October 26, ' and the lawn sprinklers are still spraying their “ mists over luscious green acreage. Chestnut Hill, Mass, may not be a typical New ;. England town, but it's representative oi the stereo type which has evolved. Stately flagstone homes, quietly slipping into the mansion class, adorned with ivy strands and ornately-carved shutters., The trees, almost as numerous as the two-car ; garages over which they hang, emit an almost - breathtaking pano rama of color, signify- ing that summer has been forgotten with the many yesterdays.

V And the sculpturedW ,\ \ hedges fence in each x separate estate and each individual family. —ff Down the road a mile or so, Boston Col- KOLB lege sprawls its fine architecture over a sloping 200-acre three-tiered setting. More than 10,000 stu dents traverse the campus each day at the largest Jesuit teaching community in the world. In the midst of such grandeur and material istic prosperity, just below the towers on the Heights, lies Alumni Stadium. Bleacher seats. Wood-frame press boxes. Seating capacity—26.ooo. Penn State team physician Dr. Sam Fleagle remembers the place well. He played there 30 years ago. Since then, they’ve added some seats, paint and a tartan track. But it’s the same place. Penn State took its fourth-ranked team to Alumni Stadium last Saturday. One Boston news paper called the Lions “possibly the best college 11 ever to be seen in Boston.” Undefeated and the class of the East. Besides that, Boston College had been fielding one of its strongest and most exciting teams in many years. The Eagles were 3-1, with one of the best quarterbacks and most exciting halfbacks in the nation. ' The Penn Slate r Boston College game drew 25.272 Boston fans. The place wasn't even filled. Meanwhile, a few miles on the other side of the city in Cambridge, Harvard was playing Dart- ; mouth. Almost 40,000 fans were in attendance. The reporters arrived late in the BC press box._ i Many of them had transistor radios glued to their , ears. Harvard was playing on the other side of ; town. Too bad they couldn’t be there. “If this game is over quick, like a think it will, we can all go home early,” one Bay area writer V said disinterestedly as he took his seat. After the ; Lions scored their first touchdown for a 9-0 lead, : : he proclaimed, “Let’s go home.” Or to Harvard. Jim Mulvoy works for the Boston College stu dent newspaper. The Heights, and he knows the somewhat sad situation at BC. K “It’s an Ivy League town,” he said in a strong Kennedy-type accent as he looked at all the nattily dressed fans taking their seats. It’s awful hard for us to drum up interest in a game like this. Now if we’d be playing a rival like Holy Cross, we’d be able to fill a Stadium with 100,000 people.” * And thus only those football fans who aren’t only interested in intra-state rivalries and Ivy League football turned out for the Penn State match. The others either stayed home to trim the shrubbery, hack out the Red Sox’ chances for next i, year, or listen to the radio for the results. • Even listening to the radio left much to be desired, grid intelligence-wise. After State’s 29-0 win, one announcer on Boston’s largest station said, “The Lions were led today by their All-American, Tommy Kway-lick, who caught five passes, one ; for a touchdown.” Still, Penn Stale pul on an impressive show ing. even if a handful of Lion fans, national poll watchers, two Orange Bowl and two Sugar Bowl scouts were the only truly interested onlookers in New England. Chances are Boston College will continue to improve over the next year or two, with coach Joe Yukica getting a lot out of a little talent. The Eagles will play only nine games next year, includ ing Penn State, Army and Navy. And they’ll con tinue to get less-than-capacity crowds at most of the six Alumni Stadium games. Meanwhile, as Boston College takes some small but interesting steps into the big time. New En gland will remain, fenced in behind the stately walls and manicured hedges, away from the mad dening football crowd. And Harvard will flourish.

