son progressed. In five dual
meets, only one opp'sing run
ner—Forddy Kenned of Mich
igan State—finished ahead of
Kerr. He was also he Lions'
top finisher in the wo cross
country meets, placi g ninth in
the IC4-A's and 13 h in the
NCAA meet. During last
spring's outdoor track season,
Kerr placed second in the /C4-A
2-mile run.
One year ago, Werner told The
Daily Collegian "barring any un
seen mishaps, Ed Moran will de
velop into a runner of national
repute this year." He was right.
Moran's second place finish in
the - IC4-A indoor mile in 4:10.7
set a new Penn State indoor rec
ord and established him as one of
the top runners in the East.
Moran's climb to fame took a
sharp upturn during the last
week of May and the moLth of
June. During that five week
period, the Kane speedster
lowered his outdoor mile time
from 4:15.1 to 4:01.7.
In the IC4-A Championships,
he finished second in the mile
behind Villanova's Olympic
Champion Ron Delany in 4:09.7.
One week later, he slashed an
other five seconds off his time as
he placed third in the mile in the
Meet of Champions in - Houston,
Tex. Tis time, 4:05.7.
The next week in the NCAA
meet, Moran's time slipped back
to 4:03, good for sixth place be
hind Irishman Delany, Gredle,
Oklahoma's Australian Gail Hodg
son, Don Bowden, the only U.S.
miler to break four minutes, and
Moran's old indoor nemisis Pete

Mery Lincoln," Werner said.
"They talked track - the whole
distance and I imagine that Ed
probably picked up some valu
able pointers from Lincoln.
"During this time, Ed roomed
with Glenn Davis, Ohio State's
great world's record holder in the
440-yard dash and hurdles," Wer
ner commented. "Davis didn't
seem to wprry a lot about the up
coming meet and this seemed to
put Moran a little more at ease.
"Before the meet, I told Ed not
to take the lead during the early
stages of the race, but never to
get more than five yards behind

Jennings Named
'Coach of Week'
Nebraska's 14-7 victory over
Penn State last Saturday earned
Huskie Coach Bill Jennings
"Coach of the Week" honors from
United Press International wire
service.
Jennings, a former standout end
at Oklahoma and later an assis
tant coach there, won the honor
for the first time. Of course, he
didn't have much of a chance to
win the title in his first head
coaching job last year, for his
team had a poor 1-9 record.

Percy Ceruity. the Austral

Lincoln said after the race that
he has never seen a miler who
improved so much in so short
a period.
But Moran's fortunes did not
end with the AAU Champion

Bison Booters Seek
Ist Win Over Lions
If you don't succeed try again. This is what Bucknell's
soccer team will be doing Saturday when they help the
Nittany Lions kick off the 1958 campaign.
Bucknell and Penn State have met twenty-two times.
Penn State has won 21 of the games with one - tie.
Ex-Lion mentor Bill Jeffrey,! * * *
who coached here for 26 years,
beat the Bisons 16 times. The pres
ent coach—Ken Hosterman has
beaten the*Bisons in five succes
sive encounters
Hosterman, incidentally, learn
ed his soccer from Jeffrey—
considered by many as the
greatest soccer coach in Penn
State's history. His teams post
ed 154-24-29 record.
If Bucknell hopes to come close
to Penn State this is probably the
most likely year. They have 12
lettermen returning_and also have
a good crop of newcomers.
Foremost among the Bison new
comers is Steve Flamhaft. While
playing halfback at Roanoke Col
lege two years ago Flamhaft was
the e team's leading scorer. He sat
out last season due to NCAA
transfer and eligibility rul e s.
Flamhaft will occupy the Bison
center halfback slot.
Another top flight performer
for the Bisons is William
Sharpe. Bucknell coach Hank
Peters ranks him as the top
goal tender in Bucknell history.
Sharpe's understudy at goal is
sophomore Al Hackle.
Bucknell's forward line has
plenty of experienced hands. Co-I
captain Jimmy Balta will start at
outside left. The outside right
will be junior newcomer Norm
Edgett. At inside Peter's has let
termen Meade Geisel and Lee
Lawyer. He also has two letter
men at center - forward—John
Toal, and Frank Regan—either of
whom could start.
The halfbacks aie all letter
men too. Co-captain Tom Clark
will be at right halfback and
senior Dale Pederson is slated
to open at left half. Flamhaft
will be the center half.
The fullbacks will be Al Jack-
* *
son and Roger Mackey. Both
earned letters last year,
Hosterman has not yet decided
on a starting lineup for the Lions.
He is going to hold rine mare
big practice session before mak
ing his decision.
Neither Hosterman or the
Lions are taking the Bucknell
game lighly. They know that
their "country cousins" are bet
ter than ever before.
"This game °won't be a push
over. Bucknell has a lot of letter
men back," Hosterman. "They
will really be up for this game."
