COLLEGE FOOTBALL'S CENTENNIAL
The grand old game of college
football is celebrating its 100th birth
day this fall and with a bang. Most
of the nation's teams will be wearing
helmet decals shaped like a football
and featuring the figure 100. Cen
tennial shoulder patches will also be
worn on uniforms. It was back on
November 6, 1869, that what is offi
cially recognized as the first inter
collegiate game took place at New
Brunswick, New Jersey, between
Princeton and Rutgers. Rutgers won,
6—4, in something akin to soccer
played with a round ball on a 120yard-long field. To commemorate
that contest, the same two schools will meet again at New Brunswick on
September 27, and the changes brought about in the past 100 years will be
aptly symbolized by the television coverage given the game. Throughout the
nation this fall, band shows and other festivities will mark the 100th anni
versary, and Centennial medals and certificates will be awarded by the
NCAA to varsity football players.
THE FIRST GAME
Rutgers vs. Princeton 1869
A crowd of 300 bewildered spectators gathered at Rutgers College Field,
New Brunswick, N. J., to see the first intercollegiate football game. The rough
and tumble meeting between Rutgers and Princeton was a far cry from the
modern game, but it had a semblance of the crowd atmosphere that gives
college football the extra something it enjoys today. There was no stadium
then to hold the fans. The crowd perched on fence rails around the field's
periphery and raised their battle cries in keeping with the tempo of play.
Each team consisted of 25 players. Rutgers wore red turbans, but mostly
the athletes simply removed their jackets and stormed into one another. The
ball was kicked down the field; never carried. Points were scored by kicking
or butting the ball between goalposts set twenty-five feet apart at each end
of the field. The first team to score six goals won the game. By the 1890's
intercollegiate football was played along the lines of Rugby, where the ball
is carried. Teams were limited to 11 players and touchdowns could be made
in lieu of field goals.
Rutgers won the first game 6 to 4 and college football was born.
Note:—Edinboro State College will commemorate college football's 100th
anniversary with a Centennial Game played against Geneva College on
November 1 at 2:00 P. M. at Sox Harrison Stadium. The game will also
mark Edinboro's High School Day which is highlighted by the visitation
of prospective students who will be on campus.

SCOTS' 1969 OUTLOOK
SCOT SKETCHES
Edinboro State's new head coach. Bill McDonald, makes no bones about
the debut of his 1969 Fighting Scot grid hopefuls. "We are inexperienced,
young and a host of other things," claims the new mentor. "We are trying to
fit our best athletes in key positions and will spend a lot of time just drilling
on fundamentals."
McDonald, who came to the Clan's camp this past spring from Indiana
University of Pa. where he was highly successful in guiding the Big Indians'
offense, has 23 lettermen returning to the 1969 football wars. However, 16
of those 23 vets were sophomores last season and many of those had to be
pressed into service because of the injury bug which continually bit the
Scots throughout the '68 campaign.
Defensively the Edinboro eleven should be improved over last year's
squad. Ten letter winners return to this unit led by All-Conference honorable
mention winners linebacker Steve Hamm (6-1, 205, jr.) and Dennis Creehan
(5-10,189, jr.), a defensive back.
Best prospects on the interior line include lettermen Tom McDonough
(6-4, 255, jr.), Torry Buck (6-0, 200, jr.), Ed Thompson (5-11, 215, jr.)
and John Sullivan (6-0, 215, so.).
Defensive end candidates Joe Romanovich (6-1, 190, jr.) and Dave
Mezie (6—0, 186, so.) should make the Scots respectable at the terminals,
while veteran middle guard Ebby Hollins (6-2, 200, jr.) will give the Clan
experience at that slot. Hollins returned to the gridiron this past spring after
a year's absence and was one of the defensive standouts in the spring game.
Rounding out the defensive secondary are linebackers Gary Sisko
(6—0,186, so.) and Gordie Kissman (6—0, 195, so.) with backs Larry Rollick
(5-10, 172, jr.) and Joe Bufalino (5-9, 160, sr.). Sophomores Rick Jarmul
Joe Sass and Dominic larocci are pressing hard.
Offensively the big question mark is, who will earn the nod at the
quarterback slot? Battling for the post are juniors Tom Mackey (5-11, 180)
and Barry Masterson (5-11, 170) who took turns at the helm last season
along with newcomer Joe Kodba (5—11, 192), a junior college transfer.
Kodba comes to the Clan camp with some impressive statistics behind him.
All but one of the leading candidates in the backfield are new facesTailback hopefuls are John McCurry (5-10, 173, jr.), a Boston College trans
fer, Al Raines (5-9, 176, so.) and Jerry Mifsud (5-7, 170, so.). The fullback
slot should be filled by Greg Lomax (5—9, 190, so.), a transfer from Eastern
Arizona Junior College.
Probable quarterback targets are split ends Gary Roth (5-11, 170, jr.)
and Don Roccia (5-7, 165, jr.); tight ends Santo Policicchio (6-1, 190, so.)
and Jim Tabaczynski (6-0, 190, jr.) along with flankers Paul Johnston
(6-2, 190, jr.) and John Compel (5-11, 160, so.).
Bulwark of the offensive line is senior right tackle John Ballard (6-3,
223). Bob Hoover (6-2, 200, sr.) and Lee Robinson (6-1, 205, jr.) both
earned letters at tackle slots last year while sophomore Ken Zbinovec (6-0,
195) will be vying with the trio for a starting berth.
Other interior linemen jobs are being sought by guards Paul Burkell
(6-1, 190), Keith Laslow (5—5, 180), Floyd Konet (6—0, 210), and center
Ed Quinn (6-0, 200).
Most of the starting roles are big question marks that can only be
answered as the season progresses. It appears that the Scots will once again
have to struggle to keep in step with the competition that studs their grid
schedule.

Golden Eagles
POLAR BEARS' OUTLOOK
GOLDEN EAGLES' OUTLOOK
Optimism is flying high in the Golden Eagle camp this season as Head
Coach Gerry D'Agostino greets a 1969 squad that has much more speed in
the backfield, more overall size, a quarterback who can run as well as pass,
some excellent ends and some five freshmen prospects. The Scots are the
only new item on the Eagles' 1969 agenda which includes two teams that
just edged the Golden Ones in the scoring column to leave them with a 3-4
slate. Ouarterback Mike Driscoll (6-1, 180, jr.) connected on 27 of 52
attempts last year and proved to be the versatile field general that D'Agostino
has been looking for. The offensive backfield boasts team captain Carl Kuras
(5-10, 190, sr.) at a halfback slot along with sprinter Gene Oyler (5-9, 160,
jr.) on the other side. Another speedster is flanker Steve Lashbrook who will
give defensive halfbacks all they can handle. Lashbrook, a sophomore, tied
the college record in the 100-yard dash last spring with a 9.7 clocking.
Topping the offensive tackles is Regan Beers (5-11, 212, jr.), a veteran
letter winner. The interior line is shored up by hard core guards Tom Buntich
(5-9, 185, jr.) and Gary Westervelt (5-11, 195, sr.). Seasoned performers
Tom Wiedl (6-0, 190, sr.) and Bill Brodmerkle (6-0, 185, sr.) will spearhead
the defense from the end spots. Phil Haberstrow (6-1, 185, so.) has been
paired with Dan O'Herron as the Eagle linebackers while Dan Massey and
Bob "Mr. Everything" Nugent patrol the secondary area with Oyler.