THE DUKE Tickets Now Ground Floor HUB Eagles Shut Out, 29-0 Defense, i By RON KOLB Collegian Sports Editor CHESTNUT HILL, MASS. You' want to know what kind of a day it was for Penn State last Saturday in Boston?. Early in the fourth quarter, Bob Campbell enters the game to punt. Remember him? The guy who always seems to get injured just when it looks like he’s going to show Leroy Keyes a trick or two. Anyway, Campbell enters the game to punt for the "second-unit offense on the Boston Col lege 33 yard'line. The center snap goes about two feet in the air and two feet backward, and Campbell has to run forward to recover. Now Campbell still has a sore .shoulder from a separation, and here he is, running around with the football while everyone from Penn State is yelling, “Get rid of it.” Campbell runs left. Maroon jerseys all over the place. He runs right. More maroon jerseys. Suddenly, finding his path to the sideline totally blocked as BC linemen converge from all sides, he punts. On the dead run, futilely, he punts. ‘ The ball rolls out of bounds at the three yard line. A few minutes later, Paul Johnson in tercepts a BC pass at the 11 and sets up the final TD in State’s 29-0 victory. All because of a perfectly imperfect punt that almost never was. Good Fortune “We got all the breaks today,’’ Joe Paterno said after his first shutout as head coach of the Lions. “We were very fortunate. Boston College did awfully .well.” The Eagles did play a strong game, especial ly through most of the first half, but talent wise, they clearly were no match for State’s undefeated units. “A good team makes its own breaks” said a disappointed Joe Yukica, the BC coach who was beaten by his former college' dorm coun selor. “Penn State has done this consistently. And you’ve got to give credit to that defense of theirs.” When the breaks and opportunities were re quired, State’s defense was there. Two Paul Johnson interceptions led to immediate scores, Jack Ham’s second blocked punt in as many games led -to a third TD and, of course, there’s that shutout, with a cast of thousands: Steve Smear’s 15 unassisted and three assisted tackles. Mike Reid’s 12 r total tackles, Pete Johnson’s seven, Ham’s six, interceptions by Mike and 'Neal Smith, etc., etc. However, when BC’s surprise starting quar terback Joe Marzetti ripped off 20 yards on the second play of the game, none of the 25,272 onlookers were quite sure how'good the PSU defense, or the Eagles, really were. Limited Action That opening drive eventually, stalled, as did t every effort by both teams through the first quarter. The Lions finally emerged from their own goal line when Chuck Burkhart hit one of his few early passes, a sideline toss good for 38 SAT*, NOV. 2 S PM REC. HALL (cheap) Kwalick yards to Charlie Pittman. Three incomplete tosses stopped the drive at the Boston College Finally, a few minutes into the second period, things started* happening. Pittman’s 20-yard burst and Tom Cherry’s inside power running moved the ball from the PSU 27 to the BC 12, where Rusty Garthwaite broke; the scoreless" tie with a 29-yard field goal. ' A four-play defensive effort, and State was in business again. Charlie Wilson caught a 17-yard Burkhart pass and Ted Kwalick caught two others that had the New England its collective adjectives on its collective three piece suit. The final grabf a 31-yard over-the shoulder impossibility, gave -the Lions a 9-0 edge. “We had hoped we could get the ball to Ted,” Paterno said. “He had a hot day last year, and in football, things tend to repeat themselves. Thank God he had a hot day again.” Paul Johnson’s first interception, returned to the BC 42, led to the 17-0 halftime margin. Kwalick caught a pass for 15 yards and scooped another for 16, and Cherry burst over left tac kle for the score all within 24 seconds. Burkhart again found the All-American for a two-point conversion. The Eagles’ last futile effort at an upset came when Yukica sent soph sensation Red Harris in to replace Marzetti in the second half. But even with his poise and accuracy, he couldn’t over come what opponents have come to consider the defense named Disaster. First, after Harris’ receivers simply refused to catch the ball, Ham led a punt rush, blocking the kick high in the air and out of bounds at the BC 12. One play later, Cherry went the final eight yards for a 23-0 advantage. ■ Then Harris completed a few more: two to Barry Gallup, one to Steve Kives and one to Penn State defensive back Mike Smith at the Penn State 25. Moments later, Harris even moved his .offense to within 19 yards of a score, but a tremendous pass rush foiled three more passing attempts. . Interceptions by Neal Smith and Paul John son, and Campbell’s flaky punt, kept the Eagles far from any threat the rest of the way. Mean while, Lions second-unit QB Mike Cooper had connected on a nine-yard scoring toss to leaping Tim Horst the senior’s only TD grab of his career as Ted Kwalick s stand-in -> to complete the final count. “This is an outstanding football team," Yukica said after seeing the Lions in action. “It’s solid in every respect, great defensively, with' good balance, and the type" ’of' team you can’t try to play catch-up on. I don’t think there’s any team better in the East.’’-' And Joe Paterno, after listening to-an old friend’s appraisal, added; “I hope Joe’s right." ' Army scored 57 points Saturday. This’week end the Cadets come to Beaver Stadium. They hope Joe’s wrong. After you've met the challenge? If you're the kind of Civil.
