Gridders To Clash In 'Bucket Bowl'
'Trophy' To Be
Presented By
Sportswriters
No doubt you've heard of the
Rose Bowl, Cotton Bowl, or Gator
Bowl, but what about the Water
Bucket Bowl?
That's the name of the Blue-
White intrasquad football game
to be played tomorrow afternoon
on the State College High School
Memorial Field. Kickoff time will
be 2 p.m.
The Collegian sports staff yes
terday offered a "water bucket"
to the winner of tomorrow's
game, so Earl Bruce's White team
and Al Michaels' Blue squad will
battle for the .possession of this
prized object. A member of the
staff will present the bucket to
the winning captain and coach
immediately following the game.
Refunds For Scholarships
The receipts of this first Bucket
Bowl game will go into a scholar
ship fund. Student tickets will be
sold at the gate for 50 cents while
general admission ducats are $l.
Both Bruce and Michaels have
discarded the crying towels and
boldly predict victories for their
squads. As game time approach
es the two mentors are studying
their team rosters and planning
secret plays and formations.
Bruce said his White team will
play an unorthodox style of foot
ball and will not have a definite
defensive system.
Shephard, Betts Captains
Both coaches announced their
starting lineups for this battle of
gridiron powers. Len Shephard
will captain the White team and
Art Betts will lead Michaels' ag
gregation.
The Blues will have Betts and
Joe Yukica, ends; Bill Hdcker
smith, Ed Hoover, tackles; Tom
Pevarnic k, Tom McCurdy,
guards; and Jim Dooley, at the
center position. The backfield will
consist of Tony Rados or Frank
Minana at quarterback; Ted Shat
tuck at left half; Bob Pollard,
wingback, and Paul Anders at the
bucking post.
Bruce's Lineup
Bruce's lineup will include Don
Malinak and Burt Suder at the
ends; Herb Raifsnider and Jim
Barr, tackles; Pete Schroderbek,
Don Barney, guards; and John
Podrasky, center. The backfield
ftursome will be Bob Szajna at
olA,arterback; Dick Jones and
Chan Johnson at the halfback po
sitions, and Shephard at fullback.
Michaels' Blues seem to have
an edge in the line with next sea
son's potential starting ends, tac
kles, and center. The backfields
seem on an even par with both
squads packing plenty of power.
Since the Blues appear to have
the better defensive team the
Whites will probably do more
passing.
Goodell Scores

Bob Goodell; last year's intra
mural badminton champ from Tau
Kappa Epsilon, is making a deter
mined bid to cop the title for the
second consecutive year. Wed
nesday night he won his third

Senators Take
Lead Position
In Junior Loop
The Washington Senators took
undisputed possession of first
place in the American League
yesterday afternoon by • trounc
ing the Chicago White Sox, 7-1.
In the only other afternoon
games in the majors, the New
York Yankees overwhelmed the
St. Louis Browns, 17-3, and the
Boston Red Sox whipped the De
troit Tigers, 6-1.
All National League contests
were night affairs.
The Sens chunky Cuban right
hander, who has allowed only
one run in each of his three
games, scattered nine hits in
registering his third straight vic- /
tory.
The Yankees, led by rookie
Gil McDougald, who powered in
six of the runs on a triple and a
base-clearing home run, tied two
records and broke a third, scoring
11 times in a wild ninth inning
rally.
Young McDougald, thrown in
at second base in place of Jerry
Coleman, was the big noise in
the Yankee attack, hitting a
triple with two on and a homer
with three on base in the wild
final inning.
Big Walt .Dropo, benched for
weak hitting for the last ten
games, smashed in four runs with
a double and single to spark the
Red Sox in their win.
Dropo punched a two-run
single in the eighth after pitcher
Virgil Trucks had deliberately
walked Vern Stephens to load
the bases.