The Scots and the Polar Bears staged a real shoot out last year in Sox
Harrison Stadium to keep the fans on the edge of their seats. With only six
minutes remaining in the first half and the visiting Ohioans in command
13-0, Barry Masterson entered the Edinboro lineup and gave the Clan a 20-13
lead at the intermission. The Scots upped the lead in the second half but the
Bears clawed their way to within one point 27-26 in the final canto. An
attempted two-point conversion failed for the visitors on their final touch
down as well as a 32-yard field goal attempt before Edinboro came away
with the nailbiter. Polar Bear Coach "Stretch" Roberson will have a nucleus
of some 29 returning lettermen in his crop of 48 veterans that will be striving
to put the Orange and Black on the winning side of the ledger. Roberson's
squad boasts 15 returning letter winners on the offensive unit and 13 re
turnees on the defensive hopefuls. The remaining award winner is the
Bears' kicking specialist, Greer Portz, a 5-11, 202 pounder from Rocky
River, Ohio. Roberson commented that the "prospects are average for a good
season." The team appears to be fairly young with only 10 seniors on a squad
that includes almost 50 freshmen prospects. Joe Zianno, who handled most
of the quarterbacking duties last season, will be competing with sophomore
Max Eastman for the field general job. Guard Greg Freewalt, linebacker Jim
Fender, and end Dan Walker have been elected captains for the Polar Bears'
1969 campaign.

Big Indians
ROCKETS' OUTLOOK
BIG INDIANS' OUTLOOK
The football picture at Slippery Rock is one of optimism. With 1969
being the year of man's conquest of the moon, SRSC grid followers are
hopeful that this 100th year of college football will also mark the launching
of the first stage of another successful Rocket. Head Coach Bob DiSpirito,
beginning his third season, feels that optimism is well-founded. Even though
his squad is composed of only 8 seniors, DiSpirito eyes '69 as the year the
Rockets will escape from the doldrums of three straight losing campaigns.
His hopes are reflected through a star-studded backfield, which should
emerge as the most explosive foursome in the Pennsylvania Conference.
Although a conference championship may be a year away, the 1969 Rockets
promise to be an exciting aggregation—one that will put points on the
scoreboard. There are weak spots. To what heights the Rockets will soar
will be dependent on how fast the inexperienced sophomores and juniors
shore up the gaps left by graduation. Improvement must come from the
offensive line, which must be rebuilt from the ground floor, and the defensive
secondary, which gave up 16 touchdown passes a year ago. Much of the
load must be carried by the eight experienced seniors, all lettermen, led by
Little All-American tailback candidate Jay Wagner along with his co-captain,
defensive back Steve Konick. Both were second-team All-Conference choices
as juniors. Eight starters from 1968 were lost through graduation, but 27
lettermen are back. Six regulars return to the offensive unit and eight to the
defensive first team. "Barring any key injuries, we should field the biggest
and best backfield in our league,” comments head coach Bob DiSpirito.
"The war cry at Slippery Rock is 'nine for nine in sixty-nine.' This is quite an
ambitious undertaking, but the staff feels it is not an impossible mission."
Klausing's tribe swept through regular season play last year with a perfect
9-0 record only to be edged 31-24 in the final 18 seconds by Delaware at
the Boardwalk Bowl in Atlantic City. Ranked among the top 20 small colleges
at the close of the '68 season, the Big Indians should once again prove to be
the Pennsylvania powerhouse. When Indiana University of Pennsylvania
head football coach. Chuck Klausing, glances at his two-deep lineup for the
1969 season, he sees both feast and famine. For example, on the lean side,
he sees that his tentative second-line units on both offense and defense
consist of 11 green sophomores, eight inexperienced and unlettered upper
classmen, and just three lettermen. On the plus side, however, when the
situation is good, it's very good. Last year's offensive spark plugs, the backfield that exploded for more than 38 points every Saturday, return for another
season together. Quarterback Wally Blucas will once again run the Big
Indian Attack, handing off to tailback Dan Cox and fullback Tom McCracken
and throwing to flanker Dave Smith. If sophomore Dave Connolly makes the
grade at offensive left tackle. Bob Prokay will vacate his regular spot there
and transfer to right guard. On the starboard side he will team with regulars
tackle Joe Kovalchick and tight end George Stark. On defense, veteran
safety Barry Ruffner heads the list of five regulars set for another campaign.
He will be joined by cornerback Chuck Hasse in the secondary while end
Jack Neptune and tackles Bob Pastine and Tony Ferrari will anchor the line.
Because of the serious lack of depth, however, several other varsity new
comers, in particular tailback Larry Monsilovich and defensive back Bill
Hall, could challenge for jobs especially if the injury bug hits.

Bald Eagles
EAGLES' OUTLOOK
Eagle coach, Al Jacks, can once again expect his charges to come
away with a winning slate. This is nothing new to the Clarion mentor who
has only dropped 14 of 54 grid contests since he took the leadership six
years ago. Since then his blue and gold teams finished 10-0 in 1966 cap
turing the state championship and followed up with the Western Division
crown in 1967 with an 8-2 ledger. Jacks' Eagles lost 13 lettermen, but have
28 award winners returning for action this season. Bob Erdeljac (5-11, 172),
a junior quarterback from Oakmont, is the big reason the Golden ones will be
in contention for the division title. Last year the sophomore signal caller
passed for 1,809 yards to finish seventh in the nation and second in the con
ference. His 57.8 percentage in completions topped the league, however.
The overall Eagle offense should be stronger with standout halfback Bob
Oberdorf (5-9, 168, jr.) and fullback John Abal (5-10, 198, jr.) to carry the
pigskin. Favorite targets of Erdeljac are Larry McNulty, a 6-0, 207-pound
senior and Jim Kocan, a 5-7, 160-pound split end. Anchoring the offensive
line is conference honorable mention tackle, Tom Komenda (6-0, 215, jr.).
Eight more seasoned veterans are also on tap to make the offensive unit go.
The Eagle defensive unit has only 3 defensive veterans left in the persons of
junior end Dick Smith (6-2, 185), senior middle linebacker Elmer Schultz
(5-11, 197) and senior defensive halfback Andy Brindger (5-11, 170). The
Jacksmen finished second in the conference to California's mighty Vulcans
in '68 only after a hard fought 26-21 battle. Powerful Indiana provided a close
18-13 loss while Delaware State also dropped the Golden ones. The Eagles
could very well claw their way to the top this year.

HAVEN STATE COLLEGE
BALD EAGLES' OUTLOOK
In his first year as the Bald Eagles' head mentor. Bob Weller will be
building his 1969 grid machine from among 70 prospective candidates which
include a nucleus of 18 returning lettermen. Coach Weller, defensive line
coach the last two years at Lock Haven and a graduate of Slippery Rock, will
find the majority of the Bald Eagles' defensive unit returning for the '69
campaign. All-conference selection Ron Beshore, a 5-9, 197-pound line
backer from New Cumberland, will anchor the defensive charges while
honorable mention winner Steve Jarrett, a 6-1, 213-pound center, will lead
the offensive line. Adding fire power to the Eagle air game is junior quarter
back Denny Rhule who totaled 894 yards last season both running and
passing. Sophomore Scott McLean and Mike Packer will back up Rhule in
the field general spot. Top backs include Jim Smith, a 6-0,198-pound senior
and Dan Elby, a 6-0, 180-pound junior. The Bald Eagles finished one notch
above the Scots in conference play at the close of last year's campaign, but
scared some of the top finishers in the league. They were edged 27-26 by
California, the Western Division Champion, and fought second place finisher.
Clarion, to a 14-3 loss. The Eagles should fly higher this season, but have
some tough opponents to meet on the schedule. Because of Lock Haven's
small amount of male students, Pennsylvania Conference officials have
given the College permission to use freshmen gridders in the varsity program.
This has bolstered Coach Weller's offensive unit and should add momentum
to the Maroon and Gray's scoring machine. Ron Beshore, Charles Brenner
and Steve Jarrett have been selected as tri-captains for the 1969 season.

