Close Races Expected
In Penn State Olympics
The Mother's Day Invitation Mile may have the name runners,
but the regular mile starting the running events in the Pehn State
Olympics Saturday at 1:30 p.m. has the makings of a great race.
For the Blues, Don Ashenfelter appears as the "pro" in the field
of four but the White's Bob Parsons is not a. newcomer to the eight
lap race. Both Ash and Parsons ran miles around 4:24 for their part
* * *
'Ever Dangerous'
. in the Penn Relays four mile relay
championship.
Each team has a comparative
youngster in the race—but don't
sell them short. For the Whites,
frosh Don Bagby has been clocked
as low as 4:26 this season and
just last Saturday against Navy
the Blue's Bob Gellman took third
with a 4:22 mile.
McCall, Lockhart
The quarter mile will not be
without thrills. Blue runners are
all varsity tested. John McCall,
Blue team, won the 440 against
Navy last week in 50.3 and his
Blue teammate Bill Lockhart
holds the Penn State record for
the quarter at 49.1.
White 440 men are Guy Kay,
runnerup to McCall last week by
two yards, and 011ie Sax, fresh
man sensation who lowers the
frosh record in the quarter al
most every time out. His latest
effort cut the mark to 49.4.
At 100, and 220 yards, the frosh
may have a winner. Jim Finn for
the Blues streaked, with the aid
of a tailwind, to a 9.8 100 two
nights ago. Best hope for the
Whites lies in Bill Polito, •10 flat
this spring, and frosh Harry Mit•
chell, 10.2 last week
880 Evenly Matched •
The 880 is wide open. Running
for the Blues are Bob Roessler,
Dave Pierson and Dick Grice.
White thinclads will counter with
Vin Singer, Lou Gomlick and Sam
Hamilton.
In the two mile run, the Whites
have, in the words of Navy coach
Thomson, "ever dangerous Jack
St. Clair." Along with the exper
ienced Saint the Whites have frosh
Pete Judd.
Blue two milers aren't punks
either. X-country captain Dud
Foster has recovered from a cold
and may be ready to win. Red
Holten, fine frosh distance .pros
pect, and Jack Homer will also
be troublesome.
Hurdle races. are wide open. In
the highs the Blues have George
Kline, Fred Singer and Dick Zim
merman or Dan Garson. White
cindermen will send Ed Snod
grass, John Milsom, and Jack
Muench.
In the lows, Ted Mortensen
will go with Singer and Kline
for the Blues and Milsom, Snod
grass, and Dan Lorch for the
Whites.
Phi Delts Post
Soccer Victory
Phi Delta Theta, defending
champion of the intramural soc
cer league, battled Phi Sigma
Kappa to a 0-0 tie in a good de
fensive match last night, but won
the game on three corner kicks.
In a special soccer rule, corner
kicks are used to decide tied af
fairs.
Sigma Phi Epsilon beat Delta
Tau Delta on a corner kick in an
other 0-0 fray. One of the game's
oddities occurred during this
game when James Rogers of Sig
ma Phi Epsilon missed a penalty
kick. Whenever a penalty kick is
committed the ball is placed be
fore the goal with no opponents
defending , it. Rogers, however,
kicked the ball clear over the
goal. This was the second time it
has ever' happened.
Jack Pinezich of the All Stars
scored two quick goals in the first
period to spark a 3-0 Win over
Beaver House. Beaver House
came within their goal once
throughout the entire game in
the one-sided match.
Richard Zimmerman of Dorm 2
headed a ball off the Maurauder
goalie's head in the second period
to score an odd 1-0 victory over
the Marauders.
Lambda Chi Alpha defeated
Phi Kappa 2-0 in the last three
min rtes of play when Richard
Stanley booted two balls through
the goal.
Jack St. Clair
Ridge Runners
Cop V-Ball Title
The Ridge Runners won the
IM independent volleyball crown
by downing the Spikers, and The
ta Xi B and Phi Delta Theta A
moved into the finals as a result
of victories over Sigma Chi A
and Beta Sigma Rho B.
Spotting the Spikers • a nine
point lead in the opening game,
the Ridge Runners suddenly came
to life, and scored 11 consecutive
points to win, 15-13. The Spikers
did an about-face and won the
second game, 15-10. The final
game, which lasted 40 minutes,
saw the Ridge Runners capitalize
on the Spike& defensive mis
takes and combined with their
offense won, 15-6.
In the fraternity action Theta
Xi B beat Sigma Chi A, 15-6,
15-11, and Phi Delta Theta A

taken by storm yesterday after
noon when a powerful Navy team
throttled them 9-0 at Annapolis.

tating victory, the Midshipmen
now hold a three year winning
streak over • the Lions, having
beaten them last season and the
one before by 8-1 counts.

much for the Nittanies as they
took a clean sweep of all the
events.
The Middies operted the match
in style when Captain Hank Goel
zer took the measure of State's
Captain Owen Landon in an ex
tended first set, 3-6. Goelzer en
countered little difficulty as he
also swept the second contest,
0-6.
The Midshipmen continued to
stand their ground in the second
singles fray when John Mac-
Gavak triumphed over Dick Wie
land in straight sets, winning,
1-6, 4-6. Last year MacGavak held
down the number one post for
Navy, besting Landon in three
sets.

ond set rally to outplay Carson,
6-3; but the veteran sailor started
the third set at full speed to cop
the event, 0-6.
Hitting on deep valleys in the
back court, veteran Toni Souther-
land was a straight set winner,
overpowering Ed Davis, 2-6, 2-6.
As the match progressed, the

sparkling victory when he down
ed sophomore Bill Forrey, 0-6,
1-6.
Although Navy captured all the
doubles matches, State's first two
combinations staged galant bat
tles, but their extra sweat and toil
was to no avail as the Middies
were never headed.
In an action packed.first doub
les set, Goelzer and 'Don Hayns
worth joined forces to tame Wie
land and Landon by 0-6, 6-3, 2-6
counts.
