the Pitt Frosh, Saturday. That y
was our worst game of the year. jLjjif '■ -

"DuMars was the only threat It-//. gjHI
we had and he was off on his , ; ,y IjMSSKB
shooting. John Stanford's services *
were definitely missed. Gross was WaBBPB
fairly good—he made the first MHgM'*
eight points, but then tired. Bob
Mintz looked good and hustled
when he was put in the game,"
Swegan added. '
Penn State cage fans can ex- "..5?
pect a line-up shake-up for to- '
night’s tilt The only sure starters |
are Mark “The Magician” Du-i
Mars and Bill Gross. The other
posts will have to be filled by
three of the following: Biff Nay

Dick Whitteker and John Stan

The starting five will depend
ion the outcome of yesterday's
practice session. Swega'n may not
decide on a starting five until

iagainst the same problems they
have been faced with all season.

said a meal at Duffy's was
more than delicious. It was
romantic!
The quiet, historic atmo

the food. Drive out for dinnex
