Penn State's booters face
their third stiff test in three
games when they try to knock
powerful Maryland from the
unbeaten ranks this morning
on the Lion turf at 11.
The soccer field is located at the
end of Pollock Road near the Ice
Pavillion.
Lion coach Kenny Hosterman
has switched his front line for
the important
contest
The change
was necessitated
by a knee injury
to regular right
wing, Eddie Hi
nojosa. Since
Nosterman is
strong at center
forward, with
both Kenny Link
and Ted Jones
on hand, he has
switched Jones
to wipg for today's encounter
Hov ie Farrer has been moved
to inside left, Link will handle
center-forward, Tom Flanagan
will play inside right, and Glenn
Ream will hold down right
wing.
Hosterman has depth and ver-:
satility in his line as he still has,
regular Val Djurdjevic in re.-
serve. Hosterman ca n insert
Djurdjevic and switch the others
around since all but Ream have;
played more than one positiow
this year.
The real question for Hoster
man this morning is whether
State can slow down the high
geared Terp offense. Maryland has
scored 17 goals in just three
games.
The Terps, last year's NCAA
runners-up, are shooting for win
number four. Already they
have downed Virginia, 3-0. clob
bered North Carolina Stale,
10-0. and nipped Army, 4-3.

Elmira Express Rolls
Into Beaver Stadium
"Stopping Ernie Davis is like trying to stop a runaway
express." That's quite a statement to make, but coming from
Syracuse coach Ben Schwartzwalder, it carries quite a hit of
authority.
For three years now, opposing players have been trying
to stop the "Elmira Express," and the results have been any
thing but satisfactory. This after
noon Penn State faces the task of
either stopping Davis or going
down to its third defeat and the
job might he difficult.
So far in his career at Syra
cuse, few teams have been able
to successfully complete the
task. Last week against Nebras
ka the powerful 6-2, 210-pound
er toppled Syracuse's career
touchdown record by scoring
two touchdowns. Thai raised his
career total to 27 and it bettered
the old mark of 25 TD's set by
Jimmy Brown, the Cleveland
Browns' star.
Davis also is closing in on two
other Syracuse records held by
Brown: career scoring and career
yardage. Davis needs only 18
points to outdo the 187 scored by
Brown and needs only 195 yards
to better Brown's rushing total of
2,091.

"Ernie has to be the best run
ning back in college football to
day," Schwartzwalder said. "He
has the rare combination of size
and speed that makes for a great
back."
When asked to compare Da
vis and Brown, the Orange
coach neatly sidestepped the
question. "Brown and Davis are
different types," he said. "Jim
my may have been a little big
ger and had a little more power,
but maybe Ernie can do some
things that. Jimmy couldn't."
The question is one that soft
spoken Davis does not worry
about. "Guys like Jim Brown come
once in a million years. I'm trying
to do the best I can. I just want
to play like Ernie Davis."
Here's the way Schwartzwalder
talks about his All-American. "In
our opener with Oregon State, he
came up with two sprained ankles
and a shoulder so badly bruised
that he couldn't lift his arm above

Juggle Starting Lineups
No, Rip Engle and Ben Schwartzwalder aren't getting a
cut of today's program receipts—it's just that Syracuse has
eight gridders sidelined with injuries and Engle has decided
to revamp Penn State's lineup for today's Beaver Stadium
battle with the top team in the East.
With all the new faces expected to see action today, the
fans will literally need a scorecard
to tell the players, and visiting
scouts will probably think they
made a wrong turn at Lewistown.
And to make L. strong point
even stronger, Engle is prob
ably scratching his head this
morning trying to come up with
a starting eleven.
The Ripper said yesterday that
he plans to bring 14 players be
fore ABC's Tv cameras w h en h e
introduces his "starting" lineup
during the customary pre-game
festivities.
A crowd of 45,000 is expected to
watch the battle for eastern su
premacy under cold, cloudy sty's,
w hil e uncoun t e d Tv v i ewers
throughout the East will watch
the regionally telecast contest
from their favorite armchairs.
Starting time is 2 p.m.
No doubt about it. Engle
has his problems today, but
Schwartzwalder would prob
ably trade places with him in
, a minute.
The Syracuse coach has Six
players sidelined with broken
hands, starting quarterback Dave
Sarette has a bruised shoulder,
and guard Dave Metgyesv just
got out of the Syracuse infirmary
where he was bedded down with
an infected arm.
"I honestly can't say right now,"
Schwartzwalder said yesterday
when asked if SW ette would play.
Serene himself was a little
more emphatic. "As of now I

yesterday as he relaxed in his
hotel room at the Penn-Belle
in Bellefonte.
"I haven't been under center all
week and when I tried to limber
up today I couldn't do much."
Sarette injured his shoulder
against Nebraska last week when
was tackled near the sidelines
and fell over a bench.
Meggyesy is expected to start
at guard despite his stay in the
