BETWEEN
THE LIONS
By BEN BAILEY
Sports Editor
Despite efforts of college sports
offiCials, the draft, rationing, and
the. petrol Broblern are slowly and
surely whittling down some once
healthy looking athletic schedules.
Penn - State felt it first when
W'eSt,Virginia canceled its wrestl
ing,nnatch which was set for Rec
Hall lait Saturday night. •
Npw. wprd has just come in that
the Pitt swimming .team has sign
ed en masse for bigger splashing
with .the armed forces, and so has
dropped the iport for the dura
tion. - •
Syracuse, which• feels lucky
that it-can still keep a basket
ball team on the road for occa
siprlal 'outside" appearances.
has also come through with a
sympathy card regretfully an
pouncing cancelation of . its
swimming met with the Lions.
Here's hoping Coach Galbraith's
aquatic aggregation can hang on
to the remainder of its schedule
to substantiate recent reports
which describe it as one of the
surprise teams of the season.
So far, Bucknell has been the
only school to cancel its boxing
match with State, but there is a
possibility others may follow suit
before the season's ocer.
Fortunately, the basketball
team is still above the scooter
and bicycle transporlation state,
since it does most of its trek
king by rail, standing or sit..
siting, depending on local con
ditions.
Many colleges aie giving up the
sport for the duration, or at least
effecting, drastic .cuts in schedules:
Some Pennsylvania• high schools
are resorting.to„daylight meets, so.
as to take advantage of "uncrowd
ed" taxis, trolleys, trucks, and
other "non-pleasure" modes of
traveling.

Lions Defeat Temple
In a game that resembled a
football contest more than a bas
ketball tilt, Penn State's revised
cage quintet overpowered Tem
ple's "five giants" by a 38 to 29
tally last Saturday on the Con
vention 'Hall court in Philadel
phia.
The Lions' first win of the cur
rent season on a foreign floor was
marred by rough playing and fre
quent trips to the foul line during
the 40-minute tilt.
For the first time this year the
Lawthermen found themselves on
the short end of 'the height ad
vantage. The home club had a one,
and one-halt inch height adVan
tage over the starting Lion team.
John Egli, who failed to see
action in the NYU tilt because of
an ankle injury, saw but.five min
utes of action in thd Temple fray
before he was ejected on fouls.
Jim Lawther, who played substi
tute forward during the early part'
of the season, filled the injured
Egli's shoes.
