Lions Cop
Second in
Two Relays
By MACK McGAUGHAN
The Lion track team's distance
runners turned in a fine perform
ance as they copped second place
honors in the two- and four-mile
relays at Quantico last weekend.
Ed Moran, Bill Schwab, Fred
Kerr and Dick Engelbrink car
ried the Nittany baton in the 2-
mile relay.
Kerr ran the first leg of the
race in 1:55.9 and as he passed
the baton to Engelbrink Penn
State was running in second place.
Engelbrink ran his leg of the
grueling race in 1:56.1 and as
Schwab took over they were
30-yards behind the leading
Michigan State contingent.
Schwab shortened the gap to
eight yards and in 1:54.5 the ba
ton was travelling the last leg of
the race via Moran.
Moran closed it but could not
quite pass the front running Willie
Atteberry of Michigan St at e.
Michigan State's time for the race
was 7:37.7 and Penn State placed
second with a time of 7:39.6.
In the 4-mile relay, the Nittany
cindermen were runner-up to a
speedy St. Johns suad.
Charlie King ran the initial
leg and was running first when
he passed the baton to Engel
brink. Engelbrink staged a see
saw battle far the lead with
Lionel Stevens, St. Johns, and
was close behind his opponent
Lion 'Nine' Hosts
Bisons at 3:30 Today
Coach Joe Bedenk's rain-hampered baseballers are sup
posed to meet Bucknell on Beaver Field this afternoon, but
the weatherman has other ideas.
The. Lions have been forced to cancel their last two
engagements—the latest being with Rutgers at home terri
tory Saturday—and today if the , * * *
weatherman is correct will be no
different. He predicts a cloudy
day with showers for the Penn
State area—the same expert pre
diction he gave on Saturday.
However, if a game is played,
it will start at 3:30.
Cal Emery, the Center Hall
Clipper, is once-again sched
uled for mound duty. Emery.
who was credited with the
opening day 26-0 victory over
Western Maryland last Tues
day, was Bedenk's choke for
both of last week's rained out
encounters. He gave up but two
hits against the hapless West
ern Maryland crew.
Emery had a 9-0 regular season
record last year and one of those
victories was a two-hit 14-2 ver
dict over Bucknell. The Bisons
have many members of that losing
team back again this year. but
Bedenk doesn't think the Lions
will have an easy time this after-
noon
"Oh, sure, we beat them a
couple of times last year," het
said in practice yesterday (the!
first outside drills in five dal/if.]
"but we were in our hot streak!
then. I won't even guess of the
outcome today—especially since
we had those two games rained
out."
Bedenk will use the same
lineup this afternoon that he
used against the Maryland out
fit and the same one he's fig-
used on using against Lehigh
and Rutgers. That would have
sophomore Larry Fegley--one
of two rookies in the Lions line
up—leading off end playing
second. Junior Ron Hoofer, who
led the hitting • spree in the
opener with three .hits in four
at-bats, bats second and plays
at short.
Ron Rainey last yea'r's leading,
batter (.338) and RBI producer
(17), follows Hoover in the bat
ting order and will probably be
seen in left field. Two-year vet
eran Don Stickler, the Lion cap
tain, is set for his usual clean up
slot and catching post, followed
by center fielder Joe Moore, a
senior newcomer.