RED RAIDERS' OUTLOOK
The Red Raiders graduated All-Conference halfback Lou Orndorff,
defensive end Wayne Wilkerson and linebacker Nick Dellaquila, two key
defenders in tackle Dave McNichol and safety Tom Andros, fullback Ed
Hammers and league's sixth leading passer, Steve Bumgarner. The tribe has
lost some hard core veterans from both the offensive and defensive units
which could spell a challenging season for Coach Dolbin's charges. John
Hetter, a 6-2, 185 pounder, and 5-8, 165-pound Steve Pallo are the leading
candidates for the quarterback slot. League pass receiving champ Al Bowman
(6-1, 180, jr.) who grabbed Bumgarner passes for 738 yards and 6 touch
downs in conference action will be one of the top targets for the Raiders'
new signal caller. At the flanker spot is Fred Keyes, a 6-0, 175-pound junior
while the backfield chores on the offensive eleven will be spearheaded by
junior fullback Russ Alden (5-10, 185) and Bruce Baustein (5-11, 180, jr.).
A pair of veteran senior guards Bill Lemanski, a 6-0, 205-pounder from
Ellwood City, and Chuck Bolash, 6-1, 195 pounds from Harrisburg, should
give added momentum to the Raiders' offense. Among the 26 lettermen
returning to the reservation is All-Conference defensive halfback Chuck
Hickes (6-1, 185, sr.) from Tyrone. Rounding out the defensive returnees is
a crop of juniors in end Bill Connelly (5-11, 190), middle guard Dennis
Gordon (5-11, 215), linebacker Dan Smith (6-1, 195), and halfback Bruce
Baustein (5-11, 180). The addition of some promising freshmen give the
Raiders some beefing up in the defensive alignment, but the big Iquestion
confronting the tribe in '69 is, how well will the offense move?

GOLDEN TORNADOES' OUTLOOK
The G-Men have had their difficulties on the gridiron in recent years but
the Golden Tornadoes are hoping that new head coach, Dan Frasier, can get
the program going in the right direction. The Tornadoes will again be a very
young squad with a roster that shows very few upperclassmen. The starting
quarterback slot will most likely go to sophomore southpaw Don Phillips
who took charge of the Tornado offense midway through last season when
Greg Haney received spinal injuries. Letter winners Joe O'Neill and Pete
Quinn are marked as Phillips' top targets. Both are juniors. The ground attack
will be led by Herb Braxton, a 6-1, 205-pound fullback from Beaver Falls
and senior halfback Gail Church from Darlington. Also scheduled for action
in the G-Men's offensive backfield are sophomore halfbacks Tom Wood of
Kensington, Ohio, and Gary Toot of Lisbon, Ohio along with senior fullback
Elmer Laslo and junior halfback Denny Stach. Returning at the tackles are
Mike Hink, a 6-1, 235-pound senior, and Bruce Smeal, a 6-1, 205-pound
junior while Steve Palyash, a 5-10, 190-pound junior, and Chuck McShane,
a 5-10, 200-pound sophomore are at the guard slots. Even though the
Genevans are young, they appear to have ball players who have seen a good
deal of varsity action. The addition of some promising freshmen talent could
give the Tornadoes some much needed depth and the edge needed to slip
into the winning side of the column a few times this season.

CALIFORNIA STATE COLLEGE
PENNSYLVANIA CONFERENCE
November 8—at California—1:30 P.M. E.S.T.
The Pennsylvania State Colleges Athletic Conference, organized in
1951, this year changed its name to the Pennsylvania Conference.

Its membership originally consisted of the 14 state colleges: Bloomsburg, California, Cheyney, Clarion, East Stroudsburg, Edinboro, Indiana,
Kutztown, Lock Haven, Mansfield, Millersville, Shippensburg, Slippery Rock,
and West Chester. In 1966 Indiana no longer was eligible for conference
laurels as it acquired university status.
The conference is divided into a Western Division and an Eastern
Division. Members of the Eastern Division include Bloomsburg, Cheyney,
East Stroudsburg, Mansfield, Kutztown, Millersville, Shippensburg, and
West Chester, while Edinboro, California, Clarion, Lock Haven, and Slippery
Rock comprise the Western Division. In basketball, the conference champions
of both leagues face each other at the end of the season to determine the
PC championship.
All 13 state colleges that compete in the PC belong to the NAIA, while
many are also NCAA and ECAC members.
VULCANS' OUTLOOK
Jeff Petrucci, the NAIA passing leader for the past two years, has
graduated, but the Vulcans are once again loaded. The Fire Gods could have
some trouble at the quarterback slot, yet have 24 lettermen and some experi
enced veterans who will aid the Vulcans in their defense of the Western
Division title. The Hepner-coached Californians walked away with a 28-28
tie against East Stroudsburg for the state championship last season and will
be looking forward to solo ownership of the coveted crown at the close of
the 1969 campaign. Returning are All-Conference guards Emil Letwin (6-3,
215) and Larry Randall (6-1, 240), second team All-Conference halfback
Ron Urban and the league's top punter, Don Roberts (40.5). Add to this a
few interior linemen like 6-3, 240-pound Bill Wilson; 6-2, 230-pound Jerry
Valencik; and 6-2, 230-pound Bob Callaway. The Vulcan tackles will cer
tainly give their opponents something to worry about. The downstaters'
defense has remained almost intact with the returnees and the Vulcan
running game could be much improved. Urban has had two years of expe
rience and junior Greg Ray (6-2, 195) has proved to be a promising back.
The offense also has senior flanker George Carlock to use as a pass target
for probable starting quarterback Bob Keys, a 5-11, 165-pound junior. A
repeat of last year's schedule will find the Californians looking to revenge a
1 -point loss (27-26) to Waynesburg and a 41-0 thumping by Indiana. Look
for the Vulcans to be on top in the West standings.

Edinboro State College Marching Band
A part of the color of every Edinboro
State College Football afternoon, at
home or away, is the Edinboro State
College Marching Band. Numbering
120 members, the band performs at
halftime and many pre-game parades
and shows throughout the Common
wealth of Pennsylvania.
Under the direction of Dr. Donald Panhorst assisted by Mr. Karl Gombert, the
band is representative of many depart
ments of the College.
A specialty group of Tam'O'Shanters in
the true tradition of the Highlanders
provides added entertainment to the
afternoon festivities.
We hope that you enjoy the Edinboro
State College Marching Band perform
ance this afternoon.

Joe Sass
Defensive Halfback
Al Raines
Tailback
Three Fighting Scot gridders have
forged their way into the Edinboro
record book this season. Sophomore
defensive back, Joe Sass from Hopewell, led the assault on the Clan'sannals
when he intercepted three passes in
one game against Clarion State to set a
new standard. Sophomore tailback Al
Raines from Aliquippa and Conneaut,
Ohio's Tom Rockwell, a place-kicking
specialist, also established new football
marks in a conference contest against
Lock Haven. Raines ran to five different
rushing marks with the longest run from
the line of scrimmage (85 yards), long
est touchdown run (85 yards), most
yards in one quarter (114), most yards
in one half (218) and most yards in one
game (260). Rockwell came up with a
record setting performance in the same
game when he booted field goals of 24,
26 and 31 yards. The three kicks not
only set a game record, but all came in
one period to set still another mark.

