End Season
Saturday
The Penn State lacrossemen
will close out their 1954 season
Saturday at Beaver Field when
they play host to the Big Red of
Cornell.. Cornell will bring a rec
ord of five wins and 'two losses
into the game.
The Lions' upset of Swarthmore
last Saturday was their second
win of the season as against six
defeats.
The Lions .fell before the Big
Red •in last year's contest, 16-9.
It was in that game that Cornell
exhibited a fine team effort as no
less than ten players contributed
to the winner's total. Unfortun,
ately, the Lions thus far this sea
son have had to relay on individ
ual efforts 'rather than team ef
forts as far as scoring is con
cerned.
Coach Nick Thiel has been
forced to rely almost entirely on
just three men—Al Fulton, Bob
Hamel. and Jim Ree d. Fulton
holds the new scoring record
mark with 22 goals; Hamel fol-.
lows with 16, while Reed, thanks
to - a late-season spurt, stands
third with 12. Next in line is Dick
Klein with 7. Ronnie Youtz 5,
Jim Hay 3, and Dave Arnold,
Frank Locotos. John Griffin at
one score apiece.
Cornell will bring a seasoned
team into town. Six of the ten
players who scored in last year's
game return to form the Big Red's
attack and midfield units. Cor
nel's two defeats came at the
hands of Yale and Pennsylvania.
A mid-season 14-9 loss to Yale
was followed by two victories be
fore the Big Red were beaten by
Penn, 12-11.
Hodges Threatens Mark
NEW YORK, May 18 (?P)—lf
Gil Hodges maintains his grand
slam pace of the past fiye years;
he appears a cinch to break the
National League record for most
home runs with the bases filled
and may even threaten the-ma
jor league mark. The Brooklyn
first baseman smashed his 10th
grand slammer Sunday. •
's' Club Will Meet
The newly organized Univer
sity Club' will hold a meet
ing at 10 tonight in 10 Sparks.
President Don Salthaser has
asked all eligible members to
attend the meeting.
Membership in the organiza
tion is open to all varsity let
termen and managers.
24 Marks Shattered
in 5 Track Meets
It's too bad the guy who first said records are made to be brokeft
isn't around today to see. Chick Werner's Nittany trackmen in action.
The swashbuckling Lions, undefeated in three dual meets, have
shattered no less than 24 records in five different events.
Ten of these marks have re
written the Penn State record
book arid the remaining 14 stand
as new meet•marks.
Rosey Grier and Chuck Block
son, who have been taking turns
winning first place spots •in the
field events. are the chief of
fenders. Grier has bettered his
own shot put record two times
this spring and has cornered two
meet records. Blockson, , who once
took the shot put record away
from Grier, also snared his discus
record and then proceeded to bet
ter that mark one more time.
Both performances felled meet
standards.
Grier's first record breaker was
a toss in the Ohio Relays. He bet
tered that mark against Navy
with a 65" 8 1 / 2 " heave. Blockson's
record was set against Navy and
again against Pitt. It stands at
157' 101/4",
Elsewhere in the field events,
Captain Danny Lorch cleared the
bar at 13' 61/4" against. Pitt Satur
day to establish a new Penn State
and meet record there.
Sophomore Art Pollard already
has blasted three meet records
and. tied the school mark in the
100-yard dash. Saturday he' cut
the tape in the century in :9.6 sec
onds, equalling the Penn State
mark set by - Barney Ewell in 1942.
The Cop.tesville Comet has been
improving every week in both the
100 and 200-yard dashes, and
there's no indication the end is
in sight. He whipped off a :20.8
220 against Pitt, -just .1 second
above Ewell's mark there.
Sensational 011ie Sax, in his
first full spring 'Season since he
conquered in)uries that plagued
him for two years, haas shattered
the 440-yard run standard twice.
His best effort was a swift :48.7
clocking Saturday. He also bet
tered two meet records in the
process.
The Lion mile relay team—Pol
lard, Sax. Dave Leathern, and
Skip Slocum—bettered the Penn
State and meet record against
Navy in its first outing, slipped
badly against Pitt; and then
roared back against the Spartans
Saturday to erase the old mark.
The quartet was timed at 3:16.
Red Hollen, Werner's veteran
two-miler, hasn't been able to
catch Horace Ashenfelter's 9:03
mark, but has shattered two meet
records. Hollen's 'best time was
a 9:25 against Michigan State.
