Chick Werner's crew guns for its
first IC4A team title since 1942.
The Lion hoardmen have come
close many times in recent years,
and the experts are predicting
that this may be the year they
go all the way.
Senior star Ed Moran will

Jim O'Connor will compose the
Nittanies' powerful relay teams.
Coach Norm Gordon will enter
a freshman medley relay team
of Tony Wayne, Pat Cunningham,
Mike Miller and Steve Moorhead.
Coach Werner, intent on corn : .
piling as many team points• as
possible, made a strategic move
by entering Moran in the 1090-
yard run and leaving Fred Kerr
to contend with opposition in the
mile.
"It is possible for Moran to
double in the mile and relay,"
said Werner, "but we seem to
think for points for team score

The game looms as a battle be
tween All-American Don Han

night, and Penn State's DuMars.
DuMars "held" Hannon to 17
points in the previous game.
That was 10 below Hennon's
average. Being that it is Hen

5-0 sharpshooter will go all out
to please his followers.
This will be Hennon's last game
in a Pitt uniform. He bows out

record in the school's history.
