To Down Rutgers
NSW BRUNSWICK, N. J. —Penn State’s third-rated football team in the East arrived
here yesterday with its all-America passing combination—Co-captain Tony Rados and end
Jim Garrity, hoping to break a jinx against Rutgers University. That is winning only by
a touchdown or mere extra point against a team which goes into games against the Nit
tany Lions more than 20 point underdogs.
Kickoff time is set for 2 p.m.
On comparative records, the Nittany Lions should have little trouble handling the
hard-pressed Rutgers University squad, which has won only two of six starts. But the records
go out the window when these two teams collaborate.
Quarterback Rados and end
Garrity wili be ready .to rewrite
the Penn State records. Especially
it the field is in condition for a
passing game. The Slingshot from
Steelton, Pa., is looking for his
ninth touchdown via the air. He
is one short of the mark.
On the other hand, Garrity is
seven short of the record set by
Jesse Arnelle. The pass-snatching
end has caught 26 this season.

in the East—Rados-Garritv —will

be put to a test once more si:
Coach Harvey Harman developed
a “stingy” pass defense. Las 1
week against Lafayette, his de
fensive unit held the latter col
lege to a mere 24 yards in pass
ing all afternoon. At the same
time, quarterback Johnny Fen
nell unleashed a passing attack
of his own. This was the first
time that the Scarlet have shown
any brilliance through the air.
One drawback, however, is that
indications from the Rutgers
camp show that quarterback Fen
nell, reinjured his back in last
Saturday’s battle against Lafay
ette. He was expected to be Ra
dios’ passing competition,
Don Dreier is most likely to
succeed Fennell in the T-slot but
pint-sized Ron Mastrolia, 150-
pound halfback, probably will see
action there, too.
Harman, who has employed the
T-formation for the past seven
seasons, will work several varia
tions into his offensive pattern.
He will also play from the single
wing as the adaptability- of Rut
gers material permits.
For the past two seasons, Har
man has occasionally utilized the
“Deep-T” formation, which places
the fullback deep. From that po
sition, the fullback can pass, kick,
or run. His triple-threat at the
fullback slot is Captain Don Dun
can. However, a halfback, An
gelo lannucci, will start the game
at that position.
The variations from the T are
the split-T aiid wingea-T. That
latter will be used by Penn State.
Defensively, Rutgers has an
off-the-line defense. It is designed
mainly to confuse the opponents
blocking assignments.
Carruthers Keeps Title

Carruthers, a slick dancer from
Australia, held his title by a de

Athletic Advisory Board
Cats Special Award Plan
Plans compiled by a student committee for special athletic awards
have been submitted to the Athletic Advisory Board by Dean Ernest
B. McCoy, athletic director.
The proposal calls for a replica of the Lion Statue and an eight
inch silver loving cup to be given to varsity letter winners and the
coaches of teams that compile un
defeated seasons, or teams and
individuals who win special dis
tinction in their sports.
After a thorough discussion it
was thought advisable that the
secretary make a study of the past
five years to determine the num
ber of athletes such a plan would
affect and the probable cost of
getting it under way.
The Lion Statue Trophy will
be given to coaches and members
of undefeated teams in the twelve
varsity sports: football, cross
country, soccer, track, basketball,
gymnastics, wrestling, boxing,
baseball, golf, tennis and lacrosse.
Players will receive the statues
in football and soccer if a bowl
invitation is accepted and the sil
ver cups if a bowl contest is won.
Cross-country and track squad
members would be given statues
for IC4A championships and lov
ing cups for NCAA titles.
Lion statues for eastern champs
and cups for NCAA title-holders
would be presented to members of
the gymnastics, wrestling, boxing,
golf, and tennis teams,
An invitation to the NCAA
tournament will give the basket
ball players a statue while, for a
victory in the tourney, they will
be honored with individual cups.
Baseball and lacrosse players will
earn statues for district crowns
and silver cups for NCAA victor
ies.
Individual eastern champs and
“All East” players will also be
eligible for the Lion Statue tro
phy, while individual National

champs and “All-Americans” will
receive the eight-inch silver lov
ing cup. No man may be given
more than one team and one indi
vidual award in one sport per
year.
This plan is to be retroactive to
September, 1952. Therefore sev
eral teams would already be in
line for trophys. Since then the
gymnastic squad has added an
eastern and a NCAA champion
ship, the wrestling team has done
likewise, the boxing team sports
two eastern champs, and the golf
ers posted an undefeated cam
paign.

punch, sped to what Werner
termed the “fastest three miles
ever run by any Penn Staters.”
Their times were 14:45 and 14:47.
Besides Chillrud, Pastorius,
Smith and Hollen, Werner will
take Ted Garrett, Jim Hamill and
Doug Moorhead on the trip. Wer
ner said that he was “very
pleased” with the. results of the
handicap race.
Fourth Last Year
The harriers will leave early
this morning for the 45th annual
IC4A championship race which
will be held Monday in N.Y. on
Van Cortlandt Park’s five-mile
layout. Penn State last copped
the title in 1950-51. Last year the
hill-and-dalers finished fourth.
Several sources have tabbed the
Lions as the team to beat. Wer
ner, however, pointed to Syracuse,
which placed third last year, as
the top threat. Noting that the
Orangemen have turned in better
times than the Lions, Werner said,
“Syracuse has the ultimate judge
—the stop watch—in its favor.”
Spartans, Panthers, Threats
Michigan State must- also be
considered one of tie top con
tenders, since they won the Big
Ten title run yesterday for the
third consecutive yea:’. The Spar
tans have been improving with
each meet and seem to he “very
much in the running.” Pitts
burgh’s Panthers have gone
through an undefeated campaign
and bear watching. Although they
have been virtually overlooked,
the Panthers have demonstrated
almost unbelievably good balance,
taking the top five slots in all
but one of nine meets.
Smith and Hollen are two of
the top contenders for the indi
vidual championship, Ray Oster
hout of Syracuse, who finished
second last year, is the favorite.
Lyle Garbe of Michigan State,
Joe Barry of Villanova and Jim
Byrne of St. John’s are also stand
out threats.
Lions Undefeated
During the regular season the
Lions bowled'over four opponents
without a loss. Smith finished
first, or tied for first, in each;
meet, hitting his peak in a r tri
angular meet at Annapolis where
he set a new course record. Hol
len’s worst showing- came when
he placed second in the meet with
the Middies and Georgetown. He
was still hampered by an injured
foot at the time. Moorhead, the
third member of “the Nitt.any
Triple-Trouble-Trio, fell below
first place only once. This oc
curred when he placed fourth at
the Naval Academy,
The Lions will finish the "-cam
paign on Nov. 23 at East Lansing,
Mich., when they compete in the
NCAA rim for the roses.
