The Importance of Being Earnest at Center Stage By JAKE HIGHTON Penn State’s 26-point per game football offense stut tered and stalled against a rock-ribbed Nebraska line Saturday, but the Nittany de fense threw up an even more solid stone wall to make more than\ one touchdown or one Bill Leonard field goal unnec essary for victory. Lacking-the scoring punch that they flashed all season inside the opposition 20, the Lions frittered away countless opportunities be fore toppling the Cornhuskers from the ranks of the unbeaten, 10-0, in front of 30,000 pleased, but unawed Homecoming Day rooters. The sunny Beaver Field shut out—the gridders’ first since the middle of the 1950 season—gave the Lions their fourth win of the season and left them in the dis tinguished unbeaten class for '■'aturday’s coming clash with ' wastating Michigan State. bruising defensive battle iduced the Nittany game oddity lis year, a scoreless first half, and saw the Lion ground attack smothered with only 37 net rush ing yards yielded by,, the Nebras kians in the opening two periods. Stalled at Goal After incessant knockings at the goal line, State hit the end zone in the waning moments of the third quarter via a Tony Ea do’s to Jess Arnelle pass. Leonard took second high-scoring honors with an extra point and a dupli cate of his only other collegiate field goal kicked against the same Big Seven lads last year. The pattern of the entire game was set in the first period. Both offenses drove strongly an£ rolled well until in the shadow of the goal posts. Twice in the first quar ter State held the ball deep in Nebraska land but conked out. Malinak Recovers Early in the game State’s fierce backerup Sam Green intercepted a deflected pass and swept back 19 yards to the Husker 45. Rados fired to end Joe Yukica —latter removed from the game with a torn knee ligament—who made a neat diving catch for eight yards and followed with another grab of a Rados jump for a first down on the 24. Then Nebraska’s fine line swarmed in to stop the Lion running attack in a manner which became a habit in the first half. One series of downs later guard Don Barney bolted through the line to block a Johnny Bordogna punt and State’s standout defen sive end Don Malinak was on the ball at the Husker 37. Unable to move, Ted Kemmerer kicked out on the nine. Beautiful trap plays up the mid dle drove to the State 43. Then the brilliant runner Bordogna bootlegged around end to the Lion 24 before Don Bailey made the stop. State held with. Mali nak and Stew Scheetz making one vital stop. An exchange of punts and State had a big chance after re covering a fumble on the Husker 30. Matt Yanosich barreled to the 18 for a FD and he and Jones alternated to the 6 where a fum bel fell under Nebraska paws. A kick and the Lions were roaring _at the door again. Rados passes to Yukica, Jones, and Ar nelle carried 40 yards to the five (Continued on page seven) Friday and Saturday Night Tickets at S.U. or at the Door LAMONT SMITH, swift sophomore cross country runner, was as tired as. he looked above after covering the five-mile golf course and finished on the Beaver Field track. Smitty had just bucked the wind and Army's undefeated team to win with the good time of 26:35.4. Red Hollen and Jim Hamill came in behind Smitty to help give the Lions a 21-35 victory which snapped the Cadets un beaten string. Cadets Running Streak Snapped By 21-35 Loss An era of unparalleled cross-country running ended for Army Saturday afternoon on the Beaver Field course. After going through three consecutive unbeaten seasons and running up an amazing st: out a loss, the Cassions were spunky Penn State distance team. It was the Cadet’s first loss of the 1952 campaign against three wins, while State’s log now reads 2-0. With the exception of' one point, the Lion’s conquest was a carbon copy of Army’s feat last fall. At that time, State’s hill and-dale squad had run up a string of nine consecutive dual victories until the West Pointers stymied their running attack, 22-35, over the Hudson course. Paced by sophomore Lamont Smith, the Blue and White thin clads pressed the Soldiers throughout the entire five-mile race and claimed the victory on the basis of gaining first, second, third, sixth, and ninth place. Army won fourth, fifth, seventh, eighth, and eleventh place to ac count for its 35 tallies. Despite a strong wind as he was running -the second and fourth mile, Smith set a terrific pace to lead the flock across the finish line in 26.35.4 —his fastest clock ing this season.
