Lacrosse Team
To End Season
This Weekend
Face Hobart, Colgate
In Final Encounter
Penn State will bring its short
lacrosse season to a close in a two
game, week-end stand on foreign
soil facing Hobart on Friday and
finishing up against Colgate, Sat
urday.
Hobart, flashing an undefeated
record over a tough seven-game
route, conquered Cortland State
Teachers, 9-4, Tuesday in its last
outing.
Disregarding Penn State’s
four-game losing streak, Hobart
Coach “Babe” Kraus views the
Lion test as the stiffest the Pur
ple will face this season.
The Statesmen oppose the Lion
stickmen minus the services of
Don .Williamson, All-American
defenseman, out the last three
games with a bad back and Otto
Berk, dependable mid-fielder,
who was benched with a leg in
jury.
For the past two years Colgate’s
stickwielders have had tough
sledding, winning only one out
of seven last year and being far
from impressive s o far this
spring.
Mark Galloway, in his first
term as lacrosse mentor, has made
numerous personnel ghifts in an
attempt to work out a strong
starting lineup. Outstanding
among the Warrior athletes is
Captain Austen B. Colgate, a
two year standout, who will di
rect the team from his inside
attack position.

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA
Lions and Spartans Clash Saturday
In Season's
Distance Runs Highlight Topnotch Cinder Program
Two titans of the collegiate track world will put their undefeated records on the line when Penn
State and Michigan State clash Saturday on New Beaver Field.
The interest will not be centered on the meet itself. A good share of the spotlight will be on the
individual battles which will take place in quite a few of the events.
Both teams are loaded with better than average talent and both have hung up impressive
records this season.
The Spartans, under Coach Karl
Schaldeman, gained tremendous
prestige April 16 when they were
tied by the University of South
ern California, 61-61, in the Los
Angeles Coliseum. It was the
first dual meet the Trojans failed
to win since 1945. '
The Green and White also
claims a victory over the strong
Notre Dame cindermen, having
taken the measure of the Irish
by an 86 to 56 count and winning
9 of 15 events. The Spartans also
dominated the Drake Relays April
29 and 30 by taking three firsts
and placing in four other events.
NOT IDLE
But while Saturday’s oppon
ents have been performing the
above deeds, the Lions from the
Nittany Valley have not been
taking things easy. The forces
of Coach Chick Werner opened
their season in impressive fashion
by topping Navy and Penn at
Annapolis, outscoring both rivals’
combined point total.
The Lions followed with a fine
showing in the Penn Relays, cap
turing three events and placing
in two others. Last week Penn
State swamped the Red Raiders
of Colgate by an 86 1-3 - 39 2-3
score.
As for the individual competi
tion, no small amount of atten
tion will be focused on the dis
tance races, where Penn State’s

Wins Soccer Title
By Harry Endres
Alpha Gamma Rho nosed out
Delta Upsilon, 1-0, to cop the in
tramural soccer championship
yesterday. ■
Bill Worthington booted the
lone goal of the hard-fought con
test past D. U. goalie Chuck
Drazenovich late in the second
period. Outstanding defensive
play was turned in by A. G. R’s
Bill Yerkes as he halted one D.
U. attack after another.
Delta Upsilon’s Joe Lane led
his team’s attack, just missing a
score when his kick halfway
through the second stanza struck
the right post of the A. G. R.
goal. “Rusty” Lieb played a good
game for the D. U.’s on both of
fense and defense.

one-mile run at the Notre Dame
meet, in addition to taking all
three positions in the two mile
race at the same meet.
All four of the distance men are
capable of doing the mile under
4:19. Dianetti and Mack are ex
pected to travel the distance in
the mile with Irmen and Druet
zler scheduled for the two-mile.
But the Green and White run
ners don’t stand alone in making
life miserable for the opposition.
Penn State has also acquired the
happy habit of sweeping the dis
tance runs. Bob Freebairn, Paul
Koch, Bob Auman, John St. Clair
and John Bates have led the Lions
to victory at different times dur
ing the season.

Ash has also chalked up an out
standing record this year. He wo n
the two-mile invitation run at the
Penn Relays, took the same event
at the Annapolis meet and did
an impressive job as anchor man
on the winning four-mile relay
team at the Penn Relays.
Coach Werner thinks Ashen

4:12 mile under pressure; of the
variety the Michigan State quar

be in danger when the Lions and
Spartans clash this week.
