Basketball coach John Egli
is casting a cautious glance
toward New York State this
week as his roaring Nittany
Lions move into the crucial
stage of their 25-game sched
ule with hopes of dumping
Syracuse and Colgate in fol
low-up victories to their 91-70
thumping of Washington and
Jefferson Saturday night.
The Lions topped the Presi
dents at Washington, Pa., gaining
their 15th win of the campaign
and sixth victory in succession.
They meet the two New York
schools Friday and Saturday.
Was Important Win
Although the Presidents, tra
ditional hardwood rivals, were
probably not the best team the
Lions have beaten this year, the
triumph was one of the sweetest
of the campaign for Egli's quintet.
It represented the Nittanies' first
really decisive victory on the
road, although it was their fourth
straight win on .a foreign court.
(They had won three in overtime
play.)
And with the National Col
legiate Athletic Association eye
ing the rampaging Lions, the vic
tory probably went a long way.
The Presidents represented a very
respectable small basketball school
and they found themselves com
pletely outelaSsed by the over
powering Lions.
Lead by 24 Pointe
With Jesse Arnelle leading the
scoring, the Lions unloaded a first
half salvo that gave them a 24-
point lead at the intermission.
The Big Lion center moved ever
nearer to the magic 2000 point
mark, lacking that total now by
only 31 points.
The Lions jumped off to an
early lead when, after coach Stan
Daley's team covered Arnelle
heavily in the pivot, Ron Weiden
hammer, Bob Hoffman, and Earl
Fields hit on five consecutive set
shots from outside the Prexy zone
screen. Then when the President
defenders moved out to stop Egli's
set shot artists, Arnelle took over
and swished seven consecutive
field goals.
The Lions connected on 80 per
cent of their shots in the first
half and coasted home after lead
ing . 54-26 at the intermission.

Gym Teams
Score Wins
Over Navy
Penn State gymnasts entered
EIGA competition on a sweet note
Saturday at Annapolis, scoring
two decisive victories. The. Lion
varsity chalked up its second
win of the still young season via
a 53-43 victory over the Middies
and the Nittany frosh registered
a sound 56-40 verdict at the ex
pense of the Annapolis Plebes.
The varsity performers entered
the meet with what Lion coach
Gene Wettstone tabbed as, "hard
ly a chance to win."
But the Nittanies reached into
the proverbial bag and pulled out
a surprise trick, taking first place
in all six events.
Once again Wettstone called on
his versatile captain, Karl
Schwenzfeier, to handle most of
the Lion assault, and he respond
ed with three victories.
The Lion gym artist remained
undefeated on two events, paral
lel bars and flying rings, and
turned in a surprise first place
performance on the side horse.
Bill Paxton on the mats, Dion
Weissend on the horizontal bar,
and Skeets Haag on the rope
rounded • the remaining list of
Penn State winners.
Highly-rated Sailor c a p t a i n,
Burt Munger, set the pre-meet
predictions haywire by falling be
hind Paxton in the tumbling
even t. Schwenzfeier's winning
routine and Skip Heim's second
on the horse came as an upset
one-two decision over the Mid
dies' Arnold brothers. The duo
was the Saturday afternoon choice
to walk away with top honors in
its specialty.
With Weissend first and Tony
Cline third on the H-bar, and Don
Rehm's fourth on the twin bars,
the Lions held a commanding 39-

THE WAIN COLLEGIAN STATE COLLEGE DMINSVIVANIA
Lions Host Army, Lehigh
In Final Home Meets
Home fans will get two opportunities to see a full compli
ment of Nittany wrestlers in action during the next two
weekends when Army and Lehigh visit the Lions who polled
their third and most recent win at Syracuse Saturday, 22-8.
The Lions won six of eight bouts. with four of the wins
coming by decisions. Only sophomores Dave Adams and Joe
Krufka managed to push five-pointers into the Lions total
score.
Syracuse won only twO bouts. Its first was a five-pointer
earned by Eastern and National 157-pound champ Ed Rooney
who pinned senior Len McNeal after, the Lions held a corn
manding 14-point lead.
After McNeal, wrestling his
first varsity meet, lost, his team
mate Joe Humphreys, seeing his
first action on the mats since the
1953-54 season, dropped a rugged
5-3 decision to Bob Smith. The
Orange 167-pounder emerged with
his fifth straight victory as a re
sult of time advantage in the
final period after both men traded
points earlier in the match.
Wins in Usual Weights
The Lions' victories and points
came in the usual weights. Sid
Nodland (123) and seniors Bob
Homan, 130-pound captain, and
Larry Fornicola (137) each won
decisions to give the Lions a 9-0
lead.
Nodland• handed Don Clark his
second straight defeat 9-5 and
Fornicgla shutout Tommy Xing,
3-0. It was Fornicola's third
straight win compared to King's
third loss in five tries.
Homan turned in the most out
standing point decision of the
meet with a conquering 13-4 score
over winless Win Rushell. Homan
scored double near-falls in tabu
lating his lop-sided victory score.
The Lions' final three wins net
ted them 13 points. Adams, 147-
pounder, and one of three sopho
mores on the Nittany squad, won
his fourth straight by pinning
Ron Marinelli at 2:55 with a figure
four hold in the first period after
the Lion grappler led 3-0.
After the Lions lost the 157-
and 167-pound bouts and their at
tempt for a whitewash, Krufka
shoved his team into a 19-8 lead
with a pin at 2:30 over Pedro Gon
zalez.
In the heavyweight division
once-beaten Bill Oberly had to
muster his reserves to cut his op
ponent's streak at three wins and

Hi Folks,
It's sure good to see you again. Has it been a blue Monday for
most of you? Has everything gone wrong? Well I have good
news for a treasured few, today anyway, and I hope it will
be more than I think. But in this field mass is not important—
it is Quality. I'm afraid you
Brownie fans will not find this too
interesting but just in case you
have been thinking about that bet
ter camera it may pay to listen.
Now then, all you big, beautiful
advanced amateurs with - the nice,
shiney 35mm Leica's, Exakta's,
Ciro's, Argus', etc.—by now you
have realized that you spent the
family bankroll on the camera and
have very little left for upkeep.
(I'm kidding of course). but don't
worry, because starting as ,of now
The Film Lab is - featuring a new
department (one corner of one shelf
in our huge store becomes a department by the flick of a type
writer). Yes siree bub! You can now buy Ansco's Ultra-Speed,
Pan film, Daylight reading of 100, for just 50c for 36 ex
posures. You see, we had so many cartridges laying around
from developing all your precious little films that, we decided
to put them to work. So now we are buying bulk film and
loading it for you. Ain't that nice? 36 exposures for just 50c. It
is unbelievable aint it? If your interest proves sufficient dear
friends, we will soon have all popular films available in bulk
at this time, at the same price. But Jakie boy, it don't stop here
after you shoot this dirt-cheap film we will develop it ,for
you for just 7c for a beautiful 3 1 / 2 x4 print. Then, we will
Put it in a lovely Penn State folder at no extra charge. How
ever, if this .is too cheap for you fancier fellows, or if you
are an artist, then we have our CUSTOM 35mm developing.
For you we will finish your prints on 4 1 / 2 x5 matte aurface
paper with a wide margin and beautifully embossed. This
you have to see to appreciate. And it is only 15c a print. By
now you are so completely overwhelmed that I had better
say so long and we are all waiting for the rush. Be seem' you.
