Weekend Impressions . . .
. . . that Pitt Is the best team in the district
including West Virginia, Syracuse, and Penn State,
but isn't Sugar Bowl or Cotton Bowl material,
and shouldn't be considered if Navy drops Army
this weekend.
. . . that Penn State will have another young
team next year; at the ends Coach Rip Engle
will have few headaches save the possible effects
of scholarships and injuries. Jack Faris, Doug
Mechling, Jim Caldwell, Les Walters, Paul North,
and Ned Finkbeiner all saw considerable action
this year, but Mechling, North, and Finkbeiner
were off and on cases because of injuries. Faris
and Walters were particularly impressive in the
last three games.
... that as Lenny Moore goes, so goes the Lions
is so true its pitiful. The Rambling Reading resi
dent is a great back, and deserves the credit he's
received while wearing the Blue and White. Moore
is notoriously no "mudder" and this was proven
this year as he played six games in the mud.
Moore had a great year. He went from nowhere
to fifth in ground gaining. In addition to his de
fensiVe skills (the reason the pros are after him),
Moore had a career total of 2380 yards in 382
carries fora 6.2 average. He scored 25 touchdowns.
What else do you want!
. . . that Pitt's Joe Walton is All-American ma
terial, even though he was shackled by a no-pass
Pitt offense.
. . . that statistics are interesting. At halftime
this is how they read: first downs, five each;
yards rushing, PSU 45, Pitt 83; yards passing,
PSU 16, Pitt 28; passes attempted and completed,
PSU, 1-4, Pitt, 2-2; fumbles, PSU 0, Pitt, 3; com
pare these to the finals.
. . . that in the third quarter college football
proved that it can hold a crowd—something the
pros can't do. With a 14-0 score staring them in
the face and no indication of any radical changes
in the making by the losers, the public stayed,
despite the snow too. But who left; yep, you
guessed it, the students.
. . . that a bangup race will be at fullback next
year between sophomores Emil Caprara, out the
majority of the season with a bad knee, and rug
ged Joe Sabol. The latter has the speed, especially
for fullback pass plays but. Caprara did . the usual
by picking up 31 yards in four tries standing with
his longest gain a ten-yard jaunt. Penn State's
longest run of the afternoon was Bobby Allen's
11-yard run.

.. that fullback Buck Straub was invaluable.—
all season. After missing the BU game because of
a broken hand he played all eight games. Exclud
ing the Virginia game, he carried 51 times against
Army, Navy, West Virginia, Rutgers, Pitt, Syra
cuse, and Penn for 199 yards and didn't lose a
yard. In eight games he got 220 yards in 56 carries
in losing five yards at Virginia.
. . . that Caprara's value on the ground will be
invaluable next year. Although he only carried
12 times while playing between 60 and 70 minutes,
he got 79 yards for a 6.59 average, and didn't lose
any yardage.
. . . that five sophs—ends Walters, Faris, and
North, and guard Bull Smith, and Sabol are In
line for letters.

From Grid to Soccer • . .
. .. that Coach Ken Hosterman, who is admired
by his players, well-liked by his Recreation Hall
co-workers, and an always cooperatiVe coach with
the press, has proved that he can come up with
his own players. This is the first year in his three
at Penn State that he has not had a former Bill
Jeffrey-coached soccer player on his.team, A three
year record of 22-2, two unbeaten seasons, a Na
tional Championship, and record breaki6g per
formances of his team prove his • abilities. And
more honors will be coming this year.
.. that the selection committees correctly sized
up the crystal ball when they chose Dick - Packer
All-American last year. He was then, and proved
that he could come through twice.
* * *
To the Pros • • •
. .. that with the end of the season; the state
ments of the season accrediting public information
head Jim Coogan with mastered efficiency came
in a one-two order. from Pittsburgh Press Sports
Editor Chet Smith and Sun Telegraph staff writer
George Kiseda after the Navy • game. No more
than four minutes had elapsed after the game's
end and Cocigan had four sheets of statistics in
the hands 'of some 30 members - of the working
press. Quipped Smith, "He must have made them
up before the' game is over," Kiseda claimed,' "He's
late; musta had a iandviich 9n the way."
. . . that Bob Prince's season-long best was
midway in the year when he said: 'l'm going
home and make , a record saying, "Tackle by Val
entine," and. half my work will be done"
