Harriers Again Face
Strong Opposition
The Lion cross-country team leaves University Park this
morning for Van Cortlandt Park, New York City, for tomor
row's meet with Manhattan, almost without a doubt the finest
harrier squad the Nittanies will face this season.
Chick Werner's Lions, still without a win and victims in
four starts this year, close out their 1955 dual-meet schedule
against the Jaspers tomorrow.
Using the records to tell the story, the Lions may well be
finished their Centennial season with a glaring "0" in the
t win column a Werner-coached
team hasn't been shutout since
1940.
Norm Gordon, assistant Lion
mentor, said yesterday, "Manhat
tan and Michigan State (winners
over the Lions two weeks ago)
will probably fight it out for this
year's NCAA title."
Paced by Sbarra
The Jaspers, paced by senior
Bob Sbarra, are unbeaten in dual ,
meets this year, and have at least
three formidable wins to their'
credit. In dual meets they topped
lona College, 18-45. and Dart
mouth, 18-44. In a triangular meet
with Navy and St. Johns they
walked away with top honors by
a wide margin -25-52-54.
In another triangular contest
with Pitt and Army the Jaspers
were second but ran without the
services of Sbarra.
His best time this season was a
25:45 in five miles against Dart
mouth, He also was the individ
ual winner against lona—this
time with a 26:28.5—and finished

ON THE LINE
Congratulations to a true "sportsman." George Harvey, Penn State hunting and fishing special
ist and physical education instructor, won't be gunning for a buck when deer hunting season opens.
He's already got his for '55. Got his first buck two weeks ago with—of all things—a bow and arrow.
It was his 28th buck, but the first without the use' of a gun. He used a 60-pound bow at 40
yards to kill a four-point, 125-pound buck. The shot went through the deer. It was the fourth deer
Harvey had spotted while hunting'
for
for two years with bow and ar
row. Using the "old, style" hunt
ing. weapon, Harvey shot through
a hole in the brush the size of
a plate ,
Harvey, the object of national
magazines for his reports on fish
ing and hunting, is an outdoors
specialist. It's hinted he gave
President Eisenhower several tips
on trout fishing when Ike visited
Campus last year.

Who was the guy that said
Penn State wasn't in the big lea
gues? Two Lion opponents are
in the top ten; West Virginia, 7;
Navy 9; two others in second top
ten: Syracuse, 18; Army 19.
West Virginia looks like a
good bet to be top dog in the
.1955 scoring and total offense
Thee. Has 450 yards to Okla
homa's 392 in six games: lead
in points per game with 37.5
to the Sooner's 33.2.
Navy is third in total defense
and defense scoring, but shot
from fourth to first in forward
pass defense Saturday.

Lambert Trophy Ratings, sup
posedly a symbol of Eastern grid
supremacy, has Navy getting 37
of 38 possible points. Syracuse
second with 19; Perin State eighth

NOTE TO IM PARTICIPANTS:
We need your help. When a

points in an IM basketball
game, we'd like to use his name

we'd like to . use his name.
