Penn to Use Morale
Plus Triple Offense
Penn, reportedly iiding on a crest of optimism, spirit, and
morale, is expected to continue to attempt the three-way offensive
attack that it has used against is five past foes—only in vain— when
it meets the Lions Saturday.
Coach Steve Seba—who says everybody's morale is good,
eluding his own, in regards to the
traditional Penn State-Penn con
test set for Franklin field before
an expected turnout of 25,000
has his squad working off the
standard T, wing T, and single
wing,
Penp is practically a carbon
copy of Penn State. It has meet
good opposition, su ff ered several
"tough breaks" and has the man
power. Penn State has each of
these in common with the Quak
ers; as far as ability, however, the
Lions have a decided edge.
Penn has the advantage in size,
but has used a crop of sophomores
in trying to get on its feet after
dropping .five in a row this year.
Dick Ross, sophomore quarter- I
back from Vandergrift, has taken
over since the Quakers' 27-7 loss
to California when Jack McCar
thy was sidelined with an ankle
injury.
For Penn's passing a tta ck,
which has met with sputtering
success, Sebo has called on half
back' Fran Riepl also a sopho
more, to do the Ripping. Against
Princeton when Penn lost a
squeaker. 7-0, Riepl completed
two of four good for a 33-yard
total.
Senior end from Reading; Bob
Lebengood, - and junior back Neil
Hyland have been two of Penn's
favorite downfield receivers. Leb
engood was singled out of his
defensive play and kicking
against Princeton three weeks
ago:
From the single wing, Hyland
does the passing with Ross tak
ing the work from the 4l' position.
- Fullback Stan Chaplin, 180-
potuurPottstown native, has-been
the,Quaker's leading ground gain
er in an attack that has netted
13. points.
Thus far the opposition has
netted 125 points against Penn,
but most of it has come on the
'itioinid. Penn's line play has been
-spotty with both tackles and
ILebengood dishing out most of
-the- defensive headaches.
Rieil has been an important
cog in the Quaker's pass defense.
Against Princeton he limited the
Tigers ta one completion—good
.for only -13 yards.

FASHION
get a lift from new colors,
new collar styles
Gone are the days when young Joseph College settled for a
batch of white button-downs and called it quits. Today he spikes
his shirt collection with oxfords in many soft charcoal-suitmate
colors and a variety of neat new collar styles. Like the Van
Garde, above. And for every sidelong glance he gets, he thanks
Van Heusen for making the softest, silkiest oxford shirts with
an eye for correct but lively 1955 style! Only $4.50 each.

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA
3 Boaters on Olympic Tryout Team
FRAN FANUCCI
Three Penn State soccer players—seniors Dick Packer and Thor Stelnyk and freshman Per Tor
gerson—have been chosen by their coach, Ken Hosterman, •to tryout for positions on the Olympic
Soccer Team the first week in December at either New York or Philadelphia.
The selections were made yesterday after .Hosterman had received a letter from the Olympic
Soccer Committee stating that most of the college. soccer coaches were requested to send in names

the first play Alpha Sigma Phi
attempted a pass but the play
was incomplete. The winners then
came up with the break of the
ballgarne.
Theta Xi's Mike Margerum, at
tempting to throw a pass, was
caught and thrown for a seven
yard loss by Ric. Wolford. In its
next two plays, Theta Xi could
not cross the 50-yard . marker
while ASPhi pushed deeper into
enemy territory.
When the final play *as over,
the ball rested in Theta Xi ter
ritory, giving the win to ASPhi,
1-0.
Al Balkey, Ned Frear, and Ric
Wolford maintained the spirit of
the ASPi line, while the whole
Theta Xi forward wall stood out.
Jim Mayes booted a field goal
from fifteen yards out in the final
minutes, of play, to give Delta
Upsilon a 3-0 win over Sigma Pi.
Dick Williams had started DU
on its scoring' arive when he in
tercepted a Sigma Pi aerial on
the loser's 20-yard stripe. In three
plays, DU could only move the
ball five yards. Then Mayes came
through with the winning points.
Sigma Pi never got within
reach of the DU goal line. The
fine defensive play of brothers
Jim and Bob Brubaker, Tony De-
Julius and Chuck Hickey.
of players they thought capable
of playing the caliber of ball re
iquired of an olympic player.
The reason for the selection of
players by various coaches is be
cause the shortness of time will
not permit a North-South game
or even sectional tryouts to be
conducted and the only other al
ternative was to leave the select
ing up to the coaches.
Both the Eastern and Western
sections of the country will hold
tryouts with the best players
being chosen after the finals. The
Eastern 'cream of the crop' will
play an Eastern amateur team.
At • the same time another ama
teur team from the West will
play an all-star aggregation
picked from the Armed Forces.
If the Eastern college players
win their game and the Armed
Forces win theirs the possibility
of having six Penn State players
in the U.S. Olympic finals might
become a reality.
Three ex-Lions—Jack Pinezich, l
Gerry Gillespie, and Ron Coder—
are already on the Armed Forces
tryout team.
If Stelynk, Packer, and • Tor
gerson are members of the final
ist team that plays the -Armed
Forces squad, which might pos
sibly represent the United Stales
in its fight for a spot in the N 56
Olympics, the former teammates
could possibly oppose each other.
To win a spot in the Olympics,
the U.S. all-stars will have to
beat Mexico in a two-game series
to determine who will enter
Olympic cothpetition for North
America.
The games with Mexico will be
held during the first two weeks
in March or April next year. The
winner will leave the United
States between Nov. 15 and Dec.
15 of 1956.
Both Packer and Stelnyk are
widely known to local soccer fans.
Packer was an All-American last
year while Stelnyk is a strong
candidate for similar honors this
year.
But Torgerson is practically
unknown. Because he is a fresh
man he is ineligible to play var
sity ball, and has concentrated
most of his playing to practice
sessions. Hosterman said that he
is good enough to make the var
sity squad now, and good enough
to try out for the Olympic team.
The three ex-Lion players, now
playing in Germany with the
Armed • Forces team, were team-.
med up , by coincidence and are
sparking the team on ,both of
fense • and defense, according to
reports. Pinezich scored three
goals in his team's 5-3 win over
a German squad.
