TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1953 Pre-Season Soccer Scrimmages Begin The rains visited the' Nittany campus yesterday,.as but they couldn't dampen the spirits of Coach Ken Hosterman and his soccer squad. The rain soaked golf course proved to be a treacherous field as Hosterman conducted a full scrimmage. A sharp eye was kept by the new mentor as he looked for promising sophomores, up from last year's freshman squad The ten veterans from Bill Jef- 1 * * * frey's squad of last year, were also under close surveillance as Hosterman looked for promising signs of pre-season progress in timing and teamwork. Sophomores Improving SeveralsoPhomores have caught the eye of Hosterman. Ihor Stel nyck, Frank Shaw, Dick Packer, and Dick Matacio, among others; have, been showing continual im provement. Shaw and Stelnyck, along with Ralph Hoffman, a jun ior, have been playing at the halfback slots Hosterman, who recently re -placed Bill Jeffrey_ as soccer coach, has not only played the game, but he also has come from a long line of soccer "greats." "Woody" .Hosterman played for State during 1934, 1935, and 1936. A' second brother, Walt, not only played during 1939, 1940, and 1941, but he was also Captain of the Nittany soccer eleven. He was picked as an All-American during 1940, and 1941. ,Second All-American 0 n e All-American wasn't enough for the Hosterman clan, as brother Ralph earned his All- American award in 1949, '5O. He also played during 1947, and '4B, and captained the team in his senior year. Ken, however, had his soccer prowess halted during this sophomore year when he broke his leg after playing for the freshinan squad during his first year at State. Villanova Head Is Busy Football Man NEW YORK, Sept. 21 (. 1 1") Probably the busiest man in col lege football today is Ambrose F. (Dud) Dudley, Villanova's new director of athletics. It was a Dudley idea that drew 97,800 spectators to the Villanova- Georgia football game in Philadel phia's Municipal Stadium last Saturday night. Last year the Philadelphia Wildcats' home at tendance at three games averaged less than 10,000. "The first thing I did," Dudley told writers, "was to sell blocks of tickets to various large busi ness concerns on the basis of two tickets for the price of one. That sold approximately 20,000 tickets. "Then came the idea of selling some 40,000 tickets to a super market, which used the tickets as a bonus to purchasers of $lO worth of foodstuffs. In three days we sold, not 40,000, but 60,000 tickets." Since Saturday night he has re ceived telephone calls, telegrams and letters from colleges all over the country asking for informa tion on the supermarket-Villa nova tieup.
