PAGE SIX No Breather, Toretti Claims— Furman Could Surprise Lion Gridders (and Fans) bteather time again for Penn Slate's football team. At least that's the opinion of most gild observers concerning th e Lions' battle with Furman tomor row afteinoon at Beaver Field. But accoiding to line coach Tor Totetti who scouted the Southern Ccmfei ence foe, Fun man may not be the patsy everyone expects. "I know it's hard trying fo convince someone that Furman will give us a good game, but that's the way I feel," Toretti said yesterday. "I hope we have an easy game, but I'm not think ing along those lines. "In football, any team can heat another on a given Satuiday. F ( iyone tutored Nebiaska would he easy and look 'shat happened.

In his first year of coaching at his alma mater, Cecconi owns a 1-1 record In the opening game of the season, his fiosh squad v.alked over West Virginia, 35-0. After the game, the referees tab bed the Panthers as one of the "hest coached freshman teams" they had seen Last week the junior Sky scrapers fumbled away their game to Navy. 25-6. Only one player has been able to score more than one touch down of the six scored by the Panther fresh lle's second team halfback Ed Clark. Other TD owners for Cecconi fire end Ed Ferdinand, fullback Mike Fiasca, halfback Len Mos mir and halfback Regis Welsh.

Welsh, although being the ex lieme in smallness, typifies the new-type Panther backs who are "not very big and fauly fast," ac cording to Pitt News sports editor Larry Haggerty. "We played a good game in the Navy defeat," commented Haggerty, "but fumbles and blocked punts beat us. Our de fense played a terrific game, but our offense fell apart and the Middies took advantage of it. "Also, Navy had us well scout ed because on our pass plays we were 'pulling the guards' to block and the Middle linebackers were shooting through and nailing our passers."

Toretti said, "and they played their woist game of the yea' against the Citadel. They out played Alabama, but three quick touchdowns in the first quarter gave Alabama the win." Nev.spaper teports on that Ala bama game move Toretti cor rect. Accoiding to one article, Furman was shaken by the pow er of the Alabamans in the first peliod, but recovered from their jitteis to give their opponent a tough battle—especially in the second half when they outgained the winners 119 yards to 46. "We will have to be alert against their passing," Tore ' said. "They have one end—Ray Siminski, a boy from Chester, (Pa.), who is as good as any end in the country. And (Bill) Baker, their quarterback is a very excellent passer. He was fifth in the nation in passing last year. "This Siminski is a great receiv er and runner and he's hard to bring down. So far this year, he has scored four touchdowns and has long TD runs of 70, 59 and 32 yards." According to the latest statistics released by the NCAA, Sirnmski is the nation's fifth-ranked pass receiver with 20 receptions for 354 yards. In the game with Wof fold, Siminski accounted for 158 yards and two TDs on seven catches. 'For his pet formance, he was named the Southern Confer ence's "Lineman of the Week." Torefti's estimation of Baker is well-deserved also. The Fur man signal-caller is not among the nation's top 15 passers thus far, but he is only six comple tions off the pace. He has hit on 36 of 80 aerials (a .450 per centage) for 556 yards and nine TDs. Last year Baker completed 88 of 150 passes for 846 yards and six touchdowns. "Furman, also boasts a couple of real fine tackles ..." Toretti said, "... Don Markofski, another Ches ter boy, and Jim Boriff. They are real hard workers and play over the middle of the line, on defense. They played practically the whole game every time I've seen them and have done good jobs."