1969 CO NFERENCE C A N D ID A TES
HEAD COACH
Bill McDonald, assistant football coach at
Indiana University of Pennsylvania for the past
three years and head coach at Hopewell High
School from 1958-1965, will be marking his first
year as head football coach at Edinboro State
College.
McDonald directed Indiana University's of
fense during the past three years as the Big
Indians registered 24 regular season victories
against only three defeats. This year's grid squad
finished unbeaten in nine outings and proved to
be the greatest offensive team in Indiana's history
by tallying 360 points, an average of 40 points
a game.
The unblemished 9-0 mark landed Indiana
University the opportunity to play in the Board
walk Bowl in Atlantic City, New Jersey against the University of Delaware.
The Wilmerding, Pa. native guided Hopewell High School to a 46-25-1
slate during his seven years as Hopewell's head football coach. His 1960 ball
club defeated Braddock High 7-6 and broke their WPIAL 58-game winning
streak while his 1963 team captured the Midwest Class A Championship.
The Fighting Scots' new grid pilot has also served as an assistant coach
at Braddock and Latrobe High Schools. He acted as aid to Chuck Klausing,
Indiana's head football coach, through two undefeated seasons at Braddock
High from 1956-1958.
McDonald holds both a B.S. degree in education and an M.Ed. from the
University of Cincinnati where he played fullback under Sid Gillman, now
head coach of the San Diego Chargers and his assistant coach, Paul Dietzel.
This team was the original "Chinese Bandits," a defensive unit which later
became famous at Louisiana State University.
He has also earned over 70 hours of graduate credits from Cincinnati,
Penn State, Pitt and Indiana University of Pa.
"Mr. McDonald's coaching career has constantly been a story of success.
In addition to this aspect of his life, we were impressed with him as a man
who is prepared and capable to give both wise counseling and leadership to
young men in all phases of their development," stated Edinboro President,
Dr. Chester, T. McNerney, in making the new appointment.
McDonald will be met with the challenge of building a football machine
for the Scots that can produce wins. The last time Edinboro posted a winning
slate was during the 1965 campaign when the Clan garnered six victories,
two losses and one tie. He has already injected some innovations that hope
fully will push the Highlander football program down the right production line.
The new coach along with his wife, Joanne, and their three children,
have recently moved to Edinboro.

SECONDARY COACH
Sam Ruvolo, former head grid mentor at
Cathedral Latin High School in Cleveland, Ohio,
joined the Fighting Scots' grid staff in the
spring of 1968.
Ruvolo, who grooms the Scots' defensive
secondary, guided his Cathedral Latin teams to
two championships and one tie in the powerful
Cleveland East Senate conference. During his
nine years at Latin, Ruvolo amassed an overall
record of 49-27-2. In the last four years his grid
teams lost only six contests while winning 30. His
best season was posted by his 1965 squad which
registered a 9-1 slate.
A graduate of John Adams High in Cleveland
and Kent State University, Ruvolo has spent 19
years in the coaching ranks. Among various
Cleveland schools included under his past tutelage are: Chanel, Brecksville,
South High and West Tech. He also served as athletic director at Cathedral
Latin for two years.
During his coaching career at Cathedral Latin High School, Ruvolo
coached such outstanding football players as Clinton Jones, former Michigan
State University star now playing with the Minnesota Vikings; Larry Kaninski,
former All-Big 10 Center from Purdue University now seeing action with the
Denver Broncos; and Bob Taucher, former University of Nebraska standout
now playing with the Dallas Cowboys. As head mentor at Chanel High
School from 1958-1960, Ruvolo coached Ernie Kellerman, former All Mid
American Conference quarterback at Miami University of Ohio and now a
defensive back for the Cleveland Browns.

gan University where he was a 3-letter winner in
football. He earned his M.S. at Southern Illinois
University where he was a graduate assistant on
the football staff. He is originally from South
Bend, Indiana, where he attended Clay High
School.
Jim has been assigned to recruit in the
Western Pennsylvania area and has been tagged
by his coaching counterparts as one of the Clan's
top talent scouts. He has landed several high
school grid stars and has also signed some outstanding junior college
grid prospects.
He and his wife, Linda, along with their new daughter, Bethany, live
in Edinboro.

Rochester High's Rams and remained there until he was selected to initiate
a grid program at Meadville in 1968.
Jack and his wife, Nancy, along with their five children, are currently
residing in the Meadville area.

burg, Zvonar received numerous grid awards. He was named as one of the
Red Raiders' co-captains, selected to the all-conference team, the NAIA
District 30 squad, and earned a berth on the all-state selections.
Tony brings valuable experience and coaching knowledge to his duties
as the offensive line mentor and will be striving to strengthen the Clan's
weakest spot.

1968 AT A GLANCE
Few bright spots marked the Scots' dismal 1968 campaign which netted
the Clan only two victories in nine gridiron battles. The injury plagued Scots
rallied from a 13-0 deficit to trim visiting Ohio Northern 27-26 behind the
passing of Barry Masterson to even their record at 1-1 early in the year. The
Highlanders then found themselves on the short end of the score for five
consecutive Saturday afternoons before they registered a 31-7 verdict over
Geneva's Golden Tornadoes. The victory celebration was shortlived, however,
as California's mighty Vulcans came to town and clinched the Western Division
crown with a thundering 35-7 conquest to close the Clan's 1968 season.

