Between
the Lions
with
The Sports Editor
Spike Leslie went on a scouting
tour of his own last Friday night to
watch Bucknell play Western Mary
land at Lewisburg.. After seeing
Bucknell lead at the half and then
take it on the chin to lose the game
in the second half, he went down to
the dressing room to tell the Bucknell
coach a tale of woe. Throwing quite
a line, he explained to the mentor of
the Bisons how weak the Nittany Li
ons were this year and how easy it
would be for the Bucknell five to run
away with the game here Saturday
night.
A grin spread over , Spike's face
when he saw 'the same team that
played the whole game against Wes
tern Maryland take the floor here
Saturday night. But when those Bis
on huskies went in after the first
Sew minutes of play, the grin changed
to a frown. It was Bucknell' regu
lar team although not one of them
had been in uniform the night before.
To all of you who insist on yelling
"cut the long shots" at Captain Mac
Farlane and his teammates. It is the
only way to break up a strong zone
defense on the part of the opposing!
team, and gives the Lions the advan
tage of being able s t() rush in and take
the ball off the bodrd if the she
es. There is no way of 'breaking up,
this sort of offense, and if long shotd
averages improve, such a drive will
aid the Blue and White team consid
erably in the tougher games to come.
Lehigh is wrestling, minded and be- 1
lieves in starting its' season early.

start taking Syracuse into camp 24-

Lion Courtmen Tramp
Squad Begins
Washington
Lion Captain Is High
Scorer Against
Bisons
Outweighed twenty pounds to the
man, Penn State's courtmen succeeded
in trampling what looked like a com
plete Bucknell football team to a .14-
to-21 score in Recreation hall Satur
day night. Now they're taking prac
tice by easy stages in preparation for
the Washington and Jefferson battle
here Saturday night.
Coach Musser of the Bisans tried
to pull a fast one by starting his I
whole second team, the same squad
that lost to Western Maryland Fri
day night. After six minutes of inef,
fectual dabbling on their part, he pull
ed them out, and sent in Eicher and
Endler at forward posts, Druckenmil
ler at center, and Gilleland and Lich
enliter at guard positions, his first
squad, carefully concealed from pry
ing eyes until that moment.
Thomas- Missing from Lineup
The Blue and White squad started
without the services of Dave Thomas,
veteran guard, who was laid up with
an infected floor burn. Otherwise,
the role was the same as that ,used
to start the Dickinson match, with
Captain Norris Micrarlane and John
ny Stocker in the forward berths, Curt
Henning at center, and Jack Fletcher
and Keith Parks at guard.
With Bucknell's second choice men
starting, the game got off ,to a slow
start. During the six minutes that
the huskies were in, the Lions only
scored five points, the first on a foal
by Afacrarlane, and two field goals
by Johnny Stocker and MacFarlane.;
Enter the first team.
State Offensive Drive Starts
aucknell grabbed the ball imme
diately. Eicher shot a field goal, and
then, evidently realizing that some
thing had been slipped over on them,
Penn State _woke up, and five points
dropped in the right .direction, the
first on a foul by MacFarlane, fol
lowed closely by field goals by Stocker
and .MacFarlane, the last a beautiful
pop up from the sideline while guard
ed by two Bisons. Bucknell's zone.de- 1
dense wasn't bothering the Lion's,
who popped long ones. at' the hoop
'from any convenient part of the floor.;
Recovering the ball, - Druckmiller
and Laichliter, of the Bison
.and dropped* two;Poirders, .and were
immediately interrupted by Fletcher,'
!who slid one in from under the basket
for two points. Johnny Stocker came
to the front, snaring five points in
, a row, the last field goal a tip shot
!front the foul line while surrounded
by the stamping herd. Druekenmiller
finished off the half with a field goal, I
ending the period with Penn State
leading ..?g-to-bo.
likens Switch Style
Coach Musser started off with some
of his seconds on the' floor. Davis,
center, dropped a foul to start the
scoring. Fletcher nabbed the ball on ;
the tip-off to pick up two, points while
Bucknell's prides were waiting for the,
play to start. On the next mass-1
rush, Eicher took two pot-shots, missed
both of them, and finally' handed the
ball.to:Druckenmiller, who scored two
more for the Lewisburg heavies.
Norrie MacFarlane got his eye on
the hoop to pick up a field goal and
a foul, while Doc Henning netted two

