caught in two double plays.

Point
Diner Moves Into Second
With 4-3 1 Win Over Malils
After
In a hairline play at the plate,
the Electric Diner pushed across
a single run in the ninth inning
to eke out a 4-3 triumph over Ma
tils, breaking the previous three
way tie and boosting the Diner in
to undisputed possession of seer
ond place in the Independent Soft
ball league. _
After spotting Matils three runs
in the first •feame the• Diner tied
the score with two runs in the
third' and a single in the sixth.
Opening' the second extra inning
the Diner succeeded in getting two
men• on' the bases with two out.
Schindler then, lashed out a single
to left; while the base runners
raced• for home. At almost the
same instant The first one was
crossing' the prate, the runner
from• first was -called out trying
'to make third. It was ruled that
.the run had crossed before the out,
however, and with it the game.
. The league leading Canal St.
Firehouse, with - Johnny Silan on
the mound and Art Borsa holding
down the hot corner, continued on
their winning way when they
scored heavily in the late innings
to register an 8-3 win over Jordan
Hall. Silan showed, good form in
limiting the Dorm boys to six hits.
In Section 5, with Cruikshank
twirling eight hit ball, Sigma Al-

the season opened last April, the
Lion golfers tort: their meet with
Colgate Saturdak on the College
course, 5-4. The_ winner was still

slight margin, the first two Lion
foursbmes finished in good order.

Chuck Maclay and Jim McCor
mick, lost their matches and Col
gate also . took., best ball.
In the fight for the match that
took place' as the last foursome
played onto the" last few' holes,

heat. On Friday, the Lion golf
ers had little' difficulty in winning
three points, but Saturday saw a
complete reversal.
Boyle of Colgate took Maclay,
3 and 2; while Feurback had to go
to 20 holes to defeat McCormick.

3. Stephens' game on Saturday
. was, one of the best of the year.
The Lion co-coptain turned in a
one-under-par 68, which is excell
ent for the College 'course, and
seldom beaten. Stephens had
been gunning for Burke who was
the only player to defeat him in
intercollegiate play this year.
The other captain of the Lions,
Bill Swan, suffered a reversal at
the hands of his opponent, Los&
and dropped his match, 4 and 3.
Penn State won best ball for a
point, 4 and 3.
Dick Hastings and Ed Fairchild
both beat their Red Raider oppo
nents, but lost best ball to Col
gate for one point. Hastings took
over Fox, 5 and 3, while Fairchild
defeated Hamilton, 3 and 2, to re
verse the win Hamilton scored, for
Colgate the day before.
Colgate stopped the Lions just
three matches Short of 'a perfect
Spring and Summer season. The
Nittany golfers still have one
match to play with Cornell here
over Victory Weekend and two
more meets with Centre Hills
Country Club have been added to
the card.
