Gagers Lose
7563; Jesse
Scores 33
By DICK McDOWELL
Despite a 33 point barrage
by center Jesse Arnelle, the
Lion basketball team dropped
its fourth game of the season
last night, losing to a red-hot
Colgate quintet, 75-63. The
loss was the second in a row
for the Grossmen.
Arnelle fired 10 field goals and
13 foul points through the nets
in his biggest scoring night of the
campaign, but it wasn't enough.
The Red Raiders fast break and
pressing I—an-for-man defense
kept the Lions in check from the
opening whistle. While Arnelle
piled up points from inside the
key-hole, Lion shots from outsisle
failed to connect. The Nittanies
could post only a 27 per cent av
erage from the floor.
Lions Tie 9-9
Colgate took the lead early in
the first quarter and held it for
the remainder of the game. The
Lions tied the score 9-9 momen
tarily in the middle of the period
on Arnelle's sweeping hook, but
Coach Howard Hartman's floor
men, averaging an earlier loss to
the Lions. soon regained com
mand and moved ahead to stay.
The Period ended, 16-13.
The Raiders came through in
the second frame scoring 21
points while the Lions could mus
ter only 13, and led the visitors,
37-26, at the half. The Lions ap
peared to be catching fire in the
third period. The Lions' scoring
increased to 21 tallies in the third
period but Colgate kept up its
first half pace, with 19.
The Lions kept pushing in the
final frame but the fired-up Raid
ers, far from the team they were
in Rec Hall a month ago, kept
up their relentless pace.
Patterson High
Colgate captain Frank Patter
son and forward Bill Johnson
were the big men fox the Raiders,
Patterson tossed in 26 points and
Johnson followed with 16. But the
big factor in the LTittany loss, its
fourth straight on the Colgate
court, was the Raider rebounding
strength and the Lion failure to
score from outside.
The Lions move on'td Syracuse
tonight where they take on the
Orange in their last away contest
of the season. Syracuse, also an
earlier victim of Elmer Gross'
quintet, whipped Colgate last
week by two points. The Orange
sport a 9-9 record. The Lions Will
be making their third bid for win
number ten.

Gymnasts to
At Stake at
Gene Wettstone's gymnastic Nittany Lions have much to lose and more to gain
when they tangle with the U.S. Military Academy in an all-important Eastern gym duel'
tonight on the Cadets' home grounds.
The Lions, Eastern Kingpins and titleholders in the NCAA gymnastic finals last
year, could very appropriately go into the meet garbed in pressurized suits. Their two
championship crowns and their 12 game winning streak, three of which have been earned
this season, are at stake when they face Army. And if the aforementioned honors are to be
washed away at all, the Cadets appear as the only remaining opponent capable of forcing
them down the proverbial drain.
Davey-Aragon
Fight Judges
Face Hearing
LOS ANGELES, Feb. 19 (iP)—
Two suspended boxing officials
were directed to appear for a
hearing next week as fight fans
continued a roaring debate today
over a decision awarded welter
weight Art Aragon over Chuck
Davey last night.
Veteran Referee Mushy Calla
han and Judge Joe Stone were
suspended by the California Ath
letic Commission minutes after
they out-voted another jud g e,
Charlie Randolph, and gave the
Los Angele.s boxer a split decision
over the southpaw stylist from
Michigan State College. Aragon
was the 2-1 betting favorite.
Commissioner Everett Sanders
told Davey personally that he
"apologized for this terrible un
fair, hometown decision."
Chairman Tony Entenza order
ed Callahan and Stone, the lat
ter regarded as one of the finest
judges in the west, to appear at a
commission meeting Feb. 24.
Callahan gave the decision , to
Aragon by two points, Stone by
one, while Randolph called Davey
the winner by six points.
The Associated Press had Dav
ey the winner by two points in a
bout that was admittedly close,
hard fought and one that kept
the sellout crowd of 10,400 in an
uproar.
