By JERRY WEINSTEIN Basehits, errors, strikeouts, argu ments—and when it was all over, Penn State's baseball team had sound ly trounced Penn 16 to G. • Saturday's victory over Penn was significant for many reasons. First, it broke' the Nittany Lion losing streak at three games. - Second, it marked the fourth triumph since 1894 in Lion-Quaker rivalry. Third, it was a clean-cut victory over 'a class A college team. And fourth, it marked the point where Captain Pero Miller pulled out of his bitting slump and started to hit once again. Lo;le:To West Chester The Penn win was, slightly shad owed by the' Lions' performance in Priday's encounter with West Ches ter. John.Boho, who went the route on the mound against the Teachers, VMS off to a bad start as four runs were chalked up on -two triples, a single, and a base on balls. Boho set tled down then, and shut 'out the Teachers with two hits until the sev enth inning. Meanwhile, Penn State collected five,hits and one run in seven innings. Singles by Red O'Hora and Boho ac counted for the score. Otherwise, West Chester's southpaw, Barnes, had little trouble in keeping the Lions away from scoring. West Chester Ticked up two more runs in the sev enth, and Penn State scored two in the' eighth on singles by Waters, Boho, and Bielicki. The score at that point was C to 3 and it looked as if the Lions still had a chance for vie- I tory. West Chester's batting attack that contributed to their undefeated rec ord flared again in the eighth and the game was over. Two singles, a dou ble, and a triple gave the 'winners three more runs and a :Ito 3 decision. Penn Proves To Be Easy With Pitank Smith again putting on , a near-perfect pitching perform ance, with every man hitting the ball hardi- Penn—State -had-little -trouble with the Quakers. The fact that eight errors were chalked.up against Penn takes no ,credit away from the victory. As a matter of fact, at least four of the errors were the result of scorers' judgment—decisions on hard hit balls and questionable plays. Scoring began - early. In the second frame, Vonarx 'tripled after O'Hora walked, and came in on an error for two runs. Four markers came in the third. Wear singled to score ➢lie holf, who had also singled. Bielicki walked, Kornick sacrificed,' and o'- Horn singled to center to score two. Penn changed pitchers, and Pero Miller came through with a single and the fourth run.' In the fourth, Miller hit a long homer into the cen ter field stands with Kornick on base to count another pair. The score was 8 to 0 -at this point. Argument Delays Caine The sixth inning was halted by a terrific argument, caused by the call ing; of balls and strikes. by the umpire. Before;' the' frame ended, - ; Penn, had three'rfini on no' hit's, two 'errors and two passes. It was the general opin ion' that Smith's pitches were perfect strikes, instead of balls. Penn bunched two of their four hits in the seventh to get two runs. After 01lora had scored a run single-hand 'ed on a single, an error and a wild pitch, Penn picked up. another in the eighth, again on no hits. Seven runs, featured by four walks, four errors that robbed the Lions of hits, and CP- Hora's triple definitely ended the game.

By CHUCK WHEELER Sweeping their two matches against Cornell and Pitt at Ithaca Satur day, the Lion golf team closed their 19:16 campaign impressively and creat ed a three-way tie for second place in the Southern division of the Eastern Intercollegiate Golf association. The scores were 6-to-3 and 74*-2, respect ively. • Playing their best golf of the year, the Lions out-did their coach's pre meet predictions by exactly 100 per cent. Rutherford had predicted a split. Tieing Cornell and Georgetown for second place in the conference does not send the team to Connecticut this week-end for the play-offs, but it does in dicate that a strong team is ready , for next year.

