WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 19, 1960 Werner Feels Didn't Decide Despite a 23-34 win over Michigan State Saturday, Penn State cross country coach Chick Werner feels the Lion har riers still have a long way to go before making any claims on the NCAA championship. "This meet didn't decide the NCAA meet. State may have had an off day * * * and we didn't look that impres sive in winning," Werner said. "However, this is certainly an above average team and one to be respected," the Lion coach said Assistant coach Norm Gordon felt th e defending national champs were thin and not as well conditioned as in the past. "This was their first meet of the season and they could easily come back in the nationals with a couple of months more practice," Gordon said. Michigan State coach Fran Dittrich was disappointed irith the showings of several of his star runners. His biggest disappointment was Spartan captain Billy Reynolds. In last year's meet with Penn State, Reynolds finished second to one of the Spartan's all-time greats, Forddy Kennedy. Reynolds also finished sec ond in the Big Ten meet, sixth in the IC4A. and fourth in the NCAA in 1959. . "Reynolds didn't run up. to ex pectation but the heat could have been his trouble. Heat affects him in a race more than any other man on the team," Dittrich said. Jerry Ward, who also was ex pected to be one of the Spar tan's top point getters this sea son. finished in sixth position, only one place better than last' year against the Lions. George Talu, running his first meet since 1958, finished far back of the field in last place, more than five minutes behind the winning time of 25:45.8. Dittrich had been counting Erdelate Raiders Win 'On Desire and Spirit' OAKLAND, Calif. (A) "A bunch of guys named Joe," was the way Coach Eddie Erdelatz de scribed his Oakland Raiders when the club reported to training camp last summer. Others described the club as the orphan of the new American Foot ball League because it came in late and missed participation in the first draft of college stars. Orphans no longer. the Oakland club has won three of its last four league games after dropping the first two to Dallas and Houston. "Tremendous desire and spirit," says Erdelatz of his club that Sun day beat the Boston Patriots 27-14 at Kezar Stadium. The Raiders had come back from a road trip on which they turned the tables on both Dallas and Houston but lost to the Denver Broncos. Now they hit the road again for games at Buffalo, New York and Boston.
