OPEN EVENINGS Richardson To Twirl Against Midshipmen Penn State's varsity baseball team _plays Navy at Annapolis this afternoon in the first of three_ games on a road trip that throws the Lions against three of the strongest teams in the east. Jim Richardson, lanky south paw, will pitch for the Nittany nine in its effort to raise the .500 winning percentage recorded in the eight games played to date. Eighteen Lions made the trip. In addition to the regular start ing line-up, Coach Joe Bedenk took . along Teserve pitchers Chuck . Medlar, Ed Tuleya, Bob Robinson, Wes Smith, and Al Maurer, reserve catchers Alex Basista and Jim Sampsel, and utility fielders Fran Farris and Ray Edgar. Medlar, veteran right-hander, will be twirling for his third win against Colgate on Friday. Tu leya, sophomore southpaw, is scheduled to hurl against the Syracuse Orangemen on Satur day. • -- Usual Lion starters will see action in the Navy game today. They are Jack Stauffer catching, Bill Debler at first, Captain Eddie Sapp at second, White Thomas at short, - Freddy Ball at third, Peany Gates in left, Warren Kolkebeck in center, and John Ebersole in right field. Syracuse is the only team on the trip schedule that has been met by-the Lions .earlier in the season. The Orangemen were stretched to ten innings in down ing the Nittany tossers 7-4 on Beaver Field, April 26. The Bedenkmen will return to State College on Sunday, take a day off, and leave for Pittsburgh to play the Panthers on Tuesday. Golfers Hit Jinx In Hoyas Match Coach Bob Rutherford's un beaten Lion golfers will face their stiffest competition this sea son when they take on George town, last year's E.I.G.A. cham pions, Friday afternoon on the College course. The Hoyas have been a peren nial nemesis to the Nittanymen since they were scheduled in 1936. In the past five years of the series, Georgetown has won all its matches with Penn State. The Lions nearly overthrew the Hoya jinx in 1939, but they •end ed up on the short end of a 5-4 score. Last year, they lost 6-3 to the champs. At present, State and George town are tied for first place in the Middle Atlantic division of the E.I.G.A. Last week, while the Lions were trimming Pitt and Cornell, the Hoyas downed_ Penn and a veteran Princeton team. State will take on Prince ton, Saturday morning, and - the quakers in the afternoon. The Lion linksmen now have . five consecutive victories tucked under their belts, with Army, W&J, West Virginia, Pitt, and Cornell on their list of links vic tims, But unbeaten records are nothing new to. Bob Rutherford's mashie-men. In 1939, they drove impressively through six matches )efore suffering a loss by bowing ,o Princeton. That season's rec )rd stood _seven wins and only wo defeats—Georgetown was he other victor. The standings: W. L. Pct.

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN Leads Lions Today Captain Eddie Sapp, - above, leads the Lion baseballers on the field against the Navy at Annap olis today in the first of three 'games on a five-day trip. 111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 1111111111 1 Between The Lions With PAT NAGELBERG 11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 1 1 111111 1 The Athletic Association will hold its annual election on Mon day and included among the is sues up for a vote before the student body is the four year ruling which if passed will pro hibit any athlete from competing in intercollegiate competition after eight semesters in college. On the surface there seems nothing drastic about the ruling. In fact, it is intended to put Penn State on the same athletic level as' Most major universities and colleges nctw under the eight se mester rule. The joker of the whole affair" is, however, that the four year rule was passed by the Faculty Committee of the Athletic Ad-' visory Board and will go into effect next September regardless of whether the students pass on the amendment. In other words, we're going to the polls on Mon day and vote on an issue which is already been taken out of our hands by the powers that be. We don't doubt that the fac ulty members of the Athletic As sociation have the good of Penn State at heart and would like to see the Nittany Lion an import ant factor on the sports horizon. We also admit that they may be better qualified than students to decide on athletic eligibility. The fact remains, however, that the Athletic Association constitution gives the student body the rigl , to vote on just such issues. • Furthermore, after scanning through the AA rule book, we can't find any loop-hole which gives the faculty members th( power to railroad through ar change in the athletic eligibilL code without first discussing the matter with the student repre sentatives on the board. A nega tive vote on the amendment Monday should certainly find several red faces among the big wigs. The Collegian stated yesterday morning that Roman Pieo, cap tain••elect of the gym team would be the only athlete affected by the new ruling. Closer investiga tion dis Closed several other cases where stars of various teams would find their intercollegiate athletic careers curtailed. Quite a few athletes put in a semester or year at other insti tutions before they succumbed to the lure of the Nittany moun tains. Most of them are not tramp athletes, but came here honestly believing that they could acquire a better education in their chosen fields at State than in the col leges of their previous choice. Point For Upset Over Unbeaten Quakermen Shooting for an even bigger upset than ldst Saturday's defeat of Syracuse, the Lion netmen will face Coach Wallace Johnson's Pennsylvania tennis squad at Philadelphia this afternoon. Coach Ted Roethke's charges will have to play their best brand of tennis to stop the Quakers who have not been beaten in Eastern competition for two years. Although the same squad that beat Syracuse is making the trip Roethke may make some changes in the lineup that will take to the court against the powerful Red and Blue squad. After dropping their first two matches the Nittany aces have come back strong and are now riding on the crest of a three game winning streak. Roethke gives the squad only an outside chance to keep up their streak today, however. As leadoff man, Captain - Mac Weinstein will oppose the Quak er's No. 1 man, Bill Kilgus, in what should be a very close battle. Other Lion netmen that left last night for Philadelphia are sophomore star, Don Parker, vet eran Del Hughes, Chuck Bow man, Bill Lundelius, John Knode, Don Davis, and Charlie Hough. Roethke expects his concen tration on doubles play to pay dividends this afternoon at the expense of Penn's doubles teams, Kilgus and Bloom, Applestein and Schaefer, and Peele and Weintraub. The courtmen meet Cornell's net team on the home clay at 2 p.m. this Saturday.
