Booters Host Quakers Today;
Wernermen Seek NCAA Title
Six Seniors
Play final
Soccer Game
By ROY WILLIAM^
Six senior soccermen will
play the final match of their
college soccer career today,
when the Lions host Pennsyl
vania on the baseball practice
field.
The three men of Penn
State’s defensive basis Red
Harris, goalie, Hap Irvin, full
back, and captain, and fullback
Emil Borra—will be lost after to
day’s contest.
Both wings. Hubie Kline, out
side left, and Bill Norcik, outside
right, will leave a noticeable hole

season. Ralph Hoffman, halfback,
will also be playing his final game
for the Lions.
Hosterman, however, will not
only be looking for his team’s
fifth win in seven starts, but will
also be gunning for his first vic
tory over Penn as a coach. Penn’s
mentor, Charles Scott, who is
presently in his tenth season as
soccer coach at Penn, will also
be planning to take his first vic
tory from the Lions.
The Nittany defense may be
the downfall for the Red and Blue
today. In six contests, the Lions
have posted three shutouts, while
Penn has only been able to hold
one of its eight opponents score
less.
Game for game, Penn State’s
offense has also proven to be more
pentrating than the Quakers. The
Lions have 20 goals in six games,
while Penn has'netted 25 in eight
tilts.
Hosterman said that he expected
to start his usual eleven.
“Penn is capable of giving us
some trouble,” Hosterman com
mented, “but it has never beaten
State in soccer, and I hope the
first time won’t be today.”
Mack Celebrates 91st
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 20 (JP)—
For the 91st time a birthday cake
was admired and then eaten in
honor of Connie Mack, the fabu
lous figure of baseball. But Mr.
Mack, who sampled a piece of the
cake himself, made the biggest
fuss over a birthday congratula
tory note from another rather fa
mous sportsman—President Eis

Quaker Captain
Wolfked Is Veteran
Nittany Grid Hustler
Ask any football player and he’ll tell you that sitting on the
bench is not exactly his idea of fun. Wayne.Wolfkeil, Penn State
senior halfback, will go along with his grid colleagues, on that count.
Wayne has played wingback, or '‘x-back” as Coach Rip Engle
calls it in his Winged-T setup. Competition for the starting berth at
this spot was uncommonly keen
[during the past two years, as Bob
Pollard, Keith Vesting, and Wolf
keil battled for the position. Con
sequently, Wolfkeil spent much
time viewing proceedings from
the bench
This year, however, the “fun”
really started. Sophomore Ron
Younker, in addition to Wolfkeil,
Vesling and Don Eyer have com
peted for the job. With Younker,
one of |he pleasant surprises in
the Lion camp, playing most of
the time, the other three have
taken a back seat.
Suffers Injury
If an injury had not sprung up,
there is no telling how high up
Wayne would have been in En
gle's plans this year. Slated to
start the Boston U. game, Wolf
keil suffered a recurrence of a
fractured nose cartilage, which
originally occurred before the
season.
Nevertheless, he is the kind of
player indispensable to any team,
the type who when called upon
can do a good job and who keeps
the regulars on their toes with
his spirit and drive. This is im
portant to any team. Especially
with the return of the one-platoon
system.
Wolfkeil started his athletic
career at Hanover Township High
School just outside Wilkes-Barre,
where he played basketball, base
ball, and the grid sport. His high
school grid team used both the
single wing and the T. Wolfkeil
was a versatile performer and
played both quarterback and half
back.
At the University, Wolfkeil is a

member of advanced Air. Force
ROTC. During the summer, along
many other ROTC men, he
attended summer camp. Among
those at his McGuire Air Base in
New Jersey, was Bob Leberman,
Syracuse halfback, who faced
Wolfkeil and. his Lion teammates
last month on Beaver Field.
Wolfkeil lives downtown with
his wife Ann who served 17
months in the WACS. They are
both enrolled in the School of
Business.
There is no one point in ‘Wolf
keil’s grid career that he recalls
above any other. He admits, how
ever, that a second straight win
over Pitt today at Pittsburgh
would be something to remember.
“I think we’re ready to play a
good game against the Panthers,”
he said.
The Lions in some circles are
six-point underdogs this week
end. But if the football' predictors
are in their season-long form,
Wolfkeil and his Lion teammates
should be a happy bunch tonight.

Dispute Takers
Before Frick
NEW YORK, Nov. 20 OR)—The
New York Yankees today turned
over the case of the disputed sign
ing of an 18-year-old Chelsea,
Okla., pitcher to Commissioner
Ford Frick.
Both the Yankees and St. Loun
Cardinals reported they had sign
ed Ralph Terry, a former' high
school star yesterday.
Lee MacPhail, Yank farm direc
tor, reported receipt of a wire yes
terday from the boy and his moth
er. The Yanks sent a confirming
wire. The young righthander was
to report to the Yarik camp at St.
Petersburg, Fla.
Ferrell Andy Anderson, man
ager of the Cards’ Omaha club of
the Western League, said last
night that Terry signed a Card
contract and received $4,000 for
signing.
Fain May Switch
Perris Fain, two-time batting
title winner, 1951 and 1952, may
be switched to the outfield by
the Chicago White Sox next
spring.
J. Paul Slicedy* Switched to Wildroot Cream-Oil
Because He Flunked The Finger-Nail Test
C>
"Your hair’s no yoko" bellowed SReedy’s gal. “Those cowlicks look awful.
Why not take the bull by the horns and get yourself some Wildroot
Cream-Oil, America’s favorite hair tonic? Keeps hair combed without
greasiness. Hakes yod look cud-dly. Removes loose, ugly
dandruff. Relieves annoying dryness. Contains Lanolin.
Non-alcoholic. I won’t cow-tow ’til you start using it
heifery day.” Paul was udderly stunned, so he bought
some Wildroot Cream-Oil for just 29<. He told his girl
the good moos and now they're hitched for life. So just
steer yourself down to any toilet goods counter for a
bottle or handy tube. And remember to ox your barber
for Wildroot Cream-Oil too. You’ll be the cream of
the campus—and that’s no bull.
