Fighting for a starting berth on head coach John Egli's first Penn State quintet are (bottom row L-r.) Jim Lysek, Joe Hartnett, Egli Hopeful - D espite Warm-up Tilt Setback Penn State basketball coach John Egli took a good look at his entire team in action for the first time last night and the Lion-St. Francis exhibition contest at Rec Hall showed him a lot about a team he's had only in pieces until this week. As a matter of record the Lions lost the contest 78-64, but despite the loss the new var sity boss was pretty , well satisfied with what he saw. He now realizes that his biggest problem right now is time. With his ace center Jesse Arnelle, forward Bob Rohland, and fast stepping guard Bob Hoffman in uniform for only three days, he says he can't expect a top-performing ball club just yet. "But they scrapped like heck," he said, "and despite the rough edges," I think they're going to come along. "These three football players must have time to condition them selves to the game. There's a tre mendous transition from the foot ball field to the basketball court," he said. The. Lions, playing their fifth exhibition contest before the regu lar season opener with Dickinson Saturday night, kept pace with the-Frankies for three and a half quarters be f ore they finally dropped too far into the back ground. Egli substituted freely in an ef fort to get a better look at all his reserve strength and used 11 men extensively during the regulation playing time. Arnelle, although showing defi nite signs of wear and tear from a hard season of football, still tossed in 23 points to capture top scoring honors. Hoffman and guard Ron Weidenharnmer each had 12 for the Nittanies. High man for the Frankies was guard Emil Wandishin with 19 markers. Maurice Stokes, the 6-6 center who, along with Arnelle has been a pre-season all-American men tion, had 14 for the visitors, and was the key man in their fast stepping offensive game. The Lions trailed until early in the second quarter when Arnelle dropped two free throws to knot the score at 18-18. St. Francis jumped back into the lead and held it until midway in the third period when Penn State went ahead briefly. Ron Weidenham-, xner's 25-foot set shot gave Egli's quintet a 40-38 lead. But it was short-lived. The Frankies led by the versatile Stokes, crept back into the lead and then increased it to a wide mar' i: , ----enough to coast through in '• • " By DICK McDOWELL Nine Teams Post Wins In Intramural ;asketball Sigma Nu's high scorer, Ed Ritter, tallied 19 points to gain indi vidual scoring honors in Tuesday night's intramural basketball pro gram.

Six Fighters Win In IM Ring Action Forfeits again plagued the intramural boxing program in its second session of the young season; last.night, as six of 15 schedgled bouts swererecorded. In the first start of the evening, a 155 pound scrap, Tom Hayes of Acacia displayed a troublesome left jam in defeating Dick Jones, Sigma Pi. Hayes continually tied his man up and produced some effective counter-punching at long range. Gerry Uram, Delta Sigma Phi. successfully out-slugged his 175- pound opponent, Ray Carlin, Sig ma Pi, and walked off with a unanimous decision. After show ing to good advantage in the open ing round, Uram appeared to weaken in the second; however, he came back strong in the final stanza and solved Carlin's straight left with a flurry of punches that produced the victory. In a 155 pound attraction, Frank Billera of Sigma Chi received the nod over Jim Yochim, Theta. Xi. Despite Yochim's effective left jab, Billera finished strong with bull-like rushes and managed to lAnd heavily on Yochim at the close of the final round. Walt Hough, Sigma 'Nu, dis played good footwork and some heavy artillery. in defeating his 145 pound opponent, Pete Reagan from Sigma Pi. Hough was in command the whole way and stag gered- Reagan on several occa sions. Reagan showed' a brief flurry in the final round, but. Hough's heavy punching was con tinually finding its mark and he had opened a cut around Rea gan's nose at the finish. Delta Upsilon, always a strong threat sin, intramural- ring action, produced its only winner of the evening in the person of Kaye Vinson. Vinson copped the 1165 pound nod over lanky. Gene Grif fin of Theta Chi. Griffin, a little boxer who alternately 'switched from left to a right hand lead, found Vinson continually under his long lead and taking advan tage of ‘ these opportunities by pounding away with both hands. The final bout of the evening was stopped in the second round when Iry Abramson, Alpha Epsi lon Pi, sent John Cooper, of Chi Phi, to the canvas with a flurry of lefts and rights. Abramson had scored heavily in the opening! stanza with both hands, and had opened a cut around Cooper's nose at the end of the round. Although Cooper began the second round with a two-fisted attack, Abram son again found the range with both hands landing to the head, and finally dropped the Chi Phil with a hard right to the jaw.