Bucknell Match Bernie Burkett. rapidly developing into another Chick Beyer or Feed Brand, again took the spotlight Satur day when he posted medal scores for both meets. He was even par up to the 13th hole in the morning against Cor nell's Morton, where the match ter minated, 7 and 5. In the afternoon against Bachman of Pitt he shot a 72, 2 over par, to win 3 and 2. In the first foursome against Cor nell, Jay Albere lost to Wilcox, 3 and 2, and Johnny Bennett beat Cam eron, 3_ and 2. The best ball was halved. Joe Stevenson lost to Bill Smith in the second foursome ' 2 and 1, but Coletti defeated Roundley, 4 and 3, to also grab the best ball; 1 up. The combination of Siegler and Burkett kept its record unblemished by taking Rodgers and Morton. Both' of Siegler's matches ended on the 18th green, with Bob coming through both times, Pill Resists in Vain The 7-to-2 store against. Pitt was I not indicative of the real closeness of the meet. But the Panthers were no match far the hot folgers that State had on the Ithaca Country Club that afternoon. Despite the slow, rough greens, low scores , were in vogue. Albere started the Panthers reel ing when he bore his way to a G and 5 win over Symonds. Johnny Bennett lost to Pitt's great Souchak, more generally known as the sth man in enemy backfields, but "the best hall was salvaged, 1 up. Coletti dropped to Musico, 2 and 1. From then on, it was all State. Ste venion tails Wasco, 1 up, Siegler best ed Meese on the 18th, 1 up, and Burk ett ate dessert over Bachman, 3 and 2. Friday the Cornelis took the Pitts, 5-to-4. The Panthers fared none too well for the season, dropping all five matches. Princeton won the section with 5 victories and 0 defeats, 'and State, Georgetown, and Cornell split second place with 3 wins against 2 losses. Penn won 1 and lost 4, while Pitt ended with no victories at all. The match between Joe Stevenson and Bill Smith of Cornell was a great affair. Both are Greensburg boys, having played or caddied for one an other for a good number of years. Both coaches jockied their line-ups to pit them against each other. They pro ceeded to boondoggle their way around 18 holes of razzing and rid ing. Stevenson had Smith 4 down on the 9th 'and then won the 10th to as sume a 5-hole lead. Then Mr. Smith got Mr. Stevenson's goat. Joe dropped the next 0 holes, and came into. the clubhouse a ;puck ;chastened Young Man.

ThE PENN STATE COLLEGIAN Netters Capture Every Match To Overwhelm Bisons fvo; Dickinson Cancels. By STEVE CAMPBELL The Lion net team made a clean sweep of the matcheS on the new var sity courts Saturday afternoon, de feating the Bisons of Bucknell 9 to . O. Even the overwhelming score is no indication of State's superiority over Bueknell. Few of the matches went More than two sets' and few sets went into extra games. In only two match es, the sixth singles and the second doubles, was State extended to three sets. Even. taking into 'Consideration the fact that Bucknell was weak and in effective in both doubles and singles, the match was fairly indicative of State's development since losing the initial match 'to Cornell. The singles players are now in a state known as mid-season form, but it is in the dou bles that the mostparked advance ment is ken. Massey Wins Again In the first singles, Massey re mained undefeated,. downing the Bucknell captain, Ilimham, 6-3, 6-4. Massey continued hii faultless brand of tennis which has characterized his play all season. Capt. Jimmy Smith, after being pressed to win his first set, - 7-5, cop ped the second,.6-o..c.The score shows clearly the trend of • the match. Smith's play was: a little shabby at first, but grew prOgressively strong as he advanced in the second set. Near the close of the second set he showed flashes of positive brilliance. gammen Wins Ist Match Dick Cowman, dogged all year by bad luck, won his first match of the season over McDonough of the Bisons by a score of 6-0, 6-3. In the fourth and fifth singles,'Patt defeated Bow ler, 6-4, 6-4, and Perry downed Dea con, G-4, 6-L Neither Lion was ever in trouble with his Bison opponent and there was almost never any doubt about the result of either match. Johnson won his third straight vic tory in the sixth singles over Campo, 6-3, 7-9, 6-4. He was the. only sing les player who required an extra set to win. Johnson was - definitely off color and the match in general was slOPpy and uninteresting to. watch. Beth' men erred frequently, driving the ball into the net,, double faulting, aneovershooting. ; Massey and Perry had little diffi culty downing Durham and Bowler, 6-4, 6-3, in the first doubles, Neefe and McDonough carried Smith and Campman - into three 'sets before fall ing, 3-6, 6-3, 6-1. The Lion pair played listlessly in the first set, but even when losing seemed to be cap able of rising to the occasion when the time came. The score bears out the statement. Miller and Fred Smith appearing for the first time 'in the lineup in place of Putt and Johnson, defeated Campo and Deacon, 