Lions to Face
4th Heavy Line
The Nittany Lions will have to pull a reenactment of the
“David and Goliath” battle if it expects to win this Saturday
against the front-running Syracuse football team.
For the fourth consecutive week, the Lions will be face
to face with a line heavier than its own. Holy Cross, Ohio
State, and West Virginia were all listed at least 10 pounds
heavier on the line, and this week
appears to be no different.
The Orange line will average
approximately 212 pounds
while the Nittany forward wall
just barely edges over the 200
mark.
Heaviest men on the Syracuse
line are tackles Chuck Slrid (225)
and Jerry Cashman (220). Guards
Rudy Farmer and Ed Bailey are
210 and 200 pounds respectively,
center Bill Brown is 210 pounds,
and ends Dick Lasse and Don Alt
house are each over 200 pounds.
But, according to reports circu
lating from Syracuse, the Orange
have been unlucky concerning in
juries. Farmer, fullback Ed Cof
fin, and second-string linemen
Dick Anderson and Joe Krivak
are question marks for the Lion
tilt. Krivak may be lost for the
year because of a severe elbow
injury.
Coach Ben Schwarlzwalder,
who would rather best the
Lions than any other team on
the Orange schedule, is still
confident that his team, al
though weakened somewhat by
the injuries, will stop the Lions*
winning streak at three games.
His defensive unit is one of the
tops in the East, but will be lac
ing another top defensive club in
the Lions. Schwartzwalder rates
Brown, Lasse and Bailey as three
of his top linemen. Brown is the
top backerup on the team, be
sides being a good offensive
blocker.
Lasse is considered an excellent
defensive end and a good pass
reeciver. He is second in pass re-

CROSS-COUNTRY
AND DEMORALIZATION—
After last Sat:
day’s 15-40 rout at the hands of Michigan State’s
strong harrier contingent, many people who saw the race began to
wonder just how bad the whipping would affect the Lion club.
It was very possible that the shutout would demoralize the
whole squad, cracking the strong team spirit which has prevailed
since the beginning of the season. It would not have been the first
time that such a defeat broke a young team, such as this year’s
Lion aggregation, before it ever reached its potential.
However. Coach Chick Werner ended all doubts yesterday
when he told us that the possibility of team demoralization was
now completely out of the picture. He admitted that, after the
race, this was the foremost problem on his mind but said that,
after talking to his runners, there was no need to worry.
He said the'team ~was taking Ihe defeat in stride and showed
no abnormal effects. He was not worrying over it anymore. Right
now, his sights are set on Saturday’s race with Manhattan.
Werner said that no one could criticize the Lions for their
showing last Saturday. We agree. The Spartans were just too strong
for the sophomore-laden harriers te handle.
As the times prove, the Spartans pul on one of the best per
formances seen here, or possibly anywhere in the country, in quite
some time when three of its first five runners broke the Penn
Stale course record. The fourth m» missed tying it by only 15
seconds.
No one can find fault with a team simply because it was shutout.
Looking at the Spartans’ past record, the shutout did not come as a
great surprise. After all, when you are running against an inter
collegiate champion with its first four men back for another season,
nothing comes as a surprise.
We honestly believe that if it were not for the fast pace that
the Spartan leaders set early in the race, a shutout would have been
averted. However, the Lions had to try and keep up if they expected
to have a chance to win. The pace was too tiring and the runners
gradually began to fall back. Look for a complete reversal of form
against Manhattan.
