DON'T DROP HIM ... Nittany Lion soccer players engage in a little horseplay before Bucknell
game. That's Lion Coach Kenny Hosterman in the middle.
By SANDY PADWE
Bucknell's Bisons will be
the opponent as Penn State
''kicks off" another soccer
season this afternoon at 1:30.
The game will be played at
Beaver Field.
Kenny Hosterman, who took
over as Lion coach six years agog
will be shooting for his sixth;
consecutive winning season. In'
1954 and 1955 Hosterman's teams
won national championships.
He will be fielding a team
composed of seven lettermen and
four "newcomers." Among the
'newcomers" are Julius Besoush
oko, Bill Rierson, Loren Kline
and Mike Ackley.
Ackley and Kline aren't ex
actly newcomers to the Penn
State soccer scene. Both were on
the squad last year but didn't see
action. Rierson and Besoushoko
are refugees from last year's
freshman team.
The injury plague which has
haunted the Lions claimed an
other Lion yesterday. It was
learned that Hairy Lambrous
sis, a highly touted center for
ward, suffered a broken nose
and would be lost for the open
er.
Although a serious injury, the

circumstances under which the
injury was discovered are rather
I
humorous.
On Thursday night Hosterman
saw Lambroussis after practice.
He remarked: "Harry, your nose
looks broken." Lambroussis re
plied: "My nose isn't broken,
Coach, it always looks crooked."
Just to be on the safe side,
Hosterman sent Lambroussis to
the infirmary for a checkup.
There it was discovered that he
had suffered a broken nose and
wouldn't see action against Buck
nell.
The Lion coach announced
that Jerry Bruce would act as
captain for the opening game.
The regular Lion captain
Howie Maierhofer—broke his leg
in a practice session last week
and will be on the sidelines for
the rest of the year. Hosterman
decided to name an honorary cap
tain in Maierhofer's place before
each game.
Bruce earned the captaincy be
cause of his spirit and attitude.
Hosterman said. "Jerry is a boy
who understudied two good
goalies in the last two years,"
said Hosterman. "He didn't play
much but he never gave up. A
boy with his spirit would be a
joy to any coach."
According to reports from
Bucknell, the Bisons have one of

their strongest aggregations in
recent years. They have 12 letter
men and a good batch of sopho
mores returning this year.
Bucknell and the Lions have
met 23 times previously. Penn
State has won 22 matches and
there was one tie. Thus Buck
nell has some added incentive
this afternoon.
Bucknell coach Hank Peters
(Penn State '39) hes high hopes
for his squad this year. He is
optimistic about finishing over
.500 for the first time since he
began coaching at Bucknell six
l'years ago.

If you can't make the trip to Philadelphia this afternoon for
the last of the traditional Penn State-Penn football battles, don't
be discouraged. There's still an athletic event on campus awaiting
your visitation.
I'm talking about the soccer game with Bucknel; behind the
north stands of the Beaver Field gridiron. There's no charge at the
gate, and I'm sure Coach Ken Hosterman wouldn't mind if you
brought your portable radio along to listen to the pigskin test.
You know, it's strange how little the sports public knows
about this game of soccer—especially those who consider them
selves an expert along every athletic trail. In this country soccer
takes a backseat to football during the fall. But in almost every
other major rtation in the world--yes, and even the small coun
tries too—soccer is considered king. In fact, only in America does
the name that we know as "football" mean "football." In other
corners of the globe, the word football signifies soccer.
And if you think that the capacity crowd of 101,000 that an
nually attends the Rose Bowl on New Year's Day is something,
just look at the reports of soccer's world series attendance. It would
be an insult if only 101,000 would turn out per game during the
double elimination soccer playoff series.
But getting bark to the Penn State soccer scene, we would like
to point out the phenomenal success that Lion hooters have. Year
after year, the Nittanies are rated among the top collegiate soccer
teams in the nation, and twice in the last five years they have
been acclaimed national champions.
Hosterman was the tutor for those two national finis's, but
he still has a long way to go to equal the coaching record set by
Bill Jeffreys. (Jeffreys, incidentally, is still coaching soccer in
Cuba.)
In 25 years at the Lion helm, Jeffreys' teams won 154, lost only
24 and tied 29. He coached 13 unbeaten outfits and at one time had a
65 game winning streak going. That record still stands.
Two of Jeffreys' teams went on international good-will tours.
His 1934 aggregation traveled to his native Scotland and his
1951 machine sojourned to Iran. On top of this, he had the honor
of sending a team to the first Soccer Bowl game in 1949 where it
tied San Francisco, 2-2. Jeffreys' 1950 array also went to the now
'defunct Soccer Bowl, whipping the Purdue soccer club, 3-1.
Hosterman's own record isn't bad for a five-year regime. His
teams have won 38, lost five and tied two for a .884 winning per
centage (stalemates are disregarded).
Overall, Penn State's soccer teams have won 226 games in 49
years of competition. Only 38 defeats have been recorded, and 43
ties. In 307 games, the Blue and White has tallied 1101 points for a
3.6 average per game to the opponents' 286 goals-0.9 per game.
So if you ale looking for something to do this afternoon, remem
ber—Coach Ken Hosterman would appreciate your presence.
