PAGE SIX Pitt Endangers Cagers Seven Game Win Streak ★ ★ ★ ★ Lion Wrestlers Meet Pitt Tonight Mat men Seek to Extendi Match Win String Against Pittsburgh In what should be an excellent diversion from final exam studies, Penn State wrestlers will expose their 13 straight dual meet win record to a strong Pittsburgh squad at 7 tonight in Rec Hall. State, 20-5 winner over Lehigh and 34-0 victor over Vir- ginia in two starts, is after i 1 U.S. Skiers Cop Ist, 3d In Austria BAD GASTEIN, Austria, Jan. 18— {IP) —Andrea Mead Lawrence and Jeanette Burr, two pert U.S. ski’queens, added to their Olym pic luster today by taking first and third places in the giant sla lom of the International Meet which lured stars from six na tions. Mrs. Lawrence. 19-year-old vet eran of the 1948 Olympics, won first place and Miss Burr, 24- year-old Seattle, Wash., star, was third. Erika Mahringer of Aus tria, separated the two Ameri cans. For a time Miss Mahringer was the declared winner of the event which opened the three-day snow circus. Then a check of the elec tric timing device showed her time was actually 2;06, not 2:00.6, and shunted her to second behind Mrs. Lawrence’s 2:02.5. Miss Burr was clocked in 2:07.1. Last weekend the Americans finished first and second in the Swiss Women’s National Meet, the title going to Miss Burr. To day’s triumph made them top heavy favorites in the winter Olympic games at Oslo Feb. 14-25. Tomorrow the U.S. men, who haven’t had too much success in Europe so far, compete against the stars of 14 other countries. Today’s race was run off in a steady snowfall over a course 1,100 yards long with a 319-foot drop. Edinboro Five Threat To Own Cage Records Intramural cage leagues are idle until Feb. 4, but the' interest in Edinboro’s powerhouse i combination is growing stronger and stronger. Edinboro, the defending independent champion, continues, to set new intramural records as it moves along its unbeaten path. Last year, on Jan.. 10, Edinboro set a new scoring record by rack ing up 80 points while trouncing Simmons Hall, 80-27. In this game, Bill Mihalich scored 30 points to set a new individual scoring rec ord. , These records looked like they might last for some time, but Edinboro had other ideas. This season, on Nov. 29, the high-scoring kings of the court walloped the Has Beens by a tre mendous 101-14 score. This out burst smashed their own scoring record. What was more phenome nal about this game was that all these points were made in 24 min utes of floor action, or an average of 4.2 points a minute. Mihalich, who was due to re turn yesterday from Harrisburg where he had been student teach ing. will find that his 30-point splurge in 1951 is no longer a rec ord either, Ken Bouldin, Edin boro’s giant center, took care of that item Wednesday night by scoring 32 points against the Pri vateers. i By JAKE HIGHTON ;s third straight of the season "against a Panther team which has won three and lost one. Pitt beat Indiana STC, Yale, and Michi gan, but lost a two-point decision tc Michigan State. Pitt,' directly opposite from the Nittany style of constant offen sive wrestling, will bring a de finitely defensive mat squad. Pitt’s wait -for-opportunities, counter-wrestling stems 'from their Coach Rex Peery who laarned his stuff at Oklahoma State, where he was three times NCAA' champion. Seven Men Unbeaten However, with three unbeaten matmen of the caliber of Hugh Penn State Homan * 123 D. Lemyre 130 Miller Fornicola 137 Matthews Don Frey 147 Uraro Donsr Frey 157 ( Solomon J. Lemyre 167 Kraus or McMarlin Samson 177 Wise Illingworth Hwt. Kane or Kraemer (storting time 7 p.m.) Peery, Hal x Miller, and Chuck- Uram, it’s not likely that these three will be working for mere decisions. The Lions will present an im posing sevemman unbeaten line up which will have only one change from the team which lit erally pinned Virginia to death last week. Husky Larry Fornicola, Belle fonte High star last year, re gained the 137 pound spot he handled in the opening Lehigh meet by beating out Don Maurey in this week’s elimination bouts. Fought to Draw Indicative of the strength of the Lions, Larry bounced the cap tain and EIWA champ from the job at the start of the season. Maurey turned the tables last week in eliminations, and Forni cola, not one to give up easily, rebounded in this week’s trial. Frosh Fornicola, who drew 2-2 in his first varsity bout, will meet Pitt’s George Matthews.