THE COLLEGE'S HISTORY
The beginnings of the college were laid in 1857, over one hundred years
ago, when a band of Scotch-Irish farmers grouped together and founded a
private normal school at Edinboro by popular subscription to train teachers.
In 1861 it was chartered by the Commonwealth as Pennsylvania's second
Normal School and developed and grew through service to the Commonwealth.
A great forward stride was taken in 1914, when the Commonwealth pur
chased Edinboro Normal School. In 1926, alerted to the need for better edu
cated teachers for its schools, Pennsylvania made Edinboro a Teachers College
offering a four-year curriculum leading to degrees of Bachelor of Science in
Secondary, Elementary, and Art Education, and Library Science.
In 1960 the name of the college was changed to Edinboro State College.
Beginning in September of 1957, the college was empowered to grant de
grees of Master of Education in Elementary Education. In September 1961,
graduate study in secondary education was added to the graduate program.
In i 962 the liberal arts degree program was begun. Students may prepare
for various vocations as an arts and science major in Humanities, Social
Sciences or Natural Sciences and may receive a Bachelor of Arts degree.
The control of the College is vested in the Board of Trustees, composed
of nine rnembers appointed by the Governor of Pennsylvania. The Board of
Trustees in turn elects the President of the College who is responsible for its
administration. The State Superintendent of Public Instruction is an ex-officio
member of the Board of Trustees.
The College is accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of
Teacher Education, the Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary
Schools, and the American Medical Association. In addition, its curriculums
are registered by the New York State Department of Education.
president
Dr. Chester T. McNerney became president of
Edinboro State College in September, 1966. His
formal inauguration, honoring him as Edinboro's
thirteenth president, followed on April 22, 1967.
Dr. McNerney came to Edinboro from the
University of Akron, where he was the Dean of the
College of Education and was highly instrumental
in the development of numerous educational in
novations. He was cited as the motivating force
behind the University of Akron Classrooms
Around the World, and recognized for his scholarly
studies of comparative education abroad.
Dr. McNerney's primary areas of interest deal
with the improvement of the curriculm, the pro
gram for educational supervision and administra
tion, and the improvement of inter-personal reamong the various members of working groups. His concern in
this area has led to his writing of several books, lecturing and conducting
various workshops.
Under Dr. McNerney's guidance, the College has witnessed the growth of
administrative operations, broader forms of student government, and the
development of the future growth of Edinboro State College.
He is a man dedicated to the academic life, a tireless advocate of personal
involvement in the religious and civic affairs of one's community, and an
educator who visibly believes in and practices total individual professional
commitment.
Graduates of Edinboro have distinguished themselves in ail professional
fields: education, law, medicine, and religion as well as business and politics.
EDINBORO STATE COLLEGE'S ATHLETIC PROGRAM
The College stresses friendly relations among students and faculty and
informal student counseling and guidance. The faculty is keenly aware of
professional interests and self growth. High qualitative and quantitative
standards distinguish the graduates of this college. The preparation of better
educated citizens has been an Edinboro tradition for over a century.
Intercollegiate athletics play an important role in the total educational pro
gram of Edinboro State College. The program is so conducted as to assure
wholesome use of leisure time, a healthy focal point for the experience and the
expression of group spirit, and a laboratory experience for prospective coaches.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL'S CENTENNIAL
The grand old game of college
football is celebrating its 100th birth
day this fall and with a bang. Most
of the nation's teams will be wearing
helmet decals shaped like a football
and featuring the figure 100. Cen
tennial shoulder patches will also be
worn on uniforms. It was back on
November 6, 1869, that what is offi
cially recognized as the first inter
collegiate game took place at New
Brunswick, New Jersey, between
Princeton and Rutgers. Rutgers won,
6—4, in something akin to soccer
played with a round ball on a 120yard-long field. To commemorate
that contest, the same two schools will meet again at New Brunswick on
September 27, and the changes brought about in the past 100 years will be
aptly symbolized by the television coverage given the game. Throughout the
nation this fall, band shows and other festivities will mark the 100th anni
versary, and Centennial medals and certificates will be awarded by the
NCAA to varsity football players.

A crowd of 300 bewildered spectators gathered at Rutgers College Field,
New Brunswick, N. J., to see the first intercollegiate football game. The rough
and tumble meeting between Rutgers and Princeton was a far cry from the
modern game, but it had a semblance of the crowd atmosphere that gives
college football the extra something it enjoys today. There was no stadium
then to hold the fans. The crowd perched on fence rails around the field's
periphery and raised their battle cries in keeping with the tempo of play.
Each team consisted of 25 players. Rutgers wore red turbans, but mostly
the athletes simply removed their jackets and stormed into one another. The
ball was kicked down the field; never carried. Points were scored by kicking
or butting the ball between goalposts set twenty-five feet apart at each end
of the field. The first team to score six goals won the game. By the 1890's
intercollegiate football was played along the lines of Rugby, where the ball
is carried. Teams were limited to 11 players and touchdowns could be made
in lieu of field goals.
Rutgers won the first game 6 to 4 and college football was born.
Note:—Edinboro State College will commemorate college football's 100th
anniversary with a Centennial Game played against Geneva College on
November 1 at 2:00 P. M. at Sox Harrison Stadium. The game will also
mark Edinboro's High School Day which is highlighted by the visitation
of prospective students who will be on campus.

SCOTS' 1969 OUTLOOK
SCOT SKETCHES
Edinboro State's new head coach. Bill McDonald, makes no bones about
the debut of his 1969 Fighting Scot grid hopefuls. "We are inexperienced,
young and a host of other things," claims the new mentor. "We are trying to
fit our best athletes in key positions and will spend a lot of time just drilling
on fundamentals."
McDonald, who came to the Clan's camp this past spring from Indiana
University of Pa. where he was highly successful in guiding the Big Indians'
offense, has 23 lettermen returning to the 1969 football wars. However, 16
of those 23 vets were sophomores last season and many of those had to be
pressed into service because of the injury bug which continually bit the
Scots throughout the '68 campaign.
Defensively the Edinboro eleven should be improved over last year's
squad. Ten letter winners return to this unit led by All-Conference honorable
mention winners linebacker Steve Hamm (6-1, 205, jr.) and Dennis Creehan
(5-10,189, jr.), a defensive back.
Best prospects on the interior line include lettermen Tom McDonough
(6-4, 255, jr.), Torry Buck (6-0, 200, jr.), Ed Thompson (5-11, 215, jr.)
and John Sullivan (6-0, 215, so.).
Defensive end candidates Joe Romanovich (6-1, 190, jr.) and Dave
Mezie (6—0, 186, so.) should make the Scots respectable at the terminals,
while veteran middle guard Ebby Hollins (6-2, 200, jr.) will give the Clan
experience at that slot. Hollins returned to the gridiron this past spring after
a year's absence and was one of the defensive standouts in the spring game.
Rounding out the defensive secondary are linebackers Gary Sisko
(6—0,186, so.) and Gordie Kissman (6—0, 195, so.) with backs Larry Rollick
(5-10, 172, jr.) and Joe Bufalino (5-9, 160, sr.). Sophomores Rick Jarmul
Joe Sass and Dominic larocci are pressing hard.
Offensively the big question mark is, who will earn the nod at the
quarterback slot? Battling for the post are juniors Tom Mackey (5-11, 180)
and Barry Masterson (5-11, 170) who took turns at the helm last season
along with newcomer Joe Kodba (5—11, 192), a junior college transfer.
Kodba comes to the Clan camp with some impressive statistics behind him.
All but one of the leading candidates in the backfield are new facesTailback hopefuls are John McCurry (5-10, 173, jr.), a Boston College trans
fer, Al Raines (5-9, 176, so.) and Jerry Mifsud (5-7, 170, so.). The fullback
slot should be filled by Greg Lomax (5—9, 190, so.), a transfer from Eastern
Arizona Junior College.
Probable quarterback targets are split ends Gary Roth (5-11, 170, jr.)
and Don Roccia (5-7, 165, jr.); tight ends Santo Policicchio (6-1, 190, so.)
and Jim Tabaczynski (6-0, 190, jr.) along with flankers Paul Johnston
(6-2, 190, jr.) and John Compel (5-11, 160, so.).
Bulwark of the offensive line is senior right tackle John Ballard (6-3,
223). Bob Hoover (6-2, 200, sr.) and Lee Robinson (6-1, 205, jr.) both
earned letters at tackle slots last year while sophomore Ken Zbinovec (6-0,
195) will be vying with the trio for a starting berth.
Other interior linemen jobs are being sought by guards Paul Burkell
(6-1, 190), Keith Laslow (5—5, 180), Floyd Konet (6—0, 210), and center
Ed Quinn (6-0, 200).
Most of the starting roles are big question marks that can only be
answered as the season progresses. It appears that the Scots will once again
have to struggle to keep in step with the competition that studs their grid
schedule.

