Nittanies Seek Bowl Bid;
Liske Shoots for Record

pound speedster is ranked 14th
nationally in total receptions with
28 for 539 yards and three touch
downs. 1
While most of the attention
will be focused on the Holy Cross
backfield, their line play deserves
mention. After all, a team doesn't
run over even the likes of VMI
without some front-line support.
Outweighed by 10 pounds per
man, the Crusader forward wall
has the reputation of keeping on
rushing tacklers away from Mc-
Carthy just long' enough for him
to have adequate time to pick out
his receivers.
“Their line was bolstered con
siderably bv the„.retbrn of injured
tackle Denny. Golden,” White re
ported. Golden, a 6-4, 228-pourid
senior has. been billed for All-
East honors.
■ Center Jon Morris is a lineman
highly thought of by : the pros.
John Westfield will join Golden
atithe other tackle slot with soph
omore Tom Nissi and junior Bob
Murphy at the guards. Bob
Hargraves and Pat; Vetrano will
start at the ends.
The Nittanies will be following
their best offensive performance
in many a year as they gained a
total oi 535 yards enroute to a
record 38 first! downs last week
against West \hrginia. . •
• Chief among the Lion execu
tioners were fullback Buddy
Torris. and halfback Roger Koqh
man. This Kochman-Torris per
formance won't come as good
news to Holy Cross, because this
pair tore the Crusaders apart for
277 yards last season.
Torria-seems to thrive on a late
season bursts, as he really came
into his own for the first 'time
last year against the Crusaders,
rushing for-144 yards in 22 carries.
Kochman leads the team in
rushing thus far.with 522 yards
in 103 carries. Starting fullback
Dave Hayes is in the’ runner-up
spot with 251 yards -in 64 thrusts.
Quarterback Pete Liske, im
proving with each play, is fast
closing in on Richie Lucas’ tosal
offense record. Liske has today
and next week against Pitt’to gain
the 211 yards passing and run
ning necessary to erase Lucas'
1,238 yard mark. '
Also, the 6-1, 190-paund signaj
caller needs only one more touch
down pass to erase the record of
nine held jointly by E. E. Miller.
Elwood Petchel and himself.
Halfback-Junior Powell is flirt
ing with the record for pass re
ceptions and if . the “Lewistoiyn
Express” gets rolling for five more
receptions ’ today, he’ll break
Jesse Arnelle's 1952- record of
33 grabs. .Powell also has
at .the career, record of 59 set by
Lenny Krouse from 1939 to
Powell has caught 44 since he
joined the varsity and still has a
season to go:
Lineman Dave Robinson and
Charlie Sieminski will be out to
bolster-their All-America creden
tials:. Both'have'been named 1 to
the All-East weekly team.-Robin

risen (Hatch) Rosdahl and Joe
Blasenstein have blossomed into
two of the best;in the East.
Rosdahl drew; praise for his fine
defensive play i against Syracuse,
mainly stemming from the fact
that it was he who blocked the
Oranges’ last-ditch field, goal at
tempt.
West Virginia coach Gene
Corum called ihim. "one of the
best . all-around guards we've
faced this-year:”
Blasenstein is a throwback to
the old fashioned. “hardnosed”
football player: He studies game
movies constantly, to im
prove’on his blocking anid rush
ing tactics. It was he -who is
credited 'with taking the edge off
Pilt’s Mike D/tkaUwo yphrs ago
when he belted ,tbe Panther end
with . a blind-side block that
seemed to take-the starch out of
the entire Pitt squad. i

at the other tackle slot. iDjck An

looks for another stellar perform
ance today. Particularly impres
sive last Saturday were sopho
more ends Bud Yost and Bill
Bowes. Yost recovered a key fum
bje early in the game and Bowes
caught a 19-yard scortpg strike
from Liske for the Lions’ second
score.
: Defensive safety Don Caum
will be a key factor in effectively
stopping McCarthy 1 today. Caum
was hailed by Corum as, "the
best defensive back we’ve faced
all j-ear," following his clutch pass
coverage, i t
Chuck Raisig. the nation’s -sec
ond leading punter,_ got but one
chance to exhibit his talents last
week and it didn’t count. But) it
probably won’t displease him too
much if he isn’t needed today, i
The consensus of opinion seems
to be that: if the Lions can con
tain McCarthy to any at
all they 'will emerge victoi’idus.
State' is '.a ‘ two-louehdown favor
ite; .
But the' Lions had better hot
be too confident that the point
spread will hold fast-. After all,
mighty Army was beaten by
three-touchdown underdog Okla
homa State.

ing off an upset victory over Tem
ple and having high hopes of a

ished 3-6 for iheir third straight
losing Season.
