Over Lions, 3-1
Jumping on Lion hurler Cy Miller for three runs in the third
inning, Villanova's Wildcats defeated the Lions, 3-1, yesterday af
ternoon on a mud-soaked field at Villanova.
It was Miller's first loss of the season against two victories.
The Nittany speedball artist gave up only four hits and struck out
thhee enemy batters, but his mates couldn't produce in the pinch
and give him the runs needed for victory.
Wildcat hurle r Hen Donohoe limited the Blue and White hitters
to five safeties, three of them
coming off the bat of outfielder
Don Stark.
Vill i anova jumped off to a three
run lead in the third by bunching
two singles, an error by third
baseman Tom Hogan and two
passed balls by the usually re
liable Lion receiver. Ed Holler,
to garner three tallies.
Mainline catcher O'Malley
started off the frame by driving
a single to left.
Miller then iisued second base
man D'Ambrosio the first of only
two free passes to put men on
first and second. With Donohoe
at bat Holler allowed two of Mil
ler's pitches to get by him, and
both runners advanced.
Donohoe then grounded out,
Miller to Wertz. Aigeldiner
slapped a grounder to Hogan at
third who threw wild past Wertz
and both O'Malley and D'Ambro
sio scored, and Aigeldiner went
to second on the error.
Aigeldiner tallied when Kline
singled sharply to center.
State's lone tally came in the

Faux Pas
Lion gymnastic fans will
know 'taint so when they pick
up a current issue of Life and
read that "no one has climbed
the rope faster than Garvin
Smith."
The California flash on the
hemp was out-flashed by 17-
year-old Don Perry here May 1
when Perry set a new world
mark of 3.1 seconds for the 20-
foot climb.
We predict a battery of writ-
I ten protests in the magazine's
mail—all from Penn State and
California.
Too Short
Incidentally, after the big meet,
Perry's coach gazed at the Rec
Hall ceiling and mused, "I wish
you had a higher ceiling here.
Then we could have a 50-foot
rope and you'd really see Don
climb. In 20 feet he can hardly
get started."
Layoff Ends
Penn State's Olympic contend
ers in gymnastics, Bill Bonsall
and Ray Sorensen, will resume
workouts on Rec Hall apparatus

Monday. Neither has practiced
since May 1.
At a gymnastic banquet Thurs

Coach Morris Touchtone's West
Pointers have won five games
while losing two this year. How
ever, the losses came at the hands
of Hopkins and the Mt. Washing
ton Lacrosse Club, National Open
champions. The Cadets will have
a chance to avenge the Mt. Wash
ington loss, for the two teams
meet again later this month.
Lion coach Nick Thiel is not
anticipating too much in the re
sult of the game, but he feels
that the Nittany stickmen will
make a creditable showing.
The Lions have been defeated
their last two times out. Two
weeks ago, Navy put the first
blotch on the Thielmen's record,
while last week a surprising Syr
acuse team inflicted loss number
two.
Starting for the Lions will be

chores, while Art Lorenz, Eddie

Although the weatherman predicts cloudy and cool conditions V)r
the Lion-Pittsburgh track meet on the New Beaver Field at 1 o'clock
this afternoon, five meet records and three Pen n State records wit
be endangered in the dual meet.
The top race of the afternoon will be the one-mile run starting
at 1 o'clock and predicted to end at 1:•04.8 with Jerry Karver trying
for a new meet and Penn State record.
This will be Karver's last race

EN Toga at Stake

Setting their sights on the top
spot of the Eastern Intercolleg
iate Golf Association, the Blue
and White linksmen tee off
against the Hoyas from George
town in the EIGA finals at the
Atlantic City Country Club to
day.
Winner of this match will play
the victor in the Dartmouth-Yale
contest in the afternoon for the
number one and two spot, while
the .losers play off for the third
and fourth positions.
The Nittanymen enter the
tournament sporting a string of
six victories and no defeats, their
best record since 1942, when they
amased a total of 14 wins in as
many matches.
Last year's third-place slot was
the highest the Lion linksmen
ever reached in the EIGA. This
year, Coach Rutherford is bank
ing on the performance of the
many veterans on the team, and,
as he says, "with a little luck,
we'll probably be able to finish
up near the top."
At any rate, a new EIGA
champion is assured. Princeton,
last year's top team, has been
eliminated, as has Navy, number
two team. The only. returning
entry is the Blue and White team
of Penn State.

PACE '!IIIRNE
at Penn State, and with a fast, dry
track, he Tates a good chance of
shattering his mark of 4:11.6 he
set last year in the Michigan
State meet on the College track.
Although Jim Gehrdes has run
faster than the 14.6 Penn State
record set in 1938 by Miller Fra
zier, his time was not official
since Lloyd Duff, Ohio State
hurdler, squeezed by Gehrdes at
the finish line.
With the competition strong but
not overpowering in the hurdle
races, Gehrdes stands a better
than fair chance of cracking the
meet and Nittany records in the
120-yard high hurdles.
Galloping Jim broke the 220-
yard low hurdle mark two weeks
ago against Ohio State, and will
be aiming to lower the :23.7 meet
record set by Jarold Sticker of
Pittsburgh in 1941.
ASHENFELTER
In the two-mile run, the 9:11.8
mark set by Curtis Stone is ex
pected to withstand the attack by
Stone's former running mate,
Horace Ashenfelter, but the meet
record of 9:41.6 set by both Stone
and Ashenfelter last year is slated
to fall.
Former national broad jump
champion, Herb Douglas, of Pitts
burgh, will be aiming at the run
ning broad jump marks of 24 feet
9 inches and 24 feet 10 inches
recorded in 1928 by the Lions' A.
Bates.
'Coldest meet record to be put to
the test today is the mark of :49.8
seconds in the 440-yard run set by
C. Torrence in 1926, and the most
recent records are the 220-yard
low hurdle mark of :23.2 seconds
set by Jim Gehrdes and the 151'
3 / 4 " discus throw recorded by
Dave Pincus two weeks ago.
