Avengeful Rooters
Host Penn Today
Last season Penn State's soccer team suffered only two losses and one tie in eleven .
outings. The booters haven't been too successful this fall in avenging two of those setbacks
but they get a chance to avenge the - third when Pennsylvania visits Beaver Field this after-,
noon. Kickoff time is at 2:30 p.m.
Penn and Navy were the only teams to beat the Nittanies
was the culprit in that deadlock. * * *
The Lions have demonstrated
their revenge capabilities this sea
son by losing to West Chester,
5-1. and - tying the Middies, 2-2.
(Adding an ironic sidelight, all
of last year's games were played
on the opponent's home turf while
this season the Lions are the host
club).
Penn's 3-2 conquest last fall can
hardly be forgotten by Nittanv
soccer fans. The Lions outhustled,
outkicked, outran and outplayed
the Quakers for 88 minutes
And that wasn't all. The vic
tory ended a 22-game unbeaten
skein for the Lion beoters and
gave the arch-rival Pprmsyl
vania school its first win over
Penn State since 1918. The
series which began in 1911 now
stands at 13-3-2 in favor of the
Lions.
Two of those Penn State vic
tories haVe been recorded in the
Ken Hosterman coaching regime
—a 6-0 win in 1953 and a 3-2 vic
tory the following year.
There will probably be some
changes in the Lions' starting
alignment today from the end
which opened against Army last
Friday. The major alteration will
be at left fullback where veteran
Paul Bauer returns after a week's
absence because of a broken nose.
Thor Chyzowych, the starter
at left full against the Cadets
and an all-around utility start
er, may find himself on the
sidelines at game time. Chyzo
wych has played at every posi
tion except center halfback and
goalie this season. Hosterman
indicated yesterday that he
plans to use Chyzowych, "but
I'm not sure where," he said.
The diminutive sophomore may
be moved back to fullback with
Bauer shifting to center half. The
regular center half, Gary Miller,
was kicked in a practice session
this week, and "may" be forced to
miss today's contest.
The rest of the Lions' first ar
ray is pretty well set with Jim
Hedberg and Dave Hasse team
ming up at the wings: Per Tor
gerson and Mike Stollmeyer
displaying •their talents at the
insides; Bill Fielder working at
the mobile center forward slot:
Herb Hertner and Howie Maeir
hofer flanking the center half:
captain Ralph Brower tackling
the right fullback post; and
sophomore Ralph Becker guard
ing the nets.
Fiedler, the Lions' leading scor
er with 14 goals, was en the
"doubtful" list earlier in the week
because of a broken toe suffered,
at West Point. But he will be in
the lineup today.
in reserve, Hosterman will - have
veteran Walt Krauser at half
back (he could be a starter at right
half); Marlin - Stover at fullback;
Lorren Kline, Lou Vanßafeighem
and Pete Wadsworth on the for
ward line; and Jerry Bruce and
Don Dougald at goal.

But its not our job to give you the inside on Pitt. and we
will get down to our part of the problem: What does Pitt have
coming up from the freshman team.
Well, we covered the Lion-Panther frosh this year and the
Panther cubs impressed us not. Now this is in complete contradic
tion to what Pitt Freshman coach Steve Petro espoused prior to the
opening of the season.
Petro called his 1957 edition "the finest squad since the one on
which Corny Saivaterra (remember him?) was a yearling."
Things didn't go too well for Petro's "finest squad since" (to
put it mildly) and they dropped their first two games to the Lions.
13-7. and the Middies. 25-13. Then they scored "impressive" shut
outs over West Virginia. 34-0. and Kent State (where's that?), 44-0.
After this last victory of his 2-2 season, Petro regained his con
fidence and issued the following: "If we could only play Penn State
By BEN BRONSTEIN and Navy again."

KEY TO DEFENSE—Starting fullbacks Paul Bauer, left, and Ralph
Brower, right, and reserve goalie Don Dougald will be the keys
to the Lion soccer team's defense against Penn today. All were
members of last year's Nittany squad which dropped a 3-2 decis
ion to the Quakers.
Stevens Leads DU
To Swimming Win
Adie Stevens led his DU team
mates to their resounding win by
personally copping three first
places, thus emerging the indi
vidual star for the evening.
Stevens' wins were in the 60
yard free style (:32.0) and the 60
yard breast stroke (40.5). He also
edged his teammate Ogie Norris,
17.5 points to 16.2, to score his
final triumph in the diving con
test.

stroke with a lime of :43.6 and
also teamed with Rae Hoopes,
George McLeod and Dick Ham
mond to take the 120 yard relay
event with a clocking of 1:02.8.
Mike Stollmeyer, of Lion soc
cer fame, utilized his powerful
kicking legs to lead his Delta Chi
team to its victory in competi
tion with AEPi. Stollmeyer's :34.2
won the 60 yard free style, and
he led the relay team to its 1:01.5
winning time in the 120 yard re
lay. Teammate Bob Shiffner was
no less a deciding factor as he
won the 60 yard back stroke
(:40.6), placed second in diving:
and was a member of the victor
ious relay team also.
Delta Chi's other first place
was in the 60 yard breast stroke
with Jim Hepler the 'victor.

PITT'S LAST 'BIG' YEAR
At the annual Pittsburgh JayCee All-Star game held in August
we were in the company of Rites ... sports publicity director "Beano"
Cook when someone made the comment, "This is our (Pitt's) last
'big' year."
Nobody believed him.
At the time. Pitt had one of its most highly-rated teams (any
where from sixth through tenth on the pre-season polls) prepping
for mighty Oklahoma. And many writers in that press box, includ
ing this one and naturally "Our Boy Beano," thought that the
Panthers had a good chance of knocking off the football giants from
Norman, Okla.
But Cook thought that the Panthers would lose four others.
They were Southern California (whom they beat by two TD's).
West Virginia or Syracuse (they lost bolo by upsets). Penn State
and Miami (who they meet In a TV game December 7 in sunny
Florida.)
Cook was wrong on a few counts—too many counts. The Pan
thers now own a dismal 3-5 record with wins over SC, Oregon (6-3
on a last-minute TD) and hapless Nebraska. Right now, they are
resting up for us
But to get back to the main topic; Is this really Pitt's last big
year:7
Every team will naturally lose some of their big stars. And
although this is nearly the end of another season, we will not elabor
ate more on the upcoming Pitt losses other than to state that they
will lose first stringers end Dick Scherer. tackles Jim McCusker
(ohh how he'll be missed) and Ron Kissle, guards Dan Wisniewski,
Dick Carr and John Guzik (the most underrated player on the team)
and All-America center candidate Charlie Brueckman. As a matter
of fact, that's the whole line.
