Five Lettermen, Two Sophs Head 1956-57 Nittany Cagers By VINCE CAROCCI F,-uerience could prove a deter r-;,iing factor in Penn State's 7'456-57 basketball outlook since Coach John Egli has only five re ing lettermen around which to build his squad. At the moment, the situation on the Recreation Hall center c'•urt seems to be that Captain hob Leisher. center Bob Ramsay. ,and forwards Steve Baidy and ;Pon Rainey arc going to figure the strongest in Egli's plans this yea r.

Egli feels that they could prove to be a high-scoring unit as they gain the feel of actual compe lion once more. The Lion coach feels that this year's club will have a much stronger bench to depend on than last 3.ear's. edition.
