Nittanies Seek to !twin
Slipping Prestige, Today
The Penn State football
team -will be out to regain
some of its lost,prestige when
the Lions take on Syracuse to
day at 1:30 before a Beaver
Stadium crowd, that is almost
a cinch to break the single
game attendance record.
Some 49,000 Homecoming Day
fans are expected to be on hand
to watch the revamped Nittanies
(3-1) battle the 'Orange tl-2.) in
the East's top gridiron attraction.
The Lions were ambling along
as the nation's third-ranked team
until they lost a 9.8 heartbreaker
to Army last week. Now they
aren't even ranked in the mythi
cal Top Ten.
Perfect football weather is
forecast for ENWU Stadium this
afternoon. Bright sunshine is
expected to accompany pleas
antly-warm temperatures. A
high of 70 degrees is likely.
Winds will bo loss than 10 mils*
an hour from the southwest.
A convincing' win over , Syra
cuse this afternoon would go a
long way in boosting States na
tional ranking., but Lion coach
Rip Engle is much more con
cerned with lust" beating the
Orange to worry about how the
Nittanies fare in any polls.
"WE'RE FACED with a very
tough assignment against Syra
cuse." Engl, said. - They - are a
very good defensive team."' -
Being described as "a very
good defensive team" is almost
enough to' make Orange coach
Ben Schwartswalder cringe.

The Orangemen were excellent
defensively in their first two
games.. but lost both of those con
testy, dropping a 7-3 decision to
Oklahoma and a 9-2 verdict to
Army.
So last week Schwartawalder
made some wholesale changes , in
the Syracuse lineup. The moves
all paid off and the Orange came
cut on top of a 12-0 score with
Boston College.
The veteran Orange coach will
stick with that lineup today, but
State's Engle has juggled his
starting team.
There will be three new facet
in the first unit lineup this after.
noon.
ONE CHANGE finds sopho
mdre Frank Hershey replacing
Junior Powell at right halfback.
Hershey has been impressive IA
practice the last two weeks and
made two key receptions against
Army.
The other two changes are in
the line, Junior' Jim WiMama re
places captain Joe Galardi u the
starting center and Gerry - rarkas
has reclaimed his right tackle
post from Terry Monaghan.
Engle had particular praise—for
Williams after the Army game,
citing the smallish 190-pounder
for his work as middle line
backer.
Farkas was a starter in the
Lions' first two games, but
his job to Monaghan for the Rice
and Army clashes.
THE REST of the State lineup
wilt remain the same with Pets
Liske at quarterback, Roger
Kochman at left half and Dave
Hayes_ at fullback.
Joe Blasenstein and Harrison
Roarlahl will be the starting
guards, big 250-pound Chuck Sie
minski is the left tackle and Dave
