Fenn State athletes, as the Nittany trackmen overpowered Ohio State, 98-43.
New meet standards were established in the mile run, 440-yard run, 2-mile run, mile,
relay, pole vault, javelin, discus and high jump. The latter two field marks were set by,

Golfers Defeat Pitt;
Play Bucknell Today
The Lion linksmen took a 5-2 victory over the Pitt golfers
last Saturday and will be shooting for their third straight win
when they face the Bucknell Bisons on the Lewisburg course
today.
Perhaps the key match in the Pitt meet was the win
John Morton took over Tony Pap
alas, 1 up, in 19 holes.
Morton was 3 up after nine
holes. Papalas staged a come-from
behind spurt to even up the match
on the eighteenth.
On the nineteenth, Papalas was
on the green in two and 2-putted,
[ giving him a four. Morton had a
difficult eight-foot putt to bird
the hole and win the match. His
putt rimmed the cup and fell in,
giving the linksmen the match
and Morton his fifth straight win.
Bill Davidson, EIGA champ
and Lion captain, also chalked
up a big win for the Lions as he
took the Panther's Torn Tresse,
2 and 1. Davidson had the ad
vantage throughout the entire
match, being 3 up after nine
holes.
Davidson, losing only one hole
after that, halved the rest and ran
out the clock.
Roy Altman took a close deci
sion from Bob White by a 1 up
'score. White and Altman played
a see-saw battle throughout the
entire match and came up to the
eighteenth tee even.
Both men were on the green in
two. Altman two-putted and White
had an easy second putt which
was approximately two feet from
the cup. His putt rimmed the cup
and refused to fall, giving Altman
the match.
Scott Stultz tok an easy vic
tory as he defeated Bob Hixson
by a 7 and 6 score. StuHz did not

Haydn Thomas had his 4-game
winning streak broken when
he dropped a tough decision to
Ron Schwartzel. 1 up, after nine
teen holes. Schwarzel's short
game and green work was par
ticularly effective. Many times
he dubbed drives and saved him

Both men were even on the
eighteenth tee and halved the
fina - hole to send the match into
overtime. On the nineteenth
Thomas sent his second shot 10
yards over the green to give the
