THURSDAY, MAY 28, 1942 lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllHlllllllllllllllllllllllllllim Between The Lions With DON DAVIS Sports Editor jiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiliiiimiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii For A Normal Semester ! For the first time in the history of the College, a Summer intercol legiate athletic schedule has ibeen [prepared and was released late yesterday by Neil Fleming, grad bate manager of athletics. A quick glance at the schedule shows that •we will have eight baseball games, 'six golf matches, six tennis ■matches, one track meet, and three tentative lacrosse games. •' Might we say that we were sur prised and pleasantly so with the relatively extensive program. Fuliy aware of the difficulties in arranging such a schedule for the Summer semester, we would like to go on record as commending highly the athletic office and Neil Fleming for making possible this schedule. We all realize the value and importance of continuing in tercollegiate athletics this Sum mer, but some of us may not real ize just how difficult it was to make the necessary arrangements. In the first place, few colleges, and especially nearby colleges were anxious to take part in such activity this Summer. Many schools that are carrying on re ular Summer semesters either are lacking in interest or financial means necessary for a Summer program. Another problem of course is transportation. But even this will be overcome. No More Pullmans Naturally the corners have been cut all the way along. For instance, the baseball squad v will meet Lock •Haven Teachers College on a home and home basis. The golf team will meet the Center Hills Coun try Club twice, and the tennis team will meet the College faculty in one of its six'encounters. - In all probability the teams will not travel in quite the style'that has been the case during regular seasons. Teams may stay in dor mitories instead of hotels. Local officials may be used. But despite all these really unessential nice ties, Penn State intercollegiate competition will continue in a fairly normal - manner. And after all that is what really matters. In cidentally, we were pleased to note that a Lion team will meet a Service squad for the first time this Summer, namely a tennis match with the Naval Reserve on June 27. More such matches in the future would be enthusiastic ally received, we are sure. Cornell Gomes Through That Cornell track meet listed tor July 4 at Ithaca will be.more than one might think. To be spon sored by the Ithaca Junior Cham ber of Commerce, four teams will take part in the cinder carnival, all the receipts of which will be used for Army-Navy relief. Spe cial events on the program will be the 120 high hurdles, the quarter, half, and mile runs, the 880 yard relay, and a special 600 yard run. lilillUlllllllllillllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllimillllllllllllll] \ For Weekend Travel ... i THE BOALSBURG AUTO BUS Leaves State College at 11:20 a. m. and 4:45 p. m.

Bethlehem home Lion Team Set For IC4-A Meet With Ewell Defending 3 Titles homie Morgantown Philadelphia home With qualification trials for the IC4-A Intercollegiates set for to morrow afternoon, the Nittany Lion’s chances are growing by the day as the team rounds back into mid-season form. Completed yesterday by the re turn of Captain Joe Bakura to the Beaver Field practice grounds, the team is now ready to tackle. its foes, the greatest track men in the country in the Randall’s Island stadium. Records and titles will be at stake and heartily defended by the former titlists who are still elig ible for competition this year. Vie ing strongly for the team title will be the Violet of NYU and the Nit tany Lion, both holders of IC4-A team titles. NYU holds the out door title won in New York last Spring. Despite the fact that experts be lieve the Violet • to be State’s strongest opponent, Coach Chick PSCA Employment Bureau Calls For Applicants Men students who wish to se cure part-time jobs should call at the Christian Association offide, 304 Old Main,- and fill out appli cation blanks. Students who registered during the Spring semester, and who are still available for employment, should stop fit the office and fill out their Summer semester sche dule. Although the student applicant is not assured of work, the Asso ciation Employment Bureau ex pects that they will have a num ber of odd jobs available during the Summer months. ■’"fr I "*’ 1 Lion Nine Aims For Memorial Day Game Against Pitt Aiming to put their last game of the season on the winning side of the books, Penn State’s base ball team went through a spirited practice yesterday afternoon. The Lions face a tough Pitt nine in a game against Pitt for Navy Relief here at 2:30 p. m. Saturday. Joe Bedenk, coach of the Penn State squad had “nothing to say” as he drilled the Lions in prepar ation for the Memorial Day bene fit on the New Beaver Field dia mond. If weather postpones the match, tickets will be honored at a Cornell galme July 18. Slated for the mound post is Warren Pyer, sophomore right hander, while Johnny Stover will be ready for relief chores. Ed Tuleya, who was an almost con stant starting hurler at the outset of the season, has taken an out field post in favor of underclass men. Eddie also suffered a leg injury which kept him off the pitcher’s slab. Leading the Blue and White aggregation into the fracas will be Captain Bill Debler, stalwart of the Lion nine. Debler’s hit ting has improved a great deal since the beginning of the sche dule and his first base play is al most flawless. Taking care of the keystone base will be another sophomore, Eddie Sebastialnelli, who starred with Leo Houck’s frpsh nine last year. Either Sparky Brown, ace base runner, or Bill iSidler will fake up third base duties, and Whitey Thomas will be stationed at short stop. In the outfield, Tuleya will probably be in left field, Bob Perugini, George McWilliams, or Bob Vaiil in center, and Jack Bur ford or John Ebersole in right field. Oggie Martella is the prob able choice to don the catcher’s mask. Werner insists that several strong er teams will be in the running for the team honors. The teams he will be watching for are the “dark horse” Dartmouth and Yale out fits which placed eighth and nine teenth respectively in last year’s intercollegiate meet. Entries from these colleges which are fairly close to New York City and the city teams will be large and a big factor in minor point-gaining, always a help to ward winning the meet. Penn State and other colleges will be limited in entry numbers by their distance from the site of the meet. Two factors in deciding the out come of the meet will be the lead ers Qf the two favored teams, NYU’s Les Mad Mitchell and Lion Barney Ewell. . Both will be de fending titles, Mac Mitchell in the mile and half-mile and Ewell in the sprints and broad jump. On these two stars, both teams will base their bids for the title. Ewell, trying for a triple on a triple, will be trying to break the meet record of eight titles estab lished over 40 years ago. Other title defenders, out to re tain the lead they have set up for themselves, are Jack Campbell, Fordham, in the 440, A 1 Blozis, Georgetown in the shot put and discus, Warren Broemel, Colum bia, pole vault, Harold Stickel, Pitt, low hurdles, Bob Nichols, Rhode Island State, two-mile. This fast field and veterans State has tackled in dual meets this season, Bill Carter, Pitt, and Lynn Radcliffe, Syracuse, always thorny in the Lion’s side will make the job of the Nittany spikemen one of the toughest they have ever tried to handle.
