Lions Lose Tight Gome
To Navy Soccerrrien, 3-2
Norcik Tallies
Twice as Lions
Drop Ist Game
By 808 SCHOELLKOPF
A spirited Navy soccer tehm
continued its mastery over
Penn State as it eked out a
3-2 upset over the Lion hoot
ers Saturday morning on the
baseball field.'-'lt was State’s
first loss -in three soccer
matches this season.
Navy’s booters, obvio u s 1 y
charged up for the contest with
the Lions, pulled the game out
of the coals with a goal in the
dying moments of the game by
outside right Bob Bicknell.
Norcik Offensive Star
State’s offense, stalled tempor
arily during the first period,, came
to life in the second stanza as
the Lions began to pummel Navy
goalie Fred Judd with blasts from
every direction. The Middie goal
tender, who played a marvelous
defensive game, repelled the
shots one after another —except
for a blast, by Lion outside right
Bill Norcik, who rifled the ball
into the net at 21:15 for the Nit
tanies’ initial score.
Norcik was the shining light .as
far as the Lion offense was con
cerned, accounting for both Penn
State goals. His second pointer
came in the third period and
placed the Lion booters in a tem
porary 2-2 deadlock, which was
as close to victory as the Jeffrey
men came all day. This tying
goal came 'in the last few seconds
of play in the third frame.
State's Offense Below Par
The Middie booters, coached
by Floyd “.Glenn” Warner,
seemed to be content with the tie
score, since they were playing a
deliberate defensive type game
throughout much of the last per
iod. However, with only a minute
and three seconds left in the
game. Navy'shook its right wing
man, Bicknell, in the open, and
he promptly slammed the ball
into the net for the necessary
margin of victory.
Despite the final outcome, the
Lions didn’t show badly. Their
offense wasn’t the same menacing
machine it was in the two pre
vious tilts, in which they piled up
21 goals, but the keyed-up Navy
defense was blocking hard shots
all day. The toe of Jack Pinezich,
which had accounted for nine
points in two matches, was boot
ing with its usual power, but
faulty direction and a fine de
fensive Navy goalie prevented
the Brooklyn-born youth from
registering.
Middies Dominate Play
In the first period the Lions’
defense bogged down for a while
when the Midshipmen surprised
the, Homecoming Day crowd by
scoring two goals that put them
ahead, 2-0.
During this period almost all
of the play centered in the Lions’
section of the field, except for a
few fine kicks by Hap Irvin and
Paul Dierks, Lion fullbacks,
which sent the. Middies tempor
arily reeling back into their own
territory. ;
Navy’s two first-period goals
were scored by Captain Glenn
Wilson ,at 16:03, and by Fred
Knops at 20:16.
The Nittany defense settled
down after the first-period splurge
by Navy and held the Middies to
a standstill until the fatal last
minute of the contest. State’s of
fense blasted 37 shots into Navy’s
lap, while the Middies could
manage only 12,

scoring a 3-2 upset.
Future Foe
Two of Penn State’s future football foes, Michigan State and
Penn, remained among the unbeaten elevens in the nation by post
ing wins Saturday. Pitt continued to show surprising power with its
win over Army, while Syracuse and Rutgers were on the short end
of their scores. >
Michigan State, Penn State's next foe, jolted Syracuse, 48-7.
The nationally first-r anked
Spartans registered their 19th
successive win, the biggest col
lege win streak in the naiioh
today, and their fourth victory
of the season.
The loss was handed to Syra
cuse not only by the Spartans’
brilliant first team running back
field, but the speedy and pin
point passing of the second and
third string backs. The Spartans
scored on the opening kickoff
when Bob Leberman was tackled
by a host of Michigan State play
ers in his end zone to give the
Spartans a safety. Michigan State
then went on to score at least
two TD’s in each period but the
final quarter. The Spartans were
able to hit paydirt only once in
the last quarter.
Safetyman Jim Ellis scampered
59 yards down the sidelines on .a
punt return for the longest run
of the day and the Spartans’
first score.
A couple of hometown boys
saved the day for Penn, which
had to come from behind to beat
Columbia, 27-17.-" The boys are
Walt Hynoski and Glenn( Bones)
Adams, both of Mt. Carmel. They
passed for three of the Red and
Blue touchdowns and helped to
set up the fourth.
Eddie Binkoski gathered a
nine yard pass from Hynoski in
the second period for Penn's
initial score. He then success
fully completed a forward to
Ed Bell who faked his on-rush
ing secondaries for the second
score. This play covered 60
yards.
Columbia’s Ed Price passed to
two of its TD’s. A 1 Ward put
Columbia ahead with an 18-yard
field goal in , the third quarter.
In the fourth quarter Adams took
to the air, passing to Columbia’s
1-yard line. Don Zimmer plunged
.over for the score. The victory
was insured when Adams com-

pleted a nine yard pass to Bill
Deuber in the end zone with 76
seconds remaining in the game.
Hynoski and Adams have passed
six out of eight touchdowns made
by Penn in its four games.
Winless Rutgers again saw its
first win get away ,by pass in
terceptions and costly fumbles.
The Dartmouth Indians admin
istered Rutgers a 29-20 defeat.
Rutgers had Dartmouth's score .
cut to 15-13 at halftime; how
ever, the Indians added two
TD's in the third period.
Pitt mustered a 22-0 lead going
in to the fourth quarter,- then
coasted to a 22-14 win over Army.
The Panthers clinched their vic
tory when Paul Chess plunged
what appeared to be simple full
back drive play. But when he
neared the line, he handed off to
Rudy Matioli who spun and slip
ped the ball into Billy Reynolds’
hands. Reynolds scooted around
the end for 26 yards and a score.
Dick Boyle’s passing aided Army
to tally in the final period.
Harriers --

yards in front of second-running
Hollen.
Hollen was running strong and
cut the final distance down to
about 20 yards.
Nittanies finishing but not
figuring in the final score were
John Chillrud, 10th; Skip Slocum,
15th; Austin, 17th; Roessler, 18th;
Jim Cressman, 20th; Bob Geh
man, 21st; and Doug Weiss, 22d.

