SityrUpdrie, iNCAIEIVABER 1954 Rooters Lions Seek Undefeated Campaign By' ROY 'WILLIAMS Seven Lion booters will play their final game today when Penn State wraps up its 1954 soccer season against the Red and Blue Quakers of Penn.. Penn State 'will boast the same lineup spotted with ten lettermen who have been the pulverizing force behind its winning str e a k of seven games. Penn ; however, served notice to the Lions to beware—altliough,the Quakers show a 5-4-1 record—by clipping Rutgers, 13-2, yesterday. to' score, the biggest rout of the season for Penn's coach Charley Scott. On paper and in a pre-season forecast the Quakers were prob ably given the - nod as being one of the top potential squads in. the East with eight lettermen return ing from a team that posted an 8-3 record in 1953. Penn Vets Return Some famiilar faces that will greet the Lions when they meet the Quakers on River iField at 2 p.m. Penn will be paced by All- American lineman Gabor Czako along with Bob Hennesy, Henry Palm, and Bill Van Eestereem on the front line. In the backfield Coach Scott will have a similar array of veteran strength with Bruno Dairo, Fred Tucker, and Joe Morro pacing the defensive game. Last year Czako and Hennessy served as the Red and Blue's one two scoring punch. Against Rut gers the same team riddled the scarlet net for a total df seven goals with Czako collecting five. Of the seven soccermen who will don their blue and white uni fOrins •for' their final collegiate match for Penn State six of them will be members of the first team. 3 Senior Linesmen. _ Captain Jack Pinezich and Joe Mijares, both front-line wingmen, are the only seniors on the Lions' forward wall. Chuck Snyder, playing in the substitute role this season, is also a senior lineman. . In the - backfield, how,ever, Hos terinan will see four of his vet erans handle their final soccer chores. Halfback Gerry Gillispie and fullbacks Paul Dierks, Bob Little, and Galen Robbins are seniors. Penn State's undefeated squad has scored 42 goals in seven con tests this fall to write in aA new record for team scoring by sur passing the 1952 mark of 41 goals in nine games. The Lions have been. equally as rugged on, defense by posting three shutouts and allowing four other teams only five points. Syra cuse was the only team to get more than one goal on the Lions when they bowed to the Nittany team, 9-2. Tentative Starting Lineups PENN STATE. PENN Geczy ' G - Linkoff Robbins RFB .

Today the Lions will battle Penn in an effort to post the first undefeated Pigskin Coin Flips .. Out On a Limb Rip Engle, chief member of the Penn. State football coaching circle, makes his first showing this afternoon in the weekly grid prediction classic as the quartet of swamies make their ninth and final journey out on the proverbial branch to write finis to a sea son of pigskin coin flipping marred by the old nemesis of gridders and coaches—upsets. After bowing, to the Nittany Lion coaching staff in the initial outings, Daily Collegian sports writer Roy Williams surged into the lead and since has been nothing short of selfish with the number one position. At the present he owns a .691--.616 percentage-wise edge over Collegian sports editor and second-place Dick McDowell. Elghty three correct picks and only 37 wrong calls have accounted for Williams' top position. McDowell, who 'finished second in last year's predictions, came about his .616 pace on a 74-46 performance. Herm Weiskopf, assistant scribe, is currently third man in the picks, one position ahead of his final standing a year ago. Seventy three correct choices and 47 negative decisions have given him a .608 average to date. And last but (have to say it to keep up with the 'tradition) not least are the Lion mentors. Undoubtedly Engle is putting forth an eleventh hour _effort to get his cohorts out of the damp confines. Polish up your nickles and dimes boys.
