The Lion scoring trio of Tom

Per Torgeson led the Lion of
fensive in both of last week's
contests. The three Lions tallied
a goal in each game to finish
in a three-way tie ifor season
scoring honors with' 13.
Dutch Walz and Jim Hedberg
scored the other Lion goals in
the Temple game. _ _
Two. lucky breaks helped the ,
Lions to their win over Temple.
Late in the first period with the,
score 0-0, Nute attempted a shot
at the Owl goal. His shot was short
of the goal but was deflected into
the net by a Temple player.
"History (almost) repeated it
self" in the next quarter when
with eight minutes gone, one of
Dutch Wales kicks was deflected
into the goal by another Temple
man for the second Lion score.
The two goals didn't - make a
difference in the final outcome
but they probably did their
share in breaking Temple's mor
ale. For after substitute Greaves
scored for the Owls at 13:00 of
the second stanza. Temple could
not muster any type of scoring
attack.
The third period went scoreless
but in the fourth quarter Torge
son, Stollmeyer, and Hedberg
erupted for single goals to give
the Lions their seventh win with
room to spare.
Statistics favored the Lions in
the Temple game. The Nittany
soccermen outshot the Owls 32-17
and had a 10-2 edged in corner
kicks.
At Pittsburgh, it was again a
story of too much Lion strength.
Although they only registered
three tallies, the Nittanies han
dled the Panthers like ' they
owned them. The shot statistics
stood at 35-8 in favor of the
Lions. In the first half alone,
the Steel City men could get
only two shots at the Nittany
goal.
Stollmeyer scored first with a 5-
yard goal at 8:40 'of the first
period. Eleven _minutes and ten
seconds later, Torgeson made the
score 2-0. The Lions did not score
again until Nute banged one into
the net with six minutes remain
ing in the game.
Hosterman lauded the whole
team for its play last week but
he gave special mention to cap
tain- Steve Flamporis.. Flamporis
didn't break into the scoring col
umn but he was always there
when a key pass or defensive
stop was needed.
3 Grid Newcomers
Three newcomers will bolster
Penn State's 1957 football sched
ule. The three are Vanderbilt,

Do you sometimes wonder why you believe what you do in
matters religious.
Many Catholics have that problem. To help them and their
non-Catholic friends who wonder the same, a book was re

Prato Finishes

Southern California's football
team, although out of the Rose
Bowl picture, has made life rosey
for The Daily Collegian's Lucky
Lou Prato (lucky by name and
deed).
Thanks to the Trojans' 10-7 vic
tory over UCLA Saturday, Lucky
Lou rules supreme as the 1956
winner of the 'Out On A Limb'
weekly football poll. Lucky's 8-7
mark broke a tie with Vicious
Vince Carocci to give him a final
over-all mark Of 91 right and 59
wrong for a .607 percentage.
It will be recalled that Lucky
and Vince agreed on all but the
UCLA-Southern Cal and Oregon-
Oregon State frays. , A Turkey-
Day 14-14 stand-off between the
Oregon schools left the issue
squarely up to the nationally
televised coast game in which the
Trojans gave Lou his title.
Fearless Fran Fanucci, who
picked identical with Lucky's
choices, finished in a tie for sec
ond with Vicious Vince at 90 and
60 (.600). The coaches finished a
"respectable" last with an 86-64
mark (.57p.
