25 You can't corner a batch of old Penn Staters without taking an ear-lashing in the lore and legend of this ancient citadel of football. They were a hale and hardy crew, asking for no quarter, were the Nittany Lions of years gone by. They still like to tell about the day they chased Ohio State off its own field, in Columbus. Literally, that's what a State team did. There were no rules against clipping then, and.

the Lions deviied the neat and mar- velously effective plan of knocking their opponents down all over the field, whether play was on or not. No rival was safe unless he was safely anchored In his own scrimmage line or backfield. At all other times he was considered legal prey. This was a new wrinkle tor the Buckeyes. They stood it only so lone before withdrawing to the snug confines of their dressing room.

The taunts of the primeval Staters followed them, and in the local records to this day the victory is posted as a forfeit. can't say offhand how it Is recorded in the Ohio State archives, but have a sneaking Yeckley and Harlow Campus Legends There are still dents on the winding staircase in Old Main Hall said to have been made by the bodies of luckless seniors who cornered Dick and Yeck one day LAURO on another pass. www on Page 33.

Cecconi's try for the extra point was wide, as was his second at tempt, but as things turned out.

that was unimportant. It did look important soon after the final half began. As soon as they got their hands on the ball. the Buckeyes began rolling. A 175-pound Negro halfback, Jimmy Clark, was the main weapon as they went from their own 33 to the Pitt six for a first down.

Stop Buckeye Threat Four tries got as far as the three. but the Panther forwards held and victory was all but assured. The Bucks didnt get closer than the Pitt 37 the rest of the afternoon. A low Perini punt from the Ohio State nine that was returned 14 yards by Jimmy Joe Robinson to the Buckeye 30 set up the other Pitt tally. An eight-yard toss from Llndy Lauro to Bill McPeak; a five-yard run by Cecconi and a seven-yard aerial from DePasqua to Cecconi combined to get the Panthers to the eight.

A series was In the making shortly before war, but the negotiations fell through and have not been resumed. One of the more formidable combines of long years ago was a twosome composed of Dick Harlow, now the coach at Harvard, and Ed Yeclcley, who is a prosperous manufacturer in Lorain, o. They were a hard-bitten pair, savage on the gridiron and not exactly amenable to discipline on the campus, especially that which was meted out by the upper-classmen. relations with the college after a classic feud with Hugo Bezdek, then the athletic director and coach.

6 SPORTS RESULTS COLLEGE CKOBS COUNTRY Pitt 4 Westminster earnest Geneva Penn State IS Cornell ...40 NaTy 7 Penn sut i Another picture By CARL Maybe somebody should footballers that Ohio State is They obviously couldn't noon, for they sent a dazed group of Buckeye gridmen back to Columbus with a 12-0 defeat. Just as dazed were the 55,217 stadium spectators who couldnt believe their eyes as the inspired Panthers whipped a Big Nine foe for the first time in 25 games. The surprising upset also was Pitt's initial triumph in five starts this season and its first over Ohio State in their last eight meetings. Oddly enough, the Scarlet and Gray started the Conference string in 1940. The Jungle Cats got their win at the expense of an old friend Wes Fesler, coach of the Buckeyes this year, Fesler fell victim "to the very team he tutored last season.

Tougher yet, he saw the man who was his assistant in 194ft Mike Milllgan get the congratulations due the victor. Score In Second Period It was evident from the beginning tUftt the Panthers meant business, but not until the end of the first half did they cross the goal line to prove it. There were only two seconds left before the intermission, in fact, when Tony Dimatteo sliced off his right tackle to chalk up the initial touchdown. A gallant goal line stand early in the third period took out whatever starch was left in the Buckeyes and Lou (Bimbo) Cecconi's final quarter score erased any doubt of Pitt's superiority. Teams Play Poorly Anyone interested in good foot ball would have gone away from the game in utter disgust, but 'it goes without saying that the Pitt homecoming day crowd was perfectly willing to trade perfection for victory.

The Panther gridders obviously had the same idea. They punted six times on second and third downs. Once in the lead they pro tected the score as if any further touchdowns were ruled out. The main reason for the second score, like the first, was a poor Buckeye punt that gave Pitt possession deep in enemy territory. Buckeyes Fumble Often Ohio State helped the Panther cause considerably by hobbling the pigskin 10 times, recovering six of them but often for long losses.

The most costly fumble occurred during the second quarter. Neither team had displayed of an offense during the opening period, being content to let their "golden toes" Bill Hardisty of Pitt ard Pete Perlni of Ohio State match punts. But the Buckeyes finally got roll ling after sides were changed and advanced 51 yards to the Panther 11. At that point Fullback Ollie Cline, who had been supplying most of the punch during the extended march, dropped the ball. Guard Earl Sumpter.

who had started his first game in two years with Pitt arid was a thorn in the Ohio Side all afternoon, was there to scoop it up. Break for Panthers Cline fumbled again several min utes later, this time Center Len Radnor recovered for Pitt on the Buckeye 32 and it kept Ohio State in its own territory the remainder of the half. With two minutes remaining, Ohio had the ball on its own 16 and sent Perlni back to punt. The usually reliable booter kicked it high in the air and out of bounds on his 29. A pass by Carl DePasqua on first down was Incomplete, so Milllgan and attempted to enforce certain college rules.

