Friday, April 28, 1933 Between the Lions with The Sports Editor ■ Old Man Winter simply wouldn’t let the ‘Lion tennis team sneak in an early match, so the contest with Buck: nell, originally scheduled for tomor row afternoon has been postponed. This leaves the Lions only one fare on which‘to feed for the week-end—base ball. Both the varsity and the freshman 1 teams are scheduled for home games tomorrow afternoon. After*seeing the case with which the Bedenkmen dis posed of Bucknell-last week, we’re [ rather inclined to think that Nittany pans will be treated to another home victory at the expense of the St. Vin cent nine. As for the yearlings, to : ' morrow’s game with Bellefonte Acad emy will be the debut of their season. Over a hundred candidates responded to Coach Houck’s first call several weeks ago. With this amount of ma terial available and a little more luck than last year’s freshman club had, the class of 1936 should have .a team that will go places on the diamond. The cream of collegiate trackmen will have to be shaken up consider ably if Lion runners are to gain per • manent possession of the sprint med ley relay cup at the Penn Relay car nival in the City of Brotherly Love today and tomorrow. Penn State, Ohio State, and N. Y. U., each hold two legs on the trophy. The Lions first places were gained back in 1924, and then again just last year when that memorable combination of Grit savage, Dale, Van Kcuren, and Dun away upset all dope buckets from the rock-bound coast of Maine to the sun ny shorts of Florida, or somewhere. Of that team, only Gritsavage is not running for the Blue and White this year. However, his position has been taken over by Rhodes, the junior who • pushed'Cadet King in • the 440 all the way around the track last Saturday; If the. Lions can come home with the much-sought,spring medley, cup,, they, .will have definitely re-established a place for Penn State near the top of the collegiate track world. + + + The “latitude-longitude” '.football game on Wednesday which Higgins’ spring practice sessions, gave the fans thqir first opportunity to look over the material that will at tempt to shine up 'Penn State’s tarn ished football records next fall. On the whole, things looked pretty en couraging. Both on the offense and the defense the two evenly matched elevens showed a fighting spirit that bids fair to last until next October. Of course there were plenty of bumps and rough edges in evidence, but Bob will have plenty’of time to smooth things over before the Lions open their season against Lebanon Valley on the sevchth day of October, 1933. * —W.

That’s-what the .Lion diamondmen will be wary of when they seek to continuo their three-game winning streak against St. Vincent College on New Beaver field at 2 o’clock tomor row afternoon. Although the Bearcats from La trobe are an untried team this sea son, the presence of their record of eighteen victories out of twenty-one games the. last two years has put plenty of respect for the invading hosts info Captain Regie Smith and his baseball mates. In 193 L St. Vin cent had an undefeated season and last year they lost only three games. 'Still another reason for the Lions’ pessimistic outlook concerns the pres ences of Andy Sugent, mound main stay, and Shortstop Jack Dashner in tho St. Vincent line-up. Sugent, who is starting his fourth campaign with the Bearcats,- won nine games and lost' only three last year, and in his first season of intercollegiate com petition, he allowed an average of four hits per game. Visitors Have-Veteran Team Dashner, clean-up hitter, of the in vading host, has been- shifted from lead-off position, where he batted .413 in twelve games last year. When one considers that a lead-off man is gen erally handicapped by having to wait out the opposing pitcher, any batter who reaches the .300 class could be considered a threat to any pitcher’s dreams of a peaceful afternoon, let alone .413. Successful in. their last three starts, the Bedenk-men will take the field with the identical line-up that romped through Bucknell last Saturday, with the exception of the battery. Coach Joe Bedenk may rest big Keith Parks after , three straight mound victories and start either A 1 Deßonis or Johnny Lutcher, while Catcher Paul -Swan may miss his first game in many a moon, because of an injured thumb .suffered in action last week. BUCKNELL MATCH POSTPONED The match between the Lion nelmen and. Bucknell, originally scheduled for tomorrow*; has been postponed until May 16. Fear of wet courts resulted in the mutual agreement between the Bisonsand the Nittany teams. Next Saturday afternoon, the Lions will open their season against Temple here.

As defending champions of last year, and boasting a first, place in the relay in 1924, the Lions are ex pected to make a strong bid foi* per manent possession of the trophy. As a result of the trials'Tuesday night, Coach Cartmcll selected Rhodes to run the 440, Dale and Van .Keuren for the 220-yard sprints, and Captain Dunaway to run the anchor half-mile in the medley event. Dale won the 220-yard elimination dash in twenty pue and four-fifths seconds to win his place. .Aiders To Leave Today The two-mile relay team will be composed of Hughes, Seisky, Duna way, and Charley King, who beat Harvey in an elimination race Wed nesday afternoon to capture fourth place on the squad. Contending with a stiff breeze, King negotiated the course in two minutes and five sec onds to clinch his position. The team of two-milers will- leave this after noon. Dale, Aldrich, Van Keuren, and Rhodes will compose the half-mile team at the Relays Saturday after noon. Van Keuren, Dale, and Rhodes are also running on the two-mile team. Both races will be held Satur day, but the squad hopes to place against strong opposition. Sigels Will Compete In the field events, Penn State will be represented by the Sigels, Bob and Dick.

BRUTZMAN ’.r This afternoon, the Lion lacrosse team will attempt a comeback against the Hobart ten at Geneva in the first Same of a two-day trip. With the roush edges revealed in the Army game smoothed off, the Nittany stick men are looking forward to chalking up their first mark in the win column. Although lacrosse is the most popu lar sport at Hobart, the team seems to he weak this year, losing its first two games this season to Syracuse and Cornell. With the weaknesses of the Lion attack corrected, Coach Mike Loebs expects lo tuck the Hobart scalp safely away in his Blue and White traveling bag. ’Moulthrop Disabled Sixteen men made the trip yester day. Included on the squad were Cap tain Edel, Jim Reed, Moorhouse, Day, Weber, Hesch, Kane, and Coskery. Kline, Barnes, Rathmell, Koth, Bos nian, Kaulfuss, Hassan, and Maley completed the squad. The only varsity player not making the trip was Moulthrop, who suffered an injured shoulder in the Army game. Kline, Barnes, or possibly Hesch moves up to center, Weber, a sophomore, will fill Marty’s position at point. To Meet Syracuse Immediately after the game this af ternoon, the Lions will leave for Sy racuse, where they engage the Or ange ten tomorrow afternoon. The Ilillmen have yet to taste defeat this season, having defeated Hobart and Colgate on successive Saturdays, With the same line-up thal faced the Cadets last Saturday, the Lions will start the game with Jim Reed at goal, Day and Moorhouse at points, and Kane and either Hesch or Webtir at the defense posts, depending on whether Kline, Barnes, or Hesch get the call at center. Captain Jake Edel will hold his old job at second attack, with Koth at first attack. Bosnian and Kaulfuss are expected to start at the homo positions. Undoubtedly, the whole squad will see action some time dur ing the weekend.