DU's, 'Cudas, K Sigs
Nail Down Victories
A pair of fraternities and an independent squad posted top
heavy first-time-out wins in the 1952 IM swimming tournament
yesterday at the Glennland Pool. ,
Delta Upsilon, losing only two firsts and two thirds, swept by
outclassed Phi Sigma Delta, 29-12, while DU neighbors Kappa Sigma
ousted Kappa Delta Rho by an
even greater score, 32-8.
A steady Barracuda outfit
romped by Dorm 25' in independ
ent action, 27-10. The. Barracudas
took everything except one first,
a second and a pair of thirds.
The DUs trailed Phi Sigma Del
ta only once in their dual meet.
Howard Schwartz, who collected
two first for the losers in a slightly
fruitless cause, paddled in with a
34.6 time in the 60-yard free style,
ahead of DU’s Jerry Maurey and
Bob Decker. That put the Phi Sig
Delts ahead temporarily, 5-4
It was all over but the shouting
after Kay Vinson and Johnny
Sherk, Delta Upsilcin, finished
one-two in the 60-yard backstroke.
Vinson’s winning time was 50.4.
Delta, Upsilon was never headed
after that point.
Mush Dawsey and John Gable
took second and third in the 60-
yard breaststrokes, for Delta Up
silon behind Schwartz, who picked
up his second first of the day.
Winning time was, 43.8.
The DU relay foursome of Deck
er, Bud Nicholson, Sherk, and
Maurey made the 120-yard relay

yard line but again Nebraska was
immovable at the goal line.
Back the play swirled with (the
Huskers staging a sustained march
to the Nittany 10 where Bailey
intercepted a Bordogna pass in
the end zone with only 20 seconds
left to the half,
Opening the second half, State
pounded relentlessly goalward
once again, only to be frustrated
on the three-yard line. Bailey
took a punt from his 40 to the
Husker 45. Rados tossed to full
back Pete Shopa who galloped
to the Husker 30. Pete picked up
seven on a crossbuck. Here Leon
ard exercised his leg while fak
ing a field goal, and his holder
Jones scooted around end to the
11 and a FD. The Lions simply
could not move against the finest
line, they have met all year and
lost the ball inches shy of a FD
on the 3.
The next opportunity wasn’t
muffed. With a first down a mid
field, halfback Buddy Rowell
burst through the previously
solid line on a delayed trap play
and streaked outside to the Hus
ker 28. With Rowell and Shopa
alternating on mail carrying duty
and Yukica taking a Rados pass,
State had a FD on the five. Shopa
dove-tackled for 2. Then with a
virtual 11-man line facing him,
Rados hit the big hands of Ar

a good 1:07.8 clocking. DU’s Mau

DU tally-sheet with a one-two
sweep in the diving.
Elliott Smith and Harvey Cook,
Kappa Sigma, each accounted for
eight points apiece to pace the
swamping of KDR. Smith free
styled his way home first with a
38.8. timing and picked up a sec
ond in the diving. Cook copped
diving honors and managed a sec

Both Smith and Cook took turns
on the relay crew and along with
mates George Bortle and A 1 Og
den won the relay with a 1:15.5
time. Tom Goldsworthy took a
Kappa Sig first in the backstroke
with a 54.4 effort.
Barracuda George Vasley turned
in the second best time for the
breaststroke of the young swim
season (40.8) during the ’Cuda win
over Dorm 25. Bruce Witmer

backstroke for the Barracudas.
Dorm 25’s Pete Lang copped the
diving for the loser’s only first.

made good on his 14th out of 16
for a 7-0 lead.
Starting the fourth period,
State became a little more the
opportunists. Nebraska center
Bob Oberlin passed his second
errant center over the head of his
kicker and State had a first down
on the visitors’ 24.. Rados to Yu
kica' went to the seven and Jones
behind pulling-guard interference
off-tackled to the seven-yard line.
Again failing to go all the way,
Leonard kicked a high, hard one
from Jones’ hands on the 16-yard
line through the stiff wind for a
10-0 lead with eight minutes left
to play.
Still squirming thanks to the
sparkling pressure running of Bor
dogna from the spread formation,
Nebraska got one more head of
steam underway. With a FD on
the State 38, Green spilled Bor
dogna trying to pass and one
play later stopped Jim Cederdahl
cold with a sensational driving
tackle. Rosey Grier slowed a
George Gifra line smash and the
other Nittany forwards stacked
the Husker up to halt the drive
and take home the football.
Bill Jeffrey’s Penn State soccer
team rolled up 21 goals in its
first two games this season.
