'Loaded'
'Do-or-Die' Year
For Penn Coach
Two years ago the University of Pennsyl
vania's football coach Steve Sebo was hung in
effigy by avid Quaker fans. The noose will prop
ably fall again this season—this time for good—
Sebo doesn't produce a winning team.
For, according to the reports, Penn , is
loaded with the best personnel since Sebo
began his teign five years ago. And nothing
less than a winner—and a possible Ivy
League championship—is expected.
That's one reason Penn State will have
to be at its best when it opens Penn's 1958
campaign tomoi row at Philadelphia.
Sebo has 21 lettermen returning from
last fall's club which won four of nine games
—the best record at the Philadelphia school
since 1952. Seven of those vets are scheduled
to start. including five who opened against
the Lions last year.
Most notable of the returnees is tackle
Joe Hordubay, a two-year veteran, and left
halfback Fred Doelling—both of whom are
considered All-East and All-Ivy candidates.
Hordubay, who has been a starter since the
first game of his sophomore year, is the key
offensive blocker in the Quakers' single wing
attack. His pm formance at this slot last fall
drew sterling raN es from Eastern sports
iters
Doelling was Penn's top ground gainer
in his sophomore season last fall, rushing '
for 511 yards in 97 carries.• This year he
forms one part of Penn's speedy halfback
tandem which is rated one of the fastest in
the East Junior Jack Hanlon, who under
studied Doelling in 1957, is the other half
of tha' combo.
Included among the other Quakers who
started against Penn State last year are cap
tain Ray Kelly, right tackle Dennis Troychak
and right guard Oliver Beamon. All three
are gunning for their third Penn monogram.
Kelly, the inspirational leader of the
Quaker forward wall, started' at center last
year but was switched back to his normal
guard post during pre-season drills.
Sebo feels that the Hordubay-Kelly-
Beamon-Troychak diadem, plus junior new-

comer Ron Champion at center, gives Penn
one of the strongest interior forward walls
in the Ivy circuit—if not in the East.
Champion has been one of Sebo's big
gest surprises this season. He performed with
the jayvee team last fall and was expected
to see reserve duty behind veteran Frank
Wilson and junior John Marchiano this
year. But an outstanding showing in pre
season drills earned him the number one
pivot spot.
The rest of Sebo's forward wall includes
letterman Barney Berlinger at left end and
rookie Jon Greenewalt at the right wing.
Berlinger was originally slated for right ter.
"minal, but has been moved to left because
of the ineligibility of veteran Bill Kesack
and the injury of letterman John Seksinsky.
Seksinsky may see action. If so, Berlin
ger will move back to the right end spot. The
loss of Kesack, which was just disclosed
Wednesday. will undoubtedly hurt Penn.
Kesack understudied two-year veteran Park
er Jacoby in 1957 and did a creditable job
before breaking his ,collarbone against Har
vard.
Sophomoi e Ed Goodwin and junior Larry
Purdy join Doelling and Hanlon in the Quak
er backfield. Goodwin. who pushed veterans
Dace Sikarskie, Bill Riser and John Wright
out of a job, will start at fullback. Purdy,
up from the jayvees, ousted veterans Hal
Musick and Tom Twitmyer for the quarter
back slot.
Goodwin has been one of Sebo's stand
outs in prc-season drills. It was his stylish
running performance in a scrimmage against
Rutgers a week ago which won him the start
ing fullback post.
' Purdy's choice over Musick at quarter
back is somewhat of a surprise. However, it
was the rookie's proficiency at passing that
won him the nod. It might be noted that
Musick was Penn's leading ground gainer in
last year's State game. He gained 59 net
yards, including a 47-yard touchdown dash
on a quarterback keep play. Musick also
scored the Quakers' other TD last year with
a one-yard sneak.
"This could be the best team
I've coached at Holy Cross.':
This year's team is the 15th
Holy Cross Club Anderson has
coached.
On the other hand, Panther
Coach Johnney Michelosen is
worried about a passer—Ander
son's stellar quarterback, Tom
Greene.
But the host Panthers are fav
ored by seven points.
