7 Decisions
Give Lions
Second Win
By ROY WILLIAMS
SeVen of Penn State's eight mat
men earned point decisions last
night over their University of
Maryland opponents to crush a
formidable Terp squad 25-5; be
fore 4000 fans at Rec Hall. The
victory was the Lions' second
straight, and Maryland's first loss
in three starts.
The Lions rolled up 19 points
in five matches before Maryland
Managed to win five points when
the Lions lost the 167-pound tussle
by default.
In the first five bouts the Lions
won three decisions while Mary
land defaulted in two matches.
Sophomore Sid Nodland opened
by decisioning the Terps' 123-
pound sophomore John McHugh.
Nodland earned the win by an 8-5
'count, although his opponent out
pointed him ,in the final period,
3-1.
, With only 40 seconds left in the
first period, Nodland scored a
take down for two points; on the
bottom at the start of the second
Period he escaped immediately to
lead 3-0. McHugh won a take
down for two points, but Nodland
earned four points to lead 7-2 at
the end of the period.
Slows Down in Third
In the middle of the third period
Nodland slowed down and his op
pcinent earned an escape and take
doWn for three more points, but
Nodland finally managed to es
cape in the final seconds for his
eighth points.
Captain Bob Homan netted his
second straight win by default
just as the second period ended.
Homan, leading 6-2 after gaining
five points in the opening period,
continually worked on his oppo
nent's right arm and hand in, an
attempt to get a wrist lock and the
ultimate fall. When the gong
sounded ending the second period,
Carl Longenecker was prone on
the mat, exhausted.
Larry Fornicola, wrestling his
first meet this season, earned a
Point early in the second period
on an escape and then followed
by riding his opponent for the

Two Sophomores Win
Sophomores John Pepe and
Dave Adams copped victories al
though both grapplers moved up
to the next weight class for the
Terp match.
Pepe scored an impressive win
by defeating the Terps' Captain
John Little, 8-2. Unlike the ear
lier bouts, most of the rugged ac
tion came in the third period.
Pepe held a slim 2-1 lead at the
start of the third period, but then
took five more points while allow
ing his opponent a lone tally by
escaping.
Pepe'; first two points came in
the first period when he grabbed
Little's ankle for the takedown.
Little, fast and tricky, escaped in
the second period, but early in
the last period, Pepe quickly es
caped and remained out front.
Adams duplicated the master
ful generalship he dsplayed in
winning his first varsity match
at Cornell. At, 1:20 of the first
period the Terps' Dean Gladfelter
defaulted when he suffered a
slight rib injury as he and AdamS
crashed to the mat.

Penn Sta Le's slumping basketball team gets another test in foreign territory tonight
and head coach John Egli has indicated that he intends to make some lineup changes when
his quintet tangles with Lehigh University in Bethlehem at 8 p.m.
The Lion mentor said yesterday that his lineup for tonight's clash "may be startling,"
and even hinted that high scoring center Jesse Arnelle may be benched for this one.
The 6-5 pivOt man leads the Lion scoring with 383 points and a 27.4 average but has
been lackadasical in practice since the Lions returned from their weekend trip to Pitts
burgh and Carnegie Tech. ,
Egli did not name his to
definitely in order.
The Lions go into the contest
with a 9-5 record, and will be at
tempting to snap a two-game los
ing streak and break a jinx that
has followed them through five
of six road contests.
Puzzling Season
The Penn State story this sea
son has been a puzzling one. At
home the Lions have been phe
nomenal. They have wrapped up
eight opponents with almost ab
surd ease, topping the 100-point
total three tmes. On the Rec Hall
boards the Lions have averaged
96.2 points per game.
But on the road, the club hasn't
been able to find itself. In six
away contests the scoring average
stands at 68.3, a difference of al
most 30 points.
The Engineers, from all appear
ance should not pose too much of
a problem for the Lions. Coach
Tony Packer's quintet has split 12
contests, winning games 'from
Bucknell, Delaware, Swarthmore,
Cortlandt State, Rutgers, and Get
tysburg. Muhlenberg, Hof s t r a,
Temple, St. Peters, and Lafayette,
all topped the Bethlehem quintet.
Engineers' Lineup
Packer will probably start with
forwards Gene Siegel and Bill Le
Clere, guards Eddie Cahn, and
Clyde Royster, and center - Jim
Gleckner. Royster and Segle have
been pacing the Engineer scoring
all season.
