Froth Footbalkirs • Balm; Most Positions Still Wide Open True to the Penn State traditions freshman grid coach Earl Bruce has two units of almost equal calibre to employ in the upcoming season. Bruce didn't particularly plan it that way, but so far in two w l eeks of practice he has been unable to select his top eleven. When asked who he thought his starting team. would be in the opening game with Syracuse Oct. 20, Bruce replied, "I really. couldn't say, who my top boys are 'right now. The battles for most of the positions seem to be fairly, even.' We know who our top 22 'men are, but it is very hard to choose between them ' So far the veteran grid mentor has been holding practice sessions daily with one scrimmage during the week. In describing the Last Saturday's scrimmage Bruce said, 'Mae line play was about the same on both sides however one backfield was stronger than the other. This is due to our recruiting practice this past year when we were more interested in getting linemen rather than backs. - Because we recruited only five backs, our other backs have to be drawn from the non-scholarship boys who have come out on their own." The most impressive backfield thus far has had ,Dick Gingrich at quarterback, Don Nunit ai4d Dave MONaughton at hilfb4k and Bob Riggle at fullback. THE FROSH have proved to be ironmen as far as injuries are concerned. Gary Eberle's bruised leg is the only injury , of any consequence. Three position changes have re sulted from the shuffling to see who can play where. Gerry San dusky is now- playing end,; -Bob Andronici has been shifted to center, and Don Steinbacker is working out at guard.
