PAGE TEN Powerful Rutgers Team Beats Lacrossemen,lsl —Dilly Collegian Photo by Lawrence Epstein ANOTHER INTERCEPTION BY Rutger's ace midfielder Ross Farquharson steps a Lion offensive chance. Lion stickmen running for the ball are Dick Bullock (far left) and Dick Weeden (23). The Lion lacrossemen dropped their second straight home game on Beaver Field Saturday and now post a 2-4 season record. The second loss came at the hands of an experienced Rutgers crew that had an easy day of scoring a 15-2 win over the home team. * * * Coach Earnie Baer was the first to admit the obvi o u s, "Our attack was weak and will continue to be our weak spot this year without Bill Hess in there." (]less is the senational Long Island southpaw who broke the Lion scoring mark with 41 goals as a sophomore and re-set his own record as a junior with an output of 49. In only two years of corn petiiion he also set the Lion career scoring mark of 90 goals and added three more in the only game he played this year. He was pirmanently sidelined for the season and his collegiate career in that one game with a broken kneecap.) But Baer didn't have to make excuses for his boys as they were playing one of the top units in the country in Rutgers. The Scarlet crew handled the ball expertly and only on very rare occasions did they make the amateurish mistakes of in experienced stickmen. Baer said after the game that he expects the Lions to improve with practice and experience— practicularly since they have com pleted the tough part of their schedule which saw them drop three to the nation's best—Mary land, Navy and Rutgers. After the Lions take a week end visit with teams of their cali bre—at Hobart on Friday and at Syracuse on Saturday—they will end the season with five straight home games. After watching the Rutgers forces score five easy goals in the first period, Dick Weeden scored the Lion first goal as he THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE.

Previously, the team was sur prised when Dave Wilkinson, a preViously unknown second team goalie, scored a goal. It happened this way: the ag gressive junior, who was playing his first game on the attack, spot ted the ball in front of the net after the goalie had .blocked the shot. He kicked it in for the ap parent score, but in the process was legally knocked into the crease (circular zone around the goal) andthe goal was disallowed. But Wilkinson helped make up for it later as he screened a Rut gers defenseman out of position and Harry Brown put in an open shot to put the Lions back in the game—temporarily. Hurry! Hurry! ...
