Scoring Zip
Needed By
'6l Booters
(This is the first in a series of
articles on the Penn State soccer
team. Today, the offense.)
By CRAIG YERKES
Last year's Penn State soc
cer team desperately lacked
one thing that could have
made its 3-7 record read the
oilier way—scoring punch.
Only ten times all season did
the Nittanies push the leather
ball into enemy nets. For those
not up on their math, this aver
ages out to one goal per game,
not much of a margin for a
defense to protect.
Only once did the Lions man
age to score more than two
goals in a game. That was
against Syracuse when State
pushed across three quick first
period scores. The Orangemen
have since dropped soccer. '
As a result of
last year's pot-
scoring record
is safe to say th
the Lions' froi
line will be itn
proved this yep
but how mu
improved?
Depth could
the key to t
question as coa
Ken Hosterm,
will have alma!
two complete
front lines ready Howie Farrtr
for use if necessary.
Four lettermen return from last
year's squad and three of them,
Howie Farrer, Vat Djurdjevic,
and Glenn Ream, were regulars
on last y'ear's front line.
The fourth letterman, Kenny
Link, saw action both at center
forward and fullback. Hosterman
switched him to the front line
this year in hopes that Link will
add some punch to the Lion at
tack.
Farrer performs at left wing
and has been a leader in the
State attack for two seasons.
Ream played his first varsity
game as a junior last season and
was hampered most of the time by
a bad ankle. This fall the ankle
has been taped heavily and he
has run well thus far.
Guy and George Jackson, the
sophomore twins, have made
Ream and Farrer hustle and Hos
tel-man could call on either to
spell the lettermen at wing.
Guy was second high scorer
on last year's unbeaten frosh
team. Both are extremely fast
and have good control over the
ball, but must gain accuracy in
their shooting. •
What the Lions really lacked
the past few seasons was a hard
shooting center forward.
Serviceman Te d Jones, a
transfer from Lincoln University,
or holdover Link may prove to he
the leader the Lions need in their
front line.
Hosterman has run both Jones
and Link at this position all

As No. 1 In Nation
lowa's Hawkeyes maintained
their grip on the No. 1 spot
among the nation's football
teams today, and powerful
Mississippi continued as the
INo. 2 team.
The weekly poll of the Associat
ed Press board of experts gave
the two clubs over three-quarters
of the first-place votes and a ma
jority of those for second place.
Both were 1-2 after the first week
ly poll.
But after the Hawkeyes and
Ole Miss, things became rather
scrambled. Georgia Tech, not
among the top ten a week ago,
zoomed into third place, after
walloping a strong Rice team
24-0 Saturday for its second
victory in as many starts.
Alabama remained fourth. Oth
ers, in order were Texas, Michi
gan State, Syracuse, Ohio State,
Michigan and Baylor.
The last two were not among
the elite last week, either, but
UCLA, ninth, last week, and Penn
State, eighth, both were losers
over the weekend and dropped
out, as did Rice, seventh a week
ago.
Tiros has broadened man's scope of the heavens

Tiros is only one of many RCA successes in the
wide, wide world of electronics. And as the horizons
of electronics steadily expand, the need for more
and more competent and creative engineers in
creases in direct ratio. That's why RCA, now in
the forefront of electronic progress, offers such
tremendous opportunities for Electrical Engineers,
Mechanical Engineers, and Physicists.
If you already know what you want to do in
engineering ... and are qualified, RCA can offer
you direct assignments in your chosen field, and
back you up with training and guidance, by ex
