PAGE SIX Pitt Coach Shows Defeatist Attitude The Nittany Lions will have their final workout at Beaver Field this afternoon before they get ready for the invasion of Pitt stadium tomorrow in a traditional backyard battle. The Pitt-Penn State games have always been well-played and bitterly fought games, even when there is nothing more at stake than victory itself. Coach Lowell (Red) Dawson of Pitt expressed great surprise and defeatist attitude when he heard that his Panthers were installed as a six-point favorite. “Oh, no!” exclaimed Dawson. “Well, I’ll be darned! Those guys must be crazy. I guess that means we’ll lose.” Soccerrhen Meet Penn Tomorrow A strong Quaker soccer eleven will visit the Nittany squad to morrow, boasting an impressive six and two chart. The Lions will host the Quakers in their final game of the season on the base ball practice field. Pennsylvania, who plays an eleven-game schedule, will meet Cornell on Thanksgiving morning after tangling with Penn State. The Quakers defeated Swarth more, 2-0; Princeton, 4-3; Yale, 3-1; LaSalle, 8-1; and West Ches ter, 2-1. Coach Charles Scott and his hooters also posted a 3-2 win over Navy, but lost to Army 2-1. The Lions also have one of their two losses attributed to the Ca dets, when they were edged, 4-3. Pennsylvania also lost to Haver ford, 3-2. Penn Powerful in Scoring Penn’s drubbing of LaSalle il lustrated the scoring power of its forward line. Bob Hennessy, team captain, scored three goals, two in the third period. Gabor Czako paced the offense when he scored the Quakers’ first tally early in the opening stanza, and ended the scoring at 6:05 of the final period. While Penn’s Hennessy, inside right, and Czako, outside left, were racking up goals, Dario Bru no, right fullback, and Warren Stone, outside right, were also tallying. Penn may be weakened how ever, with the loss of Bruno and Bill Van Eestereen. Stone is also on the doubtful list with an ankle sprain received in the Army game last Saturday. Yarnall Scores Three Another potential scorer for Penn is the center forward, Chuck Yarnall. He tallied three fourth period goals against Navy, en abling the Quakers to cop the match. Czako is high scorer on the team with eight goals in eight games. Hennessy is second in team scoring with four goals. The Lions will be looking for their fifth win in the final game of an originally scheduled nine game card. In six games Penn State has netted 20 goals for an average of four goals a game. Penn has an average of 3.1 goals per game. It has scored 25 in eight games. Fairway Squad Repeats Penn State’s golf team won nine straight to duplicate its un beaten campaign of five years be fore. The Panthers will be out for revenge. It was Coach Kip En gle’s 1952 eleven that halted an Orange Bowl trip for Pitt. The Lions defeated Pitt in the sea son’s finale, 17-0. Coach Dawson’s squad came out of the North Carolina State contest in good shape. End Dick Deitrick, fullback Bobby Epps, and halfback Richie McCabe, who were injured prior to the latter tilt, will be ready for the Lion invasion. They did not see action against the Wolfpack. Eldred Kraemer, who suffered a dislocated shoulder in the Vir ginia' game, is the only unlikely starter for Pitt. The big tackle, an all-American in his sophomore season last year, was said to be out for the rest of the season. However, there are some doubts. Nevertheless, replacements for Kraemer will be Howard Linn, who has been the number one understudy all season, or Glen Tunning. ■ Both candidates are sophomores. Engle’s squad is at full strength for Pitt. The Nittany Lion mentor will need his passing and running attack to click in order to upset the Panthers. In the Lions’ last two outings Engle’s running of fense has spoken louder than his potential passing offense. Engle classified Pitt as “the best team on our schedule with the possible exception of Wiscon sin.” He even went so far as to Lions Gird for NCAA's By HERM WEISKOPF Penn State’s hill-and-dalers are going into their final phase of training for their toughest meet of the season —Monday’s NCAA championship race at East Lan sing, Mich.

The Panthers made two or three mistakes—small mistakes— and Notre Dame capitalized on them. But Pitt carried the fight to the Irish throughout.” an effort to grab a berth on the traveling team. Werner said he would like to take seven competi tors to East Lansing. “But if no one performs well enough in the workout I’ll have to take just the top five,” Werner explained. In Monday’s 45th running of the IC4A title race Hollen placed third, Smith fifth, Moorhead 23rd, Garrett 33rd, and Hamill 48th. Hollen and Smijh ran the two fastest times ever recorded by Penn Staters in IC4A competi tion. Their times of 24:59 and 25:18 paced the Lions to a third place finish.
