But to Nittany Assistant Coach Sever Toretti, passing has been the biggest factor in the Quakers’ success. Tor, who has been scoui Walt Hynoski the Quakers ] what Michigan State passing did to the Lions. Backing up Tor are statistics which show that Adams has hit on 28 of 55 passes for 439 yards and two touch downs. Hynoski has been good with 12 throws in 42 attempts for 467 yards and four TD’s. . On the receiving end of the' Quaker passing are two favo rites, end Ed Bell and wingback Bobby Deuber. Bell, an All- American candidate, has caught 12 passes good for 257 yards and two touchdowns.

Adams and Hynos ki pass to these receivers on the run if they don’t decide to run. Tor says they haven’t done much running so far but have the po tential to be a threat on the ground. Although nearly 80 per cent a single-wing team, the Quakers will occasionally use the T with Ed Binkowski under center. Bin kowski quarterbacked Penn’s un beaten frosh team in 1950 which used the T. Tor calls the second offensive strength of the Quakers the full back spot. Here both Joe Varaitis and Don Zimmer have been con sistent ground gainers. Operat ing out of a buck-lateral series, both big lads have been respon sible for nearly 500 yards on the ground in five games. Defensively, the Quakers have allowed an average of only one touchdown a game, and the rea son can be seen by the fact that Tor cannot “single out one per former without doing an injus tice to the others.” Three of the standouts have been Bell, a nearly 60 minute man; tackle For Spaghetti Our T hursday Speciality CAMPUS RESTAURANT r».-- ;ing Penn, says that in tailbacks Glenn “Bones” Adams and >ose a strong aerial threat especially in looking back at 9 Independent Teams Post Bdsketball Victories The IM Basketball season got off to a fast start last night as 18 teams battled for that all important game—the opener.

This observation was made by Nittany Soccer-Coach Bill Jeffrey after the Lion booters’ 2-0 victory over a mediocre Colgate soccer squad last Saturday, in which the State offense could not capitalize Fireballs, MO Win in 9M Grid ‘ Both defending champions of the fraternity and independent' leagues, Alpha Tau Omega and the Fireballs, advanced into the semi-f ina 1 s in the intramural touch-football tournaments last night when they registered their fourth victories of the season.

This was not only the case in last week’s.. Red Raider match, but also was evident. in the Lions’ loss to Navy, where they missed numerous scoring chances and could manufacture only two goals. - Jeffrey, however, has no qualms about the ’ impenetrable Nittany defense, which has given up only four goals—an average of one per game. , The State defense should cause the Cadets plenty of trouble, as it has had only one bad showing to date—the Navy tilt when the Middies scored three goals. To date the Nittany booters have ac counted for ..two whitewash -jobs, one against Maryland and the other at the expense of Colgate last week. . Jeffrey hopes to be able to field his entire team strength Saturday against the Cadets. Hubie Kline, however, who is still limping from a bad" leg injury incurred, the sec ond week of the season in a team scrimmage, may not be to play. Kline saw a few minutes’ action last Saturday against the Raiders, but was removed from the game because of his bad limp. Same Starting Lineup Hap Irvin, who sustained an infected heel in the Colgate game, will probably be fit for action against the Cadets Saturday morn ing. Jeffrey intends to stick with his usual eleven men who have won three matches and lost only one. The brunt of the Lion attack will be carried by center forward Jack Pinezich, outside right Bill Nor cik, and outside left Lynn Tho mann. Pinezich, who will be seeking •his twelfth goal of the season in the Cadet clash, has averaged 2.8 goals per game. He has been held scoreless only by Navy. Wins Scholarship Edward P.'
