Thdraday, February 4, 1937 INTRAMURA By CHARLES M. WHEELER, JR. As major Nittany Lion teams emerge from their scholastic shell seemingly unscathed to pour alkaline down the acid throats of their rivals, the unsung heroes of Rec Hall pre pare to go to' it again hammer and tongs with an •intramural program concentrated on four fronts. fflaiketball and volleyball continue the Second round eliminations where they left off for• exam week. Meanwhile, contests in the A divi sion of the handball tourney threaten to' start any week. Whenever Jerry Weinstein, winner tivice, and Red Ochsner, runner-up twice, can get to gether, this phase of the contest will probably be, run. It is not seen from here how • any other aspirants can come close. Eliminations in the class B. struggles continues, however, with alarming rapidity. Several matches have been played. By the way, .Bernie Klipstein, co holder with Weinstein of the College doubles title for handball, returned to; school • this 'week to receive the medal • at a • presentation Ceremony from•his.co-titalist.

Meanwhile, participants mite still being urged to present themselves to the Dispensary for permission to play. Permits are required for each individual sport, thereby avoiding any possibility of simplifying the task. • If actual physical examinations were .given when the boys traipse up time after time to become eligible for handball, volleyball, and basketball, there might be some point to requir ing separate cards. But this is no part of the procedure. The idea is to collect as many individual hastily written Card excuses as possible. All of which offers a new field for awarding a new intramural trophy. Why not give a cup to the individual with the most physical exam cards?

GAGERS TO ME Coach Lawther Remains Undecided As to Line-up; Lions 2nd in Conference Nittany Floormen Lose to Panthers in Peculiar 'Game at Pitt; Defeat Carnegie Tech In Exciting Contest Here By WOODROW W. BIERLY The Lion basketeers will be out for their twenty-fifth victory over Buck nell when they meet the Bisons in Recreation Hall at 7 o'clock on Saturday night in the Nittany courtmen's fourth non-Conference tilt for the season. It will be the thirty-first game of a series that started in 1896 when Bucknell won the first of its she victories With a 21-4 score: Thr line-up for the game remains indefinite. It is probable that Co-cap tain Frankie Smith may be among the starting live. Others in line for first place berths are Sol Miehoff, Jack Reichenhach, Max Corbin, Joe Proksa, Charley Prosser, and Jay McWilliams. Smith may move to forward and Proksr to guard. McWilliams, Passer or Corbin will jump at center Prosser was unable to attend prac- flee during the early part of the Werner Selects week. Millrose Entries Played Only Four Games The Bucknell quintet has played Only four flames to date, winning two and losing two. They defeated the Lafayette Leopards. d3-to 27, and Lh Crusaders from Susquehanna, 37-to -29, while they bowed to, Milton Y. M. O. A. and the Gettysburg five. The Bisons lost only three regular players from last year's squad, one of them being Harold Sager, star for ward who failed to return to school last semester. Pacing the Buckneil five 'is Bill Foltz, six-foot two for ward, who led the scoring for his team in the game here last season. Others who will probably see action are Ray Monahan, forward, John Fi ler and J 0.2 Deegan, guards, with Bob Summers, another six-foot two man, center. Lose to Pitt The Lions met their first defeat is Conference competition in the Pitt Stadium, the scare, 36-to-SS. The con test was a peculiar one, with nothing outstanding taking place. The State team didn't make a very impressive appearance nor did they play poorly. Jezko, Pitt forward, led the scoring with twelve points, while Sol iillieholf trailed him with one less.. The score at the half was tied, 16-all. The Pitt five stepped into the lead but the Li ons kept the count fairly close until the score reached 24-to-21 when the State team faded from the picture: I=Ell The Lions climbed into. second ?lace in the Conference standing by defeating a fighting Carnegie Tech mintet, 35-to-30 in Recreation Hall 'ast Monday night. More than 5000 saw the content in which Charley Prosser led the scoring with thirteen points,. while Sol Micholi tied with Andy Kritscher, Tech forward, to place second with a total of ten. Offsetting the Lions' non-too-im pressive defensive work was the I 'fire" they showed, especially Smith I and Prosser, who entered the game as substitutes. Neither of the two has started a game yet this season. The Tartans ran up an 11-to-3 lead during the first ten minutes of play. Prosser scored the first field goal for the Lions and continued to score on long overhead shots until the score was tied at 11-all. A 15-to-15 dead lock followed later, after which the State team gained a 32-to-21 margin over their opponents. Tech made a stubborn attempt to regain her lead, but the final whistle blew with the Lions holding a live-point edge. Tim Penn State team will again play the Tartans when they meet them at Pittsburgh on February 25. The game had originally been sched uled to be played here, on Monday night. Conference Standing W. L.

Hazzard Added To Veteran Downey; Sprint Man May Go By CHARLES M. WHEELER. JR. When track coach Chick Werner issued a call for sprint men recently he had no intention of taking any to the Millrose Games in New York an Saturday night, but two football half backs, Bill Denise and John Patrick, have shown so much promise that one may be taken with the varsity two mile relay aggregation. NoweVer, the relay team remained the chief object of his attention in the final preparations for the invi tation meet. Chief basis for the in vitation was State's victory in the' 1.C.-4A. two mile relay last winter.' Other schools to run this race will be Manhattan, winner of last year's Millrose race; Boston' College, winner of the Boston A.A. title; and Ohio State, victor for the same event at the Penn Relays. !' Makes Selections Werner's s.electiotti th for the four ' men event include butiOne member of last year's championship team, How ard Downey. The others will be Adrian Markowitz, another senior, and Burt Aikmari - and Herb Hazzard, sophomores. Downey and Aikman led the recent time trials -for positions with tied times of 59.2 - for the half-mile Stretch. Hazard was third in 59.4 seconds, and Markowitz was fourth in two minutes 5-10 seconds. The' aggregate time, Werner pointed out,• was faster than the time that won the 1.C.-4A. last winter. The Lions, however, will be up against extreme ly tough competition, 'and the conch was none too optimistic as to the possible outcome. Downey, Aikman, and Hazard were all members of the cross-country team this fall, and although Downey is the only experienced man, Marko witz has been doing a good bit of running during the past three years. Hazard is the most improved runner of the quartet. Meanwhile, Werner is planning an All-College meet next week with pre liminaries getting under way next Wednesday. Anyone may enter this meet by placing their names with the managers in the locker room. There will be five places in each event, with ribbons going to those who make them. This competition will be followed by a handicap meet later on the out door track.

It is known that nine members of the varsity squad will make the trip tomorrow. All those who' competed in the recent varsity-freshman meet will make the trip.
