Undoubtedly the more boys you have in there boxing the bet ter chance you have at victory." Phi Itappa Sigma is leading the fraternity standings in the Intramural sports competition with a total of 210 points. The Skull House rung up their mar gin through their adept foot. ball team which produced 160 points. Tau Kappa Epsilon, last year's winner are tied for second place with 150 points. The TKE's have charge, Hefferle said he was re ferring to Pitt's lack of really great ends in comparison to Penn State's "butterfingered array." In downgrading his ends, lief fel le forgot to mention the fact that his ends have caught almost twice as many passes as the Lion terminals, 54-25. The leading receiver is rugged sophomore Mike Ditka, who has snared 18 for 252-yards and one TD. The Lion's best receiving ef fort belongs to end Maury Schlei cher with nine receptions for 127 yards and no TD's. The difference in the passing attacks is shown also in the percentage of completions. The Jungle Cats have completed 52 'P e r cent (92 of 178). while the Lions have completed only 39 per cent (58 of 144).

An athlete who loves football so much he extended his program an extra semester so he .. - , could come back to play for the team this year. His name Bob ' Scrabis. 4lefitY • • — 4ll ""ft • 1 Bob will complete his third season of varsity competition next Thursday and will receive his de gree from the College of Business Administration in January. Although it is generally con ceded that Bob has the best passing arm on She club, he has been overshadowed during his three years at State by some of the finest quarterbacks , this campus has seen. First It was the current Cleve land Browns star, Milt Plum, then his contemporaries, Al Jacks hnd Richie Lucas. Many times Bob has come very close to capturing the first-string signal calling job, and backfield coach Joe Paterno says, "Bob is awful close to the other two. Most other years, Bob could have played a lot of football." Paterno, the man who is clos est to the situation, and should know best, is Scrabis' biggest booster. "He is a real asset to Penn State. He is one of the first men on the practice field each night and works as hard as anyone. "When he left for home this spring he weighed 231 pounds. He was told to lose 20 pounds before fall practice. He came back bal ancing the scales at 211." (And Bob likes to eat as much as the rest of us.) "He has continually improved in all around ability," says Pater no and his appraisal is backed up by the fact that professional teams have already indicated their in terest in him. They are anxious to have that right arm throwing passes in the NFL. Bob's jovial manner in the locker, room and ability to comp mand on the field makes him the morale builder of the squad and probably the hest liked man among his teammates. So "Bobby Lane," as his mates call him, has made a lasting con tribution to the annals of Penn State grid history. SATURDAY.

However, Jack Lowe, president of the Cotton Bowl said, "We have giv e n no consideration to Air Force Academy as to how it might qualify for the Cotton Bowl." He said Air Force had not been told it would get the Cotton Bowl bid if it won its remaining games with New Mexico and Colorado. "Even if Air Force should lose those two it still would have as good a record as any team.under consideration," Lowe said. "It would have a '7-2-1 record." SMOOTH SHAVI by SHULTON , • ..,
