Friday, May 19.1933 Between the Lions with The Sports Editor -' Wednesday night, for the first time in months, we heard a distinct growl issue from the jowls of "an ageing Nittany Lion." It was such a definite stir that we thought for a while that it might develop into a real roar. It seems that students were going to hold a pajama parade— , a demonstration for Nate. There were almost' two hundred undergraduates assembled, all ready to paint the town red. They were rarin'to go. • Just at the crucial moment, how ever, some "nursemaids" for that "ageing Nittany Lion" stepped up. They said that the poor Lion couldn't stand a real honest-to-goodness roar. .The animal, they persuaded, Was al ready in such a poor state of health that over-exertion would surely be fatal. And so they gave the Lion a dose of soothing syrup and put the old animal back in his bed. "Oh, where is the spirit of yesteryear?" +++ "An Old Tinier" writes: "Nate must go! And since this seems to be the decree of the powers that be, let's show the outside world, the Trustees, the faculty, and King Intramural, just how much Nate means to us by turn ing out strong for the intramural track meet tomorrow afternoon. It will be the final Cartmell-conducted meet on New Beaver field. Youri for a fair Penn State." It's a good idea, Old Tinier. 'We'll be there and we have a hunch that there'll be a lot more Cartmell en thusiasts in the stands. Even if can't change - the minds of the "powers that he," we can at least show Nate just how many student and faculty friends he has. EZZOI . Down next to the bottom of this column you'll find a letter from J. H: B. '33. It's a letter that you simply must read to understand what is to follow. You see,. when we took over the job of conducting this, department we were'pretty much enthused-about the whole bUsiness. We 'had a lot of ideas and we were determined to discuss in our own "fearless" stile a lot of controversial questions about Penn State's athletics. We thought we might do some real good by being a medium of expression for student opinion or something concerning Lion sports. * Well, after all our sincere efforts, it seems that there are some who have misinterpreted our motives. S. H. 8., for instance. This is exact ly why we offer this explanation; and it is. an explanation, not an apology! We don't mind letters like J. H. B.'s. In fact, it's a happy day for us when we find our desk stacked with similar missives. For after all, if nothing else, it proves that we succeeded in getting some people to really think, even if-we (lid .do it by'"getting under their skin." _Nevertheless, we want to give our adoring public what they want. Is J. H. 33. ,the exception, or otherwise? To carry on the "banner of truth," "freedom of the press," etc., we're •going to need some back ing, some specific words of encourage ment from our "admirers." We'll wait, patiently. +.++ Someone surreptitiously left this little query on the corner of our desk. Couldn't you just Haidt the author?

LION NIN NITTANY BATSMEN FAVORED TO WIN Visitors Hold Record of 4 Out Of 5 Victories—Rate As Enigmas El=l Tales 'of Lion helplessness before bullets will be tested when the Gettys burg College Bullets invade the.lair of the Lion on New Beaver field at 2:30 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Back in the victory column as a re sult of •a 5-to-3 defeat administered to Dickinson College Wednesday af ter langUishing for eighteen days in the also-ran class in their battle against rainy weather, the Blue and White standard bearers will be facing an aggregation that has a record of but one defeat in five games played. Bullets Beat Middies Baseball fans who like their com parative scores will find something rather heartening and something rather disconcerting in the Gettys burg record. " The Bullets were de feated by Bucknell—a team the Lions conquered with ease—by a 9-to-3 score, but a week later they submerg ed Navy by a decisive 10-to-4 verdict. Gettysburg met the Bisons only four days after the Bedenkmen had finished walking all over them, 12-to -2, and at the time hardly lived up to their belligerent sobriquet. But their showing against the Midship men—whom the Lions defeated by a 4-to-2 score—classes them as enigmas for the Bedenkmen to solve. Deßonis May Start It looks as if Al Deßonis will get his first mound assignment of the year for the Nittany diamondmen. Keith Parks is capable of performing out of turn, but with such veteran talent as Deßonis ready to take the mound, pitching the Lion right-hand er seems a bit illogical. "Shorty" Edwards looked like a fix ture in rightfield in the Dickinson game, driving in the Lion margin of victory with a timely double and handling everything hit his way with the ease and assurance of a veteran. Catcher Swan's injured finger didn't seem to bother him and there prob ably will be no exceptional changes in the line-up. For Gettysburg, Morris will play centerfield; Eby, second base; Enders, shortstop; .TOnes, rightfield; Kitzmil ler, first-base; Dracha, third-base; Olkewicz,' catcher; Houghton, left field; Kozma, pitcher. IntramuratTfilek Meet Tomorrow Will Mark Cartmell's Last Stand When the annual intramural track contest opens on. New Beaver field 'at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, coach Nate Cartmell, for ten years Penn State's, track coach, will know what it is to see the swan song stage of his decade of service. Shades of . Allan Helfrich, Crip Moore, Bill Cox, and Al Bates may loons up again when the Greek track men match strides in the half mile event, top the hurdles in rhythm,. call up endurance in the two mile run, and streak down the runway into the pit in the broad jump. These former Lions, each a cham pion in his field, are products of Cart mell training, gold-stars on the ser vice sheet of the cinder path guide. Marion Ide, once Penn,State's ham mer throw artist, will be present in-to morrotv's imaginary picture. Varsity trackmen said "so-long" to their leader when they outpointed a Pitt team 72-to-63 at the Panther stadium Saturday. Whether or not such things are convincing, Dunaway, stellar half miler developed by Cart- The Fourth Estate Harpooned To the Editor: This letter in intended as one which the writer hopes will lead to the writ ing of more efficient and more inter esting news in the column bearing the heading—" Between the Lions." I have been considering.writing this letter for some time; in fact ever since I got the impression that the Sports Editor was trying to merely fill his column. Why this impression? - Be cause he has written of things of which he had little or no verification. I noticed in.one issue (May 5, 1933) where he uses the editorial "we" in re ' marking that it is best to rotate of ficials. - Just how many are involved in this "we"' or is it another "we" modeled on the Lindbergh scale? It is common among sports editors I on our foremost metropolitan news ' papers to interview occasionally the various coaches as to sources of in formation for articles. Since recog nized sports editors do that—why not our humble COLLEGIAN Sports Editor? And again to add to this - news source idea. If officials are not want ed, there are two sources of opposition to them. Ono source is the players. I have never been asked one question as to players' attitude toward Hayes, Dayhoff, and Gain And that goes for most-of the athletes I have asked about this matter. Another source of objection would be visiting teams. Se lections of officials in most cases are sent to the visiting team for approval.

