Leopard's Three
Season Dominance
By JIM- PETERS
Coach Joe Bedenk will send
his unbeaten Penn State nine
against Lafayette this after
noon in what may be the
toughest assignment of th e
season for the Lionss The game
is scheduled ' for 2:30 p.m. at
Beaver Field.
The Leopards (5-2-2) are tradi
tionally a rough aggregation, and
according 'to their record this
spring, appear to be just as much
a problem as ewer. The Lions
have not defeated Lafayette for
three years. However, State will
field a powerful team today that
has swept past seven consecutive
opponents this year.
The Lions are, averaging better
than.'aeven runs a game, and as
a team are hitting - a potent .309,
with' catcher Bill Leonard lead
ing the regulars with a .381 mark.
Lafayette may use Ronald
l?weh. its young freshman hurler,
in todales -all-important game.
•
Owen.. a southpaw from Wyom
ing,`Fa,. allowed only one un
earned run in the 19 innings he
pitched prior to , Wednesday's
game with Muhlenberg.
Bedenk is in a good position to
start' either of 'his aces, 'Bill Ever
son (3-0); or Jack Krumrine (2-0),
aor Keith Vesling (2-0). Everson
beat the Bisons with only two
days, rest, and may get the call
again today.
The reSt• of the Nittany line-up
will probably be unchanged,
showing -Mike Hun'char, Bill Mi
halich, Carmen Troisi. and Huber
Kline in the. infield; Captain Bill
•Hopper, Sil Cerchie, and Chris

Lacrossemen Face Penn Today,
Seek to Even Win-Los Record
After losing two of its first
three matches, the Penn State la
crosse team will seek to bring its
record to the .500 mark when it
battles Penn today at Philadel
phia.
Last year, the lacrossemen beat
Western Maryland and then drop
ped tilts to Loyola and to Navy.
After that, State was practically
unbeatable, losing only to Syra
cuse in one of its lagt six games.
Penn State seemingly is on the
same path this year as it lost
its first matches to Loyola and
Navy and then rallied in the final
quarter .of Thursday's match to
beat Washington and Lee, 7-6.
This was its first win.
State will go along with the
same ten men who beat the W&L
Generals alt ho ,u,g h attackman
Doak Walker may be able to start
if his sprained ankle is better.
Walker's outlook is doubtful,
however, and Coach Nick Thiel
will probably go along with Bob
Koon, Dick Rostmeyer, and Tom
Goldsworth. Koons and Ros t
meyer each scored a goal against
Washington and Lee. Rostmeyer's

final quartet.
At midfield, Thiel will open
with the John Yohman, Wayne
Hockersmith, brother of foot
baller Bill Hockersmith, and Cap
tain Bud Wolfram. Hockersmith
was the offensive star for State
against Washington and Lee with
three goals, two of them in the
final period.
Defensively it will be Barr
Asplundh and a pair of Johns—
Henry and Amber.
Don Bell, who played a stellar
game at goal, will open at the
goal tending spot.
Although its record doesn't
