SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER 24.1955 Booters Scrimmage AF; Matacia Back Penn State’s soccer team, bolstered by the return of Dick Ma tacia and Army veteran Don Shirk, will scrimmage the Sampson Air Force Base at 12:30 p.m. today on the soccer field next to the Beaver Field football stands. The military hooters are venturing into the Nittany Valley for the second straight year. In last year’s contest, which was held midway in the season, the Lions routed their foe, 18-2 Lion coach Ken Hosterman, who has one line spot worry; dis solved with of Matacia, will start seven veteran's—four on the line, two in the backfield, and one at goalie. The remaining four positions will be manned by players with virtually no exper ience, bn the line Hosterman will start Tom Nute* who was prob ably the most valuable substitute the Lions’ had last year, at out side left. Matacia will man the in side left position. Matacia Will Help Matacia’s return will definitely help the booters. Last year his offensive and defensive playing sparked the Lions in many tough situations. At the center forward spot will be last year’s high scorer, Dick Packer. Packer scored 18 goals last year in addition to coming through with seven assists, which strengthened his team value. At inside right will be veteran Mert Springer. Springer scored only two goals last year but his booting finesse and passing abil ity make him a consistant and dangerous threat.. The only newcomer to.the line will start at outside right. He is sophomore Jim Hedberg, who im pressed Hosterman in practice with his team spirit and - his ability to move the ball well. - At the halfback spots, Hoster man is at his strongest. Army vet Shirk will be at the left halfback spot with Ihor Stelynk, another old reliable on the team, at the center halfback post. At right halfback will be Steve Flamporis, who was one of the top defensive men the booters had in ’54. He looked especially good on his doymfield offensive play and also on his sharp head shots. Fullbacks Are 'Green' At the fullback spots is where Hosterman has his worries. His two top men« Paul Dierks and Galen Bobbins, were lost through graduation. And this year he must depend on a sophomore, junior, and senior. Slated to start are either senior Bob Little or Dave Davis at the left fullback position with sophomore Ralph Brower at the other position. At goalie, George, Geczy will get the nod. He was first string goalie for lgst year’s unbeaten team and showed ability in snag ning' attempted enemy-shots. - The booters open' the regular season with Army at West Point Friday and then open their home season with West Chester Oct. 8. Champ to Box In June Bout NEW YORK (&) —Heavyweight champion Rocky Marciano will be back in action next June. The pos sible victims include Cuba’s Nino Valdes, hulking' Bob Baker of Pittsburgh, Hurricane .Tommy Jackson of New York ->r Floyd Patterson, the once-beaten Olym pic champion of Brooklyn. The invincible Brockton Blas ter, having earned half a million dollars for his ninth-round knock out of Archie Moore in a spectac ular brawl Wednesday night, has decided to go after a few more helpings. It may not be as much as he earned with the colorful, cocky light heavyweight boss, but. it fig ures to be plenty the way theater television is advancing by leaps and bounds. Moore, who was knocked down four times and had his right eye shut, said he wants another crack at the rock-ribbed, steel-jawed Marciano but it is doubtful if the return will be made. Too many people remember what happened to Ezzard Charles in his second fight with Rocky after their thrilling first bout. The 20-year-old Patterson does not seem a likely choice soon either. Now the No. 1 contender for Archie’s 175-pound crown, the fast-punching youngster is being groomed as a heavyweight threat for 1957. THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE.

Out On a Limb With the first big weekend of 1955 collegiate football sweeping the nation, the time is ripe for the Daily Collegian sports staff and the Nittany Lion grid coaching staff to match wits in the Collegian’s annual pigskin forecast. Line coach “Tor” Toretti, selected to represent the Rec Hall master-minds today, probably took the longest stroll out on the proverbial limb when he went against the Collegian staff to pick Maryland over UCLA—the Associated Press’ top team Roy Williams, chief man on the Collegian sports desk, leads the scribes into today’s poll, followed by Assistant Sports Ed:lor Ron Gatehouse and staff writer Fran Fanucci.
