Penn State Has
Ends Ozilj Problem For Coach Rip Engle
Depth
Here We Go Again
Depth at all positions ex
cept end greeted Coach Rip
Engle of the Penn State Nit
tany lions this year. Engle
has a letterman or equivalent
backing up starters at every
position. . -
In an attempt to twister his
end corps Engle shifted Mau
ry Schleicher, a 6-3 and 230
pound fullback of last year,
to the flanker position. How
ever, the huge battering ram
is getting a lot of competition
from unheralded John Baz
lck. Quarterback Strong
In contrast to the troubles
at end, the quarterback posi
tion, often a trouble spot for
most teams, seems to be the
strongest spot on the team.
Al Jacks, who was injured
much of last and Richie
Lucas, another letterman, are
back this v.ar. Jacks got the
call during the early part of
last season, but - when an in
jury put him on the sidelines
Lucas came off the bench to
do a creditable job. Last
spring both were running
about even for the signal
calling spot
Last year Jacks attempted
103 passes and completed 53
for 51 and 673 yards. In
cluded in the completions
were five touchdown throws.
Lucas, on the other hand,
didn't throw as much. He only
threw 59 passes, but he com
pleted 27 for 46 and 426
win over Syracuse by pass
ing 28 yards for the deciding
touchdown. Syracuse was an
Nebraska opponent last year.
The switching of Maury
Schleicher from fullback to
end started a chain of
switches in the backfield
and the line. Two veteran
halfbacks, Andy Moconyl
and Pat Botula, are fighting
for the fullback spot. Center
Chuck Ruslavage and tack
le Dill '.Vehmer are man
ning the guard slots.
Ruslavage, a n ex-Coast
Guardsman, never played
football until he came to col
lege. However, since coming
to Penn State he has seen a
lot of action.
Kasperian Shines
Star of last year's backfield,
which helped compile a 6-3
win and loss record, was Dave
Kasperian. Kasperian as a
sophomore last year was the
heavy duty runner. He carried
the ball 122 times for 469
yards and a 3.48 average per
carry. He also managed to
lead all scorers on the Penn
State team with 42 points.
Last vear when the Nittany
Lions beat Holy Cross 14-10,
Kasperian gained 97 yards
rushing, returned a kick-off
66 yards, returned two punts
18 and 15 yards and caught a
28-yard pass. He also inter
cepted a last ditch Holy cross
pass.
However, not all is "sugar
to Caye's position will bs
speedy Fran Paolone or vet-
neon Kolf Prima lilmnnA iirlm
ci an nail, ui ulc viiiiiiuiCf WU'J
was on the injured list most ol
last year.
An almost all-letterman
line will start if Maury
Schleicher gets the call at
left end. On the right flank
will be Norm Jeff, who saw
some action there last year,
while veteran Joe Bohan
and Andy Styncliula will
man the tackle spots. At the
guard positions will be Bill
Wehmer and Charley Rus
lavage and Captain Steve
Garban will start in the cen:
ter slot.
Penn State expects to im
prove on last year's disap
pointing 6-3 record with a bet
ter and more varied running
and passing attack. Defens
ively there should be improve
ment on all fronts except th
end.
Jacks Touted
Jacks and Lucas are both; Big Eight Roundup:

touted as an all-Eastern back,
Kasperian was the top runner
a year ago and barring any in
juries he should expect more
help than he had last year
from Pat Botula, Andy Mo-

Gilmore, and possibly Eddie
Caye if he should return from
the injured corps.

Eager for another Big
Eight title, Oklahoma's 12th
football squad coached by
Bud Wilkinson, began work
towards an lKh consecutive
Big Eight crown and a pos
sible national championship.
Wilkinson will be blending
three returning starters with
sophomores and reserves.
The Sooners figure to be
better offensively than they
will be on defense. Wilkinson
is also concerned with their
kicking, providing they ever
have to kick.
Lose Eight Regulars
Oklahoma lost eight varsity
starters including AU-Amer-
lcans Clendon l nomas ana
Billy Krisher. However, the
Sooners shouldn't have much
trouble finding replacements.
They have in past years. As
Harold Keith, the 'ooner
publicity boss, puts it. "The
hot-blooded Oklahomans are,
as usual, a short-priced entry
with a well-sugared nose. '
The Sooners scrimaged the
first afternoon out with all
five teams seeing action. The
squad ran mostly from the
basic split-T. However, Wil
kinson expects to use lots of
variations this fall.
Showing well in the first
scrimmage was David Baker,
quarterback on the first team,
and Bobby Boyd, alternate
quarterback who flings his
forward passes sidearm like
a man pegging at a dart
board. Baker shot through the
middle for a 40 yard touch
down, while Boyd connected
on five forward passes in five
tries.
At the ends will probably
be one starter and one alter-1
nate team member. The al-;
ternate team man, Ross;
Coyle, was all-Big Seven last I
year. Joe Rector is the start- j
ing right end and is a co
captain this year. !
The tackles are Steve Jen-
ning and Jere Durham. Jen-'
nings was an alternate team
end last year who can play ;
anywhere in the line. Durham
was an end on the third team j
last year. Jerry Thompson i
and Dick Corbitt or Jim Da-'
vis will man the guards.
Thompson was a second string 1
tackle last season, while Cor-1
bitt and Davis were second :
team guard and center re- i
spectively. j

the Associated Press. This
year he is figured to estab
lish himself with Tom Catlin
as the finest center blocker
of the Wilkinson regime.
David Baker and Bobby
Boyd are touted as possibly
being the f!nest one-two
quarterbacks in Oklahoma
history. Baker was the lead
ing passer on last year's
team. He is deadly on de
fense and almost as good
on offense. Boyd was
switched from halfback
last spring and has shown
up very well at his new spot.
Getting the
nod at half
back has been

is the first
jNegro to
:play football
at Oklahoma.
He may also
be the first
Negro AII-American at Okla
homa. Last year he was con
fined to a third team half
back slot.
Brewster Hobby has been
running at right half. How
ever, he is equally adept at
either halfback position. He
is quick and runs very well
in the broken field.
Holt And Sandefer Dual
Tho other half will be
either returning starter Jakie
Sandefer or Jackie Holt. Holt
was noted in spring drills as
being the most improved
player on the squad. He is
t
Gautt
very shifty and runs some
what like Nebraska's former
Ail-American Bobby Rey
nolds. Sandefer is a senior
from Breckenridge, . Texas,
Sandefer has excellent speed
and doubled at Oklahoma as
a sprinter on their track
team when he first started
going to school. Last year he
ranked third in the nation as
punt returner with 249 yards.
