Cubs Top Eisenhower
By Jay Schonthaler
Sports Editor
Larry McAleer fired in 28
points and Jim Davis turned in an
exceptional defensive per
formance to pace Behrend's
basketball team to a 77-72
squeaker over Eisenhower and
earn them a split of last week's
pair of contests.
In a game earlier in the week,
the Cubs were involved in another
thriller, being edged by Walsh,
72-68.
McAleer was consistent
throughout the game against
Eisenhower as he riddled the
man-for-man defense for 14 points
in both halves en route to chalking
up his single game career high
and going over the 500 point
mark.
Davis, on the other hand,
limited Eisenhower's top scoring
threat, Neil Kromer, to four
points in the second half and
collected 12 points and 15
rebounds.
With one minute left in the
game, Behrend held a one point
lead when Pat Gahr went to the
foul line to try to increase the
margin. He sank both ends of the
one-and-one and the Cubs were up
by three.
Behrend controlled a missed
shot by Eisenhower and a Davis
to McAleer feed upped the dif
ference to five.
Eisenhower was down but not
out as they scored quickly,
regained possession and sought to
move within one on a one-and-one
foul situation.
The first shot went awry, the
Cubs Mark Chesko snared the
last of his 13 rebounds, and looped
a long pass to Eddie Evans to
clinch a five point victory.
Behrend's zone defense in the
early stages of the first half
proved ineffective, particularly
against Kromer, who dented it for
14 of his team's first 22 points.
Behrend quickly switched to a
man-for-man defense with Davis
assigned to guard Kromer.
Kromer finished with 24 points,
but was virtually shut off in the
second half, limited to two field
goals in the second half.
Head Coach Roger Sweeting
admitted that his decision to start
off in a zone was a gamble that
didn't pay off. "I thought we

could surprise them by going into
a zone, but the only ones who were
surprised were us."
Sweeting noted that his team
had beaten Eisenhower earlier
this year on the strength of a solid
man-for-man alignment and felt
Eisenhower would be expecting
the same setup from the outset.
Statistically, Jon Kennedy
ended nine points and 13
rebounds, while Gahr, coming off
the bench, contributed 10 points.
"I think he played probably his
best game .of the season"
Sweeting said of Gahr. •
Against Walsh, the Cubs were
also locked in a tight struggle, but
the win slipped away from them
as a last second attempt to tie the
game failed.
Behrend was down by two in the
final moments when they gave up
a bucket to Walsh_ The Cubs
moved down court hurriedly and
dropped in a shot with five
seconds showing.
They immediately called
timeout to set up a zone press to
swipe the inbounds pass and get a
final crack at sending the game
into overtime. The strategy didn't
pay off, however, as Walsh ar
ched a full court pass that ended
in a layup to squelch Cub hopes.
Sweeting maintained that he

Spring is just around the corner
and closer yet is the wrap-up of
the championships in the bowling
and basketball intramurals at
Behrend College.
In the keg intramural tourney,
we find the Aces Wild team with a
17-3 record holding a slim lead
over the 16-4 Zelda 111 quartet and
the rest of the pack is farther
back. Some top bowlers this year
have proved to be: Gary Bokoch,
Zelda 111 who is total pin fall
leader with a 24-38 count, league
leading average (162.6 per

game honors with 202 and has

was not disappointed with his
team's overall play. "I thought
we played one of our better
games of the season. Walsh is
probably one of the strongest
teams we've played all year."
But he added, "I would say we
caught them playing at less than
their best. Against us they were
content to coast."
Walsh threw a full-court press
at the Cubs for the entire game
but it didn't prove bothersome.
"In general we were able to beat
the press, get the ball upcourt,
and get a good shot" Sweeting
commented. Behrend's troubles
stemmed mainly from their
shooting, finishing at 37 per cent
from the field.
But Walsh's Ray Dungen, a 6'
6" freshman proved to be the
most persistent headache for the
Cubs. Dungen hails from Detroit
Pershing High, a school that has
turned out such notables as
Spencer Haywood and Ralph
Simpson. He connected for twenty
points to lead all scorers and
dominated the boards

What is the task of education?
Is it not to teach people to think,
to solve problems, to cope with
life, to find pleasure and in
spiration in literature, the arts,
philosophy, and even in their own
thoughts? Its task is to bring
students into contact with great
minds, not only of the present, but
also of the past. As John of
Salisbury said, "We are pygmies
standing on the _ shoulders of
giants."
Without the efforts of scholars
of past generations, we would not
be so far advanced as we are
today.
No knowledge is sterile if the
student is open-minded enough to
become interested in a subject.
Although I am not a biologist,
chemist, or mathematician, I do
not feel that the years I spent
studying biology, chemistry,
algebra, and geometry (required
subjects) were wasted. All know

the world and his relation to it. I
cannot build a computer, but
perhaps my students will find
satisfaction in meeting the
challenges of Latin and Greek.
Perhaps they will find humor,

Tuesday, the girls dealt a
smashing blow to Villa Maria's

me in thanking Mr. Stoner and

such a well-planned program.
Turning to the roundball
we see four teams left to fight it
