PAGE SIX Lions Club 33 Hits,Lions Enter EIGA Tourney Tomorrow In 18-4, 17-2 Wins Penn State's baseball team put on one of the greatest hitting exhibitions in the past decade yesterday when it swamped Georgetown University-18-4, 17-2—in a double header at Washington, D.C., for its 11th and 12th wins. The Lions smashed 17 h Jim Lockerman banging seve, the Ntttany hitting in the twin bill. Guy Tirabassi and Bob McMul len got the grand slams in the first game. Lockerman also hit home run in the first, with Jack McMullen and Lou Schneid er hitting one each in the night cap. Hidden under the barrage of hits were the pitchers, who had a relatively unimportant job. Ron Smith started the first game but was relieved in the sixth inning by Pd. Drapcho, who allowed the Hoyas only one hit in the four innings he hurled. He fanned sev en. Smith. who was the winning pitcher, gave up six hits and two earned rugs, while striking out one and walking one. He is 3-0 on the year. The two runs off Drapcho were unearned. Peace Allows 6 Hits Sophomore Ralph Peace, in his: first varsity assignment, gave' Georgetown only six hits in they second game, struck out five, ' while walking three. He also drove in four runs with two hits.l The ironical significance of they first game was the fact that the, Lions were leading only 3-2 going into the eighth inning. In that disastrous inning they came upi with six runs—four on McMul len's grand slam. To add injury to insult they sent nine jilayersl scampering across the plate in the ninth frame. Four of these' runs were scored on Tirabassi's grand slam. Lions Tallied 3 in Third 1 The Lions had tallied three in' the third and Georgetown one in the fourth and fifth innings and two in the ninth before the onslaught came. Every batter in the lineup had at least one hit with the excep tion of Smith, and six had two hits or more. In the nightcap history repeated itself. All but Tirabassi garnered hits with six players getting at least two or more hits. Lockerman had four in this game. Cut Loose for 17 Runs After a scoreless first inning in the nightcap the Lions cut loose with three runs in the sec ond, and then proceeded to hu miliate the Hoyas pitchers, scor ing four in the third, one in the fourth, two in the fifth, four in the sixth, awl three in the seventh. Jack McMullen and Peace drove in four runs each, while Gary Miller drove in three. McMullen's homer came with two on. Errors, which usually dominate high-scoring ball games, were scarce in the opener. The Lions committed only two, while the Hoyas committed one. The second game was a complete reversaL with the Lions having five and the host team four.

Since the Lion-Indian series began back in 1917, Swarthmore has managed to upset the Nittanies more times than any other team. On one oc casion, several years ago, the "favored" Lions lost six straight games to the Indians. However, the situation is a lit tle different this year.

The Lions' foremost competi rtion for the title is expected to come from Yale, who has won the crown for three years run ning, and Georgetown. The lioyas beat the Lions, 5-2, in a dual meet earlier in the season. The Lions last won the Eastern crown in 1948, after an extra-hole playoff with perennial champion Yale. The tournament rules state that the team championship is decided by totaling the strokes of the four ' best scorers on each team. As in past years this is expected to be a [disadvantage to the Nittany links men because of their complete balance throughout the lineup. Nittany coach Bob Rutherford [ explained that "in a short tourney like this it's better to have two or three really good players than six who consistently shoot around 75 or 76." 'Of course the Nittany dual meet record shows that for match play the opposite holds true. We are interested in acgt. Ang the engineers and scientists for the staff of our Research Laboratories.
