SLIDE. FEGLEY, SLIDE Lion second sacker Larry Fegley slides safely into third base in first
game of Saturday's doubleheader which Lions won, 9-0. The Lions also took the second tilt 17-3 to
give them a 7-1 season's record.
One of Penn State's biggest
problems was solved Saturday
when Ron Riese won his first
game of the year by hurling a
9-0 shutout of Georgetown in
the first game of a Beaver
Field twinbill.
In the second game, Tom Dur
bin notched his second win of the
campaign, handing the Hoyas their
ninth straight loss, 17-3. The game
was called at the end of five in
nings because of darkness.
The Nittanies now have a 7-1
record and play at home tomor
row against Villanova. They also
play Penn at home Saturday af
ternoon.
Although Durbin was impres
sive in gaining his second win,
Riese's performance pleased the
Lion coaches a little more. The
tittle righthander, who was a
6-1 performer last y e a r, h a d
been shelled from the mound in
his first two starts this season.
"Riese pitched a good game and
I think he'll be allright from now
on," Coach Joe Bedenk said.
Assistant coach Chuck Medlar,
who handles the pitchers, was also
Teased with Riese's performance.
Even though he wasn't as sharp
as last year, he still pitched well,
and I think he'll come along."
With Riese strong again, and
Bedenk's three lefthanders—Ed
Kikla, Bill Benton and Durbin—
doing so well, the Lions appear
to have a solid "big four" for
the remainder of the season.
Not only did Durbin win his
second game of the year, but he
went 3 for 3 again, !giving him six

He shared batting honors with!
shortstop Bob Hoover who went)
3 for 3 in the first game. Hooveri
had three singles in that one, but,
went hitless in three trips in thel
second game.
Larry Fegley, who went into
the game hitting .400, also went
3 for 6 and collected four more
RBIs. He now leads the team in
both batting (.419) and RBIs
(14).
The Lions wrapped up the first
game early when they scored one
run in the second, three in the
fourth and four more in the fifth.
They tallied another in the sixth
just for insurance.
Riese was in control all the way,
scattering six hits. He gave up
only two walks and struck out 11.
In the second game, things start
ed out little different as George
town jumped on Durbin for a 2-0
!lead in the first inning.
But the Lions retaliated quick
ly scoring one in the first and
three more in the second as the
Hoya defense fell apart. Catcher
John Adams, who later boomed a
triple, led off the second with a
single and went to second on Lar
ry Beighey's sacrifice. Durbin's
single scored Adams.
Dick Landis walked and Mike
Hader singled, sending Durbin
home. Larry Fegley stepped in
and smashed a double to left,
scoring Rader and Landis. and
the Lions were in the lead for
good. -
But apparently the Lions were
not satisfied as they scored six

Musial Flounders
While Cards Fall
NEW YORK (iP)—ls this the
beginning of the end for Stan
Musial?
His performance in his first
14 games this season seems to
indicate it. While his St. Louis
Cardinals are floundering in the
National League race, Musial, 38,
is floundering at the plate.
The 7-time batting champion,
who has a lifetime major league
average of .340 for 16 seasons, has
collected only 11 hits in 49 tries
for a .224 mark. A year ago, after
hitting safely in his first 14
games, Musial was hitting .509
with 29 hits in 57 times at bat.
Musial has had only two extra
bases, both doubles, this season
and he has batted in five runs.
The only distinguishing features
of his performance were base hits
that thwarted no-hit pitching ef
forts by Jack Sanford of San
Francisco and Glen Hobbie of the
Chicago Cubs.
Musial is not the only top
flight player off to a slow start
this spring. Richie Ashburn of
Philadelphia, the National
League's defending batting ti
tleholder, is hitting .196 after 12
games. Ashburn showed a .381
percentage in his first 12 games
in 1958. He finished up with
.350. Micky Mantle of the New
