MORGANTOWN, W.Va., Feb.
20—West Virginia's "injury-rid
den" basketball team still had
more than enough depth to swamp
Penn State here tonight, 79-60.
The Mountaineers, •minus two
regulars, got more than adequate
games from Gale Catlett and Dick
Dubois
Catlett scored 20 points before
fouling out with 10 minutes to
go in _the game and Dubois led
a full-court press that time and
again stopped - Penn State at the
10-second line.
THE TWO REGULARS who
missed the • game were captain
Paul Miller and playmaker .Tim
McCormick. Miller quit the team
yesterday because of a painful.
foot ailment and McCormick
missed the game because of a
severe charley horse.
McCorMick.hiad been sveraeing
15.4 points per game and Miller
10.4 points going into the game.
Dubois, a nephew of Mountie
coach George King, personally
stole the ball.five times from Johit
Mitchell, three steals coming
row.
