Penn State's basketball team
threw a scare into 6800 West
Virginia basketball fans Sat
urday night but apparently
the West Virginia cage team
wasn't as frightened—it over
came an early Penn State lead
and went on to win, 78-63.
Penn State jumped Into an early
5-0 lead on a goal and foul by
Bob Edwards and another goal
by Mark DuMars.
The Lions battled the Moun
ties on even terms for the rest
of the half and were ahead 17-
16 and 26-25. With three min
utes left in the half. Mountie
forward Jim Ritchie drove in
for a layup and put West Vir
ginia into the lead—this time
for good. Three more quick
goals gave the Mountaineers a
33-25 halftime bulge.
West Virginia put the game on
ice right after the halftime break
with another 8-point outburst.
The Lions never managed to
catch up, although they gave West
Virginia a rough time the rest of
tthe evening, according to Lion
Coach John, Egli.
At the end of the game the
Nittanies put a full court press
on West Virginia and narrowed
the margin to 15 points.
"They just had too much depth
for us,' said Egli. "Their strategy
was to play a rough game and get
our boys upset. And they did just
that."

taineers made the Lions fight back

hand, always could put in a fresh
man because of a strong bench.
Edwards and Wally Colander

with 16 points apiece. Edwards
was also the rebound leader
with eight. DuMars was right
behind Colander and _Edwards

DuMars again put on a good

memo:
from Santa
to you
Have you been wondering
what to get for the folks at
Christmas this year? Today
I've got some- suggestions for
the women on your gift list.
FOR MOM: practical, useful,
yet feminine
Why not choose a quilted
nylon housecoat for Mom?
She'll get years of wear from
it. The flatteringly feminine
lines will make Mom feel like
a coed. In pastel, solids, or flor
al prints. Sizes 12 to 18. $8.95.
FOR ROOMIE: warm and col-
legiate
If your roomie hasn't drop
ped any hints for Christmas,
we'll let you know what she
really wants . . . a bulky-knit
sweater. A Dupont orlon bulky
cardigan would really fill the
bill (and of course you could
always borrow it later on, too).
In white only. Sizes 34 to 38.
$B.BB.
FOR SIS: just what she wanted
No'matter what size that sis
ter of yours wears, you can buy
her Helenca stretch tights . . .
the newest fad all over the
United States. Now she can
dress like her BIG SIS. The
tights come in red, blue and
black. Sizes 3 to 6x, 7 to 9,
10 to 16, S, M, and L. From
$1.98 to $3.95.
Some other suggestions:
•Slips—nylon tricot in white,
pink, and black $2.99-
eHose—stretch or regular in
seamless or seam s, knee
length. In tans or the new
color-tints.
*Umbrellas —lB rib. In any
color imaginable $2.98
