    Jacks Hurt in 20-12 Lion Win
QB Separates Shoulder,
May Be Out for Season
Penn State emerged from its victorious 2642 football ef
fort over the Syracuse Orange Saturday afternoon at Syra
cuse, N.Y., with a dismal, yet hopeful outlook for the future.
. In short, here's what the Lions saw happen as a result of
the contest:
On the dismal, and more important, side:
37 Remain
At Hospital;
'Worst Over'
With only 37 students in the
hospital and only six students
having box breakfasts in their
rooms yesterday, the worst seems
to be over in the health situation
on campus.
Dr. Herbert R. Glenn, director
of the University Health Center,
said there was little or no pres
sure on the hogpital over the
weekend, and medical service at
both the hospital and dispensary
was now about normal.
In line with .the improvement,
Dr. Ernest B. McCoy, dean of the
College of Physical Education, has
ordered swimming classes to be
resumed.
The upswing in health has
been partly attributed to the cold,
relatively dry weather, which
makes it hard for the virus to in
cubate. Glenn has asked, however,
that ,students continue to take
every precaution to avoid any
new outbreak.
More 'than 2000 children were
reported absent from schools
throughout Centre County yester
day_.
Hardest hit were the State Col
lege area schools, with 834 of
2424 elementary pupils reported
out.
Six persons were reported be
ing treated in Centre County Hos
pital yesterday for respiratory ill
nesses.
The latest unofficial count of
flu-connected deaths in the state
vas 82 yesterday. The toll in
-
'eludes four more deaths at the
Pennhurst School for Mentally
Retarded Children in Chester
-County.
Soph Slips in Shower,
Suffers Cut on Head
Jane Livingston, sophomore in
mathematics from Cokesburg, was
rushed to the infirmary in the
University ambulance about 8:05
last night after she fell in a
Thompson Hall shower and cut
her head.

1. The loss of quarterback Al
Jacks with a shoulder separation
for an indefinite period of time.
perhaps for the rest of the year.
• 2. The loss of guard Willard
(Bull) Smith probably for the
West Virginia game Saturday
and perhaps longer.
3. Clear evidence that the
Lion pass defense needs defi
nite improvement for future en
counters.
On the hopeful side: •
1. Coach Rip Engle saw his
gridders give their first full 60-
minute concentrated effort of the
season—something he had been
aiming for since the opening game
with Pennsylvania.
2. The arrival—temporarily, at
•least--of alternate unit quarter
back Rich Lucas.
3. A strong performance by En
gle's alternate unit, perhaps its
best to date.
Now, for details.
On the dismal side, Jacks hurt
his right shoulder with only
minutes remaining in the sec
ond quarter. He did not play
at all in the second halt. Later
examination showed that he had
separated his shoulder and he
was sent yesterday to the,Dan
villa Hospital to have a pin in
serted in hopes that it may help
him to recover earlier.
The prospect for him to play
in the near future is very dim
and it is feared that he will be
out for the rest of the season.
Smith, who did not play against
Vanderbilt because of an attack
of the flu, injured his left knee
early in the first , quarter and
missed the rest of the 'game. En
gle said that he, too, is a very
doubtful competitor for the Moun
taineer game. However, it is
hoped that guard Richie McMil
len, out since the Army game
with some fractured ribs, will be
ready come Saturday.
• Finally, Syracuse scored its
Iwo touchdowns through the air
—making six of the last seven •
TVs against the Lions to come
on passes. Engle realizes that
this is one of his biggest prob
lems apd will most likely stress
it in practice.
Of pass defense, he said: "It
was much, much better (com
pared to the Vanderbilt game)
... don't forget, that boy '(Orange
