Weber Excels as Harrier
Without Past Experience
Herm Weber,'top notch cross country runner, is a classic
example of the man who made the grade in a sport without
any previous experience. »
Weber, a fifth semester student in architecture, never ran
cross country in high school. He was a varsity swimmer and
jniler on the track team. k + k
Upon entering Penn State, he
learned that swimming was not
offered as an intercollegiate sport.
So he decided to try out for the
cross country team.
Almost immediately, he was
turning in fine performances.
He capped his fledgling year by
finishing fifth in she freshmen
inlercollegiales.
Weber opened up
year with a tie to
the Midshipmen of

ing sophomore ai
help to the team.
Weber said Ifcal the two
secrets to success in running
cross-country wen > proper con
ditioning and mental discipline.
"Only with these two things is
one able to run fire miles at a
time," Weber said,
Weber admitted that he does
not usually practice running in;
the summer, but this summer he
did because he felt that he “need
ed some extra work.''
Werner said that Weber has
been running some strong prac
tices this fall and has turned in
one of the finest showings to date.
Werner also added that the
squad has been doing fairly well
since practices began. The main
problem has been conditioning
the runners in time for the first
meet against Cornell on Oct. 3.
Most of the harriers did not do
much summer running because
of the length of the spring track
season.
Because of the weather—a
hot humid day being the worst
to run in—Wejrner concentrated
on downhill running in yesier-
Gordon Regains Job
As Indian Manager
x CLEVELAND (JP) —Joe Gordon, relieved as manager of
the Cleveland Indians just Tuesday night, got his job back
yesterday—with a two-year contract and a raise in pay.
Frank Lane, Indians general manager who had publicly
berated Gordon for his handling
of the team, told a startled press
conference: |
“The best man to succeed Joe
Gordon, I thought, was Joe Gor
don.” j
The announcement was a com-]
plete switch —speculation wasj
that former National Leaguel
manager Leo Durocher would pi-!
lot the Indians next season.
When Lane leaned back in his
chair at the start of the press
conference and shouted to an
aide to “bring in Leo,” Durocher:
was expected to step through the
door.
But in strode a smiling Joe
Gordon, who shook hands with
the boss and said the feud was
over.
Gordon dismissed the bitter
exchanges as the actions of “two
hot-heads in a pennant chase.”
Until Tuesday night the second
place Indians could have copped
the American Lejague flag. But

day's practice. The hill-and
dalers split up into groups and
ran the long downhill stretch
of the golf course that parallels
Park Ave.
! In practice of two days ago. the
Lion mentor concentrated on the
perfection of individual elements
of form and individual weak
points. The runners worked out
on their individual weaknesses
such as downhill running, uphill
running and timing.
Werner commented that the
practices have produced results
and could be classified as good.
Freshman coach Norm Gordon
said that the turnout for the frosh
squad has been poor. Anyone in

team can contact him in 237 A

White Sox Rest
After Clincher
CHICAGO (/P) While this
; baseball-delirious city began to
[calm down a bit yesterday, the
j American League champion White
j Sox rested for an anticlimatic
, series with the Tigers in Detroit
ithis weekend.
Manager Al Lopez, scouting the
San ' Francisco Giants in their
game with the Chicago Cubs, I
turned over the Sox to Coach]
Tony Cuccinello. j
Lopez said that although a few
Sox players may be rested in the
three-set finale at Detroit, his
club would not just be going
through the motions.
“Detroit is fighting for third
place with the Yankees and Balti
more,” said Lopez. “We have to
play the best we think we can]
under the circumstances.” i
Lopez will remain in Chicago,!
scouting the Dodgers against the!
Cubs, or visiting Milwaukee to!
watch the Braves against Phila-j
delphia this weekend, while the]
Wihte Sox are winding up in
Detroit.
■ “We may bench Little Looie
shortstop Louis Aparicio and a
few others who need rest,” said
Lopez. “But Nellie Fox stays in
there—he’s working on a consecu
tive game string, you know.” Fox
played his 666th stfaight game
last night in Cleveland when the
White Sox clinched the pennant
with a thrilling 4-2 conquest of
the second-place Indians.

Miller Out
With the opening game only)
two days away, the Nittany
Lion soccer team received a]
costly blow when Gary Miller,
two-year letterman for the
Blue and White booters. re
ceived a severe charlevhorse
that may keep him out of the
action for a week.
The versatile veteran sustained
the injury in a practice session
and will definitely be out of the
lineup for Saturday’s opener at
Bucknell.
If was a tough blow for Lion
mentor Ken Hosterman, who
has been beleaguered with trou
bles that started when captain
Billy Fiedler failed to return
to school this semester.
Miller, a starting halfback last
year, had moved up to the cen
ter forward position and was tak
ing Fiedler’s place as the inspira
tional spearhead of the line.
Miller was one of the team’s
leading scorers last fall playing
out of his halfback position and
has also had experience at inside.
He was being counted on heavily
by Hosterman to provide the scor-

tomorrow night in Los Angeles

Head Coach Johnny Michelosen
of Pitt said he planned to start
Dave Kraus at the signal-calling

Meanwhile, the Panthers drilled
on pass offense and defense and
