Mori, for whose departure no satisfactory reason has been giv en, filled the heavyweight bill quite adequately last Saturday when the Lions defeated Army 6%-lid*. _His lefts and rights with their dynamite contents and his burly constitution gave little but a mdre polished style to be desired. ‘ With Mori out, Leo Houck will have to solve the fieavyweight problem all over again. Unless a new “white hope” appears, Houck will have to either re place Mori with Harry Masters or move Paul Scally back up. to the unlimited class.

It s part of the game ...to pause and THE DAILY COLLEGIAN John Egli, Bob Ramin Lead Nittany Spree By JOHN BAER Good feeling between Penn State and Mexico increased a hundredfold as the University of cagers proved them selves good diplomats by grace fully losing to a vastly superior Nittany team, 62-18, in Rec Hall last night. The Yellow Shirts, as the Mex ican passers .are known, were outclassed from the start. John Lawther put his reserves in early in the second quarter when the score was 22-3 and let them fin ish the game. Long, looping passe? were the chief stock in trade of the Mex icans but the taller Lions had little trouble in throttling this type of offense. Best shot and cleverest ball handler among the visitors was Tiny Dellino Flores, five foot, five inch forward, who dodged in and out to pace his teammates with eight points. John Egli and Bob Ramin of State were high scorers with 12 apiece. Captain Johnny Barr garnered six points during his short stay in the ball game. State got off to a lead just af ter the opening whistle when Ra min took a pass from Barr and flipped the ball in to make it 2-0. The Lions pulled away to a 12-3 lead at the quarter. The second quarter was com pletely dominated by the home team as Captain Humberto Sal azar got the only Mexico points on a pair of fouls. The Nittany cagers tallied almost at will to make the halftime count 30-5. The second half was practic ally a repetion of the first, Bob Crowell, Ray Edgar, and Egli led the State attack by piling up a combined total of 24 points.

Elliott was winning at the time. The Wolverines have defeated Dearborn AC, Northwestern, Ill inois,- and Ohio State. They were conquered by Indiana and Mich igan State recently because a few ineligible players at the end of the first semester left vacan cies in the 121, 165, and 175- pound positions. In order to cope with a strong, veteran lineup in the middle weights, Speidel may switch Joe Scalzo, 155-pounder -to his na tural 145-pound spot where he will probably meet Jack Paup, who has won five tilts this year. Glenn Alexander would move up to the 155-pound spot. PENN STATE CLASS RINGS BALFOUR BRANGH OFFICE At Charles’ Fellow Shop 109 S. Allen St. 18 l PtS. i: 6 |i 0 i -8 f 6 ! 12 !