"Shorty" Edwards, rightlielder, also has a .500 average, but it was earned in only one game. Bill Kascsak, Lion leftficlder, is second with a .291. percentage, a drop from .305 as a result of going hitless against Dickinson. '36 NINE TO MEET 2 STRONG TEAMS Wyoming, Dickinson Seminaries Listed As Opponents for - Week-end Meets . By A. CONRAD JUICES '35 Seeking revenge for the Close de feat suffered at the hands of Wyom ing Seminary batsmen last year, year ling tossers will journey to Kingston today to encounter the Seminary bats men. Returning to State College from the "black diamond" belt, the plebes will find another tough proposition awaiting them when they meet Dick inson Seminary in a postponed gdme on New Beaver field at 4 o'clock to morrow. While both games will give the '36 batters a chance to display their dia mond prowess, the most interest will center in the Wyoming Seminary tilt because of a 12-inning battle last year which ended in a 12-to-13 score. Plac ing a squad of heavy hitters on the field, the Wyoming twirlers will play their initial meet. 15 To Make Trip Taking fifteen men to the Kingston diamond, Coach Leo Houck will start Thorne on the hill with Stokes, Bock man, and Rugh as available substi tutes. Dyson will 'be assisted by Weaver behind the plate while Kra bitz, Larson, Leidy, and Miller will see action in the outfield. Houckmen to hold sack positions will be Evans, Bilacki, Sutliff', and Ochsner, with O'- Hara at short. Having practised five weeks in in tramural competition, the Smith coached outfit will begin a six-game schedule tomorrow. They will engage Dickinson Seminary next Friday at Williamsport and the yearling dia mondmen here Saturday. melt, finished second to another run ner in the 880-yard event for the 'first time in two years of record-making performances. ,•. Earning enough second and third place points to bolster their two first places, T. B. U. (Tape Breakers' Un ion) a non-fraternity team, annexed the championship of last year's tour nament. Phi Delta Theta followed the victors, garnering first honors in the relay to gain the place. Tomorrow's meet will be conducted similarly to a dual• meet, with track and field events being staged simul taneously. As a deviation, from last year's contest, the one mile relay will be conducted independently of the meet, being scheduled for New Beaver field, at 4:30 o'clock Monday. With the scores of non-varsity track and field contestants sprinting, jumping, throwing weights and top ping hurdles, the parade-by-proxy of former LiOn greats should offer, tra dition dictates, a farewell that rings of glory in, the molding of long-re membered, athletes. ficiate has .often been asked for by visiting team. Bucknell's ball clan through its coach particularly asked for Mr. Gair. Is that not proof enough as to the "why" of their con, stantly being engaged? I have always read the COLLEGIAN and consider its technical arrange ment and most of its staff to be ex cellent. This letter has been in my mind for weeks and would never have been written if new news had been forthcoming in the column I' am criticizing. Students get tired of reading old stuff—especially when it . ;is questionable as to.its verification. There is enough materiel in the prop er hands available to fill .up your column with "real" news.

