TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 23. 1960 Luckless Decision Less than two 'weeks ago,' Penn State's basketball team was shooting for a tournament berth, but now the Lions are worrying about finishing above the .500 mark after losing to Syra cuse, 61-60 Saturday night. The loss brought State's record to 9-9 with four games remaining, three on the road. Saturday's loss marked the sec ond night in a row that the Lions came out on the short end of a close ball game. The night before John Egli's luckless cagers lost to Colgate, 84-75, in overtime. "Naturally both games were tough ones to lose," said Egli, "but we played good hall at Syracuse." "It was close all the way and it was the type of game where every play was a turning point." The Lions started making things interesting early in the first half when they came back from an early 20-8 deficit and trailed by one. 37-36, at halftime. State got hot at the begin ning of the second half and with 17:25 left the Lions had a 45.41 lead. Syracuse came back to tie it up minutes later and the lead see sawed back and forth for the rest of the game. The score was 53-53 with 1:45 left when Tom Mossey made a foul and put the Orangemen in front by one. The Lions then brought the ball up court and waited for a good shot. Mark DuMars, who had missed what might have been the game winning shot at Colgate the night before, was called on again, but the ball rolled around the rim and out and Syracuse had pos session. The Orangemen held on, forc ing the Lions to foul. Harvey Satz converted two free throws with eight seconds left and Syracuse had a 61-58 lead. The Lions took possession and immediately called time out to get the ball at midcourt.

The big surprise of the day was the men's downhill, one of the blue ribbon ski events in which the daring contestants hit speeds of 70 miles an hour as they plum met down the two-mile course. Buarnett is a veteran but was COMMITTEES: AN AGONIZING REAPPRAISAL To those of you who stay out of your student government because you believe the committee system is just an excuse for inaction, let me cite an example to prove that a committee, properly led and directed, can be a great force for good. Last week the Student Council met at the Duluth College of Veterinary Medicine and Belles-Lettres to discuss purchasing a new doormat for the students union. It was, I assure you, desperate problem because Sherwin K. Sigafoos, janitor of the students union, threatened flatly to quit unless a new doormat was installed immediately. "I'm sick and tired of mopping that dirty old floor," said Mr, Sigafoos, sobbing convulsively. (Mr. Sigafoos, once a jolly outgoing sort, has been crying almost steadily since the recent death of his pet wart hog who had been bis constant companion for 22 years. Actually, Mr. Sigafoos is much better off without the wart hog, who tusked him viciously at least once a day, but a companionship of 22 years is, I sup pose, not lightly relinquished. The college tried to give Mr. Sigafoos a new wart hog—a frisky little fellow with floppy ears and a waggly tail—but Mr. Sigafoos only turned his back and cried the harder.) But I digress. The Student Council met, discussed the door mat for eight or ten hours, and then referred it to a committee. There were some who scoffed then and said nothing would ever be heard of the doormat again, but they reckoned without Invictus Millstone. Invictus Millstone, chairman of the doormat committee, was a man of action—lithe and lean and keen and, naturally, a smoker of Marlboro Cigarettes. Why do I say "naturally"? Because, dear friends, active men and active women don't have time to fuss and fumble and experiment with cigarettes. They need to be sure their cigarettes will never fait them—that the flavor will always be mild and mellow—that the filter wilt always filter—that the pack will always be soft or flip-top. In short, they need to be sure it's Marlboro—dependable, con stant, tried and true Marlboro. Smoke one. You'll see. Well sir, Invictus Millstone chaired his doOrmat committee with such vigor and dispatch that, when the Student Council met only one week later, he was able to rise and deliver the following recommendations: 1. That the college build new schools of botany, hydraulic engineering, tropical medicine, Indo-Germanic languages, and 2. That the college drop football, put a roof on the stadium, and turn it into a low-cost housing project for married students. 3. That the college raise faculty salaries by $5OOO per year across the board. 4. That the college secede from the United States. 5. That the question of a doormat. for the students union be referred to a subcommittee. So let us hear no more defeatist talk about the committee system. It can be made to work! gy,uoo Mac Marisa& You don't need a committee to tell you how good Marlboros are. You just need yourself, a Marlboro, and a match .. 1 Or If you like mildness but you don't like filters, try Marlboro's sister cigarette—Philip Morris. not ranked among the top con- lenders, Hanspeter Lanig of Germany took second in 2:06.5 and Guy Pe rillat of France was third in 2:06.9.
