"Late Rally
Gives Tech
66-56 Win
Underdog Carnegie Tech, a
Penn State victim at Rec Hall
early this season, came from
behind after trailing for the
first half and part gf the sec
ond last nght, to upend fav 7
ored Penn State, 66-56 at Ski
bo Gym in Pittsburgh.
The Lions, who lost their
fourth of the year and third
on foreign soil, led 27-23 at
halftime and still retained ,:.q
slim margin after five minutes
had passed in se second half. But
the scrappy. Tartans caught the
Lions with ten minutes left, and
pulled ahead to stay. The win was
the sixth for Tech against seven
defeats.
The Lions' fourth loss was their
worst offensive showing of the
campaign. They got only 43 shots
from the field, connecting on 18,
while the TartanS hit on 25 of 54
field goal attempts.
Center Jesse Arnelle and for
ward Earl Fields were the only
two Nittanies who were able to
find any scoring success against
the hopped-up Tech quinfe t,
which last week upset West Vir
ginia, 70-69. Arnelle tossed in 20
points and Fields added 17 to lead
the :Penn State offense.
The Lions jumped off to an ear
ly lead, and, led by Arnelle and
Fields, kept the Lions alive
throughout the' first half. How
ever, the slug gi s h Nittanies
couldn't shake coach Mel Crats
ley's determined club.
The two teams battled on equal
grounds for the opening minutes
of the second half, but Tech soon
began to narrow the already slim
Penn State lead. With guards Ed
Fieler and Ed Boyd pacing the
attack, Tech crashed, the Penn
State man-for-man defense and
stormed into the lead to stay.
Fieler, hitting from all angles, led
the scoring with 22 points and
Boyd tallied 17.
The Lions were never back in
the contest from there on in, al
though, in several instances coach
John Egli's team looked as though
it might move back into conten
tion.
The Lions move down the street
to Memorial field house tonight
for the first of two scheduled
games- with the unpredictable Pitt
Panthers, showing a 5-8 record.
The game marks the 82nd cage
meeting between the two schools.
Penn State holds the series edge,
43-38.

the entrance march, introductory
remarks by Ernest B. McCoy, Di
rectors of Athletics, presentation

dent body, and the Swedish and
American national anthems.
