Alleva Leads Engineers
Past Bisons; Leopards Idle
An outstanding performance
by senior quarterback Joe
Alleva, of Suffern, N. Y., paced
Lehigh to a convincing 33-7 rout
of Bucknell last weekend as the
Engineers (6-3) chalked up their
fourth straight victory.
A crowd of 10,300 watched in
Taylor Stadium as Alleva passed
for three touchdowns and scored
one to turn back the Bisons (2-7).
The contest was Lehigh's final
outing before the 110th game
against Lafayette—in college
football's most-played rivalry-
Saturday at Easton, Pa., when
the kickoff will be at 1:30 p.m.
The Leopards (3-6) have lost
their last four starts. They were
idle Saturday.
Lehigh, which took command
of Davidson one week earlier
with a 31-point second quarter,
unloaded against Bucknell with a
20-point outburst in the same
period for a 20-0 halftime advantage. When fullback Rod
Gardner, of Maplewood, N. J.,
ran 58 yards on the first play of
the second half to set up a fourth
TD it was all over for the Bisons.
Final statistics are very
misleading, indicating a close
contest, when in reality Lehigh
held a firm upper hand from the
second stanza until the finish.
The visitors piled up a lot of
yardage between the 20s but
couldn't score until Kerry Snow
found Mike Pensabene on a 37-
yard pass in the fourth quarter.
Lehigh's defensive platoon, led
by linebacker John Healy of
South Orange, N. J., safetyman
Jim Addonizio of New
Shrewsbury, N. J., and tackle
Stan Fendryk of Greene, N. Y.,
excelled for the third straight
week.
In the first chapter an interception gave Bucknell the ball
on the Lehigh 38 but the Bisons
were halted at the 17 and came up
with a zero when a field goal
attempt missed the mark. In the
second a wild center pass, on a
punting situation, resulted in a
poor kick and the Bisons took
possession at the Engineer 20.
Four plays later they
relinquished the ball at the 19.
The defense sparkled in the
recently-completed home stand
as Lehigh downed Gettysburg, 14-
6, Davidson, 53-6, and Bucknell,
33-7, allowing only 19 points.
The second quarter heroics
found the Engineers moving for
touchdowns on marches of 45, 56
and 58 yards with most of the
damage coming through the air.
Alleva   completed   eight   of   16
tosses in the period for 114 yards
and touchdown strikes of four
yards to tight end Mike Lechner
and nine yards to wingback Bob
Handschue. Gardner had the
other TD on a plunge.
Any Bucknell hopes of a second
half comeback vanished on the
first play from scrimmage in the
third quarter as Gardner fought
loose on his 58-yard jaunt to the
Bison 13. Alleva added seven
yards off the right side, tailback
Mike Chieco of Manhasset, N. Y.,
contributed five and Alleva
tallied through left tackle on a
keeper.
Chieco was subbing for freshman star Mark Weaver who sat
out the second half after suffering
an ankle injury. Coach Fred
Dunlap hopes he'll be ready for
Lafayette but a decision may
have to wait until gametime.
Following Bucknell's only
touchdown the Lehigh eleven
retaliated immediately with a 72-
yard drive to complete the afternoon's scoring. Aided by a
pass interference penalty the
Engineers reached the Bison 25
and Alleva pitched the ball to
Gardner who found a lot of
daylight in a dash down the right
sideline into the end zone.
Gardner, although carrying the
ball only nine times, led Lehigh
on the turf with 80 yards. Bob
Langan matched that for
Bucknell but needed 16 tries.
Weaver was off to a good day
with six carries for 36 yards when
he was injured in the second
quarter.
This was Lehigh's fourth in a
row over Bucknell and the fifth
triumph for the Engineers over
the Bisons in the last six tries.

Bill Leckonby, director of
athletics at Lehigh, has been
