HAZLETON COLLEGIAN
BREAK STREAK
WITH TWO LOSSES
The Swaithmore Center Five, the
first team to inflict a defeat upon the
Hucsters, arrived in Hazleton Feb. 9
with the intention of making it two
straight. But they were completely
outplayed and outclassed as the Huc
sters went on a scoring spree in the
second half to rout the nearly. Phila
delphians 97-52.
Overconfidence almost spelled de
feat for the Rudmanites as they
eased out a 77 to 69 'victory over the
Keystone Center on Feb. 11., on the
Scranton court in an extra period.
Peter Garber and Jack Sipple pro
vided the needed punch that enabled
the locals to turn back the hame team
for the second time this season.
Altoona suppressed a late Hazle
tonian rally to nose out the Rudman
ites 59 to 57 in the A.D. Thomas gym
Feb. 15.
On the short end of a 32 to 24
score at the halftime, the Hucsters
led by Billy Gardner and Chicky La
monica came fighting back to knot
the score at 44 all and then go on to
grasp a slight edge. However, Altoo
na, who needed to win to assure
themselves of a berth in the playoffs,
wrested the lead in the closing min
utes and managed to keep two points
ahead until the final gun. Gardner
was high man with 22 points.
Education is a conquest, not a be
quest; it cannot be given, it must be
achieved. The value of an education
lies not in its possession but in the
trouble to secure it.
At a party there is always rum foi

American group may be considered
an ambassador of our way of life.

each part of the country. Penn State
has been selected as one of the com
peting colleges.
Lew Stone, editor of the campus

Teachers Upset
In Charity Game
In a game played for the benefit of
the March of Dimes at the Weatherly
High court Saturday night tkp strong
Center quintet climbed all over the
Bloomsburg STC Jayvees and
emerged with a 69-43 triumph. The
contest, witnessed by more than 500
regional basketball followers, was the
main feature of the double header.
After taking the lead in the early
stages of the encounter, the Center
combination seemed invincible and
shrugged off every attempt made by
the teachers.
"Pistol Pete" •Garber continued to
lead the attack of the blue and white
by hitting the nets for twenty points.
Ray Kostick, another Center depen
dable, employed his shooting accur
acy and contributed sixteen points-to
the total. Some expert ball-handling
and defensive work was displayed by
"Bill" Gardner. The capable set-shot
artist of the teachers, Al Degates,
connected for five goals from the
foul line to prove himself the only
threat for the opposition.
In a previous encounter between
these two squads, the Center five was
victorious.
