from his new position . . Jeff says the switch
finds Hap doing better job for the club and himself ... Jeff much
impressed with Hap's play at the new position . . . Hap went on
the Iran trip two years ago as a frosh . . . Scored the goal that
beat Maryland last year, 1-0;
PAUL DIERKS, right fullback, Soph, 19, - 6-2, 185, Brobklyn—
Cagey and smart, knows what to do with ball ... Good kicker, this
Brooklyn boy is no Bum when it comes to soccer savvy.
808 HARRIS, goalie, Jr.. 20, 5-11, 170, Bridgeville—The jovial
Redhead is the team clown along with Hap . . . 2nd year varsit7
goalie doing a good job at this vital post . . . Good diagnoser of
plays . . . Helpful to backfield calling out plays . . • Quick starter
on feet . .. Usually in right spot at right time.
In ready reserve are: JACK CHARLTAN, right halfback, Sr.,
24, 5-9, 165, Philadelphia ... A three-year veteran from same North
east H.S. as Kurt and Frank . Bothered by shin splints-all fall.
LYNN THOMANN, left wing, 50ph.,20, 5-7, 160, Centre Hall—
Starting today in place of Klein .. . ood left foot, necessary at the
left wing . . . EMIL BORRA„ fullback, Jr., 19, 5-10, 145, Beadling--
Jeff figures him to develop into a "good boy." DEWEY KRUMRINE,
Goalie, Sr., 21, 6-4, 170, State • College—Varsity baseball pitcher
kept in reserve by Red Harris.
