Lion Basketball Team Will Tace Temple Quintet Nittany Passers Lose sth League Game To Georgetown. By DICK LEWIS Penn State enters on the second round of Intercollegiate basketball conference competition against Tem ple in Recreation hall tonight at 7:30 o'clock. Saturday night the 'Nittany pass ers dropped their. fifth league game by a 51-to-44 score to a Ilashy George town aggregation which presented the 'fastest exhibition of basketball seen on The local floor this year. In their second game with Temple, the Lions take another crack at the powerful Owl team which defeated them 39-to-33 last week in Philadel phia. To Sec Stellar Oopositiori Local basketball fans will have an opportunity tomorrow night to wit ness a Temple team in action, which, !judging from its list of stellar play ers, presents one of the most scintil lating of League teams as well as one of the most powerful. In Coach Spike Leslie's opinion the OWI combination is composed of the test individual tossers in' the league., "When Temple is right I think they're the best team in the conference," he says. - 1- The Hoya crowd' .which outplayed the locals Saturday. night. fell twice .before Temple, victors over Nest ginia. Among the individual talent to see action tomorrow' night is 6-feet, 5 Meyer Bloom, one - of the outstand ing centers in the conference when he's on, Leslie says. Bloom heads the roster for high individual scoring ,in the conference. Another stellar light is Don Shields at forward who, in Leslie's opinion, is one of the smart est passers in the conference. • Ernest Messikorner, captain and forward, is a dead shot; Casper at guard is a hard defense man to get past. Awl Louis Dubin, at guard or forward, is the versatile and occurs ate gent who sent twenty points fly ing through the hoop against the Li ens last week. Georgetown Sparked The gentlemen from 'Washington plugged eight points into the basket Saturday night before the Lions man aged to ring up a single tally on Kor nick's successful free throw. In:the niiddle - orthellist. halt' the illneand White tied the score 11-to-11, 'but the Hoyas pulled ahead, leading the State men eight Points in arrears at the end of the first half, with the score • In the second half the Lions played 'hard ball and succeeded in outscor ing the invaders by a single point. Again in mid-half the Nittanymen tied the score at 31-to-21. But the Morgantowners have sparked ahead with State followink doggedly. In the last two minutes of the gameKornick pocketed two field goals and McWil liams one while Bassin, Hoya for ward, clipped the basket as the gun sounded.

Nittany LiOn Natators Defeated by Panthers Although Penn State's newly form ed swimming team was able to score only one individual 'victory—that of Johnny Walker in the 100-yard free style event—they gave Pitt's crack mermen plenty of competition in los ing here Saturday by a 39-to-28 score. Coming as the Anal event on the program the 100 was the closest race of the meet. Walker ices inches ahead of his teammate, Jerry Weinstein, no greater margin. separated the. latter, from Harry Geyer, of Pitt. The time I was 1' minute flat. Dick Geiger, captain of the Lion mermen, lost his first dual meet when Pitt's captain Russ Lindberg defeat ed him in 1:50. Jim Cummings took third for State. In the 50-yard free style State also scored second and third with Martin Ilart and John Ack; erman finishing behind Geyer, of Pitt. With the possible exception of . the 1100 the most' exciting event. of the day was the 200-yard breast stroke. Anderson of Pitt got off to a good lead on the first lap by use of his "Butterfly" stroke, but Gil BurRIO: moved up on him as the Pitt man re turned to the orthodox stroke, and be fore the final lap had a slight lead. Anderson again used the "butterfly" for the last 20 yards and managed to finish slightly ahead of the Lion swimmer.

