GETTYSBURG, Pa., Feb. 12—On the blackboard in the Penn State locker room before
tonight's game at Gettysburg, someone scribbled the following words: "PS 12-3, NCAA-NIT
here we come! Beat Gettysburg." Exactly two hours later it changed to "PS 13-3, NCAA-NIT
here we come
That pretty much told the story as Penn State simply over-powered Gettysburg, 72-54,
zinc! convinced 1,900 Bullet fans that the Lions have their best team in years.

"'Phis is the best State club I've
seen since I've been here," Gettys
burg coach Bob Hutton said after
the game. "They are tough and
have good personnel. This is the
firs! time I've seen Weiss and he
certainly impressed me."
WEISS INCIDENTALLY set a r,
new Gettysburg field house scor
ing record for an opposing player
with his 23 points. The field house
here has been used for only 1 1 / 2 •'
years but the old high was 21,
points.
Lion coach John Egli was
pleased with his Lions' perform-'
ance although he admitted they
were sluggish in the first half.
"It took us a while to get going ;
but we started working well in;
the second half," Egli said. "Hoovq,
er really made a big difference.'
When he got in there he started
scoring and did a good job. Ma
linchak also helped on the boards.
We shouldn't forget these two big
boys."
HOOVER HIT for six points
but he had two timely baskets
and many key rebounds.
The win put State one-fifth
closer to the tournament bid it is
seeking. The Lions, now 13-3,

since 1954.

Wrestlers Eye Win
Over Eastern Power
Penn State's chances of upsetting highly ranked Syracuse
in wrestling this week seem mighty slim, but the Lions aren't
making the trip to New York just to put in an appearance.
"We're going to beat them and that's it," captain George
Edwards said yesterday. "In fact we're going to win our
last three matches."
THE ENTHUSIASM of the en
tire squad is high and even coach
Charlie Speidel is hopeful.
"Although they have really
whipped powerhouses like Pitt
and Lehigh, most of the wins in
the individual bouts were real
close," Speidel said. "With a little
luck, some of the the matches
could have gone the other way
and the team scores would have
been close."
However, the veteran Lion
coach said that the Orange are
still a powerful team.
"They have a great squad with
a strong corps of wrestlers," Spei
del added. "They have good bal
ance and their heavyweights are
tremendous."
SPEIDEL SAID that his Lions
could go to Syracuse and get
beaten badly. However, he also
added that the team is lucky in
that the strong wrestlers from
both teams will meet each other.
"If we can sweep these bouts,
then we stand a good chance,"
Speidel said. "Of course, it's hard
to hope for something like that."
Key bouts Saturday will find
undefeated Bob Haney meeting
unbeaten but once tied Bethel
"Sonny" Greenhalgh at 130
pounds. Greenhalgh handed the
Lion wrestler his only loss of the
dual meet season last year. He
owns a tie with Pitt's great sopho
more Mike Johnson this season.
ANOTHER IMPORTANT bout
will have captain George Edwards
(6-0) meeting Dick Slutsky (5-0).
The two didn't wrestle in last
year's meet as Edwards dropped
to 137 for the bout. Slutsky lost,
5-4, to Ron Pifer.
At 191 pounds, the Lions' Ed
Pohland will risk his unbleinished
3-0 mark against footballer Gerry
Everling. The Syracuse wrestler
owns five straight wins this sea;
son.
