coach, has one of the top passing
teams in the nation.
With McCarthy doing most of
the pitching, the Crusaders have
gained over 1200 yards in seven
games. That figure makes Holy
Cross the third-best passing team
across the country.
Along with his passing, Mc-
Carthy has developed into an
excellent runner this year and
subsequently Holy Cross has
employed the run-pass option a
great deal in recent games.
Against Massachusetts last week
McCarthy rushed for 118 yards in
nine carries and completed 7 of
15 passes for 126 yards in the
first half. He scored touchdowns
on runs of 66, 8 and 1 yard.
Hennessey gives the Crusaders
an excellent breakaway threat and
A 1 Snyder, the other halfback, is
one of the top pass receivers
in t,he nation.
Stale isn't as aerial-minded
as Holy Cross, but the Lions
don't have to take a back seat
to anybody when it comes to
moving the ball.
State currently is the seventh
ranked team in the country in
total offense with 2,774 yards in
eight games.
Roger Kochman is leading the
way on offense with 486 yards
gained in 93 rushes for a 5.2
Lions, St, Francis

ris led the cagers with 21 and
17 points respectively. Calvin
Fowler and George Williams

each.
Coach John Egli was quits

end Bob Moses reached a peak
in his sparkling football career
this week when he won The Asso
ciated Press lineman of the week
award—but he made it the hard
way.

“the softest nose on the team,”
Moses roughed his way upward
in college football before catching

average. Kochman is headed to
ward State’s best individual rush
ing performance since 1958 when
Billy (The Kid) Kane ripped off
530 yards in 105 carries for a 5.0
average.
Kochman was held to 35
yards along the ground against
West Virginia last week, but in
the previous three games he
came up with totals of 107,
107 and 89-yards.
The rangy left halfback also
is doing well in other statistical
departments. He’s the team’s
second leading pass receiver with
9 receptions for 200 yards and
three touchdowns. And his two
scores along the ground put him
in second place behind Don Jonas
with 30 points. Jonas has 40.
Kochman should get plenty of
help today from State’s two
stellar fullbacks, Dave Hayes and
Buddy Torris.
Hayes missed the West Vir
ginia game with a sprained
ankle but he got the go-ahead
from team physician Alfred H.
Griess for this afternoon.
Torris played his best football
of the season in State’s last two
games. The former Jeanette, Pa.,
gridder gained 83 yards rushing
ineman-Qf-Week
ior year.
“He came up the hard way,”
Coach Darrell Royal said
yesterday. “He got knocked
around good as a sophomore and
hardly got into a ball game. He
got where he is through hard
work.”
The lanky 6-foot-3, 195-pounder
began to catch notice this year
when Royal opened up his game
with more passing.

. . . guard Lion flanks
against Maryland and 108 against
West Virginia.
Junior Powell will team with
Kochman at halfback in State’s
starting backfield. The little half
back is the top pass receiver on
the team with 13 catches for 272
yards and two touchdowns.
Galen Hall will be ai his
usual quarterback slot. Hall
hag directed the team to four of
its five victories. He missed the
final two periods of the 25-8
loss to Miami and the entire
10-6 upset loss to Army because
of a shoulder bruise.
Hall almost pulled out the
Maryland game after the Lions
were down 17-6 at the half, but
a drive stalled on the Maryland
three late in the fourth quarter.
Lion Coach Rip Engle will go
with his starting backfield on
offense and send in Bob Kline,
Pete Liske, A 1 Gursky and either
Torris or Hayes on defense.
The starting line will be the
same as last week. Bob Milinger
and Jim Schwab will be at end,
Jim Smith and Charlie Siemin
ski at tackle, Joe Blasenstein
and Dick Wilson at guard and
Jay Huffman at center.
Wilson, a three-year veteran,
started his first varsity game last
week when Harrison Rosdahl was
injured. Wilson impressed Engle
with his play at middle guard on
defense and he'll get another
crack as a starter despite the
recovery of Rosdahl.

Scouting Report
Crusaders Like To Pass
COACH: Dr. Eddie Anderson, the dean of
American football coaches, is wrapping up
j. t. whit* his 36th year a 3 a head coach. Anderson’s
clubs have won 186 games, lost 120 and played 14 ties.
LINE: Holy Cross has a good bunch of ends, led by Barry
Tyne, a good receiver, and Jack Fellin. Bob Hargraves is
hurt and probably won’t play Saturday. Their
first two tackles, Denny Golden and Jack [
Whalen, are as big it not bigger than our ‘
boys. Golden is 6-4, 220. Whalen is 6-1, 215. \
According to the Holy Cross coaching j
staff their best lineman is John Timperio, a
guard. Their centers are Jon Morris and Ed ‘
Lilly.
BACKSi Pat McCarthy, their quarterback, j
is probably the best rollout passer we’ll meet ,
this year. He runs hard and could make j
most teams as a halfback. He made our all- l
opponent team last year as a sophomore and
our kids know he’s tough. Tom Hennessey, a halfback, will
be the fastest man on the field Saturday. He’s what I call a
‘desire’ football player. He goes all-out on every play. A 1 Sny
: der, their other halfback, is probably the top
■! pass receiver on the team. He’s also a shifty
; runner and gets that extra yardage. Gerry
I; Wheeler is one of the smallest fullbacks
, we’ll face this year (5-8, 185) but I think he
% may give us some trouble. He’s shifty and
' he gets a fast start. John Wheaton will back
' up McCarthy at quarterback and from the
way he played against Massachusetts last
week, it’s going to be hard to tell the two
apart. He runs the rollout in much the same
manner as McCarthy and he’s a good passer.
Tom Hennessey EVALUATIONi This is basically the same
team that we faced last year. Except for that opening game
loss to Villanova (the Wildcats had two games under their
belts) and'the Syracuse loss, Holy Cross has looked extremely
good this year.