Podoloff, president of the National Basketball Associa tion, refused tonight to call a special meeting to consider re lieving referee-in-chief Pat Ken nedy of his duties. Podoloff received- the request today from Max Winter, general manager of the Minneapolis Lak ers whose club was defeated in a torrid overtime game at Syracuse last night. The league president said that the association’s by-laws provided for a 48-hour cooling off period between a game and a protest. Winter, Podoloff said, filed his protest within a few hours' and it was rejected for that reason. However, the meeting to con sider removing Kennedy will be called if other franchise holders demand it, Podoloff said. Winter said his team lost the three-overtime game to Syracuse, 110-105, because of the way ref erees Hagan Anderson and Johnny Nucatola handled the game. Ken nedy’s duties include that of as signing officials to the various contests. In his telegram to Winter, Podo loff pointed out that the many free throws assessed against Min neapolis came in part from the fact the Lakers had only eight men available for play.

Rea & Derick * ni^^^mfeii Season Records Mean Little To Unpredictable Panther Five Penn State basketball Coach Elmer Gross is hoping history won’t repeat itself when the red-hot'Lions travel to Pittsburgh to play Pitt in the Pahthers Memorial Field House at 8 tonight. Last season State went to Pittsburgh with a six game winning streak which the unpredictable Panthers rudely jolted with a sur prising 60-51 upset. Now the Lions are once again the talk of local court circles on the strength of their seven conse cutive triumphs and 9-1 record. The Blue and White set a scoring record of 85 points against Get tysburg Wednesday, then prompt ly broke it with, an 89 tally otit burst in the Dickinson, contest. Carlson Hates Zone Pitt has a 5-5 record—but rec ords mean nothing when these ri vals clash; This was evidenced in the first meeting of the Lions and Panthers in the Steel Bowl final. The Nittanies, ' a seven point underdog, upset the cart and ran away with a lopsided 62-40 Win. Doc. Carlson, Pitt’s fiery coach, may pull some surprises of his own tonight. Carlson, who has an intense hatred for State’s zone de fense, used the zone to help his team upset Syracuse. The Pan thers also deployed the zone in their 65-55 loss to Carnegie Tech this. week. Pitt has defeated Columbia, William & Mary, Virginia, Prince ton, and Syracuse. Besides the State and Tech losses, the Pan thers have been on the 'short end against Pehn, Yale and West Vir ginia. Consistent Scorer Tonight’s tussle also matches two .of the district’s top scorers— Jesse Amelle and Mickey Zer nich. Amelle, with 40 points this week, now has 173 for the season, an average of 17.3 per game. The tall freshman center jumped from 11th to fifth place in the tri-state scoring race. Zemich, six-three forward, has been a consistently high scorer for Pitt all season. Zernich has tabulated 161 points for a 16.1 average, sixth in the district scor ing column. Other starters for Pitt are Art Boyd (6-3), Dutch Burch (6-0), John Kendrich (6-1), and Don Virostek (6-4). Burch, a sopho more, scored , points against Tech -Wednesday. Virostek and Boyd are the Panthers’ top rebounders, while Captain Ken drick is a steady floorman. The Panthers also have been bolstered by the addition of a football player, end Dick Dietrick. Gross will start Hardy Wil liams and Ronnie Weidenhammer at the guards; Arnelle,. center; and Herm Sledzik and Joe Pior kowski, forwards. In reserve will be Jim Blocker, Ed Haag, Tiny McMahan, Chet Makarewicz, and Jack Sherry.

Ryan Fined, Has License Revoked ■ NEW YORK, Jan. 18— (IP)—' The State Athletic Commission re voked for life the licenses of man ager-second Tommy Ryan today and fined him $3,000 for 'his as sault on referee Ray Miller in Madison Square Garden last Fri day night. It was the heaviest pen alty ever assessed against an in dividual by the commission. Today’s hearing was devoted mainly to the circumstances'lead ing up to Rjmn’s attack on Miller following the Ernie Durando- Rocky Castellani bout. It did not touch on an alleged attack on matchmaker A 1 Weill in Castel lani’s dressing room that same night. Two witnesses testified last Sat urday at the commission’s pre liminary hearing into the rumpus that Ryan and another man had assulted the portly, elderly match maker in the dressing room. That incident and Ryans’ punch throwing at the referee, however, are being investigated by the New York, county grand jury. And Ro bert Christenberry, chairman of the three-man athletic, commis sion, said that the. case -is not entirely closed on l'affaire Ryan. After announcing the- penalty against Ryan, which also barred him. from entering any boxing clubs in the state, Christenberry said: “Certain other incidents that took place at Madison Square Gar den that night are a matter of official investigation by the com mission at this time.” Ryan did not testify at the hear ing today. s:*''.w/*: -vy-: ■ :<=• ■:
