Between
the Lions
• with
The Sports Editor
:The Nittany Lion went.on - its first
big rampage of the year Saturday,
and chewed up everything in sight.
Vengeance was the keynote, as the
boxers took over Western Maryland
and the basketbalL team swamped
Cclgate. FM, the wrestlers, the Wash
ington and Jefferson meet, was 'just
another tough practice session to
keep in tune, while the freshmen cag
ere showed promise in winning from
the'Bucknell plebes.
The matmen'encountered little op
position, probably ,as little as they
kill encounter..all year. Inexperienc
ed, the W. and J. wrestlers were not
even a semblance of .a match against
Cheerful : Charlie Speidel's men.
Boxing was a different story with
the Lion ringmen"stzicked up against
4' time-Worn . Green Terror team. But
Coach Leo 'Houck's boxers ,stayed in
there, and put up such a successful
44ack against the invaders,• that the!
. Lions came out. on top. .We admire
tommy Slusser for the way he bat-'
tied against Intercollegiate champion.
Kaplan. Taking blows-- most, of the
time, and giving them whenever he
could Slusser stayed the whole route.
For basketball we say that the
game : Saturday night was the fastest
court contest we've seen in' our four
yerirs here. Captain McFarlane and
his team-mates buzzed around the
court like a swarm of bees, passing
all the while and waiting for an open
ing for someone to cut to the basket.
Their defense was so good that Col
gate had_ few chance's for cripples,
and were lucky to get their pointh

IWarlane, FktchOr High Scorers as Lions Battle
Through Air-Tight Defense for Seventh
Victory of First Eight Games
Reversing what had become almost
a second-half spurt tradition, f'enn
State's basketeers Saturday night
scattered their shots through a fast
game to successfully trample' Col
gate's warriors into the. waxen floor
of 13.ecreation' hall. The scorp-39-to-
Featuring the game was the almost
air-tight defense work .of both teams.
The Lions at times displayed flashes
of positive genius as. they twisted
through the Hamiltonian guard for
two pointers. Of"impossible" success
ful shots there were many.
McFarlane, Fletcher High Scorers
Morrie McFarlane topped the scor
ing list With twelve points to his
credit, while Jack Fletcher battled
through for ten,' Johnny *dier ac
counted for eight, and Curt Henn
ing and Dave Thomas picked off si.r.
and three respectively. Scoring start
ed almost with the whistle. - when
JOhnny Stocker casually accepted a
foul point. On hiS • heels was Jack
Fletcher, who shot past three Maroon
defender,' to net a two-pointer.
A free throw success by McFar-.
lane ended -the -Lion opening thrust
for the moment. Nittanymen had the
ball, but they just 'couldn't get
through, around, or over five -super
efficient Maroon watchdogs. The
Hathiltonians proceeded• to drop fiVe
points through the hoop, with La-
Flainme and Brooks netting two
pointers and Campbell capitalizing a
foul. .
Lions Take Time Out
The Lions took time out, consider
ed matters, and came out of the hud
dle to snare eight points before being
interrupted - by a Colgate time-out.
McFarlane shpt a long one, over the
heads of a Web-like Maroon defense
to score, Johnny Stocker dribbled past
the basket and then dropped the ball
over - his shoulders for two points,
Henning took advantage of 'two foul
shots, and as Colgate. called time out,
Jack Fletcher shot past the Handl
tonians for a successful peep shot.
Conferences seem to, work -both
ways. graoks dropped tivo goals in as
many minutes, punctuated by a suc
cessful snap `shot by Curt Henning.
McCormick followed , up with two
more' for the ',Hamilton- delegation.

Lion Boxers Win Bouts in First Five Weight
Classes; Slusser, Nebel Defeated
In 165, 175-Pound Groups '
El=
Fighting their way to successive
victories in the first five Nl,'eight,
classes, Penn State's varsity mitmen
easily off-sat a forfeited bout and de
cision losses- in the 165 and 175-pound
divisions to vanquish the Green Ter
rors of Western Maryland 5-to-3 in
Recreation hall Saturday night.
Neatly countering the rushes of
Bennet, Terror 115-pounder, Criswell
exhibited a nicely-timed straight left,
coupled with an occasional right cross
to gain an easy decision oiler Ben
net in the opening bout.
Watkins Wins by Decision.
Mike' Zeleznock, Lion 125-pounder,
flashed through one of the finest
boufs in his ring career to dispose of
Plater of Western Maryland in one
minute and twenty-eight seconds via
the technical knockout route. The
fray was the fastest of the evening
with Zeleznock setting a puce which
confounded Plater, who was called
from the ring after his first trip to
the canvas when it became evident
that a K. 0. was in the immediate of
fing.
Bob Watkins displayed a cool head
against Myers in the 135-pound con
test and met the slugging attack .of
the Terror captain with well-timed'
hits and rights which jarred Myers
and left him slightly wobbly by the
end of the third round when Watkins
was awarded the, decision.
Ferrero Takes Close Bout
In the 141-pound tilt Red Palison
!gained a close decision over Haines of
Western Maryland. All three rounds
were hotly contested with plenty of
!slugging and clinching featuring the
'attack of both participants. Palison
i gained a knock-down in the third
frame, which gave him a slight ad
vantage although 'Haines was up fast
seemingly unimpaired.
Paul Ferrero had a tough assign
ment 'in Keyser, Terror 114-pounder,
who looked good in the opening round
but succumbed to Ferrero's 'come
back' in the closing frnmes. The sec
cod round-was the most grueiing'with
both contestants attempting '.to land
hard rights., Ferrero Was the More
successful in this attempt. Ferrero
lopped' a close .third round to gain
a hair-line 'decision.., • ' . • •,
'Prank Nebel, opposing Gorski, one
of the two' Terror no2i„ guye his op
ponent steady opposition. through
three of the hardest-foUght rounds of
esterfield
the evening in the 165-pound tilt. Al
though Gorski won a clear decision,
Nebel's performance was one Of the
most creditable of the meet. Gorski
was obviously the more finished fight
er, but Nebel was at no time distinc
tly out-classed or endangered.
Shisser Gives Masterful Exhibition
Facing Bernie Kaplan, intercolleg
iate champion in the 175-pound divi
sion, Captain Tommy Slusser, al
though he dropped the decision, gave
a masterful ring ex%ibition against a
•heavier and more powerful opponent
which marked the contest us one of
the finest of the meet. Slusser coun
tered li:a*lt's attack with consistent
lefts and made Kaplnn's victory any
hing but easy to gain. W•eathering .
hard-fought second round, Slusser
came back with plenty of stuff in the
third which ended with both contest
ants engaged in a hot slug-fest.
In the unlimited class the Lions
'forfeited to Western Maryland since
Coach Leo Houck had no 'representa
tive to oppose Ponticarvo, giant Ter

take their second straigiit match by
a score of 34-to-0.
