Maryland's sophomore end
Dick Absher sat on the
bench with his head in his
hands. All he could say was
"I had the ball m my hands
and then I dropped it."
Going into Saturday's
Terps-Lions clash, the big
Maryland end, who is al
ready being sought after by
several pro clubs, was lead
ing his teammates in the
pass receiving department.
He had pulled down 11
aerials for 126 yards.
With about 3:00 minutes
to go in the game, and the
Terrapins on the Lions' 38,
Absher caught his third pass
of the afternoon and raced
to the 17. For a moment he
was a hero.
Absher Bobbles Ball
Three plays later, quarter
back Jim Corcoran spotted
his ace end on the goal line
and threw what appeared
to he P touchdown. Absher
bobbled the ball temporarily
and then dropped it after
being hit by State's Frank
Hershey. Just as easily as
that, Absher crossed the
thin line separating the hero
from the goat.

coach Torn Nugent was
looking back on the hows
and whys of his squad's
fifth loss of the season.
"We have a total of six
sophomores in the starting
lineup including the boys
at lett guard and right end
plus the entire backfield.
First year men make some
mistakes and our sopho
mores made the usual num
ber."
Nugent shouldn't complain
because had it not been for
the hard running of sopho
more Bo Hickey, the after
noon could have been a dis
aster for the visitors.
Good, Strong Runner
"Hickey is a good, strong
runner," the Maryland head
coach said Friday after
watching his squad go
through a final light ‘‘c,
out. How strong a runner
he is became apparent the
following afternoon.
The rookie tailback led all
rushers with 124 yards in
18 carries. and threw a
scare into the hearts of Penn
State fans early in the
fourth quarter. With the
Terps trailing 17-9, Hickey
took a handoff from Cor
coran and scampered 59
yards before being hauled
down by Bud Yost on
State's nine-yard line.
Defense
tefeat
The only position where
the inexperience seemed to
hurt most wa , : at quarter
back. Nugent alternated the
chores between sophomore
Phil Petry and Corcoran
who is a junior.
"I kept. changing my
quarterbacks because one is
good at one thing (Petry as
a passer) and one good at
the other (Corcoran as a
runner)," Nugent said.
"Staying with either of the
two wouldn't have mat
tered."
Problem at Linebacker
The Terps' big problem,
though, was in their line
backing position. Jerry Fish
man and Lone McQueen,
the visitors' top men at the
slot, were of little or no
use. Fishman, who suffered
a bad shoulder injury early
in the season, saw limited
action. McQueen also
warmed the bench most of
the afternoon, recovering
from the ill effects of the
flu.
"It was a question of re
placing boys weighing 220
(Fishman) and 210 (Mc-
Queen) with boys going 210
and 105." Nugent said.
The latter two .vere Lou
Bury and Milan Vucin, re
spectively, who did a credi
ble job but lacked the size
and experience of Fishman
and McQueen.
"Our linebackers couldn't
do the job in the clutch," the
Terps' mentor said. "I ex
pected Rip to run his full
back a lot because of our
inexperience at the positions
and he did."
That was an understate
ment. Tom Urbanik, the
Lions' hard running full
back, had his number called
29 times during the game
and had gained 109 yards
before the final gun
sounded.
Nugent pointed out Ur
bank's fine effort and also
praised the play of middle
guard Glenn Ressler. Res
sler, who is improving with
each game, if that's possible,
blocked a point after touch
down attempt by Maryland's
kicking specialist, Bernardo
Bransom. It marked the first
time this year that a Bran
som boot had been blocked.

PHILADELPHIA (R)—
Olympic star Lucius Jackson,
newest member of the Phila
delphia 76ers, said yesterday
the professional brand of bas
ketball, as played in the NBA,
is "unbelievable."
"I had no idea these fellows
; were that good," said the for
mer Pan American, Tex., Col-
Aege star and member of the
U.S. Olympic champions. "Ev
,ery one of them is a magician
;with a basketball.
I "If those folks in Tokyo
could see some of our top pro
!clubs in action, they wouldn't
'believe what they saw."
The 9-9 forward who made
an auspicious professional de
but last week, grabbing 14 re
bounds against the St. Louis
'Hawks, was impressed mostly
by the defense set up by the
pros.
"Some people told toe the'
NBA was all offense," said
Jackson, "hut that's not true.
There's plenty of defense in
this game.
"And did you ever see a
better defensive player than
Bill Russell? I had a chance to
see him operate the other night
and, man, he's too much,
There's a fellow who really
concentrates on defense."
According to Jackson, there
is no comparison between pro
and either college or Olympic
basketball.

