Hetmen Host Syracuse
In 'Crossroads' Match
Penn State’s tennis team finds itself at the crossroads
of the season as the Lions face Syracuse this afternoon at 2
on the Jordan Courts.
The Nittanies, 2-6 this year, need four straight victories
to finish with a .500 log. ★ ★ ★
So far this year Sherm Fogg's
nellers have played below pre
season expectations. With four
two-year lettermen and last
year's number one man, Jim
Baker, returning, Penn State's
1961 tennis future looked bright.
But the Lions were hampered
by poor weather conditions early
in the year and lost their first
thiee matches. Then when they
finally appeared to be rounding
into condition, Baker pulled a
chest muscle.
Now the Lions need a minor
miracle to finish at 6-6.
After Syracuse, State must
face West Virginia, Army, and
Cornell. The Nittanies shut out
the Mountaineers last season
but were soundly whipped by
both Army and Cornell, two
perennial eastern powers.
Before they worry about future
matches the Lions must get past
Syracuse. Tennis isn’t a ‘•major"
sport at either school, but the,
Lions and Orange are traditional!
rivals in the court sport. i
The Orangemen, who didn’t ;
play State last year, have a team 1
that Coach Gene Garrett _ rates!
stronger than last year's 2-7
squad.
Syracuse and State have
Ramos Stars
In Twins' Win
ST. PAUL-MINNEAPOLIS f/P)
—Pitcher Pete Ramos abandoned
his switch-hitting tactics yester
day and drove in three runs in
the Minnesota Twins’ 5-4 triumph
over the Los Angeles Angels.
The Cuban hurler, who says he;
is hitting right-handed to take;
advantage of the wind blowing;
toward left field, poled his first;
homer of the season to tie the;
score at 3-3 in the fifth inningj.
and singled home the winning;
runs in the sixth. Three walks
preceded Ramos' single.
Ramos also turned in a top
notch pitching performance, strik
ing out eight in running his sea
son record to 3-2. He needed ninth
inning relief from Rav Moore aft
er Earl Avcrill led off the frame
with his sixth season homer.
Ken Hunt’s fifth home run of
the season with Leon Wagner
aboard gave the Angels a 2-0
lead in the fourth inning. It was
the first hit of the game.
CLEVELAND (iP) Jim Gen
tile drove in two runs v ith his
10th homer and Brooks Robinson
got three singles in four trips to
lead the Baltimore Orioles to a
4-2 victory over the Cleveland In
dians last night.
Gentile’s fourth-inning clout
gave him the American League
home run lead and boosted bis
league-leading RBI total to 35.
The victory went to Jack Fish
er. who finished strong to win his
first game in three decisions. The
22-year-old right-hander gave up
six hits in tho first four innings,
then retired 14 batters in a row
before Jim Piersall reached first:
base on a throwing error by short-1
stop Jerry Adair in the ninth. |

fared poorly against mutual op
ponents. Both squads have lost
i to Maryland, Navy, and Colgate.
Ross Kaplan, a standout sopho
more, fills the number one slot
for the Orange.
He is followed by Captain Jack
Treicr, the only Orange senior,
in the number two slot.
Bob Raphaelson, Bruce Gordon,
Jeff Leedy, and Hal Lippman
complete Syracuse’s singles line
up.
Stale should be at full strength
with the complete recovery of
Baker from the pulled muscle
that kept him idle in the Nii
lanies' last two matches.
Captain John Blanek. whose
record has fallen off to 4-4 after
being 2-0 early in the season.
Vance Rea, Don McCartney, Whit
Gray, and Don Benner are the
Lion starters behind Baker.
The Lion doubles lineup, which
has been giving Fogg headaches
all season, is still in doubt.
