Th.e;kid':'dried his left foot'and
reached'for:the othersock.
-He grinned: “Yes, I guess I’m
just'slated to be second best.
Guess I’ll be coming in second as
]ong.;as;l run.”
He pulled on the sock and slid
into his shoe.. “But you know,
you don’t mind running behind
a -guy; like, Barney Ewell. He’s
plenty good.” ‘
The kid talking was Don Dol
bin.'Penn State sprinter extraor
dinary, because he’s been running
behind someone all the time he’s
been competing on the cinder
path;! even though he could be a
neat' dasher in himself. We refer
you to the unofficial, but pretty
certain, 6.3 he did in the 50-yard
scramble at Army over the week
endr~
To be true Barney Ewell,grab
bed first place with a 6.2. Take
nothing • away from the Ebony
Express. But the kid who ran
second did a time whichtook first
place at the New York A.C.' games
in Madison Square Garden over
the weekend! ' ••
; “It isn’t'the first time T’.ve run
•second for a teanuTn high school;
I ran behind Johnny- Neyer, who
was state sprint champ in 1939,”
the kid grinned as; he wiped back
his hair: ’_ : --
We asked Don-what about his
dad. Wasn’t he quite a trackman
one time, too? r :
“You're not kidding. My dad
was captain of the State track
team 1 in 1916 and held the 100-
yard dash record here for a while.
He also anchored a relay team
here that was undefeated from
1914 to 1916. I guess he was
pretty good.”
.We wanted' to know what the
senior.Dolbinwas doing now.
“He’s chiropracting down home
in Pottsville. On the side he
coaches the Crimson Club track
team, a local athletic club which
has quite a rep for its track ab
ility around .the. eastern part of
the state.” - ■ .
We asked one more question.
Do you think you’ll ever beat
Barney?
“Can’t say. We’re both juniors.
I’ve always run second since I
can remember.”
We went out of the locker
room, 1 thinking that a first, and
second place in sprints might do
yard dash record here for awhile,
good these next two years.

Niitany Cagprs Display Fast, Spectacular Play
TiWin In Rk Hallj Lead: Af! Halftime
Captain-Johnny Barr racked up a total of 21'points and com
bined this withinspiredfloor play to pace the Nittany cagers; to a
45-38.’triumph ovee Georgetown’s Hoyas in JEtec Hail last night;
It is not known-whether Barr’s 21 point score is a record be
cause no statistics are. kept. 'However, it is reasonably, certain that
this is the highest individual total made in Rec Hall during the
last 10 or 12 years. The game
was without doubt the best seen
on the local floor all season.
State was daring, aggressive and
played spectacular ball for the
entire 40 minutes.
Georgetown, too, was good but
far from good enough. Except
for a short time late in the sec
ond half the Hoyas were hand
cuffed by an almost airtight
Lion defense. When they, them
selves, were on the defense, the
Georgetown passers failed to find
the answer to an attack which
repeatedly had the crowd on its
feet.
Matmen Prepare
For Cornell Tilt
After bowling over every mat
opponent but the Princeton Tig
ers, the Nittany Lions will begin
the second half of their schedule
when they sink their teeth into
tough Cornell Bear meat here
Saturday night.
With the Lion grapplers at
their highest peak since the sea
son began and scalps of Mary
land, Syracuse, ' Lehigh, and
Navy tucked, under their belts,
Coach Charlie-Speidel is looking
forward..to the~Cornell match as
a stepping stone toward eastern
mat supremacy.
Although the Bears haven’t
beaten State since 1928 and lost
to a strong State team last year
19-9, ,in the season debut, reports
drifting from the Cornell camp
indicate that the Bears have a
dangerous squad, recruited from
their 1939' undefeated freshman
team.
Captain Frank Gleaison will go.
into the tilt carrying a burden of
two - undefeated Reasons upon his
shoulders. He is rated - as : the
only Eastern Intercollegiate 136-
pounder who Has maintained a
clean slate this year.
Not only Gleason, but Chuck
Rohrer, 165-pounder, and 128-
pound Clair Hess are defending
undefeated records. Rohrer is
also the only Lion grunt-and
groan artist who has copped-.five
victories this season.
Hess, who switched, positions
with Charlie Ridenour and
wrestled at 128-pounds for the
first time against Navy, and
Gleason have garnered four wins
apiece, each failing to participate
in one match.
One Speidelman fell from the
undefeated ranks at Navy when
Joe Scalzo, 155-pounder, lost-a
close overtime decision to Navy’s
Captain Dick King who came
down from" the 165-pound class
to meet Scalzo. Only seven sec
onds separated the Lion grappler
from a victory as King tied him
on time advantage and outlasted
his lighter opponet in extra-time.
Elimination bouts for Satur
day’s fracas were started last
night with Bill Stanley losing, a
close bout to Hess for the 128-
pound spot and Scalzo trouncing
Jack Hunsicker. Glen Alexan
der, veteran 145-pounder who
has clinched his position since
the Maryland match will meet
Allan' Crabtree today.
Dean Waits Will Speak
R. L. Watts, dean emeritus of
the School of' Agriculture, will
speak to the Men’s Brotherhood
of Pleasant Gap tonight at the
Spring Township High School.

' THE DAILY COLLEGIAN
By JOHN BAER
The first eight minutes of the
ball game were hotly contested
but Barr tossed in an overhead
shot to give State a 9-8 lead
.which was never relinquished.
At this point the Lions had
complete control of the ball game
and pulled away to a comfort
able 22-IT margin at the half.
Seven of these 22 points were
chalked ,up by Captain Barr.
It was Barr again on a fast
break as the second half opened.
Jim Geibel and Captain Irv Rizzi
accounted for two fouls and then
it was Barr, this time with a one
hand toss from the corner. The
score: 26-13.
Midway in the last' half the
State attack bogged down mo
mentarily while Georgetown got
five consecutive points but the
Hoya flurry was short-lived.
Just before the gun sounded
Georgetown went on a six-point
splurge but it was ineffective as
the Lions continued to match
point for point.

Cub Five Swamps
Bucknell, 55-21
The Nittany Cub courtmen de
feated the Bucknell frosh for the
second time this season by
trouncing the Bisons to the tune
of 55-21 in Rec Hall last night.
After playing listless and
evenly matched ball in the first
half the Lion Cubs rallied to
tally 38 more points in the sec
ond stanza. The half time score
was 17-7.
Sid Cohen, with 13 tallies, and
Larry Gent, scoring 10 markers,
paced the Cubs to their fourth
victory of the season out of five
starts.
After the first five minutes of
play the Bucknell yearlings were
on the long end of a 5-1 count
but a long shot by Gent and a
tip from Cohen tied the contest
at the eight minute mark. The
Tbielmen never once gave up the
lead from that point.
