Lions Aim for No. 4
By RON KOLB
Assistant Sports Editor
John Egli's had enough
No one linoWs whether it was
because of Holmes Cathrall,
Penn State's freshman basket
ball coach who was at one time
a Marine drill sergeant, or
whether it was the varsity
coach's own doing. Anyway,
th Lions better start getting
aggressive soon or, as Egli
put it, "Some toes are going to
be stepped on."
The 14-year coach has seen
his team stumble lackadasical
ly through the great( portion
of its seven games, only three
of - .which it won. He's decided
that the aloofness has gone too
far. A rigid "get tough" policy
has begun.
Battle Bullets
Tonight is the first opportuni
ty for the cagers to break out
of their rut. At ti p.m in Rec
Hall, they'll, take on the Bul
lets from Gettysburg, who be
fore last night's game with
.Franklin and Marsh it had a
5-4 record.
"We simply must get some
lif , into this team," Fgli said
last night. "The boys have to
get more aggressive .and they
have to start going after some
body. I really think I have
them in the right frame of
mind to start moving."
So far this year, just five or
six players have carried the
burden. Perhaps conscious of
this fact, these same players
could have fallen into a "my
job's safe as the gold in Ft.
Knox" illusion. Not any more,
according to Egli, who the play
ers would do well 3 start call
ing "Mr. Egli."
Must Push Starters
"It's the same answer for
victory that the football team
had," he said. "We had to have
someone in there pushing the
starters, putting the pressure
on them and their jobs. I think
these two new boys have done
it."
. Egli was referring to his two
varsity additions tLi week,
Gregg Hamilton and Mike
Egleston. Both were ineligible
before Monday because of aca
demic troubles, but now their
presence could make a differ
ence.
"They seem ti, have put life
into the second bunch, and as
such, practices have been
much more spirited," the coach
added. "Hamilton is short (he's
0-0) and he isn't an expert
shooter, but he's a h ady ball
player, rugged, and a good
ball handler. Once he's in
face Bullets in Rec Tonight
shape, he could find a place
in the backcourt."
Egli also has hopes for Egles
ton, a 6-4 forward from Elk
land. Both should improve as
they get more and more ex
perience, and as they mature,
so will State's bench, and thus
so should State's record.

Long NCAA-AAU
Dispute May End
NEW YORK UP) Theo
dore Kheel, chairman of the
special Senate Arbitration
Board, promised yesterday
that a decision will be made
shortly on the long-simmer
ing AAU-NCAA sports con
trol dispute.
"You can say that our find
ing will be handed down be
fore the first track meet at
Madison Square Garden Feb.
9," the New York attorney
and widely known labor ne
gotiator, said.
"We expect the principals
to be morally bound to abide
by the decision."

over control of the nation's
amateur sports flew again

vention of the National Col

Plant Distressed
Marcus Plant of the Uni
resity of Michigan, NCAA
president, said he was dis
tressed over the repeated vio
lations of a moratorium by
the AAU and added: ' "The
arbitration proceedings are
not making much progress."
The Rev. Wilfred H. Crow

they will, time will tell. How
ever improvement better be
quick with Pitt, West Virginia,
Army, Temple and Syracuse
coming up in the next six
games.
Before he looks ahead to
those battles, he has to b et by
Gettysburg tonight. And' for the
first time all season, the Lion
players will be competing
among themselves in addition
to the battle v, ith the Bullets.
The southern Pennsylvania
squad suffered a setback re
cently when their number two
scorer, 5-10 Rick Falk, frac
tured his left ankle during a
Christmas tot rnamert game.
He had been averaging 15.9
points per game as a backcourt
ace, hitting 43 per cent from the
field and 76 per cent from the
foul line. Gettysburg coach Bob
Hulton doesn't expect him back
before the end of the month.
Sophomore Greg Gettle from
York will take Falk's place at
guard. Other player., include
four lettermen: 6-2 Tom Hous
er, 6-4 Ross Krumm, 5-11 John
Stott and 6-3 Paul Trojak. Top
prospects on the bend are 6.6
soph Chris Strunk, 5-11 Pete
Mavraganis and 6-4 Fr e d
Smith.
Board Alen
Houser leads the team in
scoring as
a a forward,
,also be
ing rated fine defensive per
former. Trojak is perhaps the
strongest Bullet board man,
while Krumm also adds re
bounding support.
Egli has indicated he'll start
with the same five, including
Jim Linden and Tom Daley at
the guards, Bill Stansfield at
center and Bill Young and Jeff
Persson at forwards.
All this talk about aggressive
ness .and toughness end head
rapping and Bullets is eAough
to make anyone go to the Rec
Hall Coliseum to see the Get
tysburg gladiators fight the
Lions. Who ends up with the
highest score depends on hciw
much spirit the Lion tamer
has injected into his group.
The way he talks, Egli will
probably want to hear the
growls and snarls loud and
clear. ''„

to get stepped on.
