'Scoring' Rutgers Squad
Ends Series Saturday
It will be at least four years until Penn State trots on a footliall field to meet Rutgers University
after Saturday's contest at New Brunswick, N.J. Saturday will mark the seventh time that the
teams have met in a series which was instituted in 1918 when Rutgers opened with the first win.
In the last two encounters, including the Lions' 37-14 win last year on Beaver Field, Penn State
has won handily.
But the first three games of the recent series that was reopened in 1950—the Lions have since

Culprit in
Downfall
In Penn State's soccer team's 3-1 win over Navy Tues. ay,
probably the man most responsible for the downfall of the
Middies was junior right halfback Stamatios "Steve" Flam
poris.
The steady performer, one of the unsung, underrated
players on the squad, pulled the Lion booters out of the pro
verbial hole a number of times, and was the chief obstacle
blocking many of the Navy scoring drives.
His clutch head shots and his
flawless passing kept the Nittany
forward wall in control of the ball
for better than three-quarters of
the game, which later proved to
be one of the most important fac
tors in the Lions' victory when
Navy's offense was stalled.
Soccer Coach Ken Hosterman

won all five pr ov e d to be
thrillers.
And this year, for the first time
since those earlier meetings, the
troublesome Scarlet is conceded a
good chance against the Nittany
Lions.
Here's why, according to Tor
Toretti, Lion coach who has scout
ed the Scarlet in its last three
games against Lehigh, Delaware,
an d Lafayette: "It's a well
coached team. Its got good spirit.
Their players never quit and
they play every game to the hilt.
That's hard to do when you're
losing."
The Scarlet have a 2-4 rec
ord losing to Princeton, 41-7;
Lehigh, 21-14; Delaware, 35-7;
and Lafayette, 16-7. They've de
feated Muhlenburg, 21-0, and
Brown, 14-12.
"And they've got something else
they keep in mind," Toretti said.
"It's that streak. They're proud
of it."
The streak Toretti spoke of
revolves around the • longest
scoring skein in the nation.
Rutgers has scored in every
game since 1944-93 of them.
In giving his rundown on Rut
gers Toretti said:
"They have two good quarter
backs in Bill Gatyas and Bill
Whitacre. They've changed their
backfield and have the men down
in a three-point position. Last
year they were standing. Bob
Kelley and Leßoy Lasardi are
their favorite halfbacks."
Coach Harvey Harman has
his team working off the T with
his quarterbacks, although able
to run a fair option, working
the halfbacks through the line
with dive plays from the belly
seriet.
Co-captain Kelley and Lusardi,
have seen most of the action, but
senior Greg Holmes, one of Har
man's 'll returning lettermen, has
been getting assignments at' left
half.
It's a running team, primarily,"
Tor says.
Lusardi, however. is a ,dan

They've hit on approximately
40 per cent of their buses aver
aing 10,to 15 aerials a game.
Toretti said: "Lusardi and Gat-
yas were two of the 'most sought
after high school backs in Jersey,
where they play pretty good foot
ball. You'll see why Saturday."
