for most of the 354 yaids gained
against Marquette—quarterback
Richie Lucas and halfbacks Bruce
Gilmore and Jimmy Kerr.
Commenting on his starting
backs, Kngle said, "I know that
Dave Kasperian and Bucky Pao
lone were my stai ters before they
were injured in the Army game,
but I can't take the other boys
out of there after the job they
did against 'Marquette. You just
don’t fool with a combination that
does real well."
But Boston is a team out for
revenge this year and it proved
it just lust week. Today’s hosts
weie walked over by West Vir
ginia in 1957, 46-6, but they came
tearing back last week and up
set the highly regarded Moun
taineers, 36-30.
Quarterbacks Emo DiNitto and
Jim Girouard head their strong
passing game. According to Lion
end coach J. T. White, who scout
ed the Terriers, ‘‘DiNitto and
Girouard are both good passers
and good ball handlers, especially
DiNitto, who is kind of small
(5-8. 1651 but very elusive.”
"DiNitto started against
Navy," commented the Lion
scout, "but it was Girouard who
had the most success. Last week
Girouard started against West
Virginia but it was DiNitto who
was the hero."
The two have completed 25 of
53 passes for 457 yards and three
touchdowns for their national Bth
lanking and third in the East—
behind Army and Boston College. 1
"Don't think that the quarter- i
backs are their whole show," |
While warned, "They have four j
good halfbacks and a tough full- !
back in Jimmy Dean. And be- I
sides, they expect to have their !
co-captain John Maio ready for •
us." j
Maio, who missed the West Vir
ginia upset, paced the Terriers in
scoring last vear with eight TD’s
while being the top ground-gainer
with 471 yards for a 4.8 yards
average.
He was also the nation's 10th
ranking punt-return performer,
averaging 16 7 yards on 10 run
fa ac k s including an 83-yarder
against Holy Cross. Head coach
Steve, Sinko rates him as ‘‘a su
perb broken-field runner and one
of BU’s best defensive backs.”

... oh offensive guard

White. "They keep the pressure
on at all times with their hustle
and quickness."
On the Penn State side of the
pre-game story, Lion coach Rip
Engle has been busy all week
figuring out his best offensive
alignment. I
“For the most part we’re trying
to develop some offensive punch,”
Engle said “The performance of
some of our veterans has been
rather disappointing, so I’m forced
to give the young fcl'ows a
chance.”
"It should be fairly evident
by now that we don't have the j
speed or potential for an explo- ;
sive running offenses," Engle ;
analyzed. i
"I do expect our passing to im
prove,” he said, “We’ve had good
'passers all along but up until now
our receiving has been poor. But
Maurice Schleicher, Norm Neff
and sophomore Dave Truitt look
ed pretty good against Marquette
and in recent practices I’m much
happier about the end situation.”
Engle will be using Schleicher
and John Bozick at the ends,
Chuck Jancrette "who could be
a much better football player if
he wants to” accoiding to Engle
will start at one tackle along
with Andy Stynchula.
The interior will be composed
of center Steve Garban, left guard
Bud Kohlhaas, and Bill Popp at
the right guard slot. Popp moves
up from the second unit and will
start in place of injured Bill Weh
mer if the Lions receive the kick

and Gilmore at the halves. t.
“The starting job is Lucas’ as
long as he keeps up his present
work,” Engle stated. “Gilmore had
his best day (against Marquette)
since his sophomore year, and
will play a lot of football, espe
cially on offense, if he continues
ito produce. Kerr also played;
well.”'
In summing up his outlook on
the game, Engle commented,
“Still, our defense will have to
be our best offense.”

Lacrosse Teem to Play
Annual Blue-White Game
Penn State lacrosse fans will get a sneak preview of what
is coming in the Spring when the Nittany Lion stickmen
wind up fall practice with their annual Blue-White game
today. Game time is set for F
Nittany Lion lacrosse coach
Earnie Baer will divide all can
didates, including freshmen, into
two squads. The main purpose of
the game is to show Baer what
his prospects are for the coming
season.
"I think we have a real good
squad this year," said Baer.
"I'm really looking forward to
the spring. We have some new
faces and good sophomores who
are going to help us a lot. Cou
ple these with the returning
letiermen and you can see that
we'll be improved."
Last year the stickmen closed
with a 5-8 record. The record is
misleading, however, because the
Lions lost three games by the
total of four goals.
Back from last year’s squad is
John Behne, who was second in
scoring with 18 goals. Behne is
being counted on to provide a
lot of scoring punch for the Lions.
He will line up with the first
midfield today.

atiackmen Dave Wilkinson and
Jim Winpenny, midfielders Chip
Henderson, Dick Bullock, and
Dick Hammond, defenseman
Ray Tuleya, Mike Beallie, and
Gove Elder.
“A lot of these boys improved
lover the summer,” Baer com
mented. “And the “new blood”
we have this year will help a lot
especially Bob Swanson and
Dave Erwin.”
Swanson is a high scoring mid
fielder who was ineligible last
vear but was a high scorer in his
freshman year. According to Baer
he has really looked good in pre
season workouts. Irwin is a soph
omore defenseman who was a
standout with the Nittany la
crosse club last spring.
Baer rates sophomore Lee Her
man as another promising star.
According to the Lion coach, Her
man is one of the most natural
lacrosse performers to hit the
campus in recent years.
