Ready to Serve You 9 a.m. to 9 p.m PHONE 31 STATE COLLEGE Sports Thru The Lion's By JAKE HIGHTON Collegian Sports Editor The crowd loves a winner. It may be a cliche, but 100,000 French men or football fans can't be wrong. If Penn State's football record of five wins, two losses, and one tie .doesn't prove that the season has been a winning one, then attendance figures do. In four home games this year, Beaver Field has had 91,584 lookers-on—a new Penn State four-game record. With at least 10,000 raccoon coats, plaid hats, and/or hip flasks certain to be found in Beaver Bowl this afternoon, a Penn State all-time home attendance figure is• bound to soar over the 100,000 mark for the first time in Nittany history. Although this season is the first in 21 years that State has had a ten-game schedule, the calculations of Ike Gilbert, graduate man ager of athletics, show that the new four game total smashes the previous high of 82,835 set in 1949. (The year the Beaver Field seating capacity was doubled to its present saturation point of 30,000.) Further proof of a winning year in the Nittany Valley is the fact that Penn State attendance has set records despite the Asso ciated Press report which quoted Eastern attendance figuers to be down 7.1 percent from last year. Should State beat Rutgers today, it will be the first time since 1948 that the Lions have won more than five games in one season. Rutgers—who started the whole bloody mess of play-warfare against the Princeton scholars in 1869—had been considered the lone "breather" on the Nittany card last September. But it is typical of every foe State has met this year, that Rutgers is - up" and at its peak with a three-game winn!ng streak. Despite State's heavy favorites role, this one should be as close as the last two meetings between the - schools. The last time the Queensmen trekked to Beaver Bowl, a pair of backs named Jim Monahan and Bob D'Amato nearly ran State off the field before bowing, 13-14. This year's story could well be one of passing the Lions out of their own bailiwick. Look for tailback Jack Jeffers and his pasiing from the Southwest Conference passing formation, the spread. to make the game tight—if not break it. A Rutgers team which has scored at least once in its last' 68 ball games and which tallied 33 points in one quarter against Temple, cannot easily be written off. What will be particularly interesting to watch about today's game is the Nittany offense. Has its early-season potency folded? Playing against Nebraska, Michigan State, Penn, and Syracuse in order—a big order—it was bound to be held down. Today should tell whether the Lions are really as good as they appeared to be or whether they were winning on raw courage and indomitable spirit. The only time Rutgers was successful in the three previous games of the series was the first meeting in 1918. That year Rutgers' equally famous singer and All-American end, Paul Robeson, led the Scarlet to a 26-3 triumph. *** • * It must be encouraging to IC4A cross country runners to know they don't have to face Army's Dick Shea this Monday. The guy was practically unbeatable in collegiate distance running circles and his third straight championship effort last year .in 24:55.1 was the fastest New York's Van Cortlandt Park course had ever been traveled by heart-propulsion. Only Cornell's John Paul Jones. between 1910-1912, and NYU's great Les Mac Mitchell, between 1939-41, had ever won an IC triple crown.
