Penn Slate as a guard. He wet ;

the country were knocking at the’
Kohlhaas door in Shiremans-j

He had nearly 50 offers from'
the big football schools but chose,
Penn State for physical educa

football players out there that j
California colleges were no :
good. That helped me decide to :
come to Penn Stale."
And Engle and company are
mighty glad Kohlhaas made the 1
choicejie did. |
■ “Bud’s a real fine football play
er.” Engle said yesterday, “he
works hard, has plenty of fight
and took the change from center
to guard in stride.”
Kohlhaas' line coach Jim O'-
Hora explained the reason for
the switch. "Bud came here at
a bad time. He played center
during his freshman year but
in spring practice he was play
ing behind two of the best cen
ters in the East—Charley Rus
lavage and Sieve Garban.
“So we decided to switch Bud
to guard and the move has worked
out fine for everyone. He im
proved greatly since his sopho
more year and now he’s reaching
his peak.
“Besides being an excellent
football player,” O’Hora contin
ued, he’s a real leader out on the
field.”
1 Bud's happy he made the
jswitch too. “At first I was a little
! won led but then I realized there
were some pretty good boys ahead
[of me. Actually I didn’t ‘caie
[about playing guard because I
[knew I wold have a better
chance to see action ”
And after four years here Kohl-j
hass has no qualms about corning!
to the Nittany Valley, “I’ve really!
enjoyed being here,” Kohlhaas!
said, “I know when I leave I’ll
have gotten a lot out of school.
I might not have been so
luckv in some other school.”

today’s delayed opener at Comiskey Park.

Because of limited capacity of

there were reports that tickets
