Loyd
ORINDA, Calif. (AP) He's never
been slimed and he's never seen a
phantom, but parapsychologist Loyd
Auerbach says people are more inter
ested in what he does these days
thanks to the hit movie "Ghostbus
ters." •
. Auerbach, a faculty member in the
Parapsychology program at John F.
Kennedy University, is a private con
sultant on psychic matters. He says
his job has its difficulties.
"They're hard to get hold of," he
said of the apparitions that have
eluded his investigations. "It's not as
if you can get them to walk into your
lab, sit down, and start up a conversa
tion."
Auerbach, 28, is one of a small band
of professionals who conduct "spon
taneous case investigations" or
investigations of paranormal occur
rences outside of laboratory condi
tions.
The professionals call themselves
"psychical field researchers," or
parapsychological field investiga
tors." These days, however, they're

known as ghostbusters.
In the movie, Bill Murray, Dan
Aykroyd and Harold Ramis portray
three New York City parapsycholog
ists who launch a private enterprise,
"Ghostbusters," during an onslaught
of ghosts and nasty spirits that reach
es epic proportions.
They use high-tech wares to battle
the beasts and creatures that invade
a hotel, library and apartment house.
But in reality, Auerbach says, there
are no PK-valence detectors, no nu
clear-powered particle accelerators
and no devices that suck up subatom
ic matter.
"We'd love something like that
it'd make our lives a lot easier," he
said.
About hdlf of the spontaneous case
investigations seem to include an
element of psychic phenomena, the
others stem from a person's psycho
logical stress, Auerbach said.
There are about 300 practicing par
apsychologists, most of them residing
in the United States and Great Brit
ain, according to the 100-year-old

ing whom to call after they run into a

"To me, it is silly the way in which
Americans are totally unprepared to

said. "They run even from their

Booters tie N 0.15 Akron OM
By MARK ASHENFELTER
Collegian Sports Writer
In sports, excitement is usually
associated with scoring. The higher
the totals on the scoreboard the
happier the fans are. A low-scoring
game is often considered a waste of
time by the spectators in -atten
dance.
Soccer, as Akron and host Penn
State proved to 1,365 fans at Jeffrey
Field last evening, is an exception
to that rule. For the second time in
as many years, the two squads
battled to a 0-0 tie in 110-minutes of
action.
"I think that's one of the better
collegiate games that I've seen in a
long, long time," said Akron Head
Coach Steve Parker. "That was a
lot of fun watching it."
The Zips, ranked 15th by the In
tercollegiate Soccer Association of
America, started quickly and domi
nated the early moments of the
match. Akron controlled the ball at
the start and that appeared to both
er several of the Lions.
Fullback Greg Meares and for
ward Larry Miller were both hit
with yellow cards (for rough play)
within the first eight minutes of the
contest, and the Lions could not get
their offense moving.
Penn State could not capitalize on
its first opportunity with 9:50 gone
in the opening half. Forward Niall
Harrison broke past his man and
drew goalie Sean Burke out of the
cage, but his off-balance shot rolled
to the left of the goal mouth.
Akron blew one of its better
chances with 1:30 remaining when
forward Mike Berish blasted a shot
right at Lion goalie Greg Kenney.
The half ended with the Zips holding
a 6-5 edge in shots on goal.

Last night's soccer-match between Penn State
and Akron was called "lots of fun" by Akron
Head Coach Steve Parker; "well-played" by
Lion Head Coach Walter Bahr; "a great game"
by Lion forward Troy Snyder; and "some of the
best soccer we've played this year" by Akron
goalkeeper Sean Burke.
Well, then, what made this game so exciting?
Were both offenses setting up chances? Were
there any spectacular saves? How about the
score?
Yes, both offenses had opportunities to score
Yes, both goalkeepers made great saves.
No, there was no score.

