That experience wasn't any more noticeable than at Recreation Hall Saturday night when the Lion grapplers dropped a 17-9 decision to once-beaten Cornell. Most of the eight Nittany mkt-, men performed creditably before the 5000 partisan fans who wit- . tressed the meet, but even a' greenhorn mat fan could see- the 4 absence of experience in at least' five of the Lion starters. Of Penn State's rune po:nts, six' were scored by the Lions' or 4 true veterans, Captain Johnny Johnston at 130 and lightnir,g fast Earl Poust at 147..
