Baseballers Host Leopards
Lions Play
First Game
In 2 Weeks
By JOHN MORRIS
Penn State, snowed out of
its last three attempts, makes
another try to get back into
the collegiate baseball wars
against Lafayette on Beaver
Field this afternoon at 2:30.
The Lions (1-1) haven't played
a game since losing to Villanova
at home two weeks ago.
But Coach Joe Bedenk does
n't think that the layoff will
hurt his team too much.

Quakers Will Test
Stickmen's Defense
By DEAN BILLICK
Lacrosse Coach Ear n i e
Baer's highly-regarded de
fense will get a real test this
afternoon when the stickmen
meet Penn on Beaver Field
at approximately 3:30 following
the Penn State - Navy track meet.
In four games so far this year,
the Quakers have averaged al
most 10 goals a game. Penn has a
3-1 record and is the defending
Penn-Del champion.
The Quakers have beaten
Drexel, 9-2. Lafayette. 14-0. and
Swarthmore, 11-7, while losing
to Yale. 12-5.
State is 1-1 so far this year. The
Lions lost 16-5 to National Cham
pions Navy, but bounced back
last week against Loyola, 17-4.
Despite the barrage of goals at
Navy, Baer said he wouldn't trade
the Lions' defense for any other
in the country.
Coach Avery Blake has 11 let
termen back from last year's
squad, including the top four
scorers.
Co-captain Frank Mann, last
year's top scorer (15 goals - 18
assists) heads the Quaker attack.
Two juniors, Barrett Freedland
er and Tom Loughrey, give
Mann solid support. Sophomore
Brian Duffy is a highly regard
ed replacement.
Penn also has a stingy defense.
So far this year, the Quakers have
limited their opponents to an av
erage of only five goals Der game.

For Kentucky Derby
NEW YORK UP) Carry Back,
the colt who beat all rivals in
Florida, tackles some new 3-year
old foes today in the $75,000-
added Wood Memorial at Aque
duct.
The 37th running of the
mile Wood will have seven start
ers. All are eligible for the $12.5,-
000-added Kentucky Derby two
weeks from Saturday.
Carry Back, owned by Mrs.
Katherine Price, is the 5-1 co
favorite with Four-arid-Twenty
for the derby. Since 1930, six
Wood winners have gone on to
win the derby.
Robert Lehman's Ambiopoise
appears to be Carry Back's main
rival, but there are several other
worthy contenders in the lineup.
One is Ogden Phipps' Hitting
Away. Another is the Harbor
View Farm's Garwol.
