9 LION TRACKMEN
CHOSEN TO ENTER
, IC-4A COMPETITION
Harvey Stands Out As
Best Chance For
Lion Scoring
By JACK BARNES
Coach ‘Chick’ Werner has selected
nine varsity track and field perform
ers to match their wares against the
‘cream of the crop’ at the fifty-sev
enth annual IC-4A championships to
be held at Franklin Field, Philadel
phia, tomorrow and Saturday. The
group left at noon today.
Harvey, by virtue of his season's
performance, has the best chance of
scoring. In the half-mile event he
has scored a second against Keller
of Pitt, who won in a fraction over
two minutes; was awarded a second
place at Army, although winning by
several inches; and took the .event
against. Syracuse in the fast time of
1:57.6 in last Saturday’s meet.
In the mile run,'in which he will
probably also be entered, he won
against Pitt in 4:38; wag third at
West Point; and won last week in
4:24.2. 'Woolridge, after winning a
slow quarter in the Syracuse meet,
will team up with Harry Sigel in the
440. Cessna and, probably, Sigel,
the season’s most consistent perform
ers, will step the 100- and 220-yard
dashes.
Jackson, and Van Keuren, who, like
Woolridge, will be completing their
intercollegiate track days, will com
pete in’the two hurdle races. Jack
son, with two fast winning perform
ances last Saturday, will enter both
the 120- and 220-yard hurdle races;
while Van, who has taken a first
and a third in the 220-lows during
the three-meet season, will enter on
ly this event. Watch them.
Three field event men will make
the trip. O'Shea, after having been
sick most of the season, and winning
a third place against Syracuse, will
compete in the high jump. Sigel, with
a first, second, and third in the dis
cus—all under 130 feet; and Thom
as, with a third in the discus, will
compete in this event. O’Shea is the
only senior.
;the fifth on a long.drive by Scott.
The latter rounded the) bases .but
overlooked the necessity of touching
second base and so his trip did not
score.
Juniata piled up six runs in the
seventh and Dahcr' added the final
counter with a tour of the sacks in
the ninth. Coach Joe Bedenk start
ed the game with ‘Jack Lutcher on
the mound, substituted Stokes in the
sixth, and finished the fray,with
ICeith Parks.

THE PENN STATE COLLEGIAN
WRIGHTING
Between
The Lions
'By FRED W. WRIGHT' —-- 1
' There comes a time in every
coach’s life when it falls his Jot .to
get credit for producing a'team that
doesn't appear very good in the
light of games won and lost. That
being the case Joe Bedenk, who was
known as ‘Hutch’.when he was All-
American guard here in 1924,
shouldn’t worry too .much and cry
around because his 1934 baseball
•team has-lost five games.
A .Lion baseball team with a .500
average under the Bedenk manage
ment-this late in the season is
something new around these parts.
This is.Bcdenk’s fifth year at the
helm—four hayc been unqualified
sucesses. Last year the club'/ re
cord sagged,'true, but coaches can’t
beat'the rain.,
'There’s another'factor they can’t
•beat, /Once, every-so often, i‘.h-e vet
eran material runs out. That is
what -is wrong this year, apparent
ly. To start,with,.Bedenk had only
three ball, players; right now he’s
got four. Progress, that.
Kascsak,Zawacki, and Parks were
the goods; on pre-season paper. Za
wackl, shifted, from first-base to
catcher, is thriving beyond all ex
pectations; Kascsak is as good as
he ever was; Parks, brilliant last
season, ought ito have been named
Roy Mahaffey,. A’s pitcher who Is
known-far 'and.wide as the enigma
ot the major leagues;
That .was the set-up when the
season opened. " Now the first- two
-are still in that classification,-with
Johnny Stocker who wasn’t any
thing extra as a rjghtflelder in 1933,
and Bill McKschnie, 'sub-flrst-base
man, being added this year. Stocker
at -second and M-cKechnie at first
are the life-blood of .the infield, out
side of what Zawacki adds..
But Bedenk has one 'consolation.
Given four ball players this year,
he’ll have-, two next .plus at least
four more who are learning the busi
ness this year and are. scheduled to
arrive in 1935. Witness the Stocker-
MoKecbnie case. Miller, .Bielicki,
Larson, Stokes,,O’Hora, 1 Mikelonis,
Sutliff,.,Woolbert, and.Dabulewlcz
are all-candidates forjthe nomina
•tiori; four of them should make the
•grade. And six ball/players is a
high, percentage /for /any. college
baseball team. ./ .. //•

