Syracuse vs. Lions...
Gehrett,
To Hurl Twin Bill
College baseball fans will be treated to a double helping of
the diamond sport when the Lions meet Syracuse University at
New Beaver Field this afternoon in the season's lone double bill.
The first contest is scheduled to begin at 1:30 p.m.
The two games are the only scheduled meetings with the Or
ingemen this season.
Warm weather and clear skies are expected to lure the season's
largest crowd to the local ball
park to witness this afternoon's
banner program. Many Mother's
Day visitors will probably swell
the bleacher attendance
Righthanders Bob-Gehrett and
Cy Miller are slated to get the
starting nod in the two contests,
although there is a possibility Bill
Hill may start the first game in
place of Miller.
BEATS BISONS
In his last start Miller set Buck
nell down with two hits to white
wash the Bison nine 8-0. Hill has
appeared only in relief roles so
far this year.
Gehrett owns a record of three
wins and one defeat, the lone loss
coming last Saturday in an extra
inning contest at Pittsburgh.
The Lions will be gunning for
their eighth and ninth victories in
today's twin bill. The local nine
has been defeated only twice and
both setbacks occurred in extra
inning affairs.
The Nittany nine dropped a 10-
9 decision to Georgetown in 11
innings at Washington April 24,
and was nosed out by Pitt, 4-3,
in 11 stanzas last Saturday in the
Smoky City.
The lineup for today's meetings,
with the exception of the pitch
ers, will be the same that has
started the previous nine en
counters.

At East Lansing Today
Twenty-two track and field
men will wear the Blue and
White togs of the College this
afternoon at Michigan State Col
lege as the Wernermen strive to
win their first dual meet of the
outdoor season.
The team is well-heeled in cin
der contestants, boasting two
men who have cracked 10 sec
onds in the 100-yard dash up to
the IC4-A two-mile champ.
In the field events, the College
team is rather weak. Dave Pincus,
third-place winner in the Penn
Relay Carnival discus throw last
years, and Middle Atlantic cham
pion Buck Moyer are the only
outstanding contestants in the
division.
FOES CONSISTENT
Chuck Willing, who has
cleared 13 feet in the pole vault
in practice periods, will have two
Spartan opponents who are con
sistent at the 4 1/3-yard mark.
Four men are entered for Penn
State in the broad jump, but with
Michigan State's IC4-A champ,
Fred Johnson, holding a record
of over 24 feet, Lion performers
will have to surpass their pre
vious performances to place in
the event.

Syracuse Changes
1948 Grid Date
The 1948 Lion-Syracuse foot
ball game, originally carded Sat
urday, October 9, , has been
changed to Friday night, October
8, at Syracuse, Harold E. Gilbert,
graduate manager of athletics,
said yesterday.
It will be the third straight
year the Nittany eleven has
played a night contest.
Gilbert explained that Syracuse
sought the change because its
night game with the Lion grid
men two years ago attracted the
largest pre-game ticket sale in
the history of Lion-Orange riv
alry.
With Syracuse as the opponent
in two contests, the College has
until now booked night football
games only three times in 60
years.
TROUNCE NYU
In the first battle under lights,
the Lions walloped New York
University, 42-0, at the Polo
Grounds, N.Y., in 1941. The Hig
ginsmen blanked Syracuse, 9-0,
two years ago and last season
opened their undefeated cam
paign with a 26-0 triumph over
Washington State under the lights
of Hershey, Pa., Stadium. .
The 1948 football slate follows:
Oct. 2—Bucknell at State Col
lege.
Oct. B—Syracuse at Syracuse.
Oct. 16—West Virginia at State
College.
Oct. 23—Michigan State at State
College.
Oct. 30—Colgate at Hamilton,
N.Y.
Nov. 6—Pennsylvania at Phila
delphia.
Nov. 13—Temple at State Col
lege.
Nov. 20—Pitt at Pittsburgh.
Nov. 27—Washington State at
Pullman, Wash.
