The Buckeyes, in three games, have not thrown more than 12 or 14 passes because of their ex tremely strong ground game, but they pass, as Toretti says, "to keep the opposition honest."

Toretti said that Roseboro is “the kind of back you’d like to have in your own backfield.” Also up for special mention by Toretti were the Buckeye guards What young people are doing at Young mathematician helps pace engineering advances Recently General Electric developed a compact, new motor for industrial use. But before the motor could be put into automatic production, one difficulty remained: to de sign a protective end shield that would con fine any possible explosion to the motor itself. The man who solved the tough mathemat ical problems involved is R. A. “Pete” Powell a mathematical analyst whose Job is to as sist qther engineers in math problems which arise in any number of different projects. Because he is not tied down to any one project, Powell seldom has two similar as signments. Taking established engineering and mathematical principles, some of them extremely complicated, Powell applies them to advanced engineering problems. In doing this, Pete is able to make such calculations as the distortion of a small part of a jet engine caused by vibrations, the deflection occurring in a turbine part when it runs at operational speeds, or the forces exerted upon a rotating shaft by lubricants. 27,000 College Graduates at General Electric When “Pete” Powell came to General Elec tric in 1953, he already knew the kind of work he wanted to do. Like each of our 27,000 college-graduate employees, he is being given the chance to grow and realize his full potential. For General Electric has long believed this: Whenever fresh young minds are given freedom to make progress, everybody benefits the Individual, the Company, and the country.

PENNSYLVANIA ★ ★ ★ Powell's Work Is Varied and Important Jim Parker and Aurelius Thomas.: "Parker,” Toretti said, "s pea r heads the line and is an excellent: lineman. He can move for his size and makes an awful lot of tackles! all over the field.” I Parker is probably the biggest lineman the Nittariies will face this year. The All-American can-! didate stands 6-3 and weighs 255[ pounds. Thomas weighs 200 pounds and stands 6-1. and impressed Toretti with his fine play on both offense and defense. The Lions for the third con secutive week looked powerful, and against Holy Cross could not have been much better, but that game proved costly. Starting end Paul North injured his shoulder and will probably be lost for the Ohio State game, while fullback Emil Caprara, who injured his ankle in the Army contest, is stillj |an unknown quantity as to wheth-J ier he will be able to play Satur-j Iday. Reserve halfback Jay Liv-j ziey, who suffered a concussion in the Holy Cross game, is lost for the season. Les Wallers is the logical re placement for North at end and Maurice Schleicher will replace Caprara. 3 Nittany Grid Opponents Rated In Top 20 in Associated Press Poll | Three of Penn State’s 1956 football opponents are listed [among the top 20 teams in the nation, according to the latest Press poll. Ohio State, the Lions’ next foe, is in fifth place while Syracuse is 13th and Pittsburgh 16th. The Buckeyes accumu lated 721 points, Syracuse 53, and Pittsburgh 30. Oklahoma’s torrid Sooners maintained their first place lead, although second ranked Michigan State is closing in rapidly. Okla homa polled 1173 votes —67 of them for first place—and Michi-] gan State totaled 1148 —45 of ; them for first place." Experts Eye Spartans The experts look for the Spar tans to gain even more strength next week if they beat Notre Dame’s puzzled Irish. Last week. Michigan State romped to a 53-6 victory over Indiana while Okla homa was beating Texas by “on ly” 45 points, 45-0. 1 The experts believe that the Spartans have the tougher sched ule of the two and schedules fi [gure more strongly in the ballot ing than do statistics. Oklahoma has won 33 straight games—the last three over North Carolina, Kansas State, and Texas. The only major change in the standings saw mighty Michigan return to the top 10 once again by virtue of its decisive win over Army. The Wolverines are ranked PAGE SEVEN eighth. Texas A&M dropped from ninth to 14th because of its 14-14 tie with Huston last Saturday. Georgia Tech holds the third spot with 900 points, followed bv Texas Christian (751) and the Buckeyes. Mississippi (552), Ten nessee (531). Michigan (411), USC (272) and Baylor (163) complete the top ten. Miami Tops 2d 10 Miami (Fla.) tops the second 10 with 139 votes—one first place ballot. lowa, victor over Wiscon sin. is 12th, followed by Syracuse. Syracuse gained most of it; support by defeating West Vir ginia—another Penn State oppo nent—27-20, at home last Satur day. Clemson follows Texas A&M with the once-beaten Panthers in the 16th spot. Purdue, surprise winner over Notre Dame Satur day, ranks 17th with little known Virginia Tech IBth. Tulane and South Carolina complete the standings.
