By FRANK TITLOW Eddie O'Brien, the Syracuse Uni ,iersity flyer, leads a strong. Orange track team here tomorrow for the an nual dual meet with Penn State. The freshman team will - meet Corne:l. Both meets will be held on New Bea ter field, beginning at 2:30. Since he won three races—the 100, 220, and 440=against State last year, Eddie ha's been stepping high on the track on both sides of the Atlantic, both indoors and out. After losing a 47.3 quarter to LuValle, Southern California, in his only defeat' last spring, O'Brien came back to whip the Westerner in, the heptagonal games at Princeton in the same fast time. Best Bet for Olyinpies Last summer the lean, black-haired speed merchant Was a sight for Eu ropean eyes as he strutted with one of the American track delegations which toured the continent. He is by far. America's best bet for the 400 meters ?t the Olympics. His official titles are A. A. U. 400 meters champion outdoors, A. A. U. 000 meters champion indoors, and IC 4A'outdoor champion at the same diO lance. He bits 0.7 for the hundred, about 21 for the 220, and gets .in the low 47's when he runs the quarter. s , Trente One-Man Team Arkie Trente, the one-man track team,. isn't very far behind the ace, (Continued on Page Four) ages spectators and accounts for the lack of interest shown in tennis as a varsity sport.

Third, Fisher to Outfield for Colgate Tilt; Simoncelli Will Pitch Today Penn State's baseball and lacrosse teams left yesterday for upper New York State to meet teams from Colgate and Syracuse over the week-end. Colgate will provide the opposition today and Syracuse tomorrow in both sports. Coach Joe Bedenk, in leading his nine into two of the toughest games of the season, may make a radical change in the line-up. Today's game may see Captain Pero Miller holding down the third base post, with Carl Fisher being shifted to the outfield. The reason for the possible change would be to increase the batting power without perceptibly weakening the fielding de fense. Miller played short stop two years ago when Red, O'Hora was out for a few games with an injury. t The mound choice for the Colgate encounter will be the lone southpaw on the squad, Ben Simohcelli. Against Syracuse tomorrow, Frank Smith will attempt to preserve the fine record he has established in the five games tn which he has appeared this year: The Red Raiders from Hamilton have won six of their eight games this season. Syracuse has been even more impressive, having taken seven games in eight starts. The records of the two teams indicate a hard task for the Lion nine on their third long road jaunt of the season. One IA the Colgate defeats came at the hands of Syracuse, in a loose ly played game. The score was 17 to G. Colgate's chief hope against the Liens will be 'Bob "Lefty" Wright, pitcher. who has won three games against no defeats. St. Lawrence, the ,small college'that produced Hal Schumacher, star pitch er of the New York Giants, was the only team that beat Syracuse this year. In this game, Howie Anderson, leading batter of the team, suffered a broken leg. , Batter.

Stickmen making the trip include the probable starting . line-up of Robeson, Rumbaugh, HiMotf,. Hasek, Conley, Tinfoil, Heft, Eisemnan, Ger ber and Proksa. Substitutes are Mc- Ewen, Simpson, Cohn,.Jacober, Eddy, 111acario, Foster, Hontz, Snook, and Lotz. Colgate Inexperienied Colgate has an inexperienced outfit which has slowly improved into a fair team. They were defeated by Dait mouth, 9-to-2; , Hobart, 11-to-2; and Springfield, 9-to-2. Clair Grastorf and, Berry Vernon are the defense stars, while Krogh does d' fine job in the keel. • • Saturday's encounter with Syra cuse; Puts Thiel' against his alint ma ter. In addition, State's defense must stop his brother, high scorer for the Orange. The team is coached by Roy Simmons, head boxing coach and assistant football mentor. Jontos, All-Eastern guard and co-captain of the football team, captains the outfit and plays a stellar defense position. Thiel's brothci•' is the third of the family to wear the orange 'in lacrosse battles. Orange Attack Good Syracuse won their opener against the Alumni, 7-to-2, then came the Army game and disaster, 18-to-1. State meets Army on May'23 at West Point and a comparison between Sat urday's game and that of the Point ers can be made. The next week Syr acuse wenp.down to Annapolis, where they played headup boll;. but lost, 8- to-6. They defeated Union, 16-to-7, and won the central New York cham pionship in setting Hobart hack for their first loss, 16-to-11. State must depend on close defen sive play to stop Syracuse's fine at tack. Kilfoil has a broken blood ves sel in'his leg, but it is expected that he will start, although lie may not play long. Poster, Hontz, or Snook will probably alternate in his second defense' position. , The,team went through long drills during the week to condition them selves for the two-game, series. 'The previous part of the season saw ser vice against mediocre teams, but now the squad will meet Colgate, Syra cuse, Army, and Maryland in rapid order. Tennis Team Meets Navy, Bullets Away Nittany Lions Favored Over Gettysburg; • Navy Strong. By STEVE CAMPBELL The Nitteny Lion tennis team will trY to stretch their winning streak to four straight victories this week end when they meet the Gettysburg Bullets at Gettysburg and Navy at Annapolis, :lid. A team of seven men left State Col lege early this morning. They expect to arrive at Gettysburg at noon and after resting a few hours will en gage Gettysburg at 2 o'clock. The team plans to leave Gettysburg im mediately after the match and will travel to Annapolis, where they will stay overnight. . Gettysburg is not expected to offer too much of a threat to the Lions, de spite a few impressive victories. Last week, the Bullets defeated both Drex el and a strong Western Maryland team, but dropped a 5-4 contest to Haverford. . Navy Match a Toss-up Berkowitz, of Gettysburg, who has been undefeated in the last three con tests, should offer Imre opposition to Paul Massey than any of his past op ponents. Massey probably has too teach experinece and technique, how ever, and should win his match. Penn State has a better chance of defeating Navy than any time in the past coon's age or so. Navy has a considerably weaker team this year and has dropped a couple of contests, one by an overwhelming score. The Gobs are not to be underestimated, however, for they should play better tennis than any team met so far this year. Even though Navy is as rela tively weak as they are reported to be, the match is still something of a toss-up. Line-up Shifted The line-up will remain the same in only one respect: Massey will con tinue to play in No. 1 singles posi tion. Campman, playing in third po-. sition last week, will probably be boosted into No. 2 place, with Capt. Jimmy Smith falling back into third the line-up remains indefinite. Four men, Miller, .?4t,.
