Although the squad is in good physidal condition, Coach 'Thick" Werner pessimistic about, their chances. "The boys are an improvement over Mast year's Squad," he said, "but the competition is going to be too tough." The four-mile - relay team probably has the best chance of coming through. Led by Captain George Harvey, this quartet includes .7oe Alekander, Howard Downey,tipd.Dwiern.ey Rook, captain electOf crosi - conntry. - Twelve oTher teams have entered this event. State received fifth place ilia the draw for positions.

This event is set for Friday with the local team run ning in twenty-second position. To Run' In Medley With the exception 'of Luttringer, who will lie replaced by George Ro senberger, the half-mile relay team will be the same as the quarter. This event is Saturday. State has eighth position. Most of these runners have been clocked in a ten flat hundrd and they, along with' about eight others, have been working out here over the taster vacation. The other Lion entry in the relays will' be in the distance medley. In this event Downey will run a quar ter-mile, Bill Stiteler. a half, Book a three-quarters, and Captain Harvey will finish with a mile.

I ' Although he hoped _earlier' in the season to enter' n freshman !zinc relay team, Werner has since decided not to do so. The material available, he feels, does not warrant it, although several freshmen will be taken along, as will Phil Barnes, broad . jumper, who is out with a sprained ankle. Floyd Saxer, manager, and several assistants are also . making the trip. The first - freshman meet is at Cor nell on Nay 4 and there is still a lack of good material. "It is not too late for fieshnian track candidates to report," Werner said, "and I feel that there are still some good men who have not come out."

THE PENN STATE COLLEGIAN Lion Nine To Me Pitchei Frank Smith Stars In 4-0 Win Over Navy; Two Games Lost by Nittanymen Errors with Men on Bases Lose Two Contests Of Southern Trip for Penn State. By BILL McDOWELL Just when it seemed as though baseball was about to be discontinued at Penn State in favor "of ice hockey, the weather man came along waving a reprieve for the condemned and the boys had three perfect days for their opening game of the season, 4-to-0 victory over Navy, and losses' of 15-to-3 to Georgetown and 6-to-3 to Washington College on their southern trip last week. The game against Juniata College here tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock will be the first game of the season on the local diamond. The three games played away showed several things about the team L Frank Smith, sophomore right hander, can pitch. • 2. No one else on the squad can. 3. He can hit. 4.• So can joe Bielicki, Cocky Rob bins, • Red O'Hora,. Pero Miller, and Al .ochrock, 5. The weakest position as far as hitting is concerned is left field. Anchors Aweigh The Navy game at jAnnapolis was an example of what the Lions can do when they play heady ,baseball.. Take the performance of Frank Smith in the fifth inning as an example of• cool-headed pitching and the func tioning of the .team•as a machine. This inning came after Smith had, hit his hOrne run and three-bagger., He walked Gadrow, hard-hitting Middle third baseman, to open the in ning: Spain, the catcher, was knock ed cold by' a - ball on the .side of the' head and Robertshaw took his base . for him forcing Gadrow to second. Unnerved by this occurence, Smith walked Sexton, `Navy pitcher. As, luck would have it, Knapper, Navy: lead-off man and •short-stop, was up, next. He hit an infield-grounder whirls, Smith caught; threw home to Ochroch to retire Gadrow canting yin fibm , third and Oehroch hurled to Bill Mc-• Kechnie on first . to.retire Knapper. ; After all this Smith struck out, Sel lars. The Middies fouled the .first; ball but the second two were so:fast: he swung too late. on,hoth. And a , most embarrassingserge 'of 'runs' was!, thus; aVofded..

Georgetown amassed ' , seven runs in th• third inning 'aided by Ferrara when he hit a home run with the bases loaded. It was after this that Penn State' demonstrated how valuable ex perience ,is, for •they, , went to pieces and had sin errors chalked up again- Ernie Stokes; Wilmer Bachman, and Lloyd Rugh each pitched three innings of the game and each receiv ed a severe shelling in the Um. Miller, Bielicki, and . 07.10ra scored for State. Two of these came in the sixth inning when Joe Bielicki's homer brought in Miller. .Washington.S, State-3 Captain Bill McKechnie Will always remember the Washington College game as the one in which he made his first error in three years of inter collegiate baseball. In the sixth inning Turner, lead off batter of Washington, took his base on balls after Fountain, the pitcher, had flied out to Stocker at third base. Berry got on when he hit a grounder just inside of the first base line which Meßechnie tumbled. This combined with an over throw by Stocker opened the way for Washington to score two runs in that inning arid four more in the eighth by a barrage of hits. Robbins scored twice and Stocker once . for Penn State. Composite Box Score 11. 0. A. E.
