TUESDAY. NOVEMBER 22. 1955 Lion Harriers Will Miss Monday's NCAA Meet Penn State cross-country teams usually take a back seat to no one when it comes to seasonal powers—this has been proven time and time again by Lion showings in the two annual post-season harrier tourneys—the IC4-A's of the East and the National Collegiates. But, after suffering its worst season since 1940, the Lion squad will not be represented in this year's national meet, to be held Monday in East Lan sing. Mich. Chick Werner, Lion cross-coun try mentor since 1933 (excluding 1943-45), last night announced that he would not enter any of his Centenniaf harriers in • Monday's national collegiate cross-country finale Werner refused.td comment on his decision, but the Lions' 1955 record is reason enough for Penn State not entering this year's NCAA tourney. In four dual - meets the Lions failed to manage a victory. They were downed by Navy, Cornell, Pitt, and Manhattan. The 1955 IC4-A's were held in New York' City last Monday and, for the first time in Werner 's stay at Penn State,•the Lions. were not represented on a team basis. A Booters— (Continued from page one) scorer, Bob Cherry, scoring min utes before the period ended. Pitt centered its defense around Packer, whose apparent over-anit iousness may• have caused him to miss a number of goals. But in the fourth quarter the All-Amer ican center forward broke out of his slump and scored two goals. The record-breaking goal, scored five minutes before the game's end, went through six Pitt play ers who were guarding the goal: The other Lion goal was scored by Don Shirk, who capped , his soccer career with an amazing display of soccer dribbling which was even more amazing due to the blinding snowstorm and poor condition of the field. Despite' the elements, the Lion booters. passed and handeld the ball with apparent ease. Ward Hill, Jim Hedberg, Steve Flam poris, and Ralph Brower played top-notch defensive ball with goalie George Geczy turning in another of his consistent perform ances. Pitt, although threatening throughout the game, was able to-try only 12 shots while the Nittanies attempted 27.

Moorhead finished sixth and Woodrow failed to place among the top 20 in the field of well over 200 runners. Both had• been con sistent high finishers and the only bright spots in the Lion lineup over the past season. For Moor head, it was his third season of varsity action at Penn State. Lions Lose— (Continued from page six) break when fullback Bob Grier intercepted a Milt Plum pass on the 50 and returned it to the Lion 321. Six plays later, despite a dogged line fight by the Lions, Pitt drove over from the two-foot line to take a 6-0 lead. After scoring on a strict ground power offense in the third quar ter to take a 14-0 lead, Pitt kept the Lions handcuffed with action seesawing until the final three minutes when guard Bill Schmitt recovered a Lion fumble on the losers' 35. Quarterback Corny Sal verterra went off on a .62-yard TD run two plays later, but the point was missed for a final 20-0 count. And for Lenny Moore, the Sugar-Bowl minded Panthers with ends Joe Walton and Big John Paluck causing a majority of the headaches with the weather help ing them, it was the end of a great career, but a direct turnabout af ter his sudden surge during the last three weeks: He picked up 10 yards in 13 carries for his ca - reer low.
