Mud Slows Unbeaten
Nittany Lions, Who
Bag Seventh in Row
BY the Assoeioted Press

/ PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 8. Penn
States undefeated and united Nit
tany Lions rolled to their seventh
straight football victory today, but
the margin over not-so-hot Temple
University was only 7 to for the
Nations leading offensive and de-
fensive eleven.
With its running and passing at
tack stalled by a muddy field and a
wet pigskin. Penn State concen-
trated on straight-through-the Cen
ter line plunges to rack up the
games only touchdown in the third
period.
Sub Halfback Bobby Williams
bulled over from the three to climax
drive that ate up 48 yards in IS
plays. Ed Czekaj, the Lions place
kicking specialist, connected for the
extra point.
Though a homecoming day crowd
of $4,000 chortled over what many
termed moral victory for the Owls
Penn State had been rated six
touchdown favorite-the Lions SUI
periority was evident in the statis-
tics.
States Net Yardage Low.
The Nittany Lions gained total
net yardage of 266, including nine
first downs, against SO and 2 for
Temple. For State, this was big
let-down since the Bob Higgins
coached squad had averaged total
427 yards in its first six games. OF
course, the Temple Stadium turf,
damp and slippery after an all-night
downpour, didn't do the of1ense any
good.
On the other hand, Temple wasn't
much better. Phil Slosburg. the
Owls great triple-threat fullback
who has been leading the East in
total offense, was just another ball
carrier in the muddy going.
He tried 16 times to crack the
State forward line and ended up
with a net loss of 81 yards. Count
ing punt returns, Slosburg piled up
a total gain of Is yards-he had
been averaging about ITS per game.
Temple made only two good plays
"a 45-yard end around by End Joe
Lee in the first Period and 21-yard
Slosburg dash near the end of the
game. The Owls weren't able to get
past the midfield stripe. advancing
no farther than their own al after
Lees long run stalled on the State II.
Rogel Stars i'm Attack.
Penn State, however, kept ham
mering away at the Temple de-
fenses. With Williams and Franny
Rogel-he picked up 81 yards in 81
tries-carrying the brunt of the Lion
attack Fullback jeff Durkota
snaked-hipped % yards in the fourth
quarter for States longest gain from
scrimmage.
A Penn State drive failed on
Temples early in the fourth quar-
ter after advancing IS yards. Cze-
kaj's field-goal attempt was short
and wide.
The only advantage Temple held
was in the punting department.
and this amounted to only about IL
inches. Slosburg punted II times for
an average of 32.4 yards per boot
while three Nittany Lion backs
shared nine punts for an average
distance of 321 wards.

Expanded Industry

Announcement Of the expansion of the
wood pulp industry near Wilmington is good
news. Construction of a large dock, from
which ship will sail carrying Brunswick
timber to the mill and the addition of more
employees, comes at a time when news of
this sort has been too far between.
The expansion program is no small de-
velopment. Already nearly 300 men and
their families are being supported by the
industry locally. The construction of the
dock and the shipping itself has and will add
more money to Wilmington's steadily in
creasing income.
Here is development of the sort that is not
born of boom. Here is weekly cash income
and progress that has no recession. The
demand for paper today is greater than ever
and no matter how much pulp is cut that
demand apparently, will continue to out
distance the supply for many years to come.
Then, too, the industry, as it grows, will
become an even greater user of supplies
most of which will be purchased in Viii
mington. Both the company itself and its
personnel, as already demonstrated. are
shoppers here. AS time moves on and the in
sustry becomes larger in accordance with

The Broughton Report

Former Governor J. Melville Broughton
made an address before publishers and edl-
tors. members of the Eastern North Caro-
lima Press association, and in so doing gave
2 wealth of advice that, to heed, will most
assuredly gain benefit to the people In the
eastern part of the state.
Mr.. Broughton advised dlversltlcatlon OF
crops. He told the delegates that eastern
North Carolina was predominantly agrlc"l-
tural and that the western part OF the s1a'e
was equally industrial.
This means that in the eastern part OF the
state are the people who raise 1he 'n1Lse
needed to feed the industrial regions. his
advice that. crops be rotated is some1hihg

The Lewis Defeat


John L. Lewis, unsmiling, eyes

OF a loaded coal barge Ito resur-
rect Paul Anderson's phrase)
From there, in Lewisonian thun-

who run like cravens before the
Taft-Hartley law" and served
this ultimatum: should the con-
vention repudiate his non-Com-

thereby vote him off the council

And the lelegates, by a ma

ceeded to amend the Federation
constitution, thus removing Mr..
Lewis technically as an officer,
and Mr.. Lewis actually as a bar
between the so-called federal
unions and recognition by the ma

expand his business next spring. In addition

WASHINGTON - The Polit-
buro rarely telegraphs its
punches. There is no really re-
liable way of forecasting the next
turning in the devious road Of So
Wet foreign policy, since the
American experts can only fit to-
gether odd pieces of a jigsaw
puzzle, with most of the puzzle
missing. Yet if these odd pieces
of the puzzle are being correctly
interpreted, there is a strong pos
sibility that the planners in the
Kremlin are preparing a punch,
tc be ready for delivery at the
Foreign Ministers conference
next month.
The speculation-and it is still
only speculation-runs something
like this. The ministers will meet
as scheduled in London on Nov.
Is. The old familiar deadlock
will develop, with Soviet For
eign Minister V. M. Molotov tire
lessly reiterating his favorite
word, "Nyet." Then, just as the
ministers and their aids are pack
ing to 60 home in disgust, Molo-
TOW will ask for one more con-
ference. With an air of making an
enormous concession to break the