all depth—heads for Annapolis

Buc Manager Meyer
Sent To Bed With Flu
NEW YORK, May 3 (A')—Billy
Meyer, manager of the Pitts.:
burgh Pirates, was ordered to
bed by his physician today and
Milton Stock, regularly the Pir
ate third base coach, will direct
the team in its game with the
New York Giants tonight.
Meyer is suffering from the flu
and was running a slight tem
perature. He may be back at the
helm tomorrow.
Half-Milers
Batsmen Go South;
Meet Mountaineers
The Nittany diamondmen will leave for the southland at 3 p.m.
today to play a doubleheader with West Virginia's Mountaineers at
Morgantown tomorrow.
Coach Joe Bedenk's team will enter the twin bill with a 4-2
season's record. The Mountaineers were hampered by bad weather
conditions early in the season, but have now won four of their last
eight games, including wins over
Pitt, George Washington, and
Virginia Tech. Last year they
finished with an 8-14 record.
Dougherty To Hurl
Owen Dougherty will pitch one
game for the Lions. Either Bill
Bair or Bill Everson will hurl
the second game, depending on
the weather and Dougherty's
control. Coach Steve Harrick will
probably counter with southpaw
Pat. Greegan and righthander
Dick Morgan.
West Virginia has four sopho
mores and another newcomer in
their starting lineup. Sophomore
regulars are first baseman John
Strycula, second baseman Wilbur
Stanley, lefthander Chet Cooper,
and catcher Jack Wellington.
Shortstop Bobby Wallace is the
newcomer.
Pittsburgher Star
Third sacker Dick Morton, cen
terfielder Lou Bonato, and right
fielder Al Purello are .lettermen.
Purello was shifted from the in
field this year. Bonato, of Pitts
burgh, and Wallace have been
doing most of the power hitting
for the Mountaineers.
Bedenk may make one change
in his starting lineup. Bob Schoell
kopf may replace Sil Cer - chie in
centerfield. Captain Bill Ondick
may also move into the outer
garden if the lefthanded Greegan
pitches.
Outfield Doubtful
Stan Laganosky will be at his
first base position; Bill Mihalick,
at second; smooth fielding Paul
Mowry, shortstop, and Harry
Little, third base. Bill Hopper will
be in right field, and either Cer
chie, Ondick, Henry Albright, Joe
Shumock, or Schoellkopf at the
other outfield positions. Clarence
Buss will catch the first game
and Bill Leonard will probably
be behind the plate in the second
game.
Since it is a doubleheader the
second game will probably only
last seven innings, Bedenk said.
Bedenk also said the games will
probably be high scoring since
th e Mountaineers us e drill
grounds for their playing field.
It has an armory irk short right
field and a mound in left field
which usually means a lot of
extra base hits.

Net Squad
Plays Terps
Tomorrow
Undefeated in five previous ap
pearances, Coach Sherm Fogg's
tennis team will meet another
dangerous fo e tomorrow after
noon when it hosts a strong
Maryland contingent on the var
sity courts.
The Terps under the tutelage
of Doyle Royal had been flying
high until a once beaten Navy
squad beat them recently, 7-1.
However, since then the Royal
men have fully recovered, hav
ing posted victories over Buck
nell, Georgetown, Loyola, Wil
liam and Mary, and Washington
and Lee. Their 5-4 triumph over
the. Diplomats was one of the
biggest upsets in the school's net
history. It was the first time the
Terps ever scored a win over
their rivals.,
Returnees Pace
John McCool, Thomas Beight,
and Lee Childs are the returnees
who are pacing the Terps this
season.
Unofficially, McCool ha s the
distinction of being the only un
defeated net performer •on the
Maryland squad this year. In the
Middies' 7-1 win over Maryland,
McCool netted the only point for
the Marylanders.
Terps Upsef
Last year the Terps upset the
Nittanies, 5-4, at College Park,
Md. After the Foggmen swept
through the first four singles
event, the Terps retaliated to cop
the next two singles sets, and
make a clean sweep of the dou
bles.
