If the thought has crossed your mind that
there's too much of a good thing going around
for engineering students lately, we don’t
blame, you. We‘are making no exaggerated
promises. In fact, we are looking to you and
to other engineering students for promise to
bring to us. .There’s a switch!

a committee headed- by Dii
Packer. Packer was the Li<
hooters' captain in <955, and/i

The Nittanles won the nation
championship both years.
Jeffrey coached soccer at Sta
for 27 years (1927-52)' and duru
his tenure the Lions product
eleven undefeated seasons —citfl
in succession. His overall recoi
was 154 wins, 24 losses! and ;

Under Jeffrey, .the Nittany

1031, 1933-40 and 1949. During
i the eight-year 1933-1940 stretch,
[they plnycd-60-games-and wore
tier? only five times.
JEFFREY CONSIDERS his 1055
team to be his best. That year the
Lions not only won all seven
games, but they were .also un-_
scored on. State’s closest call that
season was a 1-0 overtime, win
over Lafayette.
The Lions had 36 All-Amen-j
cans during Jeffrey’s regime.:
Only in 1942, ’44, ’5l, and ’52 did'
State not produce an All-Ameri-;

Bowl games. The 1949 team tied
San Francisco, 2-2, while the 1950
squad topped Purdue, 3-1.
During the thirties and fourties,
when State's hooters were the top
team around; ‘Collegiate Soccer
action was confined mainly to the
East, and Jeffrey recruited most
of his players from areas close to
State College and; frequently
got many of Ills players directly
from' State College High.
"1 got most of m{. 1 ' boys from
Centre County," Jeffrey' said.
"In fact. State College High sent
us more players than, any other
school. But in the last' few years,
they have dropped soccer and so
have all the 1 other schools in the*
county.
"IN THE PAST decade, the
gamb has grown everywhere but
in Centre County. .The growth of
the colegiate’ game has been fan
tastic. When wa were the top
team m the East, we were auto
matically national chhmpions, But
the teams in the West and in the
Big Ten have taken up the sport
recently too.
"With the growth everywhere
else and the decline around this
nrea,—it -hr naturally-reflected in
State’s record because there arc
no soccer-playing high schools
around from which to draw
; players," he concluded.
As a result of this de-emphasis
of soccer in Centre Bounty, State
is now suffering through its
fourth straight losing season.
Whereas Jeffrey used to cull many
All-Americans from this area
the Hosterman brothers, for ex
ample there is not one local
boy on this year’s squad, which
has won one of six games. Five
losses was unheard of in. Jeffrey’s
time he had only five teams
that lost more than one game I ;
State’s hooters won the cham
pionship trophy so often that they
retired it and It’s now on display
in one of the Rec Hall trophy
cases.
Two of Jeffrey’s teams made
overseas trips for exhibitions, The
.1933 squad went to Scotland
during the summer of .1934, The
1950 team went to Iran during
the spring of 1951 at the request
iof the State Departrqent,
