Upset By JIM KARL Dan Johnston saved his best match of the'year for Pitt Sat urday night to give Penn State the impetus for a 17-12 victory over the Panthers before 5000 in Ree Hall. Johnston's masterful 11-6 deci sion over Daryl Kelvington trig gered the upset and Johnston Oberly added the final touches by pinning Bob Guzik to cap an action-packed evening of wres tling that left the fans limp in their seats. Pitt jumped off to a 6-0 lead but Johnston wrecked any plans the Panthers' "Mighty Mile" quartet might have had for a sweep in the lightweight divisions. Then John Zolikoff used his patented come-from-behind fin ish to edge Ron Pifer, a surprise starter at 147. Zolikoff got a take down in the last three seconds to beat Pifer, 3-2. Thus Pitt went into the heavier weights, their weak spot, with a 9-3 lead instead of a precarious 6-6 tie.

Panther Dick Martin started the evening off on an ominous note for the Lions when he decisioned Denny Slattery, 7-1. Pitt captain Larry Lauchle de feated Tony Scordo, 3-1, but the Lion 130-pounder had Lauchle hanging on at the end. Behind 2-0, Scordo escaped in the third period and shot for a takedown that never came. Referee Stan Mou setis warned Lauchle for stalling with 30 seconds left.