As Penn State prepares for its
upcoming football season, a number
of recently- graduated Nittany Li
ons are gearing for a chance to
make it big in the NFL.
Though it is still early, the road to
NFL recognition looks to be a long
arid winding one for some ex-Lions,
and not so long for others.
But as exhibition games are tradi
tionally a showcase for the rookies,
several former Penn State players
have been given at least a chance to
prove their talents. With the wind
ing up of the NFL preseason last
weekend, and Sunday's first regular
season games, a total of seven mem
bers of the Lions' 1983-84 squad have
seen professional football action,
including such recognizable names
as Scott Radecic, Kenny Jackson,
Jon Williams and Harry Hamilton,
among others
As fame and glory goes' in the
football business, the NFL has
served up quite a challenge for
many of last year's graduates. Fac
ing a professional football career,
many are up against obvious nec
essary adjustments, and for the
most part, the former Lions have
held up well.
Hyperextending his knee in the
second game of Kansas City's exhi
bition season, linebacker Radecic
sat out the rest of the Chiefs' presea
son, but started practicing again
last Monday and said his knee is
heeling quickly. Before the injury,
Radecic had tallied four solo tackles
and two assists.
Co-captain for last year's slow
starting Lions and a reported mo
rale booster for Penn State, Radecic
has tasted the life of many NFL
players' attitudes and he's still
adjusting.
Penn State midfielder Troy Synder (top) tries to avoid being tackled by an Akron player in action last night at Jeffrey
Field. The Lions were able to keep the No. 15 Zips in check, but lacked offense of their own as the game ended in a O-
S deadlock.
first half and certainly the better of
the beginning of the second half,"
Parker said. "Penn State came
back strong, but both teams had
really strong opportunities."
The game, although ending in a
scoreless tie like last season's meet
ing, was a lot different from the
previous contest in which the Lions
were completely dominated by the
Zips. In Akron, the Zips "kicked
(Penn State's) butts, but couldn't
score," according to Parker.
The Lions rebounded in the sec
ond half, coming up with several
golden opportunities, but could not
manage to get a shot past Sean
groaned), this match was fun to play and enjoya
ble to watch.
Parker called the game "one of the better
collegiate games I've seen." Although-hesaid'his•
squad owned a slight edge in overall play, he
credited both sides with creating ample opportu
nities, and noted the excellent play of his own
goalkeeper Burke and Lion netminder Greg
Kenney as factors in the outcome.
Although Burke shrugged off a suggestion that
he had a lot to do with the game's outcome, he did
say he was surprised by two excellent Lion
opportunities in the two 10-minute overtimes.
While the goalies played well, both teams'
offenses fell under fire from their respective
coaches. Parker said his charges were working
harder on creating chances to score than they
were on capitalizing on these opportunities, a
criticism echoed by his goalkeeper.
Bahr's observations about the lack of Lion
offense were similar, adding that his front line
was not as adept at intercepting balls as they
Lions challenged by NFL competition
"The attitude of the team is defi
nitely different," he said. "The peo
ple look at it like a job rather than
getting excited about playing a
game, like the guys did every week
at school.
"And the game atmosphere is
definitely a change. There weren't
85,000 fans yelling and screaming
it just wasn't like Penn State. The
people come to the game for a social
event, especially here in Kansas
City because the team hasn't been
winning. So the fans don't get too
excited. They just sit back and
watch and talk to their friends. At
school, every game was a live-or-die
situation."
Has the professional football atti
tude reached into the Radecic's
spirit-filled mind?
"It's not a job to me yet," he said.
"I still have a lot of fun. You don't
have to worry about school and

Harrison lined a shot on Burke at
82:15, but the senior saved it and the
ensuing follow-up shot. By that time
the Lions were starting to play to
their potential, but they still could
not get on the board.
Lion Head Coach Walter Bahr felt
the Lions' offense was hindered in
part due to an injury to Thomas
Greve which kept the forward from
playing at 100 percent. Greve was
originally injured in Saturday's vic
tory over Navy and had to leave
that game with nine minutes re

As a first-round draft choice for
the Philadelphia Eagles the
fourth pick overall probably more
is expected out of Jackson than any
other former Lion. In his illustrious
Penn State career, Jackson tallied
2006 passing yards in 109 receptions
as flanker.
Starting for the Eagles in presea
son play, he had managed to chalk
up 88 yards in seven receptions, with
his longest catch going for 24 yards.
Jackson also managed to tuck two
NFL touchdowns under his belt in
the preseason.

