PAGE SIX 0 . 0 . 0 • . .. . - . .. . .: Shefry, Bailey Tally for Lions; Moore Shatters Offensive Mark It would be difficult to single out an individual star. Engle got stellar work on the line from ends Sherry, Jesse Arnelle, and Bob Rohland; tackles Rosey Grier and Otto Kneidinger; guards Earl Shumaker and Dick DeLuca; and center Don Balthaser. The game had been billed as a battle of lines, and that was just what it was—with Penn State on the winning end. The Lion forward wall made the difference. It was the Penn State line that pdt Pitt in the hole early in the game and kept it there for the entire first quarter: After the Lions received the opening kickoff and stalled on the Pitt 47, Bailey punted to halfback Henry Ford who re turned to the 11. The Panthers advanced the ball to their own 25 but were stymied there. On fourth down Pitt's Fred Glatz went back to punt. The en tire center of the Lion front wall charged him and DeLuca blocked the punt. Arnelle covered the ball on the 15 and Pitt was in serious trouble. A Penn State fumble af ter the Lions had moved to the 10, stopped the drive. But Pitt was unable to move and found itself in a punting sit uation again with the ball on the 11. This time fullback Tom Jen kins tried, but Jesse Arnelle got to him first and partially deflected the kick. It traveled 12 yards to Bailey on the 29. Lions Fail to Score The Lions advanced the ball to the 10 but failed to score again. Pitt was able to reach its own 28 before the quarter ended, but that's as far as they got. Then Eagle's shock platoon went to work. The Lions put the ball in play on their own 45 after Pitt finally got a punt away. With Rowell and Kane doing most of the run ning the Lions moved into Pitt territory. Rowell carried three times for 14 yards. Then Kane got six on a dive and Rowell ripped up the middle for 14 more. Kane added another three !Ind the ball rested on the Pitt 19. Hoffman Hits Sherry On third down Hoffman faded behind good blocking and con nected with Sherry as he came across the middle of the Pitt end zone. Rowell's placement was wide and the Lions had an all important 6-0 lead. Pitt got moving mid-way in the period and reached the Lion 20 after Henry Ford returned Jim Hochber cos punt to the 24. They were back again later—this time to the 26—with sophomore Corky Cost and fullback Bob Grier carry ing the attack. But again they ran out or gas in the wake of an alert Penn State line and the Lions' Moore. He wrecked that scoring bid with the first of his two interceptions when he shagged Fred Lewis' second-down pass on the 11. The Lions moved in for their second score after the half, and again it was Moore who played the major role. Younker belted Jenkins on an end sweep just after the kickoff causing him to fumble and Moore recovered on the Penn State 44. Ten plays later Penn State crossed the P:tt goal, climaxing a 56-yard drive highlighted by a (Continued from page one) key pass completion from Bailey to Rohland and a 26-yard sprint by Moore. The Ghost opened the drive with a five-yard burst off right tackle. Younker added five more, but a penalty put the ball back on the Lion 44. Then Bailey connected with Rohland for 16 yards to the Pitt 40. Moore lost two, and an other penalty nullified an eight yard pass to Younker and took the ball back to the 47. Bailey Scores On second down Moore broke through the middle on the draw play, cut sharply to his right, and scooted down the sideline to the 21 be f ore he was run out of bounds. From there he and Bailey chopped away at the Pitt line un til Bailey finally bolted over on a sneak from the three. Jim Garrity, who Saw only limited action because of injuries, made his PAT good, and the Lions now led by a comfortable 13 points. The Panthers made one more bid in the third period, moving the ball 58 yards to the Penn State 22 before stalling. It was their strongest drive all afternoon but it failed when quarterback Corney Salvaterra missed a first down by inches on a fourth down sneak. ' After that, the Lions were never in any serious trouble until the closing minutes of the contest. Moore's second interception wrecked one chance in the fourth period and when the Panthers finally did get close to the Lion goal again, it didn't make any difference.
