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

Netters' Win Ends
Long Losing Streak
Penn State's tennis team snapped its 6-game losing streak
Saturday by registering a 6-3 win over Syracuse on the Nit
tanyCourts
The netters' second win of the season came on singles
victories by sophomore Dick Ludwig, Captain Chuck Bible
heimer, John Krall and John * *
Blanck. Doubles wins were turn
ed in by Bibleheimer and Jerry
Carp, and Blanck and Don Mc-
Cartney.
Coach Sherm Fogg's forces
will try for their third win when
they travel to Philadelphia today
where a strong Pennsylvania team
will be favored to put the Nit
tanies back on the losing trail.
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.
Bibleheimer evidently wasn't
satisfied with just one comeback
victory. After teaming with Carp

to capture the first set in their
doubles action against Maguire
and Seager, 6-3, the Lions' top
doubles combination fell behind
in the second set, 5-1.
But they came back to defeat
the Orangemen, 11-9, not only
winning their match, but secur

Blanck paired with Don Mc-
