PAGE SIX Nittany Broken Penn State's eight - game winning streak was broken Saturday when Syracuse top ped the Lion baseballers, 10-6, in the first game of a double header at Syracuse. But the Lions, (11-2), came back in the nightcap to beat the Orangemen, 9-1, as sophomore star Ed Kikla (5-0) won his fifth game of the season on a two hitter. It was the second start in two di* s for the Lion portsider. He stat ted Friday's game against Col gate but only went four innings as wildness and errors led to his downfall Assistant coach Chuck Medlar said that, he thought Kikla's per formance against Syracuse was his best this year. And that takes in his two-hitter against Ohio State in April. The Lion porisider struck out nine and didn't walk any en route to the win. However, the one run he did give up was earned but he still has an ERA of 0.76. Kikla had plenty of help from his Lion teammates as they col lected eight timely hits and play ed well in the field. Shortstop Bob Hoover with a homerun, and catcher Harry Beans with a double had the big blows for the Lions. Hoover's homer came in the sixth with teammate Larry Fegley aboard. It was his second of the season. Beans was the lead off man in the foul th and his double started a big three run rally for the Nit tan ies. The first game, however, was a lot different as the Lions fell apart in the field, committing five errors which led to most of Syracuse's runs. Penn State jumped into an early lead in the first game with two runs in the first. Then in the Lion Linksmen Take In EIGA Tourney at Always a bridesmaid but never a bride.

The Quakers are led by vet eran John Mangan, whom Fogg labels second to no one in East ern tennis play. Georgetown, a common foe, outplayed the Lions, 8-1 but lost to powerful Penn. Pleased with his players' per formance Saturday, Fogg plans to field the same lineup against the Quakers. One of the big surprises Satur day was the performance of Lud wig. Holding down the number one position, he turned back Al, Maguire, 6-3, 6-2. Bibleheimer, starting off slowly, dropped his first pair of games to Jack Frier, but came on strong ly to cop the next dozen encount ers and whip the visitor's third man, 6-2, 6-0. Fourth man Krall downed Dick', Young, 6-1, 6-2, and sixth man Blanck won a lopsided double shutout victory over Bill Seager. Orange mentor Gene Gar rett's lone singles -victors were Dick Morey, who upended sec ond man Jerry Carp, 6-1, 6-4, and Bud Pirone, who posted a three set win over fifth man Gary Moore, 6-3, 3.6, 6-1.
