Jimmy Ritter with 3 goals and Captain Bud Dattlebaum, in home, with 3 tallies were the only State stic:cmen able to find the range of the Orangemen. Despite the splendid goaltend ing of Nittanyman Mort Saler, Syracuse managed to keep jumps ahead of the Lions throughout the game. Several tines the Nittanymen found scoring opportunities but because of poor passing failed to tally. Sophomore Bobby Koch arid little Jimmy Riddell tossed one goal each into the Orange netting for State's remaining two points. The Orangemen led by a sparse 7-4 edge at the half, but went on a scoring spree in the third quarter to pile up eight points to the Lions' solitary one. In a nip -and-tuck fourth period the Nittanymen displayed a sud den spurt of lacrosse power to score three times, but the final gun found them trailing the Orange . 17-8. Orangemen Ken Malloy and Laurie Nigro paced their team mates by each scoring four points. Every attack man on the Syracuse team was able to tally one or more goals. Lion Coach Nick Thiel, former SyracuSe All-American, has bow ed once more to his own college coach Roy Simmons. With yes terday's defeat, the count in the seven-year sports rivalry be tween the two mentors stands 5-2 favor Simmons.. The Nittany Lions .aren't the only victims to fall before the Orangemen's thundering assault.

It's ninety in the shade, all the dubbers are out wrecking Bob Rutherford's spacious lawn, and it's only 157 days 'till the Lions open their 1941 gridiron cam paign with Colgate's Red Raiders on October 4. You've probably guessed it, the heat got us, and spring and sweaters notwith standing, we're going to give you our expert opinion (backed by five years of bench warming) on the forthcoming football wars. What made us take this out-of season prospective, when daisy picking and shorts are in style, is the climax to the Higmen's spring practice sessions Saturday after noon. Just like all other football followers around these hills, we bemoaned the gapping holes left in the Lions' lineup by the out going seniors and were all ready to throw in the towel when the Duquesne" powerhouse eleven would riddle our supposedly weak forward wall. Well, we're sorry to disappoint you all but the 1941 football edi tion to wear the White and Blue will do all right by us. To•every one's great amazement (we sus pect Bob Higgins' too), an eager squad of up and coming sopho mores, ably supported by several season campaigners like Captain Len Krouse, Pepper Petrella, Bill Smaltz and Sparky Brown, tore into the Dukes with vengeance and before the game was more than half over, piled up a com manding 18-0 lead. Let Boys Have Fun True, the Nittanymen cooled off somewhat after this and per mitted the visitors to deadlock the count before the final gun sounded. But for that, Duquesne can thank Bob Higgins and his generosity. The Hig evidently thought more of giving his entire squad the experience of playing against a standout opponent than chalking up a meaningless vic tory, which he could have easily done. Penn State Dattlebaum Riddell Koch Ritter Blair Campbell Henning Ziegenfus Gotwalls Saler It's very refreshing in these days of cut-throat competition, on and off athletic fields, to find one big time coach who places sport manship and conditioning of his boys on such a high level. After watching your sophomores filling in your so-called weak spots, Bob, we're willing to bet the Lions' opposition this fall is in for sev eral unpleasant afternoons. Which brings us to one of our pet peeves, namely, spring foot ball. Too bad all coaches, can't get togethbr and abolish this practice 'brought about by the pressure of big gate receipts. Everyone would be just as well off in the end and the boys could take 'life easy like the rest of us. Or does spring football come under the heading of national defense. PAGE SEVEN
