One weakness was noted in the

CROSS-COUNTRY???
What is in store for the Nittany Lion cross-country con
tingent this season? That’s the imposing question which faces
coach Chick Werner and his assistant Norm Gordon before
next week’s opener against Cornell at Ithica, N.Y.
Werner has'planned a handicap race for today to be run.
over the first three miles of the harrier course for his run
ners. This will definitely be the stiffest test he has put before
his squad to date.
This should give Werner a fair idea of what he must
work on during his last free week- His runners will definite
ly have to be at their very best in-order to make a good
showing. Starting later than the first man and_running
with the intent to win is no fun for anyone—not even the
best runner in the country.
As things stack up at the moment. Ed Moran, Fred Kerr,
and Clem Schoenebeck are the best the Lions have to offer.
However, there is nothing wrong with having three men
who finished in a tie for first place in each of the freshman
meets last season. The three also led the frosh to a second
place finish in the IC4-A meet in New York last year.
Even though they are untested in varsity competition,
we believe that they definitely have the potential to lead
the Lions to a successful season. Werner shares that belief
also, although he prefers to look at it a bit apprehensively.
The two big question marks as far as Werner is con
cerned are captain Don Woodrow and sophomore Bob
Thompson. Both seem to have the qualities to be good run
ners. Woodrow has had two previous years of varsity ex
perience while Thompson was an outstanding frosh along
with the "big three.”
Both have had some trouble in getting started this sea
son. Werner and Gordon do not know what is the exact source
of the trouble. The word has it that they are starting to look
a little stronger each day—they may find themselves in time
for the opener. If they do, the Lions could be tough this year.
A LIMB OF OUR OWN:
Today the Lion football team meets West Point on hostile
grounds in the first of their battles against some of the nations
top teams. The gridders are the underdogs, although some
of the nation’s sports reporters have picked them to upset the
Cadets.
Don't be surprised if they do—we will not. Taking a
Hunch on team spirit, team balance, and team hustle, we
pick the Lions to win by a touchdown. We will know the an
swer some time this afternoon.
WORLD SERIES PREDICTION:
The Yanks are down 2-0 in the classic of baseball. How
ever, knowing the Yankee spirit and competitiveness, they
can not be counted out until the fourth game is tucked safely
under the Dodger’s belt. Look for a complete reversal in the
New Yorker’s game—Dodger fans hold your breaths, it is not
over vet.
