The Nittany Lions had little
trouble conquering the Carnegie
Tech basketball team in Rec Hall
Wednesday night, 52-32.
It was Jack Biery who led the
way as the Lions built up a 13-7
advantage in the opening min
utes of play. He scored three con : .
secutive field goals for this initial
bush, then w(iit
on to tally fivle
more field goals

Carnegie Tech,

and trailed • 24-14 at half-time.
Only ..the Lions' own erratic
shooting kept the score within•
bound's.
As the .Nlitany • Lions were
whittling Carnegie Tech down
to size, Navy scored one of
the major upsets of the season by

Matmen To Tra:vel To Cornell
There will 'he a lot or new
faces in the starting line-up when
the Nittany grapplers take to the
mats for their Saturday meet with
Cornell at Ithaca, N. Y.
With five of his regular starters
either injured or unable to make
the trip, Cowh Charley Seidel
is still not certain who• will start
for the Lions this week. He has
been holding inter-class compe
titions the last 'few" days - in an
:attempt to mold a strong team.
George Schautz, '12 , 1-pounder,
will probably start-at that weight.
In the 1213-pound class, Lux arid
Gray are competing for the berth.
Harrington, Noker and Mohney
are having a three-way battle for
the 136-pound nomination.
Ernie Closser, undefeated this
season, will probably start at 145
pounds. Grant Dixon, eastern
intercollegiate 155-pound champ,
is.on - the injured list and in his
place Wynn and Widdowson are
competing.
Dan McKeeby, a regular all
season, will get the call in the
165-pound weight, while Cham
bers and SpEeth are competing
for the 175-pound berth. In the
unlimited class Coach Speidel is
undecided whether Clark or Lang
will start.
The College Golf Course can ac
commodate between 250 and 300
players per day during the open
season.'
