WEDNESDAY. MAY 9. 1956
Erratic Netmen
Host Engineers
"We've got the losing habit," said Coach Sherm Fogg,
appraising the chances against Lehigh's net squad this after
noon, "and it wouldn't surprise me if we drop another one."
The dispirited tennis mentor who regarded last Saturday's
match against Georgetown as the season's turning point,
claimed that he couldn't possibly foretell how today's match
would go. "It'll be a l miracle if
we match last year's 7-5 record,"l
be said.
Today's cross-court firing is due
to start at 3:30 p.m. on the Beaver
Field courts.
The Engineers will be the first
match in the second half of the
season five matches remaining
after this afternoon's clash.
Lehigh Has Singles Power _
Last year the Engineers became
the second win on the Lion record
when the sophomore pair, Al Wil
liams and Joe Eberly, won the de
ciding doubles point against a
Lehigh squad that had been tout
ed for its doubles strength.
This season, the Lehigh netters
have defeated Rutgers, the only
common opponent thus far, main
ly on singles strength.
The Engineers will be headed
by 1954's PIAA tennis champ Bill
Starlett, who started the season
in the middle of the line-up. A
consistent winner, he has risen
to head to team.
Christiansen to Face Champ
Facing Starlett will be Nittany
Captain Chuck Christiansen, play
ing his first match in the lead-off
position in continuance of Fogg's
search for a winning number one
man.
The steady top three of Ed Seil
ing, Fred Trust, and Dean Mullen
—the hottest man on the team at
this time--will follow in that or
der.
To round out the singles slate
Larry Adler will be reinstated to
the number five spot after sitting
the last one out, and Doug Zuker,
who has looked good at practice,
will handle the number six Engi
neer.
Doubles Teams Shuffled
The doubles teams 'have been
shuffled again by the harassed
Fogg.
Christiansen and Joe Eberly;
Seiling and Trust, an early sea
son combination; and Jack Grub
er and Dick Jacobs round out the
doubles list.
Jacobs, a sophomore, will be
playing in his first intercollegiate
match in an attempt to bolster
the team.
