Gross' courtmen dropped their
eighth game of the season to the
Mountaineers of West Virginia in
Morgantown.
17 Straight Points
Trailing 70-49 with 10 minutes
left in the game the Nittanies
got hot and tallied 17 points in
a row while holding West Vir
ginia scoreless to raise the score
to 70-66. But the Mountaineers
put on a freeze and stalled until
the final gun.
The Lions played without the
service of Lamie, Tiny McMahan,
and Panoplos in those last impor
tant minutes. McMahan fouled
out before the first half was over
and Panoplos too took the long
walk with better than three min
utes left in the game.

season by dropping an 80-78
overtime game to the Little
Mountaineers. Bill Sherry was
high for the Lion Cubs with 21
Doints.

22 Point Output
Gives lamie Ind
Penn State Mark
By ERNIE MOORE
Basketball' Captain Lou Lamie
added another laurel to his ever
increasing collection Monday
night when. he broke the Penn
State one-season scoring; record
by tabbing 22 points against West
Vir,ginia.
Penn State's "Mr. Basketball"
raised his season mark to 308
noints, 9 more than Marty Costa's
record 299 points last season..
Lamie now holds two Nittany
scoring records, having set the
three-year record last month. at
Pittsburgh. He now has scored
655 points for Lion cage teams.
Foul Out Hurts
The Lion jump -shot artist
missed his' chance at the other
major Penn State record, the one
game mark, when he fouled out
of the West Virginia game with
eight minutes left in the game.
He will have but one more
chance to make a "grand slam"
of the Penn State records. The
Lions play their final game of
the season tonight against Penn
in Philadelphia.
Lamie, a senior in the School
of Physical Education and Ath
letics, will play his last basket
ball game in a Penn State uni
form tonight.
'Hesitation-Shot' Expert
The scoring of the Arnold, Pa.
product has been the highlight of
a better-than-average season for
Coach Elmer Gross' courtmen.
The master of a one-handed jump
shot that is difficult to stop, and
an expert feinter, Lamie is said
by many to be one of the greatest
players ever to don a basketball
uniform for Penn State.
Always consistant scorer for the
Lion courtmen, Leapin' Lo u
amassed his three-yeat record
with 98 points in his sophomore
year, 249 last yead as a junior; and
up to tonight's contest, 308 this
season.
In breaking the one-season
mark, Lamie became the first
Penn State player to score 300
points in a single season.
The Nittany captain will be out
to build. on both the three-year
and the one-year marks tonight
against Penn. Although the game
will be his , last for State, Lamie
will have the satisfaction of know
ing that every time he scores a
point against the Quakers, he
will be breaking two Penn State
records—and his own at that.
Valentino To Defend
Tumbling Title
East.
Saturday when most sports fansiin State College will be pre
occupied with wrestling, Rudy Valentino will be at Annapolis,,,,Md.,
doing a job that he can accom
plish with one hand.
In fact, he has done it with one
hand. The job? Winning the,
Eastern Intercollegiate tumbling
championship
Valentino won the title last
year with a wrist so badly sprain
ed that he had to
drop out of com
petition for the
National cham
pionship because
of the excessive
strain during the
Easterns.
It would seem
that the short,
muscular pi n - Rudy Valentino
wheel was missing top honors
until his senior year just as he
did in high school. But•now that
he is nearing graduation, perhaps
he will be able to follow through

Annual Improvement
It took the human top, beaten
only once in the, past two years,
three appearances in the state
high school tourney to finally
capture title honors. Each year
he improved, going from fifth to
third to first.
Last year it appeared that he
would be able to break the three
year routine when, as the Eastern
championships drew near. the
Lancaster, Pa. tumbler stood head
and shoulder 'above his competi
