Looking back over the team's;

accounted for its poor record
by saying that they are a "green

However, Fogg thinks that next
year's squad will be much im

and the possible addition of a
freshman or two.

Lion Golfers Play
Engineers Today
On Bethlehem Links
The Nittany Lion linksmen will try to even up their sea
son's record at .500 when they face the Engineers of Lehigh
at Bethlehem today.
According to golf coach Joe Boyle, the Engineers won't
field an experienced team against the Lions. He also said that
he did not know of any top-rating * * *
Lehigh performers returning from
last year's team.
The Engineers have not had a
very successful season this year
and now stand at 0-4. They drop
ped a tilt to the highly rated
Penn crew by a 6-1 score and
they have also lost to George
Washington, St. Josephs and Villa
nova
In the six previous meetings
between the Lions and Lehigh
the Nittanies have yet to lose
a match. Last year the Penn
State golfers handed Lehigh a
1-0 defeat, and two years ago
the Linksmen won a 11 1 / 2 -6 1 / 2
victory playing match and Nas
sau System. This year's contest
will be played under match
rules.
Looking at the comparative rec
ords, one might think that the
linksmen will have an easy time.
However, Coach Boyle has a num
ber of questions which he thinks
will affect the Lions' chances in
the match.
The number one question . in
Boyle's mind is whether 'number
two man, Dick Burgoon, can play
up to the potential that he has
shown the Lion mentor in pre
season practice.
Burgoon has won only one
- previous match in the five link
outings. This win was in the
Georgetown match which the
Nittanies took by a 7-0 score.
According to Boyle, Burgoon
has been far from impressive in
the other four matches he played.
Last Saturday, against Syracuse,
Burgoon lost a 22 hole match to
Mike Dritz. With five holes left,
he was 3 up. However, he lost his
lead and Dritz tied the match on
the 17th.
. On the first extra hole, he had
to sink a 1 1 / 2 -foot putt to clinch
the match but he missed and
Dritz won.
Boyle still plans to use Bur-

Who will ever forget that
time? The whole town turned
out .. . well, maybe not the
whole town...to see little Bob
by Collegebound off to the
University. There he was in
his hand-stained bucks . . .
pleatless khakis . . . and his
varsity sweater. (Badminton
1,2, 3,4.) Sonja ... ah, Sonja,
his homeroom sweetheart,
sobbed quietly. Sonja had
heard stories about the co-eds.
She was worried.
As the Toonerville local
pulled in, another small cry
was heard. It was Bobby's
mother. Who will look after
him? Who will warm his milk
and care for his shirts? Then
came the unforgettable reply.
Bobby, head high, shoulders
back, answered . . . "I willl
I will wash my shirts." Ah,
smart boy. He'll make the
grade. Gone was the callow
adolescence . . . for Bobby
Collegebound had bought Van
Heusen"Vantage"Shirts with
his allowance. No longer need
he be tied to Mother's apron.

goon in the second slot, hoping
that he will start to play the
game like he really can.
The rest of the lineup for
the match will be basically the
same as was used in the Syra
cuse lest. Bill Davidson will go
as number one man followed
by Burgoon.
Third and fourth will be Scott
Stultz and Roy Altman. Playing
the next two slots will be Haydn
Thomas and John Morton.
The only position that may be
changed will be number seven.
Boyle held a playoff last night be
tween Bob Rutherford, who drop
ped a 6 and 5 decision in the
Syracuse match, and Ed Kormos.
The man who wins the playoff
will go in the match today.
His all cotton Van Heusen
"Vantage" Shirts need not be
ironed. Bobby Collegebound
could wash his Van Heusen
"Vantage" Shirts himself ...
and in a matter of hours they
would be ready to wear. Day
after day . . . far from home
. . . Bobby would sparkle at
college in his Van Heusen
"Vantage" all cotton, wash
and wear, no-iron shirts.
"Now," Sonja cried hyster
ically . . . "I've lost him for
ever. With all that free time
in those handsome shirts, he'll
be the target of every girl on
campus. If only I had passed
bookkeeping I could have
gone, too."
As the train pulled away,
Bobby's mother faced east
and said —"Thank you, Van
Heusen "Vantage," for being
like a mother to my son!"
