PENNSYLVANIA Karl Schwensfeler Seeks new laurels FILM LAB Lions Visit Georgetown Links Today The Penn State golf team faces the Georgetown University links men today in what promises to be one of the seasons stiffest tests for the Lions. The Lions, in quest of their sec ond straight win, will meet the always-dangerous Hoyas at the Congressional Country Club in Washington, D.C. at 1:30 p.m. to day. Sophomore George Branish will be the teams seventh man in to day's test. In the opener the Nit tanies used only a six-man squad, but must add an extra man for today's match. Branish earned the right to his position by winning out over Jim Decker and George Kreidler in a special runoff yes terday. Georgetown, to date, owns a 1-0 slate. Their only victory was scored at the expense of the Naval Academy, 4-3. The Hoyat are al ways tough for the Lions, but to day's encounter will be doubly difficult since the match is being contested on their home grounds. If the Lions are able to cop to day's decision, they will have a good start toward an unbeaten campaign. Of course they will still have several dangerous opponents remaining as obstacles in their path for a spotless mark. Navy, Penn, Cornell, and Colgate all boast powerful teams, capable of beating anybody on a 'hot" day; but a win ovet' the Hoyas could provide the spark to ignite the Lion explosion. It is still too early to make any rash predictions, but there are solid grounds for optimism. The Lions' win in the opener was ac complished with solid attack in poor weather. If they can approx imate their first match brilliance today, the Lions should return home carting the Hoyas scalp. 22 Win in IM's (Continued from page six) the semi-final bracket as he trounced Dick Bowe'rs, 15-1, 15-0.
