THAT CHRISTY AND HIS (Forrest Hunsicker, Directing 'Route 402 est Virginia, Penn To End Varsity Baseball Season RICHTER FAILS TO LOOK IMPRESSIVE IN CRISSOP BOUT White Drops Fight To McGoslin After 2 Fast Rounds By HARRY HENDERSON '‘lzzy’ Richter) national A. A. U. heavyweight champ, had a chance to -show Penn State what he could do for the first time yesterday after noon on the sun-beaten high school athletic field when he fought Ray Crissop, ’ middle Atlantic A. A, U. heavyweight champ, in' a bout for which, because of some rule of the A. A. U., no decision could be given, and .he. failed to be impressive.- . The first . round was extremely slow with Richter looking as though he was waiting for a street car and Crissop as though he was trying to catch one. In the second round Rich ter changed his mind and started to amble after the street car himself* He seemed to lose his head a couple of times and cast dark glances, at Leo Houck, Lion ring mentor, yhen he repeatedly tried to break up what little in-fightihg there was with gen tle words. Crissop took things sort of hard in the third and it was easy to see.that he needed the bell. He finally got it after getting pummeled a bit more by Richter who was be ginning to give up chasing street cars. ‘Woodic’ White, former A. A. U. 175-Ib. champ, started out on the right path when his bout with ‘Goose’ McGoslin, of Lock Haven, opened up with all sorts of fast man euvers arid hard slugging, but he 10.-. t the decision by every vote. The cash; customers sat up'in their Hard seats in anticipation of a good fight after a couple of fantastic and drippy pre liminaries. White seemed to be defi nitely superior in the first two rounds but sometime after the opening of the third, he died, figuratively, of course. He could hardly stay on his feet through the closing minutes of the round. WIN I. F. BRIDGE TROPHY .The'lnterfraternity contract bridge trophy has been won by the Pi Kap pa.

WRIGHT - ■■ ■ ‘Throat cutting’ among colleges, in regard to outbidding each oth er for recruits, was frowned up on by the Pennsylvania Associa tion of College Presidents in their last session here. The Associa tion’s official frown, however, was registered against the wrong field of endeavor, since it dealt only with high, school graduates. Not a word was said about, tactics in volving sophomore athletes who have . made good in their first year.

Qoach Boh Higgins' football team will probably be hit the hardest when ten of the twenty-nine lettermen, nine-of whom are linemen, finish their curricula. They are Parker Berry, ‘Tony’ Be doski, and ‘Rem’ Woolridge, guards; ‘King’ Cole and Bob Flood, tackles, Captain Tommy Slusser, ‘Rosy’ Ro senberg, and ‘Bueky’ McKee, ends; ‘Andy’ Anderson, center; and Dave Long, halfback. Six of the eight lettermen in bas ketball will be graduated, leaving Coach ‘Spike’ Leslie just as badly off. Captain Norrie McFarlane, forward; Curt Henning and Carl Wittum, cen ters; and Dave Thomas,.‘Laddie’ Bly lcr, and Keith Parks, guards, are leaving. The boxing team, though : losing in numbers, is still powerful in mater ial. Coach Leo Houck will bid adieu to Captain Tommy Slusser, Frankie l Nebel, Bob Watkins, Alex Turnbull, Paul Ferrero, ‘Red’ Palison, Johnny Comet, and Johnny Hcrasimchuk. This leaves only two lettermen—Cap tain-elect Mike Zeleznock and Russ Criswell. Of thirteen “S” men in wrestling, WEBER WILL LEAD TEN Robert E. ‘lggy' Weber , ’35 was elected captain of the Lion laerosse ten for next year at a meeting of the letter winners of this year’s squad late this afternoon. He' starred at cover point in every game this year, the left-hander with the Yankees ■has nearly equaled the doggedness of the Dark Ages hero in his eight time losing battle to keep the Danes out of England and his ninth-hour victory. Van Atta'tried six times to win his first major league victory and was rewarded Monday on his seventh attempt. That victory, 13-to-fl over the St. Louis Browns, put Van Atta in a special class. Only two oth er pitchers have been able to win on the Yanks’ last western tour Van Atta pitched only in the sixth inning, but his mates-came through with a seven-run rally after lie had been removed for a pinch-hitter and consequently the credit for the victory wont to the former Lion. + ♦ + • This writer has seen 100-yard runs for touchdowns, field goals from deep in the back-court, and fans for his awkwardness as cen ter on the basketball team and never getting discouraged; to Dave Thomas, who was the soul of the Lion five all year, a relent less ’fighter, sacrificing personal glory that might have been his to give a man nearer the basket a set shot; to ‘King’ Cole, who in football and as a title-holder in wrestling showed himself fa a gentleman when fate robbed him of greater honors; to Roy Reed, who as point on the lacrosse team was always consistent and was one of those stalwarts-who, contributed • to a victorious team; to Stan Za wacki, who is the backbone of the Lion baseball- team at his new po sition of catcher; to .Jack Luteh er, a pitcher who, although han dicapped by bad eyes, and nudged out of starting assignments by a man who has the ‘goods,’ never theless does his best and is will ing; to ‘Shorty’ Edwards, who was demoted from a regular to the bench but still gave encourage ment to his successor on at least one occasion. These, praise can never reward fully. r Sports Teams ilars by Graduation Coach Charlie Speidel will be minus Captain ‘Rosy’ Rosenberg, Bob El-1- strom, and Jennings Knoebel, while Coach Bill Jeffrey will only lose three of his twelve soccer lettermen.