"We weren't quite as alert and
sharp up front and we didn't pick-up
some of those balls they were pass
ing out of the defense," Bahr said.
"We didn't intercept too many
passes, especially in the first half,
coming out of the defense."
The Lions were continually sty
mied by the Zips style of play,
which consisted of running every
body toward the ball and forcing all
the play to occur in a 30-to-40-yard
area. This caused problems which

were during last Saturday's game with Navy.
Freshman Snyder noted another difference
between last night's game with the Zips and last
weekend's contest with the MidAhipMen.
"They have a lot more talent than Navy, and
they play good defense," the former high-school
All-American said.
For the soccer fan, last night's game between
the Lions and No. 15 Akron featured almost
everything he or she could ask for. The match
flowed back and forth, with the Zips dominating
early, and the Lions running the show late in the
game.
Each goalkeeper made excellent saves on
plays created by strong, inventive offenses.
There were also five yellow-card warnings is
sued, a rather high total. In short, everything a
soccer fan could expect to see in 90 minutes of
regulation play, plus both overtimes, was on
display last night at Jeffrey Field.
Everything, that is, but a goal.
Touted as a college superstar, the
adjustment for Jackson doesn't ap
pear to be challenging his play. In
his starting flanker position in the
Eagles' regular season opener Sun
day against the New York Giants,
Jackson caught two passes for 15
yards.
Kevin Baugh, too, has been given
considerable playing time, helping
out on the Houston Oilers' special
teams. Playing in all of the Oilers'
exhibition games, he returned nine
kickoffs for an average of 21.6 yards
tallying a 194-yard total.
He caught five punts, fair catch
ing three and gaining 25 yards on the
other two.
Fullback Williams, however, has
found himself on a team that isn't
exactly yearning for running backs.
Unfortunately for Williams, the
New England Patriots have recent
ly acquired two very capable backs
and he is currently on the bottom of
the depth chart.
Former USFL back Craig James
(from Southern Methodist)' joined
the Patriots along with former
Steeler Greg Hawthorne, forcing
Williams down to a reported sixth
string spot.
status
Things are looking well for Hamil
ton, who played consistent defense
for Penn State last year at his hero
position, a combination of outside
linebacker and strong safety.
Hamilton's experience on the Lion
defense has allowed his new team,
the New York Jets, to switch him
around in a number of different
spots, including strong safety, free
safety and cornerback.
He is currently listed as second in
the depth chart as a strong safety
and saw considerable action in all of
New York's preseason games and in
the Jets' victory over the Indianapo

Sanderson, 7-4, helped Chicago
to its ninth victory in 10 games as
it swept the two-game series from
the Phillies.
The National League East-lead

Chicago rushed to a 3-0 lead in
the first inning. Davey Lopes

25th homer of the season.
The Cubs knocked out Carlton,
11-7, in the sixth. Matthews and
Keith Moreland walked to start
the inning before Cey delivered an
RBI single. Gary Woods then
doubled, driving in Moreland and
sending Cey to third.
Kevin Gross relieved Carlton
and intentionally walked Jody Da
vis to load the bases. Leon Dur
ham, pinch hitting for Larry
Bowa, singled home another run
and Sanderson's sacrifice fly
capped the inning.
Sanderson lost his shutout in the
ninth. With one out, he made an
error on Jeff Stone's grounder and
Von Hayes followed with a bad
hop, RBI double. Al Oliver had a
two-out single to drive in Hayes.
Sanderson finished with seven
strikeouts and one walk.
Carlton struck out four to pass
Houston's Nolan Ryan and regain

Gubicza, 10-11, struck out three
and walked one. He got last-out
help from Dan Quisenberry, who
collected his 37th save.

Minnesota starter Ken Schrom,

On a hit-and-run, Motley went to

came home when White laced his
hit to left.
The Twins scored in the top of