out. Evidently becoming desperate at I

tha steady rise of Lion stock, the
Bisons suddenly switched to a sort
of cross between football and basket,'
ball, which they abandoned when
Johnny Stocker flipped one backward,
through the Kopp, while he hurtled
headlong into the mats.
Leslie Sends in Second Squad
. . .
MacFarlane and Henning added
three points to the Lion total before
Bucknell took time out. As the con
ference ended, Gilleland came .in for
Druckenmiller. Reznichak greeted
1 his new playmate with four snap,
!shots in succession, all of which miss
ed. He then succeeded in scoring two
points on foul shots as plyler entered
the. game to relieve Joel; Fletcher.
Blyler immediately_ dropped in a foul,
while MacFarlane snared one point on
a free throw.
Badmen, desperate, began to shoot .
every time a Bison got his hands even
near the ball. MacFarlane. grabbed
!it to score two tallies, and as Coach
,Spike Leslie sent in the second teem,
Blyler dropped two foul shots to boost
the score a little more. With the Bis
ons discouraged but fighting and the
Lion substitutes anxious to show their
'mettle, the game became a shambles,
out of which Riley emerged to pop in
'a fust
,one-handed field goal. Mike
boobs netted one point on a foul as the
game ended.
Norris MacFarlane was high scorer,
with four field goals and six fouls for
(fourteen points to his credit ; while
(Johnny Stocker tramped on his heels
with thirteen points,.five field goals
l and three fouls. Although the team
I obviously missed the 'services of the
always dependable Dave 'Thomas,
Keith Parks did a creditable job of
,guarding, while Curt Henning, in ad
idition to consistently nabbing the tip
off, pulled in four points for the Les
*men. Fletcher, although he fought
'hard to get the ball, failed to take ad
rantage of many chances to shoot.
Aggressive offensive work on the
ipart of MacFarlane, Stocker and
Zonecounted more than any other
one thing towards Lion success. Pur
ling the early part of the game, Stock,
•
er's snatching of Bison poises was
time after .time converted into two
points for the Blue and White, while
MacFarlane's aggressiveness in tangl
ed formations did much in getting our,
prise openings for Coach Leslie's
squad.

Penn State's hope for complete pis
52SSi011 of the Eastern Intercollegiate
Soccer trophy for 1933 were shatter
ed late Saturday afternoon when the
words "Penn State and Penn declared
co-champions of soccer league" were
flashed over the wire here from New
York City where representatives from
sixteen colleges cast their• votes at
the Harvard club.
Continuing a precedent started last
year when two teams were coined co
champions of the trophy because of
the tie between two undefeated league
'teams, President Johnson of the asso
ciation recommended that two cups
be awarded. No action was taken by
the league members to arrange for a
'final play-off, -because the expenses
to be incurred were cited as being too
high.
Officials Satisfied
Although both teams emerged vic
torious in all of their six games, Penn
State had a better goalie average by
leading with one-fourth of a point.
I Penn was recognized, however, be
cause the schedule included games
with six teams in the Eastern league,
while Penn State's listed four. Only
four games are necessary to become
eligible for championship.
Athletic officials here are appar
ently satisfied with the result, as well
as Coach Bill Jeffrey, tutor of the
Blue and White squad. They admitted
'that they couldn't overlook Penn's rec
ord for the season, but "hope that the
league will eventually arrange for a
final play-off in order to make the
title umlisputed."
Neil iNf. Fleming, graduate man
ager of athletics, and Robert E. Ar
thur, manager of soccer for the past
season ; represented Berm State at the
yearly meeting. Among the charges
agreed upon by the college represen
tatives were the rules to permit-three
re-subititutions instead, of one; man
agers to act as offic,ial,time r keepers:
and selection of three men to act as
a- rules committee. •

FORMER LION HURLER SIGNED
tn - NATIONAL LEAGUE TEAM
Phil Page, former Lion left-hander,
was signed with the Brooklyn Dod
gers, of the National league, recently.
He was graduated from Penn State
in 1927, and immediately entered pro
fessional baseball ranks.
In 1112,' Page received a try-out
with the Detroit American league
club, but, after appearing in only a
few games at the beginning of the
season, Was optioned to the Seattle
club, of the Pacific Coast league. Al
though Page won only ten games with
a club that finished in the league cel
lar, he was rated by experts as one
of the outstanding left-handers of the
circuit. He pitched 286 innings last
season.