Wally Walus, Lion second-baseman, opened the inning with a resounding triple to deep rightfield and Captain Regie Smith was hit by a pitched ball. After Brewster had popped up, Left fielder Kascsak was safe when Tam anosky, Cray and Red hurler, fumbled his weak grounder in front of the plate to load the bases. Edwards lids Double "Zev" Zawacki made thr. , second out of the inning via the strike-out route. and the rally seemed due to die with out a Lion score. But "Shorty" Ed wards, starting his first game of the year in rightfield, drove a long double to right-centzr and three runs came across on the hit—enough to• give the Lions victory.. Scoring a run in .the first inning, the BedellJulien got off to an early lead and were never headed during the remainder of tho game. A bate on balls to Walus, Captain Smith's single, and Hughes' low throw to second while attempting to start a double play on Kansales infield roller brought the Lion second-baseman over the plate. Devils Stage Rally Not content with a four-run margin, the Blue and White cohorts hiked their lead to five in the fourth stanza. Catcher Paul Swan's single, Parks' deft sacrifice, and Captain Smith's second hit of the game brought the Nittany backstop home with the last Lion tally. Dickinson didn't capitalize a scor ing threat until the fifth when they broke out in a three-run scoring rash. A single, a walk, a, stolen base, and double after two were out brought all three runners over with the final runs of the game. Th.a Gray and Red' invaders were not as impotent during the other eight innings as the score indicates; how ever. A seventh inning rally put two Red Devils on the paths when Ed wards made a nice running catch of MUSHBALL 'LEAGUE LEADERS TO MEET Clt Phi, Commons Club Will Enter Championship Encounter This Afternoon As a result of.theintramural mush ball quarter-finals,.Chi'Phi will meet Commons Club in the playoff for the championship this afternoon. The place and hour of the final contest had not been arranged late yesterday afternoon. Gaining the finals by subduing Sig ma Nu 7-to-4, and Tau Kappa Ep silon 9-to-0, the Commons club aggre gation will enter the encounter fresh !from an uninterrupted string of de-. !cisive victories. Chi Phi, by virtue of.a. victory'over Sigma Chi, earned after a stubborn contest, emerged front thequarter finals with that one game represent ing their single near-nemesis. Both teams have displayed hitting prowess in their respective advances to the front. Turning back a determined' Phi Del ta Theta diamond squad by a 7-to-4 count in their bid' to the finals, the Commons club batsmen finished their lead-up schedule without leaving a closely disputed contest, behind them.

The postponed meet with Bucknell will be held at 4 o'clock this afternoon. while the Nittanymen will oppose Dickin son at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Hank Hartzler still heads the list of the Penn State squad, after proving his ability to employ machine gun tactics to tennis situations last week end. Bud Green has developed his stroking to a point where efficiency has become natural, and he'll prob ably play as number two man this af-. ternoon. Captain Bud Wilson will probably line up in position number three in today's matches against the Bison'net men, while Pin Block is expected t.) battle in the fourth singles contest. Positions five and six in the singles matches will go to Charlie Shaeffer and Skillen, with Shaeffer slated to play number five man on the Buck nell squad, and Skillen to compkte the afternoon's singles contests.. After the experience of last week, the Nittany doubles squads are ex pected to work together better than ever before against the invaders this afternoon, as well as in the contests tomorrow. Number one matches against both the Bisons and the Dick insonians will be fought out with Pip Block and Bud Green representing the Lion hopes, while the Hartzler and Shaeffer combination will oppose the number two doubles teams.

SIGMA BOOTERS WIN SOCCER TITLE Delia Sigma Phi Team Blanked By 3-to-O Score in Last Intramural Game Finding the net on two occasions in tit:, first half, and again in the second half, a Sigma Mu soccer team defeated , Delta Sigma Phi hooters, hold ing them scoreless in the champion ship contest staged Wednesday after noon. Suede Hansen's toe figured largely in the campus team's unchallenged at tack, the Sigma Nu bunter registering all the points in the encounter, lead ing the attack for his team. Hansen Opens Scoring Delta Sigma Phi won the toss-up, and elected to receive. The game was yet young when Hansen took a pass near the side of the field and dribbling into scoring position, booted the ball netward for the initial counter. Buck Scatchard, Jack Cope, Pete Wacker, Don Masters, and Harry Jaquiss started the game for the Lo cust Lane quintet, Cope, Masters, and Jaquiss turning in commendable per formances for the Delta Sigma Phi cause. Hansen, Frank Nebel, Jim Boring, Ken White, and Carl Wittum lined up for the victors. This combination subdued Delta Theta Sigma in the semi-finals to earn a passage to the title contest, while Delta Sigma Phi eked out a 2-to-1 victory over Alpha Gamma Rho hooters to compete in the deciding engagement. Hansen found the net later in the first half to raise the Sigma Nu lead when he booted a quick goal from a difficult angle of the field.

Rodney Bliss, amateur golf cham pion of Nebraska, will lead the Red team against the Lions. Bliss, who is reputed to be an accurate putter, was also a strong runner-up in the National Amateur Championship. Persons, who plays in number three position, handed Captain Freddie Brand his first defeat in intercollegi ate competition in their match but year. Sickles May Start Although Cornell's record this sea son has been marred by a 0-to-0 de feat at the hands of Colgate, Coach Bob Rutherford expects strong oppo sition from the Red golfers because of their steady play in_ previous matches this year. Scores in the low 70's enabled them to defeat Lehigh and Army. Beyers, Marshall, and Ritenour will occupy the first three positions on the Lion team, while a last minute choice between Hetzel and Sickles will be necessary to decide the fourth man. Sickles won the right to contest num ber four position in Saturday after noon's meet when he turned in a 73, low score for the match. , • I The Corner unusual YOU'LL do a lot more if you're feeling fit.
