THE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA * * * Lion Cubs Whip Pitt Frosh, 22-12 The unpredictable Penn State freshman football team, though outgained on th e, ground and in the air, made) 'ise of the "big" play four 'lnes Saturday to register a 1-12 victory over a tough Pitt •osh eleven. The win evened the slate at 1 for Coach Earl Bruce's grid :rs who lost their first game three years when they dropped le opener last week to West irginia, 14-6. It was the first ime, for the highly-touted Pitt .osh. A 95-yard kickoff return by tailback Chris Weber, an er .ant center which sailed over he head of the Pitt punter ;landing in the end zone, a 22- yard passing play from Pete Liske to Junior Powell and a 'O -yard interception return by Powell accounted for the Lion Cubs' four scores. Weber spirited the underdog ittany novices to an inspired 'st half in which they built up 14-0 lead, when he took the opening kickoff all the way to give the Lions a lightening quick 6-0 advantage. The 180-pound halfback bobbled the reception on the 5-yard line but scooped it up, took off to the left side, cut back to the right, shook off two tacklers as he turned the corner and galloped down the sidelines to paydirt, A few minutes later the Nit fanies had two more points on a safety when Pitt center Bob Ostrosky centered the ball out the end zone on an attempted punt. A key pass from Liske to Dave; Robinson, giving the Cubs a firstl down on the Pitt 23 set the stage for the second Penn State , touch-, down midway through the sec ond quarter. A couple plays later Liske hit Powell in the right flat and the fleet scatback eluded three tacklers and shot into the corner of the end zone for the six-pointer. The Panthers came back to dominate play in the second half With second-string quarterback Glen Lehner moving the team in place of the much publicized Jim Traficant, the Pitt frosh marched 45 yards for their first score early in the third period. Lehner's long pass to Bob Long on the 16-yard line was the key play in the scoring drive. The pace quickened late in the fourth quarter as Pitt tried to mount a desperation drive while time was rapidly running out. Twice the Panthers gambled on fourth down in their own terri tory and made it. With Traficant throwing the pigskin, Pitt had advanced as far as the Penn State 18 before Pow ell leaped in front of an intended Panther receiver, snatched the ball and, without breaking stride, sprinted unmolested for th e clincher. Liske skirted left end for the two-point conversion to boost the score to 22-6. The game was capped in a style fashionable to the after-1 noon's play as Pitt's Paul Beisser hauled in the ensuing kickoff onl his goal line and ran around the; right side of the entire Penni State team for a climatic 100-yard TD.

A; Nittany Soccermen Upset by Colgate The Red Raiders of Colgate University ended an 18-year drought as they defeated the Penn State hooters, 4-1, Saturday at Hamilton, N.Y. It was the first win for Colgate over the Lions in a series that originated in 1941. Penn State had previously defeated the Raiders 17 straight times. Coach Ken Hosterman said Col -I * * * gate's win was the result of a hustling performance. It was a sweet victory for Mark Randall's Raiders since they lost to the Lions last year in overtime, 2-1. If was an equally bitter pill for Coach Hosterman as his Lions now stand at 1.3 for the season Colgate scored early in the first period on a penalty kick. The Lions tied it a few minutes later in the same period. Gar v Miller booted in the Nittanies goal from 15 yards out after taking a pass from Captain Pete `Vadsw•orth. The Lions had control of the ball the rest of the first quarter and for most of the second stanza. Then with a few min utes remaining in the half, Col gate got a break. Usually sure handed Lion goalie Dave Grubbs couldn't get the handle on a slow Colgate dribbler and the ball deflected off his hands into the Nitlany goal. The half ended with the Raiders leading, 2-1. In the second half, the Lions could not crack the Colgate de fense. Meanwhile the Raiders managed to add a score in the third and fourth stanzas. The Gib son Signs third Colgate score was a high shot that Grubbs got his hands F or Pro Tour on, but could not hold, and the final Raider tally was the only, "clean" goal of the four scored' by the booters from Hamilton. Captain Wadsworth had this to say about the game: "We out played them, but every time we woud get rolling, Colgate would !get a break. We missed a few easy shots, and had some bad ;hick around the goal" .The statistics behr out what the State Captain said. State .had 8 corner kicks to Colgate's 3, 20 saves to Colgate's 18, and 35 shots attempted to Colgate's 37.