By JOHN LOTT
Collegian Sports Editor
Penn State lost a race against the
clock, won a race against Bo Hickey
and won its third football game Satur
day. And except for Bud Yost's victory
over Hickey in the foot race, the game
might well have ended in a deadlock
instead of a 17-9 Lion victory over a
hungry band of Terrapins from Mary
land.
Less than a minute was gone in
the fourth period when Hickey, the set
halfback in Maryland's famed "1" for
mation, took a handoff, bowed past two
Lion tacklers and raced into the clear.
He appeared touchdown-bound, but
Yost, State's right end on defense, cut
diagonally across the field and barrelled
Hickey out of bounds on the Lion nine
yard line.
Three plays later State's Carry
Sandusky recovered a Maryland fumble
on the 11 to squelch the Terp threat.
"I never thought I'd get to him,"
Yost said. "I just didn't think I was that
fast, especially with my bad legs."
Except for another bad leg, Hickey
might not have gotten as far as he did.
Linebacker Ed Stuckrath, playing with
an ailing left leg, almost had Hickey at
the 15, but as Stuckrath said after
wards, "He just outran me."
If Hickey had made it into the end
zone, Maryland (2-5) would have gone
for the two-point conversion and could
have made it a tie. But as on three other
occasions, the staunch Lion defense
held firm in its own territory.
Ohio State (6-0) is next for the
Lions, winners of three of their last
four, and it'll take the best defensive
effort yet to stop Woody Hayes' power
ful Buckeyes. As State coach Rip Engle
said after practice last night, "We'll

have to play perfect football to beat
them."
After fullback Tom Urbanik car
ried the ball nine straight times for two
first-quarter touchdowns, the Lions
went as far as they could without get
ting a third score late in the second
quarter.
The race against the clock began
with less than two minutes left. State's
defense held on its 29, then marched
to the Maryland one as time ran out.
A 19-yard Gary Wydman pass to
13111 Huber put the ball on the one with
19 seconds left, but State had no time
outs left. Jack White tried to carry over
from the one but was stopped short as
the referee blew the ball dead with
16 seconds remaining.
But the Terp tacklers took their
time unpiling and when the gun
sounded, the Lions were frantically
(and unsuccessfully) trying to line up
for one more play,
Maryland took the opening kick
off and drove to State's 18 before stal
ling. Bernardo Bramson, the Terps'
soccer - kicking "human socreboard",
then booted a 35-yard field goal to
make it 3-0.
But State, perhaps knowing the
Terps had been ahead early in all pre
vious games, were unruffled and pro
ceeded to march 72 yards for a touch
down. Urbanik, who played the bsst
game of his career, carried on eight of
the 12 plays (State didn't pass at all
on this drive) and scored from the
three. Gerry Sanker booted the point
and it was 7-3.
It was 14-3 three minutes later.
Maryland had a second-and-16 situa
tion on its own 22 when quarterback
Phil Petry tried to hit end Dick Absher
The toss was deflected by State's
Dick Gingrich and one-handed by
Frank *Hedshey who returned it to the

12. Five Urbaniks later it was 13-3
and Sanker again kicked the PAT.
Midway through the second period,
Maryland scored its touchdown after
recovering an errant Wydman pitchout
on the State 15. Hickey, the sophomore
who led all rushers with 124 yards,
scored from the four, but Glenn Ressler
blocked Bramson's conversion attempt.
After a Lion drive stalled early in
the final period, Sanker kicked a per
fect 38-yard goal to make it 17-9. It
was the bespectacled soph's second of
the year and gave him 12 points in the
last two games.
. „ .NITTANY NOTES: Engle singled
out Ressler, Urbanik, Gingrich, Hershey
and defensive tackle John Deibert for
outstanding play Saturday . . . Ressler
played both ways much of the game be
cause of a shoulder injury to offensive
center Bob Andronici. The big All-
America candidate cleared the way for
both Urbanik's touchdowns . . . Wyd
man, who picked up 89 yards on 16
carries, had his best day as a runner.
He had a 27-yard scamper in the last
quarter . .. Maryland's players assumed
a "parade rest" position in the huddle.
All players stood with hands clasped
in the middle of the back . . Hershey
boomed a 66-yard punt in the second
quarter. His interception gave him
three for the year, all in the last two
games . . . Halfback Don Kunit carried
only five times, gained 43 yards . . .
Bramson's field goal set a modern Mary
land record of six for one season. His
blocked PAT attempt was his first miss
of the year in that department . . .
Seen on the State locker room black
board before the game: "Turtle season
opens today." After the game, "opens"
was crossed out and "closed" written
in. Someone added a post-script:
"Shortage of turtles."
