PAGE Sr" Blue-White Game Slated Tomorrow Blue Favored In Annual Grid Clash Today is the final day that Coach Rip Engle and his staff will be able to iron out any errors before they wind up spring drills with the Blue- White scrimmage tomorrow at 2 p.m. on Beaver Field. The Blue squad will go on rec ord as being six-point favorites, although it will be missing Co captain Tony Rados. The quarter back has been in uniform but has participated only in light work outs. Admission to the game will be via AA books since playing ti! on Beaver Field will overlap t Georgetown-State baseball gi• - scheduled for 2:30 p.m. Despite absences of some "name' players and several injuries, Coaches—Jim O'Hora, Al • Mich aels, and Joe Paterno of the White and Earl Bruce, Frank Patrck, and Sever Toretti of the Blue-- from both headquarters are anti cipating victory. Toretti led the predictions when he said, "They say we are out •weighted an d outmanned but we're not outfought." Serious-looking Paterno added, "We're not afraid of trick stuff." He then smiled and said, "Only Bruce's double wing!" Michaels concluded the discus sion by saying, "We didn't come back to lost." In order to fill the gap at tackle, which has incurred on the Blue squad because of injuries, a trade has joeen made sending backfield man John Thomas to the White eleven for tackle Walt Mazur. Captains of both squads will be the Nittany Lions' 1954 Co-cap tains Don Malinak and Rados. Probable starting lineups for the practice scrimmage will find ends Jim Garrity and Otto Kneid inger, tackles Jim Harding and Bill Biever or Walt Wampler, guards Pete Schoderbek and Keith Horn, and center Frank Reich making up the Blue forward wall. In the backfield the Blue coaches named Lenny Moore, Matt Yano sich, Don Bailey, and Ron Youn kers as starters.

Southpaw Paul Minner mow ed down the Pirates until he weakened in the eighth. John ny - Lindell's pinch double fol lowed by anof h e r two-base blow by Carlos Bernier knotted the contest at 2-all. Up untiz that time the Pirates had col lected only two hits. The Brooklyn Dodgers, behin- Ole strong relief pitching of Ben Wade and a pair of two-run hom ers by Duke Snider and Pee Wee Reese, conquered the Cincinnati Redlegs, 7-4, to climb into second place in the National League pen nant race. Wade took over in the first inning aft e r Cincinnati had shellacked starter Johnny Po dres for two quick runs and' held the Redlegs at bay, the rest of the way. The Dodgers col lected 10 hits, six of them com ing in the first three innings when they did all their scor ing. A weak version of the Bobby .12homson special—a home run in to the leftfield stands—gave the puny-hitting New York Giants a 1-0 ninth inning decision over the Milwaukee Braves after t h'r e e straight lossses. Thomson's homer came with one out in the ninth to end a pitching duel between Sal Mag lie and Milwaukee's Vern Bick ford. It wasn't much of a wal lop compared to Bobby's fa mous playoff homer into the same area, but it was more ef fective than the shakeup of the batting order made by Man ager Leo Durocher. • The New York Yankees-.whip ped the Chicago White Sox, 6-1 on an attack lunched with two successive he:. / :s, one a disput ed poke by Mickey Mantle which chased Sox Manager Paul Rich ards out of the rain-delayed con test. The two bleacher shots came in the fourth inning. Mantle's * - * —Photo by Schule_ blast bounded back into the field. The other was the first major league homer by rookie Bill Renna, who also tripled and singled in four trips. That alone was enough to salt away the season's first victory for lefty Whitey Ford. Ford scattered eight hits and after yielding his only run in the fifth mowed down the Sox one-two-three with a sases-loaded situation in the same fining. Collins' single following Ren la's triple and Phil Rizzuto's two-run single scored three in 're ninth. LAST NIGHT'S SCORES St. Louis 1, Phillies 1, called at end of 5.

The win marked the first Georgetown victory in the George town-State tennis series as long as Coach Sherm Fogg has been the Lion codch. It also sent the Lions limping home after a very fruit less Southern trip. The Nittany crew dropped both matches-on the two-day trip, scoring a. total of two points out of a possible 15. Navy ,romped, 8-1, Wednesday. The Lions also went tumbling two games below the .500 mark with- the Georgetown loss, setting their seasonal slate at 1-3. It was at this point last season that the Lions started their five-match win streak. Lac rossernen To Field New Lineup Partly because of injuries, and partly because of its winless rec ord so far, the Nittany Lion la crosse lineup will see two, and possibly "three changes in 'tomor row's game with invading Syra cuse. Starting time is set for 10 a.m. Coach Nick Thiel has decided to insert sophomore Luke Girard and junior Jim DeVoe at midfield, in place of the injured Dave Ar nold .and Bob Pawloski. Both Gir --d and DeVoe have impressed rn in recent games and work - ts, and Thiel is hoping that both help the Lions find the win inp:, formula against the Orange- Power in Starters Sophomore Ron Youtz, who here :,ofore has been a reserve, may get the nod over Dick Klein on attack. Thiel has been disap:- pointed over his closeup trio's in ability to make close, setup shots,/ and is still trying to find the right' attack combination. For the first time this' year, it appears that the Lions, in meet ing Syracuse, will be facing a team not unduly blessed with great depth. Unlike previous Nittany opponents e s p e cially Swarth more, Navy and Penn—the Orange boasts most of its power in its starters. Upended Lions 9-3 , The Saltine Warriors have an excellent goalie in Captain John Echeandia, third team all-Ameri can last year. They also have an excellent feeder in attackman Jim Burns. The Orange midfield trio is headed by versatile Bruce Yan cey, another all-America, and Dave Kline, who was a basketball center on the Syracuse team last winter. Last year, the Piety Hill repre sentatives upended the Lions, 9-3, at Syracuse while compiling a 6-2 record, losing to Army and RPI. This season, they boast an early win over Cortland State Teachers College, while losing to Dartmouth. Lench !s Elected Ronald Lench, of Beaver Falls. is newly-elected manager of the 1954 Penn State wrestling team. His first assistants will be John Sherk, Forty Fort; John Allen, 13edford; and William Wismer, Palmerton.

The number one`doubles out fit of Dick Robinson - and Lou Landon had just completed their the eccentric Von Urf.. Von Urf and John Frisby when the rains came and washed out the rest of the proceedings. Robinson, on again -off again, was the latter when he ran into the eccentric Von Uff. Von Uff had a big, high-hopping southpaw, serve that Robinson couldn't fig ure out the entire match. Scores were 6-2, 6-1. Landon, still playing in some sort of rut, took his fourth straight singles loss. Hoya John Frisby beat him in two sets, 6-0, 6-3.
