SATURDAY. SEPTEMBEit 29. 1956 Nittany Harriers Start Faster Training Pace With conditioning training sessions at an end, Coach Chick Werner has put his cross country runners into a stepped-up training program in preparation for their opening meet Oct. 1.3 at Cornell. The pre-season training period is entering the homestretch, and up to now Werner had held his team in check—preferring to follow a slow, but efficient, practice schedule. However, he feels that now is the time to take the wraps off his runners and mold them into top shape for their dual with the perennially talent-laden Big Red contingent. Thursday Werner sent the team through a timed workout over the full course with the emphasis on obtaining club balance, rather than outstanding individual per formances. He said that a bal anced club will best be capable of competing with the power houses •on the Lion schedule. HE ORDERED his top five run ners—Ed Moran, Clem Schoene beck, Fred Kerr, Captain Don Woodrow, and Bob Thompson— to maintain a steady pace with each other. However, Woodrol.v and Thompson fell ' behind Thompson Thompson eventuall finishing the course with Woodrow drop ping out, The Nittany coach expressed satisfactibn with the progress of his runners as a whole. HoweVer, he did say that he was disap pointed with Woodrow's and Thom p son's performances. He said that if they ran as they are capable of doing, the Lions would be that well-balanced team. MORAN, KERR. and Schoene beck still seem to be the key fi gures in Werner's plans this sea son. They showed their potential last year as freshmen and will definitely be the main threats among the Nittany runners. The Lions have been fortunate to escape major injuries which could prove a great handicap in the coming season. With teams such as Manhattan, Pittsburgh. and Michigan State on the sched ule, Werner will have to have all of his men in good physical shape in order to come up with a suc- Pitt Favored In Home Debut PITTSBURGH, Sept. 28 (iP)— Syracuse and Pitt, two rock 'em. sock 'em teams, both ranked among the nation's top 10, clash here tomorrow in a battle of East ern college football powers. . Upward of 40,000 fans are ex pected for the opening Pitt Stadi um contest (1::30 p.m., EDT) pit ting seventh-ranked Syracuse and the 10th-rated Panthers. • The winner will take a strong grip on the Lambert Trophy, em blematic of football supremacy in the East. Pitt won it last year. Despite an unimpressive 14-13 squeaker over West Virginia last week, • the Panthers are a one touchdown favorite on their home ground against the 26-12 conquer: ers of highly rated Maryland.- Most football experts see Pitt the victor, apparently figuring the Panthers got" off to a bad start and will come back strong against the Orange of Syracuse. Chief objectives of the Panthers will be to stop half back Jim Brown, speedy 212-pounder with bulldozer power, and to generate an offensive punch.
