Orange Guns
Unbeaten Syracuse, rated the
Nation's 14th best team, will in
vade Rec Hall at 8 tomorrow
night in what promises to be one
of the Lions' best home attractions
of the cage season.
The Orangemen are near the
top in collegiate team scoring
and boast two of the country's
leading scorers—Ed Miller, six
eight center, and Bob Roche, In
their six successive triumphs over
Canisius, Brigham Young, Niag
ara, Dartmouth, Loyola of the
South, and Cornell, the Orange
has averaged over 80 points a
game.
Co-captain Miller, fourth in the
nation in scoring, has averaged
24 points per game. Against Can
isius in the Orangemen's opener,
he broke the Buffalo Memorial
Auditorium record with 40 points.
The New Rochelle, N.Y., senior
stands a good chance of cracking
the school's one year scoring rec
ord, and is an excel le n t re
bounder.
Veteran Lineup
Roche, five-eleven senior guard,
clicked for 35 points in the
Orangemen's 81-79 victory over
Cornell Saturday. Until last week
he was 50th in the nation in in
dividual scoring with a 15.6 aver
age per game.
Coach Marc Gurleys has three
other veteran starters. Eric Hug
gihs (6-3) and Stan Swanson (6-1)
senior forwards, and Bill Mani.-
kas, junior guard, complete the
first five. Swanson• sparked the
Orange to victory over Bradley
in the championship round of the
National Campus Tournament
last season.
The Lions, with a 5-1 record,
have a three-game win streak on
the line. Coach Elmer Gross will
attempt to curb the high-scoring
visitors with a tight defensive
game. Last week State was sixth
in the nation in defense.
Gross' Starters
The game also will present a
rivalry between two former high
school teammates. Both Syra
cuse's Miller and Jesse Arnelle,
the Lions scoring stalwart, are
from New Rochelle, N.Y. Arnelle
has scored 82 points in the first
six games for a 13.1 average.
Gross will probably start the
same lineup which has opened
the last three contests. Freshman
Ronnie Weidenhammer and Co
captain Hardy Williams will be at
the guards; Arnelle, center, and
Herm Sledzik, averaging 10 points
a game, and Joe Piorkowski, for
wards. Sophomore Ed Haag, who
scored 12 points against Colgate,
will see plenty of action.
Syracuse leads in the series be
tween the two schools with 25
wins and 19 losses. Last season
the Orange won both games from
State, 61-59, and 50-46. Gurley
scouted the Lions at the Steel
Bowl tournament in Pittsburgh.

Cautious against always tough Lehigh, Lion wrestlers can be

Tau Kappa Epsilon's chances
for repeating its reign at the top
of intramural fraternity basket-
ball suffered a setback Monday
night when undefeated Sigma
Phi Sigma conquered the defend
ing champions, 22-18.
The win was the third for Sig
ma Phi Sigma, while TKE is two
full games back with one win and
two losses. Armand Lykens led
the winners with 10 points.
Beta Theta Pi kept even with
Sigma Phi S i g m,a by dumping
Kappa Delta Rho, '2O-15, as Ted
Jackson tallied 16 of the winners'
points. The win was significant
since KDR had earlier in the sea
son beaten Tau Kappa Epsilon.
In other League D games, The
ta Chi shut out Alpha Epsilon Pi
in the first half, and then went
on to score a 16-7 victory. Pi
Kappa Phi increased its two point
halftime lead in the second half
and won a 19-14 triumph over
Tau Phi Delta.
Alpha Chi Rho and Sigma Al
pha Epsilon moved to within one
game of Sigma Phi Epsilon in
League C by notching wins over
Sigma Alpha Mu and Delta Theta
Sigma. Al Wittenmaier garnered
14 markers to lead Alpha Chi
Rho to its 24-15 win. SAE romped
over Delta Theta Sigma, 25-11, as
Wayne Hockersmith tallied 10
points.
The lone other game in League
C was a defensive battle in which
Phi Epsilon Pi edged Alpha Phi
Delta, 10-9.
, Two unbeaten fives kept their
winning streaks alive in the two
games played in League E. Phi
Kappa used an impregnable de
fense to smash Omega Psi Phi,

by trouncing Phi Sigma Kappa,

rushed the team along to mid
season condition for Lehigh,
always one, of the East's best, and
as a result the matmen were tight,
tense, and over-cautious.
Six Lettermen
The fact that, not one Lion
wrestler did , badly—not even
loser Doug Frey at 157 pounds—
but none were outstanding or
spectacular attests to the caution
the Nittanies were using.
Virginia, one of the stronger
teams in the Southeast Corifer
ence, will bring a squad whose
starting lineup could have six let

Last year the Cavaliers won
eight times, and lost thr e e
matches. State licked the South
erners 28-8.
Good Replacements
One of the encouraging fctors
in the win over Lehigh was the
victories won by replacements
for 177 pound and heavyweight
EIWA champions, Mike Rubino
and Homer Barr, wh o m Couch
Speidel•recently named to his ail
time wrestling team.
Hud Samson at 177 pounds and
Lynn Illingworth, wrestling
heavyweight, came up wit h
strong decisions over Lehigh mat
men to indicate that Rubino and
Barr's positions may be adequate
ly filled.
Don Frey's overpowering of a
lower weight class - ETWA cham
pion George Feuerbach was an
other bright spot in the rout of
Lehigh.
NFL Denied
Suit Dismissal
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. B—(io—
federal judge today ordered a
full trial of the government's
anti-trust suit against the Na
tional Football League. The trial
is expected to be the start of a
showdown on how far sports pro
moters can go in controlling
broadcasting and televising of
sports events.
Judge Allan Grim denied an
NFL motion for dismiisal of the
government suit which attacks
the league's program to control
radio broadcasts and TV of pro
fessional football games. The jur
ist said in U.S. district court that
he felt the 'case has "tremendous
public importance" and therefore
should be given full trial.
Just how far reaching this case
may be was indicated when Judge
Grim asked Assistant U.S. At
torney Perry Epes if the govern
ment's case also would apply to
non-profit organizations such as
colleges.
Epes replied, "We think so, your
honor," adding, "any agreement
that restricts the sale of television
or broadcast rights by group ac
tion and takes away the indi
vidual right of choice is illegal =
pro or college."

Coaches Criticize
Reform Proposals
CINCINNATI, Jah. B—(AP)—The first formal reply to thi
sweeping reform proposals made by the presidents' committee o:
the National Council on Education came out of the gathering of col
lege athletic bigwigs here today.
The executive committee of the American Association of College
Baseball Coaches, meeting in connection , with the National Collegiate
A. A. convention, decided to issue
a statement of position.
Aroused by the presidents' de
mand for curtailment of the base
ball season, among others, and by
general criticism of college sports,
the coaches re-affirmed their be
lief that college baseball had been
under-emphasized rather than
over-emphasized.
Would Curtail Practice
Members of the executive com
mittee indicated that they felt
baseball deserved special consid
eration because of its recreational
value andr betause many college
players are preparing to go into
the professional game. They
favored retenti9n of the NCCA
championship tournament, which
would be eliminated under the
presidents' proposals and op
posed' curtailed practice seasons.
The NCE committee program
would limit baseball practice and
games to the period between
March 1 and commencement.
This would rule out fall practice
—held at several schools—and in
door workouts in the late winter.