THE PENN STATE COLLEGIAN Lehigh Grapplers Win 1.7-9 As Wolfson, Light, Shaffer Register Only. Lion Scores Crippled State Squad Wages Courageous Fight Against Intercollegiate Champions; `Best Matches in Years.' By TOWNSEND SWALM Terminating a winning streak of eleven straight matches, Lehigh Uni versity's championship wrestling team defeated a crippled but game Penn State squad by a score of 17-to-9, in Bethlehem Saturday. The- Lions fought desperately in every weight class and it was the general opinion of officials, newspapermen and the crowd after the game that it was the best set of matches seen there in years. Three bouts were won by the Lions, Wolfson, Light, and Shaffer de ! fcating their opponents by time advantages. Krupa allowed the only fall of the day, - while Brooks, Zazzi, Calvin and O'Dowd lost by time advantage decisions. Aldo Zazzi wrestled in the 145-pound spot because a last minute injury in the form of a pulled ribs rib forced Sully Waite to remain on the side The tenor of the entire meet was !fast and furious with both teams in perfect ccndition and exerting every ounce of effort. There was no stalling on either side and the intensity of ;the struggle was evidenced by the !hysterical excitement and clamor of the crewd. The Engineers realize that j Saturday's contest was no picnic and lit is with no little trepidation that Lehigh looks forward to meeting the Lions in the Intercollegiates. Calvin Put Up Strong Fight Toughest fight of the day was the Calvin-Crockett sotto. Rivaling pro fessional matches in roughness and vigor this one had the crowd scream ing with excitement. From the start ing command it was give anti take with both men exerting every ounce of energy and all the tactics at his command until, when the match end ed, both were absolutely exhausted and staggered off the mat. Most of the 4:20 minute. time advantaged gained by Crockett resulted from legi t dives which threw Jack Calvin to the mat and enabled his opponent to get behind Jack light lived up to his reputa tion and title to the fullest extent gaining a time' advantage of 5:18 minuucs over Ferry, highly touted Le high sophomore. - Jack had, no diffi lenity maintaining the upper band at all times and was only prevented from securing a fall by clever defensive work an the part of, Ferry.

However, several wrestlers showed considerable form and prom ise interesting bouts in the Inter rounds. Bit kelball The knights of the wooden way, basketeers, dribblers, cagemen, quin tet, courtmen, hoopsters, or in plan words, the intramural basketball teams, have been going at it hot and heavy with many ` close games and fallen arches. Outstanding wee the Alphi Phi Delt—Sigma Phi Epsilon , fray in which at the-end of the fourth' quar ter the score stood 17-to-17: In the extra period the Alpha Phi Delts scored three points and the S.

Schmidt scored eight points and in general starred for Kiski. Harrison and Chalmers at for wards, Sinkosky at center, and Par ker and S. Davies at guards started for State. Kiski's starting lineup con sisted of forwards E. Davies and Herman, center Hartman, and guards Schmidt and Donchess. to poor example for 113-pounder Sam my Wolfson never looked better than he did against Clow. It was a good bout but Sammy had everything under control at all times and ended up with 7:4l minutes advantage to his credit. The Krupa-Bishop fracas at 105 was another scorcher. Joe wrestled Bishop on an even basis up until he was thrown in the last minute and a half of the second period. Bishop used a simple far-wrist and near-half-nel son in securing the fall, and the time was 8:35 minutes. Brooks Loses to Ashman The 120-pound Itay Brooks bout !was a good scrap throughout and al though losing out by a 9:15 minute I time advantage, Ray gave his op ponent plenty of trouble. Gonzales, ' Lehigh 115-pound representative, seemed too strong for the slighter Aldo Zazzi who nevertheless put up a good battle. Gonzales had the up per hand most of the time and piled up 5:41 minutes of advantage. Lehigh's captain and Eastern In tercollegiate . champ in the heavy weight division, Howell Scobey, found he had no pushover in Joe O'Dowd and was hard pressed to eke out a bare 2:50 minute time advantage. o'- Dowd took advantage of all mis takes made by the champ getting be hind on ninny occasions, and at no time was he in, danger of being thrown. Everything considered the Lion per formance Saturday should cause no sadness on this campus. No apolo gies can be made and none are need ed.