6-2, 6-3. The match with Dickinson origin ally scheduled for Friday afternoon, was definitely cancelled. The Red Devils sent word late Thursday that they were unable to meet State be cause-four of their men were ill, ac cording to Zee Levy, manager. Ken Loeffler, Yale Court Coach, To Direct Summer Course Here Kenneth D. Loeffler, head basket ball coach at Yale University, will conduct a course in basketball during the summer session here as part of a series of courses in athletic coach ing. In addition. to coaching the bas ketball team,• Loeffler, who graduat ed here in 1924, is head coach of the Eli 150-pound football squad and will be mentor of freshman lacrosse next year. After starring in basketball here, Loeffler went to Pittsburgh where he played professional for five years. He also coached the court team, and lat er became an official in the West Penn association. For seven years, Loeffler conelletl ! the second period Robeson took Rum- Lion ' s Ten Defeats • Ibaugh's-P" for score. Robeson Cornell Indians 12-6 In Saturday's Fray Veterans Rumbaugh, Robeson Tally 4 Goals Apiece. _ By FRANCIS SZYNICZAK _ The Penn State lacrosse 'team reg istered its third straight victory in overpowering Cornell's ten, 12-to-0, on New Beaver Field before 1500 Mothers' Day visitors, Saturday. Vet erans Robeson and Rumbaugh led the Lions' scoring with four goals each, while llimoff, Hasek, Conley, and Lotz scored singles. Both team made the game interest ing for spectators by an unusual amount of roughness, body blocking and "slashing." State bad 21 min utes in the penalty box while Cornell received 24. Most of the fouls were called because of unnecessary clip ping and using .the crosses or sticks in a belligerent manner. Cornell Leads in 3rd Period State led the scoring in the first, second-and fourth quarters, while the Big Red had a one-goal advantage in the third period. With two State men out on penalties of two minutes each Cornell took advantage of their extra men to score three times to the Lions' two goals in the third. Close shooting was pow• with the Blue and White missing 15 tries. Cor nell's goalie stopped 10 State drives. Captain Gerber had the highest num ber of goals scored on him so far this season when six tough ones zipped past past him into the net. He stopped 15 attempts and ran the ball to the center of the field many times to give the nttackmen time to get into position. Robeson Scores Twice Robeson scored the first goal six minutes after the quarter began on a pass from Hoft. Chewning scored a minute later for the visitors. Rum baugh scored the finyl tally during the first stanza when he scooped up a ground ball to score from the left side. Fifty seconds niter the face-off in Freshman Team Beats Kiski, 12-4 Harrison, Barantovich Slam Out Circuit Clouts To Begin Scoring for Cubs. By WOODY BIERLY Coach Sutherland's hopes for a more successful season this year were practically shattered when the Lion freshmen won their second victory by handing the Kiski batsmen a 12-to-4 lacing on New Beaver field Saturday afternoon. It was the third succes sive defeat for the prep school out of a total of eight games. Joe Didinger, Nittany hurler for the first seven innings, struck out nine of the visiting batsmen, while Rill Neal, follower of Didinger to the mound, struck out two. Radnor, whom Coach Sutherland acclaims as Kiski's "best all around ball player," credited himself with eight strike outs, as well as three singles. 2 Plebes Hit Homers A brace of circuit clouts by Harry Harrison and Alex Barantovich scor ed four of the plebes' five runs in the first round, and gave the Cubs a lead that ICiski never was able to over come. Catcher Joe Gillespie, who led the batting invasion in the Dickinson game with a triple and a home run, had a two-base hit. The Lions' batting attack in gen eral, which hasn't been anything ye mutely akin to potent this season, re vealed remarkable improvement in the encounter Saturday, when eleven hits were pounded out. Kiski piled up eight singles. The game brought out some weak points of both teams, mostly in the form of overthrows. Sweltering heat, lack of cooperation, or whatever it may have been, there was no alibi for the eight errors of the Kiski team, nor the five by the Nittany tossers. the Geneva basketball teams. During this period, Geneva's teams compared with the best court squads in the East. With the 1935-26 team at Yale, Loeffler brought his squad from fifth 'place to third in the Eastern Inter collegiate league, defeating every team in the league with the exception of Columbia, the champions. Along with Loeffler's basketball course, which will run from July 20 to August 7,lhree Penn Sfate conch es will conduct athletic coaching courses. Bab Higgins will hove charge of. football from June 30 to July 17, Chick Werner will conduct the track and field course from June .30 to July 17, and Bill Jeffrey will take care of soccer from July 20 to August 7. • scored six minutes later with Conley assisting.
