3 Cage Seniors
Play Last Game
At Tech Tonight
It will be the last game of the
season for State , and the last
game of their varsity careers for
three Nittany cagers . when the
Lions play Carnegie Tech at
Pittsburgh tonight.
Captain Johnny Barr, acclaim
ed as the greatest player in State
history, Scotty Moffatt and Bob
Crowell are the three seniors.
Every point Barr scores tonight
will pad the record he set Sat
urday by reaching a total of 506
points for his three years of var
sity play.
The Lions are heavy favorites
to make their record 15 wins and
five losses for the season. Car
negies’ string of setbacks is still
unbroken*- Standing at-16. On
February: 12 Barr and Co. ad
ministered a'42-24 defeat to the
Tartans.

probably - start the same five
players who opened the Pitt
game. Barr and Elmer Gross
will be on the front line, Herk
Baltimore at center, and Dick
Grimes and Bob Ramin on the
back line. Moffatt may replace
Ramin in the only possible
changer■

are CrOweil, Ray Edgar and John
Egli. Although this is Edgar’s
fourth year in College he was in
eligible oner season and plans to
be back next year.

Wrestling Weigh-ins
Intramural wrestling weigh
ins for both fraternity and inde
pendent units will be held in the
varsity locker rooms of Rec Hall
from 4 to 5:30 p. m. tomorrow
and Friday. Physical exam cards
are required.
The weight classes —with a 3-
pound limit—is as follows: 120,
126, 135, 145, 155, 165, 175, and
heavyweight. Anyone who has
won a championship previously
must move up one weight.
Scoring will be the same as in
intercollegiate wrestling. Bouts
will consist of three 2-minute
periods.
But the other carburetor
is alert and ready for any sudden need. Just
tramp down on that accelerator pedal—it
goes into instant action, giving you more fuel
and more power for any emergency purpose!
It’s almost like having too engines one
to handle normal requirements thriftily,
another to team up with the first for extra
oomph and wallop when you want it.
That kind of teamwork pays.
And owners by the thousand will tell you
it’s more economical too —as much as 10% to
15% more economical.
If you haven’t experienced what it feels
like to have that under the bonnet of your
automobile, better go have that Buick dem
onstration now.

models, available at slight extra cost on ail Buick Special models.

If Houck Worries,

Leo Houck may be worrying
about the Eastern Intercollegiate

this weekend in' Syracuse, but he
isn’t admitting anything.
The Good Doctor just keeps
telling everybody that he isn’t
going to make that trip to Syra

doesn’t claim all eight champions,
but he does predict that Jimmy
Lewis, EIBA 165-pound champ,
ought to do pretty well in the
