Between the Lions
It won't be long until the baseball season gets underway at the
College, 'and Coach Joe Bedenk will be hoping for, a•little less rain
-than last year. when the local monsoon season practically washed his
boys out of an NCAA playoff berth. ,
The Lions played only 13 of their scheduled 21 games, and
finished with a commendable 10-3 record. If they hadn't hien
rained out of some of their important ) games, the Lions might have
gotten the NCAA bid. As it was, Princeton was selected after the
Nittanies received serous consideration.
Prospects for a better season appear bright, despite the gradua
tion of four regulars and the number one pitcher. Gone are Clarence
Buss, hustling catcher, Stan Laganosky, the team's
number two batsman, Harry Little, steady third
sacker, and Henry Albright, a fine defensive out
fielder,
But possibly the toughest of all to replace will
be Owen Dougherty, who was almost a one-man
mound staff last spring. "Doc" finished with a 6-0
mark and was named to the District 2,A11-Star nine
- Big Bill Hoppe;, slugging outfielder and cap
tain this year, is counted upon to carry much of
the offensive burden. This will be his third season
as an outer pasture regular. Last year he batted
made the second All-District team.
Other returning regulars will be Bill Mihalich at second, Paul
Mowry, shortstop, and Sil Cerchie, centerfielder. Mihalich is one of
the smoothest fielding players we've seen perform on Beaver Field.
Mowry improved swiftly last spring, but may have a rough time
getting the starting nod. Cerchie is potentially one of the finest
State players in many years. He his a strong arm, is fast, and
should improve at, the plate this season.
The outfield should be exceptionally strong with Hopper and
Cerchie in two positions and veterans Bob Schoellkopf and Chris'
Tonnery to fill the vacated ieftfield spot. Tonnery played short
last year until he broke his ankle. Schoellkopf, a left handed bats
man,
was the club's ace piiichhitter.
Although "Bussy" left a large pair of spikes to be filled, the
catching should be above-average. Bill Leonard, defensive foot
bailer, and number two backstop last season, will probably be the
starter this spring. Gus Vogt, and Bill Hirsch, two other returnees;
are available for reserve positions.
First and third bases will probably be filled by newcomers, as
will part of the pitching staff. Bill Everson, Dick Christensen, Jack
Krumrine,.and Dick Kelz, are returning hurlers.
TheNchedule vi lists 19 games for the Nittanies with nine at home.
The diamondmen open April 11 in Washington, D.C., against.
American U., then play Georgetown in a doubleheader the next
day. Next comes an extended thome stand with seven consecutive .
Beaver Field gamei, including a doubleheader with West 'Virginia.
After six away games, the Lions return home for games with
Temple and Colgate, then finish on the road at Bucknell.
'Break' on. Sidehorse
Cost Cronstedt Place
•
A. combination\of unaccustomed high altitude and a break iri the
sidehorse event caused Penn Stdte's one-man gymnastic team, Jan
'Cronstedt, to go unplaced in the 'all-around event in the NCAA
"gymnaStic tourney at Boulder, Colo., last weekend. , •
The thin atmosphere left Cronstedt feeling tired and as a result
the Lion freshman did not qualify for the finals in the flying rings
. •
and long horse jump.
As it was, the freshman caused
some head-nodding with-his per
formances on the parallel bars,
horizontal bars and in the calis
thenics. These events, in addition
fo the sidehorse, flying rings and
long horse jump_ made up the
all-around event. The calisthenics
and long horse, however, did not
count in the individual champion
ships
On the .h-bar, Cronstedt tied
Paul Goo dale, California, for
fourth place with 262 points. Two
USC gymnasts, Charles Simms
and John Bedkner, finished one