Golden Eagles
POLAR BEARS' OUTLOOK
GOLDEN EAGLES' OUTLOOK
Optimism is flying high in the Golden Eagle camp this season as Head
Coach Gerry D'Agostino greets a 1969 squad that has much more speed in
the backfield, more overall size, a quarterback who can run as well as pass,
some excellent ends and some five freshmen prospects. The Scots are the
only new item on the Eagles' 1969 agenda which includes two teams that
just edged the Golden Ones in the scoring column to leave them with a 3-4
slate. Ouarterback Mike Driscoll (6-1, 180, jr.) connected on 27 of 52
attempts last year and proved to be the versatile field general that D'Agostino
has been looking for. The offensive backfield boasts team captain Carl Kuras
(5-10, 190, sr.) at a halfback slot along with sprinter Gene Oyler (5-9, 160,
jr.) on the other side. Another speedster is flanker Steve Lashbrook who will
give defensive halfbacks all they can handle. Lashbrook, a sophomore, tied
the college record in the 100-yard dash last spring with a 9.7 clocking.
Topping the offensive tackles is Regan Beers (5-11, 212, jr.), a veteran
letter winner. The interior line is shored up by hard core guards Tom Buntich
(5-9, 185, jr.) and Gary Westervelt (5-11, 195, sr.). Seasoned performers
Tom Wiedl (6-0, 190, sr.) and Bill Brodmerkle (6-0, 185, sr.) will spearhead
the defense from the end spots. Phil Haberstrow (6-1, 185, so.) has been
paired with Dan O'Herron as the Eagle linebackers while Dan Massey and
Bob "Mr. Everything" Nugent patrol the secondary area with Oyler.

The Scots and the Polar Bears staged a real shoot out last year in Sox
Harrison Stadium to keep the fans on the edge of their seats. With only six
minutes remaining in the first half and the visiting Ohioans in command
13-0, Barry Masterson entered the Edinboro lineup and gave the Clan a 20-13
lead at the intermission. The Scots upped the lead in the second half but the
Bears clawed their way to within one point 27-26 in the final canto. An
attempted two-point conversion failed for the visitors on their final touch
down as well as a 32-yard field goal attempt before Edinboro came away
with the nailbiter. Polar Bear Coach "Stretch" Roberson will have a nucleus
of some 29 returning lettermen in his crop of 48 veterans that will be striving
to put the Orange and Black on the winning side of the ledger. Roberson's
squad boasts 15 returning letter winners on the offensive unit and 13 re
turnees on the defensive hopefuls. The remaining award winner is the
Bears' kicking specialist, Greer Portz, a 5-11, 202 pounder from Rocky
River, Ohio. Roberson commented that the "prospects are average for a good
season." The team appears to be fairly young with only 10 seniors on a squad
that includes almost 50 freshmen prospects. Joe Zianno, who handled most
of the quarterbacking duties last season, will be competing with sophomore
Max Eastman for the field general job. Guard Greg Freewalt, linebacker Jim
Fender, and end Dan Walker have been elected captains for the Polar Bears'
1969 campaign.

Big Indians
ROCKETS' OUTLOOK
BIG INDIANS' OUTLOOK
The football picture at Slippery Rock is one of optimism. With 1969
being the year of man's conquest of the moon, SRSC grid followers are
hopeful that this 100th year of college football will also mark the launching
of the first stage of another successful Rocket. Head Coach Bob DiSpirito,
beginning his third season, feels that optimism is well-founded. Even though
his squad is composed of only 8 seniors, DiSpirito eyes '69 as the year the
Rockets will escape from the doldrums of three straight losing campaigns.
His hopes are reflected through a star-studded backfield, which should
emerge as the most explosive foursome in the Pennsylvania Conference.
Although a conference championship may be a year away, the 1969 Rockets
promise to be an exciting aggregation—one that will put points on the
scoreboard. There are weak spots. To what heights the Rockets will soar
will be dependent on how fast the inexperienced sophomores and juniors
shore up the gaps left by graduation. Improvement must come from the
offensive line, which must be rebuilt from the ground floor, and the defensive
secondary, which gave up 16 touchdown passes a year ago. Much of the
load must be carried by the eight experienced seniors, all lettermen, led by
Little All-American tailback candidate Jay Wagner along with his co-captain,
defensive back Steve Konick. Both were second-team All-Conference choices
as juniors. Eight starters from 1968 were lost through graduation, but 27
lettermen are back. Six regulars return to the offensive unit and eight to the
defensive first team. "Barring any key injuries, we should field the biggest
and best backfield in our league,” comments head coach Bob DiSpirito.
"The war cry at Slippery Rock is 'nine for nine in sixty-nine.' This is quite an
ambitious undertaking, but the staff feels it is not an impossible mission."
Klausing's tribe swept through regular season play last year with a perfect
9-0 record only to be edged 31-24 in the final 18 seconds by Delaware at
the Boardwalk Bowl in Atlantic City. Ranked among the top 20 small colleges
at the close of the '68 season, the Big Indians should once again prove to be
the Pennsylvania powerhouse. When Indiana University of Pennsylvania
head football coach. Chuck Klausing, glances at his two-deep lineup for the
1969 season, he sees both feast and famine. For example, on the lean side,
he sees that his tentative second-line units on both offense and defense
consist of 11 green sophomores, eight inexperienced and unlettered upper
classmen, and just three lettermen. On the plus side, however, when the
situation is good, it's very good. Last year's offensive spark plugs, the backfield that exploded for more than 38 points every Saturday, return for another
season together. Quarterback Wally Blucas will once again run the Big
Indian Attack, handing off to tailback Dan Cox and fullback Tom McCracken
and throwing to flanker Dave Smith. If sophomore Dave Connolly makes the
grade at offensive left tackle. Bob Prokay will vacate his regular spot there
and transfer to right guard. On the starboard side he will team with regulars
tackle Joe Kovalchick and tight end George Stark. On defense, veteran
safety Barry Ruffner heads the list of five regulars set for another campaign.
He will be joined by cornerback Chuck Hasse in the secondary while end
Jack Neptune and tackles Bob Pastine and Tony Ferrari will anchor the line.
Because of the serious lack of depth, however, several other varsity new
comers, in particular tailback Larry Monsilovich and defensive back Bill
Hall, could challenge for jobs especially if the injury bug hits.

Bald Eagles
EAGLES' OUTLOOK
Eagle coach, Al Jacks, can once again expect his charges to come
away with a winning slate. This is nothing new to the Clarion mentor who
has only dropped 14 of 54 grid contests since he took the leadership six
years ago. Since then his blue and gold teams finished 10-0 in 1966 cap
turing the state championship and followed up with the Western Division
crown in 1967 with an 8-2 ledger. Jacks' Eagles lost 13 lettermen, but have
28 award winners returning for action this season. Bob Erdeljac (5-11, 172),
a junior quarterback from Oakmont, is the big reason the Golden ones will be
in contention for the division title. Last year the sophomore signal caller
passed for 1,809 yards to finish seventh in the nation and second in the con
ference. His 57.8 percentage in completions topped the league, however.
The overall Eagle offense should be stronger with standout halfback Bob
Oberdorf (5-9, 168, jr.) and fullback John Abal (5-10, 198, jr.) to carry the
pigskin. Favorite targets of Erdeljac are Larry McNulty, a 6-0, 207-pound
senior and Jim Kocan, a 5-7, 160-pound split end. Anchoring the offensive
line is conference honorable mention tackle, Tom Komenda (6-0, 215, jr.).
Eight more seasoned veterans are also on tap to make the offensive unit go.
The Eagle defensive unit has only 3 defensive veterans left in the persons of
junior end Dick Smith (6-2, 185), senior middle linebacker Elmer Schultz
(5-11, 197) and senior defensive halfback Andy Brindger (5-11, 170). The
Jacksmen finished second in the conference to California's mighty Vulcans
in '68 only after a hard fought 26-21 battle. Powerful Indiana provided a close
18-13 loss while Delaware State also dropped the Golden ones. The Eagles
could very well claw their way to the top this year.

HAVEN STATE COLLEGE
BALD EAGLES' OUTLOOK
In his first year as the Bald Eagles' head mentor. Bob Weller will be
building his 1969 grid machine from among 70 prospective candidates which
include a nucleus of 18 returning lettermen. Coach Weller, defensive line
coach the last two years at Lock Haven and a graduate of Slippery Rock, will
find the majority of the Bald Eagles' defensive unit returning for the '69
campaign. All-conference selection Ron Beshore, a 5-9, 197-pound line
backer from New Cumberland, will anchor the defensive charges while
honorable mention winner Steve Jarrett, a 6-1, 213-pound center, will lead
the offensive line. Adding fire power to the Eagle air game is junior quarter
back Denny Rhule who totaled 894 yards last season both running and
passing. Sophomore Scott McLean and Mike Packer will back up Rhule in
the field general spot. Top backs include Jim Smith, a 6-0,198-pound senior
and Dan Elby, a 6-0, 180-pound junior. The Bald Eagles finished one notch
above the Scots in conference play at the close of last year's campaign, but
scared some of the top finishers in the league. They were edged 27-26 by
California, the Western Division Champion, and fought second place finisher.
Clarion, to a 14-3 loss. The Eagles should fly higher this season, but have
some tough opponents to meet on the schedule. Because of Lock Haven's
small amount of male students, Pennsylvania Conference officials have
given the College permission to use freshmen gridders in the varsity program.
This has bolstered Coach Weller's offensive unit and should add momentum
to the Maroon and Gray's scoring machine. Ron Beshore, Charles Brenner
and Steve Jarrett have been selected as tri-captains for the 1969 season.

RED RAIDERS' OUTLOOK
The Red Raiders graduated All-Conference halfback Lou Orndorff,
defensive end Wayne Wilkerson and linebacker Nick Dellaquila, two key
defenders in tackle Dave McNichol and safety Tom Andros, fullback Ed
Hammers and league's sixth leading passer, Steve Bumgarner. The tribe has
lost some hard core veterans from both the offensive and defensive units
which could spell a challenging season for Coach Dolbin's charges. John
Hetter, a 6-2, 185 pounder, and 5-8, 165-pound Steve Pallo are the leading
candidates for the quarterback slot. League pass receiving champ Al Bowman
(6-1, 180, jr.) who grabbed Bumgarner passes for 738 yards and 6 touch
downs in conference action will be one of the top targets for the Raiders'
new signal caller. At the flanker spot is Fred Keyes, a 6-0, 175-pound junior
while the backfield chores on the offensive eleven will be spearheaded by
junior fullback Russ Alden (5-10, 185) and Bruce Baustein (5-11, 180, jr.).
A pair of veteran senior guards Bill Lemanski, a 6-0, 205-pounder from
Ellwood City, and Chuck Bolash, 6-1, 195 pounds from Harrisburg, should
give added momentum to the Raiders' offense. Among the 26 lettermen
returning to the reservation is All-Conference defensive halfback Chuck
Hickes (6-1, 185, sr.) from Tyrone. Rounding out the defensive returnees is
a crop of juniors in end Bill Connelly (5-11, 190), middle guard Dennis
Gordon (5-11, 215), linebacker Dan Smith (6-1, 195), and halfback Bruce
Baustein (5-11, 180). The addition of some promising freshmen give the
Raiders some beefing up in the defensive alignment, but the big Iquestion
confronting the tribe in '69 is, how well will the offense move?

GOLDEN TORNADOES' OUTLOOK
The G-Men have had their difficulties on the gridiron in recent years but
the Golden Tornadoes are hoping that new head coach, Dan Frasier, can get
the program going in the right direction. The Tornadoes will again be a very
young squad with a roster that shows very few upperclassmen. The starting
quarterback slot will most likely go to sophomore southpaw Don Phillips
who took charge of the Tornado offense midway through last season when
Greg Haney received spinal injuries. Letter winners Joe O'Neill and Pete
Quinn are marked as Phillips' top targets. Both are juniors. The ground attack
will be led by Herb Braxton, a 6-1, 205-pound fullback from Beaver Falls
and senior halfback Gail Church from Darlington. Also scheduled for action
in the G-Men's offensive backfield are sophomore halfbacks Tom Wood of
Kensington, Ohio, and Gary Toot of Lisbon, Ohio along with senior fullback
Elmer Laslo and junior halfback Denny Stach. Returning at the tackles are
Mike Hink, a 6-1, 235-pound senior, and Bruce Smeal, a 6-1, 205-pound
junior while Steve Palyash, a 5-10, 190-pound junior, and Chuck McShane,
a 5-10, 200-pound sophomore are at the guard slots. Even though the
Genevans are young, they appear to have ball players who have seen a good
deal of varsity action. The addition of some promising freshmen talent could
give the Tornadoes some much needed depth and the edge needed to slip
into the winning side of the column a few times this season.

CALIFORNIA STATE COLLEGE
PENNSYLVANIA CONFERENCE
November 8—at California—1:30 P.M. E.S.T.
The Pennsylvania State Colleges Athletic Conference, organized in
1951, this year changed its name to the Pennsylvania Conference.
Location............. California, Pa. 15419
Enrollment..................................... 5,200
Head Coach.......................Bill Hepner
Seasons and Record........ 7, 34-20-3
Colors............................ Black and Red
Stadium...................................... Booster
Conference....................... Pennsylvania
1968 Record................................ 6-2-1

Series Record............................
California Leads 27-7-1
Athletic Director...................Paul Ross

Phone............412 938-2281, ext. 214
Its membership originally consisted of the 14 state colleges: Bloomsburg, California, Cheyney, Clarion, East Stroudsburg, Edinboro, Indiana,
Kutztown, Lock Haven, Mansfield, Millersville, Shippensburg, Slippery Rock,
and West Chester. In 1966 Indiana no longer was eligible for conference
laurels as it acquired university status.
The conference is divided into a Western Division and an Eastern
Division. Members of the Eastern Division include Bloomsburg, Cheyney,
East Stroudsburg, Mansfield, Kutztown, Millersville, Shippensburg, and
West Chester, while Edinboro, California, Clarion, Lock Haven, and Slippery
Rock comprise the Western Division. In basketball, the conference champions
of both leagues face each other at the end of the season to determine the
PC championship.
All 13 state colleges that compete in the PC belong to the NAIA, while
many are also NCAA and ECAC members.
VULCANS' OUTLOOK
Jeff Petrucci, the NAIA passing leader for the past two years, has
graduated, but the Vulcans are once again loaded. The Fire Gods could have
some trouble at the quarterback slot, yet have 24 lettermen and some experi
enced veterans who will aid the Vulcans in their defense of the Western
Division title. The Hepner-coached Californians walked away with a 28-28
tie against East Stroudsburg for the state championship last season and will
be looking forward to solo ownership of the coveted crown at the close of
the 1969 campaign. Returning are All-Conference guards Emil Letwin (6-3,
215) and Larry Randall (6-1, 240), second team All-Conference halfback
Ron Urban and the league's top punter, Don Roberts (40.5). Add to this a
few interior linemen like 6-3, 240-pound Bill Wilson; 6-2, 230-pound Jerry
Valencik; and 6-2, 230-pound Bob Callaway. The Vulcan tackles will cer
tainly give their opponents something to worry about. The downstaters'
defense has remained almost intact with the returnees and the Vulcan
running game could be much improved. Urban has had two years of expe
rience and junior Greg Ray (6-2, 195) has proved to be a promising back.
The offense also has senior flanker George Carlock to use as a pass target
for probable starting quarterback Bob Keys, a 5-11, 165-pound junior. A
repeat of last year's schedule will find the Californians looking to revenge a
1 -point loss (27-26) to Waynesburg and a 41-0 thumping by Indiana. Look
for the Vulcans to be on top in the West standings.

State College Football afternoon, at
home or away, is the Edinboro State

Under the direction of Dr. Donald Panhorst assisted by Mr. Karl Gombert, the

A specialty group of Tam'O'Shanters in
the true tradition of the Highlanders
provides added entertainment to the
afternoon festivities.
We hope that you enjoy the Edinboro

Joe Sass
Defensive Halfback
Al Raines
Tailback
Three Fighting Scot gridders have
forged their way into the Edinboro
record book this season. Sophomore
defensive back, Joe Sass from Hopewell, led the assault on the Clan'sannals
when he intercepted three passes in
one game against Clarion State to set a
new standard. Sophomore tailback Al
Raines from Aliquippa and Conneaut,
Ohio's Tom Rockwell, a place-kicking
specialist, also established new football
marks in a conference contest against
Lock Haven. Raines ran to five different
rushing marks with the longest run from
the line of scrimmage (85 yards), long
est touchdown run (85 yards), most
yards in one quarter (114), most yards
in one half (218) and most yards in one
game (260). Rockwell came up with a
record setting performance in the same
game when he booted field goals of 24,
26 and 31 yards. The three kicks not
only set a game record, but all came in
one period to set still another mark.

1969 CO NFERENCE C A N D ID A TES
HEAD COACH
Bill McDonald, assistant football coach at
Indiana University of Pennsylvania for the past
three years and head coach at Hopewell High
School from 1958-1965, will be marking his first
year as head football coach at Edinboro State
College.
McDonald directed Indiana University's of
fense during the past three years as the Big
Indians registered 24 regular season victories
against only three defeats. This year's grid squad
finished unbeaten in nine outings and proved to
be the greatest offensive team in Indiana's history
by tallying 360 points, an average of 40 points
a game.
The unblemished 9-0 mark landed Indiana
University the opportunity to play in the Board
walk Bowl in Atlantic City, New Jersey against the University of Delaware.
The Wilmerding, Pa. native guided Hopewell High School to a 46-25-1
slate during his seven years as Hopewell's head football coach. His 1960 ball
club defeated Braddock High 7-6 and broke their WPIAL 58-game winning
streak while his 1963 team captured the Midwest Class A Championship.
The Fighting Scots' new grid pilot has also served as an assistant coach
at Braddock and Latrobe High Schools. He acted as aid to Chuck Klausing,
Indiana's head football coach, through two undefeated seasons at Braddock
High from 1956-1958.
McDonald holds both a B.S. degree in education and an M.Ed. from the
University of Cincinnati where he played fullback under Sid Gillman, now
head coach of the San Diego Chargers and his assistant coach, Paul Dietzel.
This team was the original "Chinese Bandits," a defensive unit which later
became famous at Louisiana State University.
He has also earned over 70 hours of graduate credits from Cincinnati,
Penn State, Pitt and Indiana University of Pa.
"Mr. McDonald's coaching career has constantly been a story of success.
In addition to this aspect of his life, we were impressed with him as a man
who is prepared and capable to give both wise counseling and leadership to
young men in all phases of their development," stated Edinboro President,
Dr. Chester, T. McNerney, in making the new appointment.
McDonald will be met with the challenge of building a football machine
for the Scots that can produce wins. The last time Edinboro posted a winning
slate was during the 1965 campaign when the Clan garnered six victories,
two losses and one tie. He has already injected some innovations that hope
fully will push the Highlander football program down the right production line.
The new coach along with his wife, Joanne, and their three children,
have recently moved to Edinboro.

1968 AT A GLANCE
Few bright spots marked the Scots' dismal 1968 campaign which netted
the Clan only two victories in nine gridiron battles. The injury plagued Scots
rallied from a 13-0 deficit to trim visiting Ohio Northern 27-26 behind the
passing of Barry Masterson to even their record at 1-1 early in the year. The
Highlanders then found themselves on the short end of the score for five
consecutive Saturday afternoons before they registered a 31-7 verdict over
Geneva's Golden Tornadoes. The victory celebration was shortlived, however,
as California's mighty Vulcans came to town and clinched the Western Division
crown with a thundering 35-7 conquest to close the Clan's 1968 season.

THE COLLEGE'S HISTORY
The beginnings of the college were laid in 1857, over one hundred years
ago, when a band of Scotch-Irish farmers grouped together and founded a
private normal school at Edinboro by popular subscription to train teachers.
In 1861 it was chartered by the Commonwealth as Pennsylvania's second
Normal School and developed and grew through service to the Commonwealth.
A great forward stride was taken in 1914, when the Commonwealth pur
chased Edinboro Normal School. In 1926, alerted to the need for better edu
cated teachers for its schools, Pennsylvania made Edinboro a Teachers College
offering a four-year curriculum leading to degrees of Bachelor of Science in
Secondary, Elementary, and Art Education, and Library Science.
In 1960 the name of the college was changed to Edinboro State College.
Beginning in September of 1957, the college was empowered to grant de
grees of Master of Education in Elementary Education. In September 1961,
graduate study in secondary education was added to the graduate program.
In i 962 the liberal arts degree program was begun. Students may prepare
for various vocations as an arts and science major in Humanities, Social
Sciences or Natural Sciences and may receive a Bachelor of Arts degree.
The control of the College is vested in the Board of Trustees, composed
of nine rnembers appointed by the Governor of Pennsylvania. The Board of
Trustees in turn elects the President of the College who is responsible for its
administration. The State Superintendent of Public Instruction is an ex-officio
member of the Board of Trustees.
The College is accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of
Teacher Education, the Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary
Schools, and the American Medical Association. In addition, its curriculums
are registered by the New York State Department of Education.
president
Dr. Chester T. McNerney became president of
Edinboro State College in September, 1966. His
formal inauguration, honoring him as Edinboro's
thirteenth president, followed on April 22, 1967.
Dr. McNerney came to Edinboro from the
University of Akron, where he was the Dean of the
College of Education and was highly instrumental
in the development of numerous educational in
novations. He was cited as the motivating force
behind the University of Akron Classrooms
Around the World, and recognized for his scholarly
studies of comparative education abroad.
Dr. McNerney's primary areas of interest deal
with the improvement of the curriculm, the pro
gram for educational supervision and administra
tion, and the improvement of inter-personal reamong the various members of working groups. His concern in
this area has led to his writing of several books, lecturing and conducting
various workshops.
Under Dr. McNerney's guidance, the College has witnessed the growth of
administrative operations, broader forms of student government, and the
development of the future growth of Edinboro State College.
He is a man dedicated to the academic life, a tireless advocate of personal
involvement in the religious and civic affairs of one's community, and an
educator who visibly believes in and practices total individual professional
commitment.
Graduates of Edinboro have distinguished themselves in ail professional
fields: education, law, medicine, and religion as well as business and politics.

informal student counseling and guidance. The faculty is keenly aware of
professional interests and self growth. High qualitative and quantitative
standards distinguish the graduates of this college. The preparation of better
educated citizens has been an Edinboro tradition for over a century.

gram of Edinboro State College. The program is so conducted as to assure
wholesome use of leisure time, a healthy focal point for the experience and the
expression of group spirit, and a laboratory experience for prospective coaches.
