Play Bullets
Gettysburg Is Undefeated;
Nittanies Seek 4th Win
The power of H-bombs and atom bombs will be of sec
ondary importance to Nittany baseball Coach Joe Bedenk to
day. His main worry will be confined to the problem of cop
ing with the Gettysburg Bullets who will battle the Lions
starting at 3:30 p.m. on the Beaver Field diamond.
Gettysburg coach Ken Bream will 'bring an undefeated
squad to the Nittany Valley. The Bullets have a 5-0 record.
Bedenk plans to use either Keith Vesling or Dave Lucas on
the mound.
Although the. Bullets were held
to one hit by Temple in their lat
est outing, they managed to win
1-0 behind the two-hit hurling of
Sam Mowrey and keep their win
skein intact.
Bream had been using two pit
chers in each game prior to the
Temple game. The Bullets' men
tor had been using each pitcher
for three innings at a time: Joe
Bierly started the first four games
and Mowrey then took over for
the middle three frames, with Joe
Foulk finishing up.
Mowrey's Third Win
Against the Owls Bream altered
his plans and let Mowrey pitch the
distance. The win was Mowrey's
third, of the campaign.
Jack Keiler, Gettysburg short
stop, is rated by Bedenk as one
of the finest in the collegiate
ranks. He picked up the Bullets'
lone hit against the Owls, a first
inning single.
Gettysburg and Penn State
started their baseball rivalry way
back in 1895 and since then the
Lions have won 24 of 34 games.
Last year the Bedenkmen
trounced the Bullets, 23-0. How
ever, Gettysburg is a much im
proved team this year. The Bul
lets boast a fine mound staff
backed by good fielding.
Catching Problem Solved
Catching, which was Bedenk's
No. 1 problem at the start of the
season, seems to be solved. George
Ettenger has been doing a good
job of receiving and is currently
leading the team in hitting with a
.417 average. The Nittany catcher
has done well at filling the gap
left by the graduation of last
year's regular backstop, Bill Leon-

ard. Ettenger has, come through
with .five hits in 12 trips to the
plate and has driven in four runs.
Penn State's slick new double
play combination of Charlie Rua
so at second and Francis Bowman
at short is the nucleus of a strong
infield that is filled out by first
baseman Pat Kennedy and third
baseman Hubie Kline. Russo and
Bowman got off to a fast start
afield, taking part in' four twin
killings in an opening day double
header with West Virginia which
the Lions won, 12-1 and 2-0.
Bedenk will use Rex Bradley,
Ron Weidenhammer, and. Tom
Werner in the outfield. Weiden
hammer switched from shortstop
to centerfield this season to make
room for Bowman.
Tomorrow the Lions will travel
to Bethlehem for a game with Le
high. They will play Bucknell and
Rutgers at home on Tuesday and
Wednesday and will tangle, with
Syracuse in a twin bill next Sat
urday at Beaver Field.

NEW YORK, April 29 (IP)
Allie " - eynolds pitched three hit
less innings in reliefs today after
pinch singles by Enos Slaughter
and Eddie Robinson gave the New
York Yankees a 5-4 edge to end
Chicago',s four-game winning
strew...
The 36-year-old "Chief," nail
ing down Eddie Lopat's third
straight triumph, st r uc k out
four me-I in his brilliant effort.
The Yanks trailed 4-3 going in
to the sixth with Billy Pierce still
in control of the game. He walked
Gil McDougald with one out. Mc-
Dougald stole second and went to
third n Sherm Lollar's bad peg
for an error.
`„ After Phil Rizzuto walked,
manager Casey Stengel called
for Slaughter, a lefty batter, to
hit for Lopat•against the .south.:
paw Pierce. Slaughter slammed
a single to left center, sending
McDougald in to fie the score.
Robinson, hitting for Jerry Cole
man, drove a single into right
to send in Rizzuto with the win
ning run.
BOSTON, April 29 (A") The
Cleveland Indians used Will Nix
on's wildness and a pair of singles
for three first inning runs today
and maintained that three run
edge in defeating the Boston Red
Sox G-3.
The Indians Dave Philley
clouted' a long homer into the
screen in left center off relief er
Bill Werle in the fifth inning. '
Al Rosen, again playing first
base with rookie Rudy Regalado
holding down third,' drove home
three of the winners' runs.
Nixon, plainly showing , the
effects of two rain-caused post
. ponements, walked the first two
batters and then was belted for
a run scoring single by Wally ,
Westlake.
Rosen then drilled a two-run
single to right. He was trying to
stretch the hit and after Nixon
walked two more batters he was
derricked for Werle.
FRIDAY. APRIL 30. 1954
Blue, White
Teams Clash
Tomorrow
Spring football-comes to a close
tomorrow when, the Blue and the
White battle — on Beaver Field in
the annual "Bucket Bowl" classic,
the traditional climax to the 20-
day practice period.
The intrasquad game, scheduled
to get under way at 3 p.m. follow
ing the Penn State-Navy track
meet, promises to be as close, if
not closer than any in the: past.
Win Three Straight
Last year a favored Blue squad
had to* come from behind in the
final quarter to dump the Whites
12-6. The • win was the t h i,r d
straight for a Blue eleven. This
year it figures to be just as close.
Lion coaches have divided the,
squad as evenly as possible and
both teams have their share of
strong points.
Coaching, the Blue contingent
will be Frank Patric k, Jim
O'Hara, and' J. T. White. Opposing
strategists for the Whites are Joe
Paterne, Tor Toretti, and Earl
Bruce. Head coach Rip Engle takes
a vacation for this contest—his
only one of the year. -
Whites Strong
Paterno, :ncidentally, has never
coached on a winning team in
the contest. But this 'season Engle's
backfield aid declares he's got a
winner. And it could well be with
Lenny Moore. Frank Delle Penna,
Bob Hoffman, and .Ron Younkers
bolstering the backfield, and vet
erans Dan Defalco, Frank Riech,
Chuck Sowers, Keith Horn, Otto
Kneidinger. and Captain Jim Gar
rity topping the .list of linemen.
However, the Blue lineup will
include lettermen Buddy Rowell,
Bill Straub. Don Bailey in the
back field, while captain Don
Balthaser, Earl Shumaker, Gene
Danser, and Sam Green spear=
head a strong line.
. Promising freshman will fill the
gaps in both squads and will
probably see plenty of action,
since this will be Engle's last
look at his team until fall prac
tice begins.
