spent much time this week sharpening the Pitt passing attack. Quarterbacks Carl DePasqua and Lou Cecconi and Tailbacks Bobby (General) Lee and Jack Smodic, put in long sessions throwing the ball all over the Pitt practice field, And the Panther ends, Leo Skladany, Bill McPeak, Walt Cummins, Bill Mihm, John Gregg and Charles Dowler put in just as long sessions catching the passes. The Pitt passing attack in its first | five games was not used too exten- | sively, yet it set up several of the {Panther scores. It was a DePasqua

| Lee, Smodic Should Help

The Panthers have thrown a total of 57 passes in their five games and {have completed 16. They have had | eight intercepted. It is not an imposing record, but it must be remembered that the Pitt air arm should be potentially much stronger with Lee and Smodic operating at left-halfback.

Purdue Uses Passes Toe

While brushing up his own passing attack, Fesler must also prepare to stop the potent Purdue air game which has been fashioned by Coach Cecil Isbell, one of the greatest passers of all time. The Boilermakers, despite the fact that they have several powerful runners led by the brilliant Ed Cody, are very air-minded., They have averaged 20 passes per game, Bob DeMoss, who played Saturday with a shoulder harness, and Johnny Galvin are their throwers. In the last three games against Illinois, Notre Dame and Ohio State, Purdue threw 73 passes and completed 32. Only four were intercepted.
