;nobody likes, not even the men,
jin the Army huddle,
j Both ate All-American can
j didates and are well on their
i way to achieving that status.
I Caldwell is one of the best pass
j ers in the nation, having com
pleted 30 passes in the Cadets'
first two games.
Caroenter, Army’s famed lone
ly end is the captain of the Cadet
squad and in the opener against
Boston College two weeks ago,
snagged nine passes.
That’s as many as Penn State s
leader Maurice Schleicher gath
ered in all last season.
When Caldwell's hitting and
Carpenter's on ih© receiving
end, they resemble Johnny
Uniias and Hay Berry of the
Baltimore Colts.
And if Penn State’s pass de
fense is as leaky as it was the
past two weeks against V.M.I.
and Colgate, the Nittanies are in
for trouble .on the banks of the
Hudson.
i It's all right to let passes get
j by against a team like Colgate,
j but the Lions just can't afford
, to lei it happen against Army.
i Penn State’s sudden. downfall
i in the pass defense department
was one of the biggest surprises
to hit the Beaver JField press box
during Saturday’s game. _
Scouts from Boston University,
Army and Illinois watched silent
ly but with smiles on their faces
as Colgate’s quarterback Bob
Paske passed for 284 yards and
three touchdowns.
Paske isn't even ranked a*
one of the better passers in the
country, but Caldwell is, and
Illinois' Bob Myers is fast be
coming one of the select group.
Last night Rip Engle and com
pany seemed a little worried over
the pass defense situation,
"Our secondary men are just
too small to break up some of
those pass plays,” Engle said.
"That’s where our main trouble
is.”
“Look who we have back there.
Jim Kerr, Dick Hoak, Dick Pae,
Jack Urban, Eddie Cave, Richie
Lucas and Galen Hall. Only Lu
cas is over six foot.
“How can they get up there and
break up passes intended for guys
like Evans (V.M.I. end) and Mac-
Kinnon (Colgate)?”
Someone said they did it
against Missouri, but then quar
terback coach Joe Paterno
chirped in and reminded him that
the Tigers didn’t throw that much

With Army’s great All-American halfback Bob Anderson
out of the lineup indefinitely, Penn State’s chances for a win
over the Cadets Saturday are a lot better.
Anderson, Army’s leading ground gainer last year, injured
his right knee Saturday when the Cadets’ were upset by
Illinois, 20-14.

j but sometimes they just can't
! break up the play," he said.
! “That’s football. Sometimes
you can do some things and oth
er times you can’t.”
Paterno’s right, but against the
Black Knights there won’t be any
room for mistakes or even one
slip up.
The Lions haven’t beaten Army
since 1899. They’ve lost six and
tied two in between.
The odds should switch <o Penn
State’s favor with Anderson out
but as Rip Engle says, “You can
never tell what will happen when
you play Army.”
“And to make things worse.’’
he added, “they’ll be roaring mad
because of their loss to Illinois
last week.”
So draw you own conclusions.
The Cadets have lost Anderson,
a two time All-American, and the
Lions have their best team m
years. It should be quite a ball
game.