We didn’t do badly at all this spring and I am immensely gratified with the results. Losing only to Army and Navy, each after long bus trips, isn’t anything for any lacrosse team to be ashamed of. The records show that this has; been the most successful- season Penn State has enjoyed in lacrosse for at least five years and it is a bit hard to say just what caused the uplift. Much of the success can ho credited directly to the clever tactics of Cap tain George Koth. His ability to use the pivot has been a sight worthwhile seeing on any la crosse field and numerous times this year he has slipped past two and three defensive players to gain a scoring position. His ability as a leader and a player who takes pun ishment and hard work the same .as any member of the squad has been a continued source of inspiration. We’re counting on him for a lot next year.- The work of Gerber in developing into a very smooth-working goalie during his sophomore year is most encouraging. He is one of the fast est men on the squad and because of his speed we built certain offensive plays to be used after *Gerb’ had cleared the goal. With two years of varsity competition ahead of him, things look mighty good for ‘Gcrb.’ The remarkable development of Jack Fletcher into an attack, or of fensive, player shows what a man can do if he is really determined to learn to play a game; Never having had a stick in his hands before the opening of the spring season, Jack soon riecame adept in the art of hand ling the ‘crosse’. Much of his suc cess may be the result of his out standing ability in soccer and bas basketbalk He is tall, heavy, and fast,’ and this is the type of player -that "was —needed -• to - bolster •• the—at tack since ,in the - past most of our attack men have been small.

Page Three irosse Coach There is no doubt that football helps lacrosse players and -that la crosse is a valuable sport for font ball players to take up out of sea son. This is exemplified by some of the outstanding players on such teams as Navy, Army, Maryland, and Syracuse. Blocking and the correct use of body contact, as well as weight, are essentials for defensive players. ‘lg gy’ Weber had all of these qualities. At cover point ‘lggy’ was the back bone of the defense this year. More football players should take up la crosse in the spring for practice in running, dodging, pivoting, and body blocking all go to make a better foot ball player. Eddie Rumbaugh and ‘Tony’ Robe son, each with a couple of years of varsity playing to. go, should develop into n couple of' very clever attack men. At the start of the season they lacked the polish which comes only from varsity experience but both of them should be tip-top next spring. Barnes, Carl Hasek, ‘Woody’ Douthett, and ‘Serge’ Pechinsky will be coming into more varsity compe tition next year and if they continue their good work, will make things hot for any opposition, they encoun ter. Jim Reed and White are a cou ple more men who might be put in that division also. The results of the interclass games show that this year’s freshmen are going, to have a lot of men in there battling for varsity positions next spring. As a whole the. freshmen have a lot to learn but, if they de velop in fall and spring practice next year as rapidly as they have this spring, they’re sure going to offer a lot of competition for varsity berths.
