PENNSYLVANIA Lions Conquer W&J For First Court Triumph Penn State’s green but willing court combine tacked up its initial basketball triumph December 18 by subduing a previously unbeaten Washington & Jefferson cage quintet, 40-38, in the Lions’ home opener at Rec Hall. A crowd —virtually studentless—of only 2000 spectators saw a classy exhibition of foul-shooting plus the back-court wizardry of the Lions’ two pint-sized play makers, Milt Simon and Joe Toc ci, pay off to break a Nittany los ing streak that had reached three straight. Coach John Lawther’s proteges hit for only 10 field goals, but sank 20 out of 27 rree throws which provided the margin of victory. The contest bordered on the rag ged side with the hosts striking from the field for 17.2 percent while the Presidents hit for 18.3 percent of their shots. As usual, field-generals Simon and Tocci provided the ball-hand ling pyrotechnics, sparking the Lions’ mixed fast break, set play offense The Presidents hopped off to a first-period 9-8 lead only to see the Centre County courtmen surge forward and carry off a 25- 23 halftime lead. Coming back af ter the interim, the Lions built up a 34-30 advantage and ihanaged to protect the van for the final 40- 38 count.

Bowls Claim Lion Attention Although New Year’s Day bowl games usually signify the end of collegiate grid campaigns, two Penn State football players, El wood Petchel .and Sam Tamburo, will continue to keep the Sport alive by participating m the Ha waii Bowl tomorrow and again on January 12. Oddly enough, the Nittany pass ing combination opened the post season campaign for Penn State on Christmas night as they played on the North All-Star team against the South. Tamburo com pleted two Northern aerials and Petchel halted a South drive by recovering a fumble in the Christ mas night battle.
