What Does the. Future Hold !
COACH KEN.HOSTERMAN, newly appointed soccer mentor, and
Jack Pinezich are probably wondering what the coming season
will hold for them. The Nittanies will open Oct. 3 with the Buck
nell Bisons on the latter's field. Pinezich, one of ten veterans
returned from last year, set an individual record last year by
scoring 23 markers in one season's competition.
Sports Staff
Vs. Grid Coaches
In Annual Contest
It would be rare indeed, for a
sportswriter to neglect a fling at
football predicting this season.
With the new one-platOon rule in
effect, everybody is venturing a
guess. So, in keeping with tradi
tion the' Daily Collegian sports
staff will once again publish
weekly predictions of top-fea
tured college games.
Also, in keeping with tradition,
the Penn State coaching staff will
enter a contestant each week.
Last year the coaches squeezed
out a season victofy when Al
"Swami" Michaels pulled defeat
out of the fire in the last week of
the season: The coaches hit for an
overall percentage of ~ 595, edg
ing Collegian Sports Editor Jake
Highton, by seven points.
Lion coadh Rip Engle hasn't re
vealed who he plans to send into
the opening contest. The Colleg
ian lineup will show Sam Proco
pio, Dick McDowell, and Herm
Weiskopf competing for top hon
ors.
Grid pickings will be published
every Saturday.

Rocky-Rollie
Title Fight
Tonight
By Associated Press
Rocky Marciano, heavyweight
champion of the world exactly
one year tonight, remained• a solid
4 to 1 favorite to turn 'back the
challenge of ex-collegian Roland
LaStarza tonight before 32,000
fans at the Polo Grounds.
The Polo Grounds, quickly con
verted into a fight stadium after
the New York Giants left home,
will be staffed to take care of a
capacity crowd. However, the
most reliable forecasts call for
about 32,000 and a gross gate of
about $350,000. Jim Norris, IBC
president, said advance receipts
were "over $250,000" with a
chance of ,a final gate of $400,000
or better.
No Heavy Betting
The boxing experts, who might
be expected to be gun shy after
their recent experiences with Ez
zy Charles and Kid Gavilan, were
lined up behind the champ almost
to a man. Few expected the bout
to go the limit. They were highly
respectful of the slugging power
of the swarthy shoemaker's son
from Brockton, Mass.
There was no heavy betting on
the outcome. A few 'underdog
backers were grabbing the long
price. It was 12 to 5 that LaStarza
wouldn't go 15, or even money he
wouldn't last eight and 8 to 1 he
wouldn't knock out Marciano.
Rocky probably will get about
$170,000 for the night'S work •and
LaStarza about $70,000 on a 42%-
17 1 / 2 per cent split.
First Fight in 1950
LaStarza, normally an over
cautious boxer, has been training
at Greenwood Lake, N. Y., as
though• he meant to carry the
fight to the champion. Roland, 26-
year-old son of a Bronx butcher,
still remembers Rocky as a clum
sy slugger with a long. overhand
right.
It was the long right that
dropped LaStarza in their first
meeting Mar c h 24, 1950 when
Marciano won a disputed split
decision.
But Marciano no longer is the
lumbering, awkward puncher
wh6 throws only haymakers.
Baseball's :ig Leagues
By Associated Press
Eddie Lopat proved first for a
world series assignment yester
day, pitching eight-hit ball
through seven innings as the New
York Yankees defeated the Phila
delphia Athletics, 3-1.
The veteran southpaw showed
no effects of his instep injury
suffered last week, as he regis
tered his 16th triumph-'of the sea
son, a victory which boosted his
winning percentage to .800 and
his earned run average to 2.41,
best in the American League. He
has lost only four games..
Bobby Shantz started for the
Athletics, taking his first turn on
the mound since he hurt his
shoulder Aug. 2. He hurled three
innings and made only one mis
take, a fast ball which Don Boll
weg poled into the right field
stands in the second inning to put
the Yankees in front, 1-0.
Morrie Martin relieved Shantz,
Indians Take Second.
The Cleveland Indians clinched
second place in the American

The Indians put together two
singles, a walk and a sacrifice
for a pair of runs in the first in
