PAGE FOUR Cagers Battle Orange Quintet With a high-scoring, fast breaking Syracuse team coming to Rec Hall this Saturday. Coach John Lawther will have to pu‘ the blocks to his skidding squad in order to stop the Or angemen in a battle slated for 8:30 instead of the usual 8 o’clock starting time. Should the Nittany coach de cide to use Milt Simon, who missed the last three games be cause of illness, the Lions’ chances of upsetting the highly favored visitors will take a defi nite upswing. Simon, who was injured in the final quarter of the Bucknell game, sat out the next two games which Penn State lost by large margins. Although they suffered a 63-56 loss to Temple Wednesday night- Coach Andreas’ squsad is still ranked among the Eastern giants. Featured on the visitors' squad list is Bullet Bill Gabor, a form er All-American, and 6-foot 8- inch Royce Newell, who special izes in getting rebounds from both bankboards.