Tally by Kilfoil in Final
20 Seconds Wins
Class Game
Only a Merriwell shot hy Johnny
| Kilfoil in the last twenty seconds
! of play saved tho sophomore lacrosse
team from defeat at the hands of the
freshmen ten Tuesday afternoon. The
final score was 5-to-4 in favor of the
second-year men.
The field was very slippery due to
the rain and so the real strength of
either team could not be discerned;
however, the freshmen proved that
they could 'Jiandle a stick with more
than mediocre ability. ’
The. sophomores were handicapped
by lack of practice but the work of
the. men who played, on the varsity
ten was outstanding.' ‘Tony’ Robe
son and Ed Rumbaugh, who captain
ed the sophomores, led the attack.
‘Bob’ * Golder, ‘Serge’ Pechinsky,
‘Woodie’ Douthctt, ‘Gerb’ Gerber,
who played varsity goal through the
season, and Johnny Kilfoil' played a
fair game considering that they have
never practiced together.
Freshmen who have developed rap
idly this year and who showed up
well in Tuesday’s game are Cherun
clolo, and Eisenman, who looks like
a good ; candidate for one of next
year’s varsity defense positions. The
work of Conley, Ritzie, Macario, Wil
liams, Cresson, Himoff, Houtz and
Hoft was also above par for boys
whp have been handling a stick for
only a short time and it is expected
that the frosh will give the sopho
more ten a real battle when they
play again tomorrow.
est game yet. The Chi Phis were
eliminated by the Pi Kappa Phi i
twirlers, 8-to-G, only after a valiant
struggle in which the victor wasn’t
decided until the final stanza.
Recommendations for heroic serv
ice on the field of battle go to Pitch
ers Morini, of the D. U. estate, who
has .permitted only 4 runs; Bradford,
Pi Kappa Phi; and Downey, Beta
speedster. A bouquet-of dandelions
should also go to Atkinson, Chi Phi
'twirler, who gave nice performances
somewhat spasmodically.

Netmen Will Close Season
Against Strong Red Team
‘Pip ’ Block, Nels Green, Jimmy Smith, Heyison,
Captain Skillen, Manwaring To Play
By CHARLIE
With four victories and three de
feats chalked up against them, the
Lion netmen will dose their season
here nt'2 o'clock Saturday afternoon
with a strong squad from Cornel!-.
The Red courtmen have won most
of their meets this year, and they
carried a heavy schedule.
Coach “Dink” Stover estimates
their strength as somewhat better
than Pitt, but not as powerful .as
Navy. The Bears barely squeezed
out a 5-to-*l victory over Rutgers last
Saturday.
Coach ; Stover will use practically
the same'line-up as he did on last
week-end's -away tilts. ‘Pip’ Block
will- come up against powerful op
position when he meets Hainilton in
the first singles position. Another
tough match is ' expected by Nels
Green with Marcus. Condon, regu
lar Red second position man, has been
out of competition for several weeks.
Jimmy Smith will meet Captain
Sklarsky, who lost his match last
week, while Captain Randy “Playing

NITTANY GOLFERS
WILL MEET PITT
Last Week's Foursome Ready
To Attempt Comeback Over
Strong Panther Team
By WrALT FREUNSCH
Pitt's golfing Panthers, boasting a
record of seven successive victories
up to last Saturday, will be just as
anxious to • maintain their record as
the. Lions will be to get back in the
winning side of the book, when the
two squads tee off on the College
course-at 2-o’clock Saturday after
noon.
Captain • "Chick” Beyer and Tom
Marshall will play in the number one
and two positions as usual, while Dick
Ritenour and Don Masters whp seem
to be rather permanent fixtures, will
comprise the second . foursome’s Blue
and' White' standard-bearers. Al
though other varsity squad members
usually' play off among themselves
for the right to challenge one of the
first four, this week found no - one
willing to tackle any of the regulars.
Following the Pitt match, the Li
ons will- take a breather before they
oppose Penn linksmen in the wind-1
up on June 9, in what should .be a
stiff meet, since the Red and Blue
lost to Cornell only by a d-to-3 score.

his first season of varsity tennis.

This is Heyison’s first year in Var

is a junior, he never came out for

YEARLING BATSMEN
TO MEET WYOMING
Smith, Kornick, Slated To Start
■As Battery for Plebes
In Wind-up' Till
By DONN SANDERS
The yearling batsmen will stack up
against some of their, strongest op
position of the season when they meet
the ( Wyoming Seminary nine in their
wind-up game on New Beaver field
at 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon.
Coach Leo Houck plans to start
Smith and Kornick, his most depend
able* battery combination, against the
boys from Kingston. Rhodh and Rob
bins,'will again start at the first and
second bags, while Wassol will be at
shortstop and Slobodian at third.
Substitutions Expected
. In'the pasture, Coach Leo will start
Hackendorn, Dutka, and Zwicky.
Others who will probably see action
during the contest are Girton, catch
er; O’Brien, third sacker; and liass
ler and Ollcndikc, outfielders.
With only one loss on their rec
ord, and that in a ten-inning fray
with the strong Bucknell Bison year
lings, the Cubs are out for a victory
! Saturday. And after their 12-to-4
defeat of'the Cook Academy nine here
last week, they are in top form and
should get it.
