Don't Worry About TOidl(wedick
By RON KOLB
Collegian Sports Editor
Ted Kwalick lias caught six passes for 70 yards. Not in 4 one
.game; in three. Not all at one time; on six different plays. Not
with one hand: with two.
If it were Ted Kwalick of Platteville College, hardly a soul
would notice the statistics. But it's Ted Kwalick of Penn State,
the All-American tight end who's expected to catch 60 passes
for 700 yards, at the very least, per game.
So everyone is worried. Fans are worried because they
fear Ted Kwalick is killing his chances of repeating as an All-
American. Sportswriters are worried because, heck, Penn
State can only last so long without Kwalick's hands.
Two people don't seem to be worried a bit. One is Toe
Paterno. The other is Ted Kwalick.
Not Needed?
"I'm not really concerned," Kwalick said after a spirited
practice session yesterday. "I've gotten some double cov
erage, but actually, our running game has been so good that
we haven't had to pass that much."
The 6-4, 230-pound senior superstar has even been part of
the running himself, picking up 53 yards orr seven carries,
includ:ng a touchdown, on the end-around play. However, in
the air. quarterback Chuck Burkhart has yet to strike the
grasp of Kwalick on crucial situations.
"Chuck's a good quarterback right now." Kwalick said,
"He's had a couple games experience and I think he's doing a
good job. It's just that our timing has been a little off on same
situations."
"Guys go and scout our games," Paterno said, "and they
return and say 'the guy we have _to stop is Kwalick.' So they
might put extra coverage on him. But even though he hasn't
caught that many passes doesn't mean he's doing a bad job."
On the contrary, Kwalick's coach thinks he's doing a bet
ter job than last season, when he caught 34 passes for 563
yards and four touchdowns. His name may not show up in the
statistics as often, but then nobody counts blocks, either.
Still All-American
"I feel he's doing awfully well," Paterno added. "He does
everything better than before. As far as I'm concerned, he's
still an All-American, the best tight end in college football."
.Part of the reason that Kwalick hasn't been a prime
target has been the passing inconsistency. Part has also been
the burden taken up by split end Leon Angevine and halfback
Charlie Pittman.
Angevine, a senior who hadn't played at end before this
season, leads the receivers with 10 catches for 136 yards, while
Pittman has caught five for 93 yards. It's taken considerable
pressure off the All-American while relocating it in the op
ponents' defensive secondary.
"I'm not really thinking about being an All-American," he
said. "I'm just trying to help the_ team as much as I can."
And if there was any time Ted Kwalick wanted to help the
.tearn, it's this weekend against UCLA. There's not a member
of the current Nittany Lion squad that has beaten the .Bruins,
and this is the last time for at least 10 years that State will
play this, or any, West Coast team.
"They beat us both times I played them," Kwalick said.
"Two years ago they beat us in Los Angeles, 49-11. We were
humiliated. Then last year they beat us 17-15. I think we owe
them one."
He personally owes them something too. In the first me
eting when he was a sophomore, Kwalick only caught one pass
for 13 yards. Last season he was held to three grabs and 37

He's Still All-American ...Paterno
Yaids. This year, this Saturday, he gets a final chance at the
Bruin defense.
Paterno also realizes that the coming encounter, poll-wise
or otherwise, is the biggest of the season, though he still refers
to it as "just another game." Still uncertain as to whether
Don Abbey will return to the starting backfield, he realizes
there is still much work to be done.
"Everything has to improve," he said. "We have to get
better at a lot of things. We need more consistency, and we

HE MAY NOT be catching too many passes this season, Mike Slater (24) and crashed into the end zone for the
but as a runner, All-American tight end Ted Kwalick is touchdown. The first-period score came on a fourth-and
quite a threat. On this play last Saturday, he took a hand- one situation. gwalick has,now run the same play seven
off on the end-around play, bowled over Mountaineer Ernes, gaining 53 yards.
Let's join forces.,