Campus greybeards say it was one of the most magnificent free-for-alls in all history. Yeckley and Harlow were the undisputed victors. Harlow later coached here and was the center of another ruction when he went to Colgate in the early 1920's. Two or three of the better members of the squad followed him to Hamilton to the accompaniment of countless charges and counter-charges. In the end Harlow was vindicated; there was ample evidence to prove he had not attempted to ire the players with him.

But it left wounded feelings that required years to heaL Yeckley entered business and took a less active hand In foot-ban, but continued to send many outstanding athletes back to State College from Northern Ohio. Eventually, however, he severed be one of the most eye-filling games on any gridiron this Pall. It was a penn State victory, 21-14, at the finish to keep the Lions undefeated after five games. But there was nothing easy about the way it was won. The Mountaineers, who had to accept their first defeat this season, could not help but be satisfied as they walked off the field.

Petchel State's Big, Man They had given it all they had and a little bit more against an opponent obviously richer and deeper in manpower. Elwood State's 155-pound jack-of-ail-tradeg, was both the smallest and the biggest man sight this afternoon. He set the backdrop for the tying touchdown in the second period with two punts In quick succession that drifted out of bounds on West Virginia's one. Then, with the deadlock persisting in the third quarter, he threaded the needle with a forward pass to Halfback Wallace Triplett that Triplett caught on the Mountaineer 27 and carried through a curtain of would-be tacklers for the payoff touchdown. 22,000 See Contest It was a game that quickly caught the fancy of the crowd of 22,000 largest in Beaver Field since the Navy played here in 1923.

It worked them Into an hysterical pitch and finally left them limp. It was a game, too, in which there were costly penalties and tempers flared frequently. But the errors that occurred were offset by magnificent line play on both sides and the hard running of an almost endless stream of Lion backs. Lions Outrush Foes Petchel, Triplett, Larry Joe, Clarence Oorinskl. Francis Rogell, Bob Williams and Bob Weitzel all took their turns at wheeling the ball.

How effective they were was evidenced by the statistics: State's rushing produced 365 yards to West Virginia's 48. That the score was not higher was because the Mountaineers were able to hold inside their 10-yard line, i For this they can thank Captain Ed Kulkowski and Guard Gene Corrum. These two veterans played 56 minutes and, when the final whistle blew, they had carried off the honors of being the best linemen in, evidence. State Scores In Six Minutes It took only. nine plays and six minutes for State to open the scoring.

When Rogell plunged over from the one there was nothing to indicate the Lions wouldn't wrap up this assignment quickly and conclusively. Starting from the 36, Joe spun through left tackle for 19 and Rogell bucked for 20. A 12-yard clipping penalty was only a minor interruption, for Joe was off again on a 12-yard sweep. Triplett toted to the 15. From that point, Joe and Rogell simply tagged along behind their blockers.

Tide Turns Against Lions After Ed Czeckaj had place- kicked the seventh point, the crowd sat back to watch the parade. Then the football gods turned against the Lions. They- regained the ball on their own klckofl when the pigskin struck Kulakowski and bounced into Triplett's hands, only to lose on the West Virginia's 45 on Rogell's fumble. On third down. Quarterback Tom Keane arched a long pass down-field intended for Rex Bumgardner.

When Rogell interfered with the receiver on the State 20, the STATISTICS PENN STATS W.

The game was now tied, 7-7. Kulakowski set up West Virginia's second touchdown by partially blocking Joe Colone's punt. The ball slithered out of bounds on State's 21. After two passes and a running play had failed, Russ Combs passed to End Bernard Huntz, who made a remarkable catch in the presence of three defenders in the end zone. Gloom Hits Home Side Hoffman came out again to add the extra point.

West Virginia led and there was a stony silence on the Lions' side of the field. This was not the right script at all. The Lions, as the second quarter began, crossed the mid stripe with the help of a roughing penalty, but stopped abruptly on the 24 when Coram applied a bone crackling tackle to Triplett and pitched him for a seven-yard loss. That was when Petchel first applied his good right foot to the cause. His punt was out on the one.

After Keane had kicked out, State crowded back to the 25. Here they bogged down but again Pet-chel's punt went out a yard from the goal line. Too Much Pressure The pressure was too much for the Mountaineers. Petchel returned Keane's kick to the 24. Gorinskl plunged to.

the 11 and. although Durkot was stopped there, unnecessary roughness by a West Virginia backer-up placed the ball on the one, Gorinskl was the touchdown maker as the Lions line ploughed the path. Petchel dropped the Mountaineers in, a hole early in he third period by returning a punt 28 yards and the Blue and White reached the 14 before losing the ball on downs. Races 19 Tarda Lil Elwood scuttled 19 yards to midfield on Keane's next kick retired to the bench for a breath of fresh air, and hurried back to put on the killer. It was a rifle pass thrown from the 48.
