After playing mediocre baseball
for eight innings, the Lion flesh
man baseballers flashed a five-run
batting spree in the ninth to edge
out a superior Mont Alto foiester

Al Maurer opened Lion hostili

.• Not only might the Broßklyn
Dodgers stay in 'the first division
of the National League, but many
other strange things, can happen
between now and the beginning of
next football season This is the
time of year when the only thing
being said about football is that
which-is batted out by hair-brain
,poi is-wi iters, who lack other col
umn matei 'al We are, not to' be
outdone
Here's a thought—take it for
what you may. Did it ever occur
to you that Penn State and Pitt,
along with several hundred other
colleges in the United States, are
very, very lucky? The reason
none of th"m have Cornell to face
across the pigskin next Fall Which
is another way to say_ that Carl
Snavely's boys will Just about be
tops
Befoi e getting off the subject of
Football, we can't overlook the pre
diction 4 made last week by Bill
Kern, es-Carnegie Tech mentor,
now_ guiding the destinies of the
\ West VII girna Mountaineers Kern
says Foi dham will top the football
pile in the East, with Cornell sec
ond Penn State will be fifth best,
he says We won't argue about
where he placed the Lions That's
up to Bob Higgins and his lads to
decide, but we'll still put our wam
pum on tne Big Red over the Rams
any day.-
'ln case there's still any doubt
in anyone's mind as to the ability
lot one Norwood Ewell to cover a
lot of territory in a few seconds,
we'll just remind you that the
dusky dasher has either cracked or
tied a record in every meet he's
appeared in this Spring and hasn't
had any trouble as yet in winning.
On the legs of fleet 'Mr Ewell
and the strong right arm of Cap
tain Nick Vukmanic will ride the
! fortunes of the Lions in the IC4-A
get-together a week from this Sat
urday
It isn't too far off to pre-'
dirt a close match between, the
Lions and Pitt's Panthers for the
team title Much of the Lions' suc
cess will depend on the perform
ances turned, in by Wild Willy
Smith and Frank Maule in the
distance races
, If you're interested in /records.
here's a note on lacrosse When
Bart Buser went scoreless in Sat
urday's debacle at Syracuse. it was
the first times:this season that the
Nittany co captain was held with
out ringing the ball at least once
Put this in your book, too If
either ,Buser or George Ritter
aren't picked for the All-American
ten, bring Your book around and
we'll eat the cover
Penn State's latest All-American
—Bob McCoy—varsity rifler, who
has been chosen to the National
fife Association All-American
live-man team. McCoy also ranks
as the stop gunman in the East.
