The Nittanies were finally chosen as the last team to com prise the field when the commit tee decided that Pitt and Ithaca had played weaker schedules. Just one week ago, State's chances for a tournament bid looked mighty slim. After break ing off to a fast start, winning nine of their first ten games, the Lions went into a three game losing streak. Army, Navy and West Virginia beat State in suc cession. However, the Lions pushed themselves into prime contention with a 5-0 win over Temple Tues day. The Owls had clinched a spot in the playoffs over two weeks ago by virtue of winning the Middle Atlantic Conference. THIS WILL MARK the 10th time since 1949 that the Lions Fred Good and Don Hackenberg with the help of fullback Ken Stokes. Phi Gam kept the pressure on throughout the match with linemen Frank Carpenter, Craig Rumler and Dick Barton carrying most of the load. The Latinos won the indepen dent crown over Allegheny on a goal scored in the second over time by Cesar Rondon.

Last year, State lost a first round game to Ithaca. The selection of the Lions came in Medlar’s first year as coach of the team. He took over for Joe Bedenk when the long time mentor of State retired in Decem ber. Medlar was extremely pleased with the selection of his squad for the playoffs. “This is a great thing for the team,” he said. "They got the bid by winning games with their hustle and never give up atti tude. I only hope we can make a strong showing in the playoffs.” THE LION coach said that Rider, the first round opponent was rated highly by everyone who saw them play this season. They are reported to have three good pitchers in addition to a well rounded squad. Medlar already has announced that his ace left hander Bob Fenton will pitch the game against Rider. Fenton yesterday was selected as the only State player on the All-District squad. Despite the selection, Medlar said he will not do any experi menting in the final two games of the regular season against Dela ware tomorrow on Beaver Field. Fenton will pitch the opening game and either Dick Noe or Walt Bloom will throw in the seven-inning nitecap.. Are you up to date?

Paul Hummer and Dave Miller, the only seniors in State’s lineup, will bow out against the Big Red as the Nittanies seek their tenth victory against two setbacks this season. BOTH HUMMER and Miller have fashioned noteworthy rec ords this season. Hummer, whom coach Joe Boyle calls his “most improved player” over last sea son, has been a consistent per former all season, compiling an 8-3 log. Tomorrow he will be shooting for the win that will equal his victory output of last year. After winning the, only match he played last season, Miller has made 1963 a banner year. He has captured seven of his 10 matches and was a semifinalist in the EIGA tourney here May 11-13. Miller’s 36-hole total of 147 helped the Lions take the team championship by one stroke over Navy and placed him in a tie for NEW COLLEGE DINER Downtown Between the Movies ALV/AYS OPEN FRIDAY. MAY 24. 1963 fifth place in the list of individual qualifiers. He won his first two matches in the playoff rounds but was finally stopped in the semifinals by Preston Seckel of Princeton, who recorded a one-up decision over the Lion senior. THE MATCH against the Big Red may prove to be State’s toughest engagement of the sea son, Cornell usually fields one of the top teams in the East and this year is no exception. The Big Red finished fourth in the Easterns, one stroke behind third place Yale. But had their players not carded high scores in the opening round, they might well have remained in conten tion for first place laurels. Their scores showed a marked improve ment in the second round, pos sibly because of the warmer weather in the afternoon. It is uncertain whether the matche will mark the Lion team’s final appearance of the campaign. On the basis of State’s winning effort in the Easterns, there is a possibility that the Lions may go to the Nationals at Wichita, Kan sas later in the summer. - AUTO - PARTS • ACCESSORIES Western Auto 112 S.
