..i Student Board’s decision to take
-action against those who violate Penh
‘State’s code of sportsmanship by boo
ing at athletic contests seems thor
oughly justified utter' the outbreaks
.that occurred ‘Saturday night despite
?the piea voiced . by "Bez” Friday
against such a practice. Even the sad
spectacle losing a home boxing
meet for the first time in three years
presents no ' excuse for an obvious
“sour grapes” attitude towards the
.victors. If we can’t continue to win
Mike champions, we most certainly
'should make every effort to continue
losing like gentlemen. .

LIONS STAGE LATE
RALLY TO TRIUMPH
McMinn, McFarlane Lead Uphill
Fight in Last Home Game
For Nittany Five
By W. M. STKfiMEIKK Ml
Recreation hall rocked Saturday
night with the screams of over seven
thousand tensely nervous fans who
witnessed the Lions complete the most
successful home season enjoyed hy a
Blue and White cage club in years.
The heroic State team staged a late
rally that snatched victory from under
tho very noses of the touring Tar
tans of Tech. When the final gun
sounded, the Nittany passers found
themselves on the long end of a 30-to
-27 score.
, With, but Tour minutes to go, the
Leslie-coached men trailed Carnegie,
22-to-26. Three clean-cut foul shots
by Doe Conn and .Norrie McFarlane
mado the score 25-to-26. ’ But the
Skibos still led. It was then that
McMinn and Norrie turned the win
ning tide definitely toward the Blue
and White by cutting the .cords for
two-pointers. The contest ended with
Henning and Silverman augmenting
the close score with foul shots.
McMinn, Conn Make' Exit
In downing the Tartans, the Lion
five established a Recreation hall rec
ord of seven wins in eight home games,
a feat which-was accomplished by a
few State cage units in the days when
the Armory floor was in use, but not
since basketball activities were moved
•to Recitation hall. Both the Car
negie and the Nittany tossers were
just a bit off their usual form, but the
rough and tumble playing which en
sued only added to the excitement of
the evening.
For Ed McMinn and aeting-Captain
Conn, it was a final chance to exhibit
•their-cage prowess before a Recrea
tion.hall audience. And.their exit was
a brilliant one; Ed was high scorer
with ten points and Doc had seven to
his' credit. . True to-form, McFarlane
ran up a total of nine points- while
Henning, secured the remaining four
of State’s thirty.
