PAGE TWO Lions Are Forty Million to View Nittanies In Quest of Win Number Four PHILADELPHIA, Pa•--Still smarting from the wounds of two straight defeats, Penn State moves into Franklin Field here today to battle Pennsylvania's winless Quakers in tele vision's game of the week. The Lions-20-point favorites in this one—will be going after their fourth win of the season while Sebo's Red and Blue eleven is searching for its first victory. Over 40 million fans, including an expected 45,000 here at the huge stadium, will watch these two teams battle in the 43rd game of a long and colorful rivalry. Game time is 2 p.m. Rip Engle's gridders, burning mad after dropping two straight games to West Virginia and Texas Christian, will be out to avenge a 13-7 defeat handed them by the Quakers in last year's game. Have Lost Nine But there are some who believe that the Quakers are far from dead. Th e downtrodden Ivy Leaguers have lost nine games in a row now, including five last season. But they have shown oc casional spurts of life in losing causes against Duke, William & Mary, Princeton, George Washing ton, and Navy. Statistically the Lions have the edge. They outweigh Penn on the line-210 to 205—and match them in the backfield. And of course, they get an edge when seasonal records are compared. Lineup Changes However, recurring" injuries in the Penn State camp may force a change in the expected Penn State lineup. Ron Younker, who injured his shoulder against TCU, may be forced to sit this one out, and Bill Straub still hasn't recovered from a leg ailment that has kept him under wraps for two weeks. Should the pair of backs be un able to start, that would bring in sophomore halfback Billy Kane, and fullback Frank Della Penna. Otherwise the Lion starting lineup will probably remain un changed. • Moore Biggest Threat As usual hope will be resting heavily on the explosive ball tot ing of halfback Lenny Moore, probably the best back in the east and a hot contender for All-Amer ican honors this year. Moore needs just 28 yards today to break his own best total of 601, set last year. Sebo, the former Michigan State aid, will be making some lineup changes himself this week, but not because of injuries. Slumping halfback Walt Hynoski has been benched in an effort to shake the Quakers out of their losing habits. Bob Lebengood will move into the lineup at halfback. Hyland Leads Penn Sebo's biggest hopes lie in the person of Neil Hyland, a sopho more halfback who has kept the Penn "multiple" offense from falling to pieces completely this season. He has over 200 yards rushing in five games. The Lions arrived here last night by train after a light work out at Beaver Field yesterday af ternoon. The 38-man squad is staying at the Warwick hotel. This grid series began back in 1890 and since then Penn has won 25 of the 42 games played, while the Lions have come up with 13 victories. Four games end in ties.

James Grace Stewart Kelly "REAR WINDOW" By DICK McDOWELL Lion Booters Harriers Two undefeated records will be laid on the line and tested when Army tangles with Penn State's soccer squad at noon. today. The Black Knights from the banks of the Hudson sport a 4-0-1 record, compared to the Nittany Lions' 4-0 card. Penn State Coach Ken Hosterman will stick with the same lineup which has paced the Lions in crushing four Gpponents— Bucknell, 14-1; Maryland, 5-1; Syracuse, 9-2; and Colgate, 6-0. The Lions also hold a win over Sampsr Ai F- B - dr hF - military squad, 18-2. The front line for Penn State will be molded by five lettermen, all of whom have scored at least one goal this season. Center forward Dick Packer, a junior, leads the offensive parade of scoring with 13 goals; Captain Jack Pinezich, outside left, is sec ond with eight. Dick Matacia, in side left, has five goals. Mert Springer and Joe Mijares—both playing the right side of the line —have two each. Substitute line man Tom Nute, a sophomore, has three tallies. Penn State's powerful scoring attack has stacked up 34 goals in four games—an average of bet ter than eight goals a game. The Sampson Air Force score has not been tallied in any of the above statistics. On the defense Penn State has been equally as strong, allowing only four goals. Two of these goals, however, were scored when play-calling tactics by the Lions' defensive net ran afoul. Defense Outstanding Pullbacks Paul Dierks, a four year man on the Lions' soccer squad, and Galen Robbins, a let terman, have coupled their defen sive talents with junior goalie George Geczy to handcuff the op ponents' scoring drive when they penetrate Lion territory. Dierks, Robbins, and Geczy combined their efforts against Colgate—the first team that ac tually put the pressure on the Lions for most of the game—by knotting each of the Raider's at tempts to score. But three other men have been instrumental in not only the Lions' defensive strength, but also the scoring barrage. Halfbacks Ihor Stelynk and Gerry Gillispie—both lettermen—and sophomore Steve Flamporis, who is the only regu lar who is not a letterman, have plagued the opponents' with a two-way effectiveness. Army Wins 4 Army comes to the Lion Cam pus boasting wins over Ithaca, 2-1, RPI, 3-0, University of Con necticut, 2-0, Penn, 3-1, and tie with West Chester Teachers, 2-2.

Sowell Paces Pitt Pitt; paced by sensational Arnie Sowell, has come a long way in the past few seasons.
