Temple Sinks
Lion Swimmers
By DICK ZELLER
Collegian Sports Writer
For the next two weeks, Temple University will have
the distinction of holding every pool record at the new
Penn State natatorium. This, is a result of last Saturday's
meet, which found State on the short end of an 82-20
score.
A near-capacity crowd watched as the Lion freshmen
swam an exhibition 400-yard medley relay to open the
afternoon's activities. Jay Lenker, Emanuel Fatseas, Ron
Rickert and Fred Kelsey churned through the eight lengths
in 4:36.0 and familiarized the fans with the four compe
tition strokes.
As the crowd settled back in their cement "chairs,"
the varsity squads took to the pool for a repeat of the 400
medley relay. Temple turned in a 3:58.6 to easily out
distance the State team (4:21.4). Bill Moser broke 1:05
for the first time in the backstroke leg, but it was not
nearly enough to catch the strong Temple quartet.
One of Top 12
Jim Whelan, who, according to State coach Lou Mac-
Neill, is one of the top 12 freestylers in the East, glided
through an 11:04.2 in the 1000-yard freestyle event to set
a Temple school record. '
Gibby lioneysett, Temple's other outstanding swim
mer, won the 200-yard freestyle with a 1:54.4.
The diving was a disappointment on both sides, with
the better performance coming from Temple's Scotty Ban
nister (207.8 points). Ron Manning, a refugee from the
gymnastics team, turned in the best score for State with
144 points. Most of the 1400 fans assembled had a more
enjoyable tine watching the judges fumble with the new
electronic scoring devices.
In the 100-yard freestyle, the State swimmers finally
did something to salvage the afternoon. They managed to
place in front of a Temple competitor. Gene Weber fin
ished at 55.2 and Jeff Pearson floated in right behind him
at 55.7, to finish 2-3 behind Temple's Roy Morris (53.8).
But with the Owls' Phil Deibert left to the fourth place
position, at least the Lions had the satisfaction of beating
somebody.
End Most Exetting
As it turned out, the end of the meet was by far the
most exciting part. In the final event, the 400-yard free
style relay, Jim Whelan did his 100 yards in 49.9. The
time convinced those in attendance that he is indeed one
of the fine swimmers in the area. To lend a fitting climax
to the meet, the State 400 free relay team lost on a judge's
decision after leading the entire race. The unofficial elec
tric clock showd a' 3:43.54 for Temple and a 3:43.58 for
the Lions.
Coach Mac Neill admits that he was "well pleased with
how everything went." He credited the fast times (five
Temple records were set and many individual times were
bettered) to the design and construction of the pool.'
"With the lane markers in and the water level ad
justed, the filtering system is turned off," Mac Neill ex
plained. This, plus the fact that the water depth runs
from six to ten feet, keeps wave action from interfering
with the swimmers. "The water is so smooth that even
after the starts, the waves disperse quickly," he added.
Next Saturday, the swimmers try their luck against
Navy. Said Mac Neill of the trip to Annapolis, "It depends
on what they want to do to us. They could leave us all
thirds." But experience pays, and the Lion squad is getting
plenty of it in its initial year. .

Oh, That Tight Defense
By RON KOLB
Assistant Sports Editor
There was a minute left in last
night's game at Rec Hall. The Stans
field - Persson - Linden - Egleston -
Schweitzer team held a four-point lead
over the Daley - Young - Hamilton -
Godbey - Nichols teams. The D-Y-H-
G-N's had the ball, and Hamilton took
a jump shot from the side.
On the battle for the rebound, of
ficial John Egli blew the whistle as the
ball was tapped through the hoop. "No
basket, foul on Egleston," he said, point
ing an accusing finger.
Tom Daley, the young, sophomore
guard from Lock Haven, protested. "Oh
my soul," he screamed, staring at the
ceiling. Then he shuffled over to as
sistant official Joe Tocci and pleaded,
"Overrule that call."
How Much Time?
But Galen Godbey was already
shooting his foul shot. Just before it
left his hand, Linden yelled, "How
much time left," and the manager re
plied, "50 seconds." Godbey made the
first one.
"How much time left now, 40 sec
onds?" Linden checked, and the small
audience witnessing the hour-long
scrimmage snickered. Godbey convert
ed the second shot, but the S-P-L-E-S's
managed to pull out a two-point win.
"It's almost too soon to start think
ing about our game plan for next Satur
day," EgJi said later. "So we divided
the teams up equally and had a good
scrimmage.'
In reality, it was one of the best
scrimmages the team had gone through
all year. The players were loose, the
dialogue was relaxed, the game Was
intense. Above all, they looked like a
team that had just won three games
in a row, confident of its ability and its
future.
And well they had a right to be

Pitt Falls Easily, 66-43
The Pitt Panthers had a similar con
fidence before last Saturday's game
against the Lions at Pitt field house.
When they found they couldn't pene
trate State's sliding zone, the Panthers
lost most of the spark they had. The
Lions came home laughing, 66-43.
"When you beat Pitt on their home
court, it's really an accomplishment and
I'm quite proud," Egli said of his squad,
which pushed over the .500 mark (5-4)
for the first time since the opening
game. "We played tough ball and prob
ably the best defense I've seen all year."
Third Straight'
It was the third straight game that
Penn State held an opponent to 50
points or less, employing waving hands,
quick reactions and a backbreaking
fast break off critical steals. Their 55.8
per cent shooting average didn't hurt,
either.
"Pitt was a physically tough ball
club," the coach added, reflecting on
the considerable amount of pushing
and shoving which took place all after
noon. "With about eight minutes into
the second half, I knew we had them.
Pitt just couldn't get any shots inside
or off their strong offensive side."
What Happened?
As for PSTJ's offense, it was almost
unorthodox in comparison to the way
things looked earlier this year. Egli felt
the club was just too slow to play any
way but deliberately. Now they run
like the Boston Celtics.
The coach still isn't satisfied with
the set plays, however. "We're still
inept at getting into the offense quick
ly enough," he said. "But we're still
in better shape than we've been all
year."

shot or two. In addition, he led both
teams by snaring 11 rebounds.
Offensive support came from Pers
son, hitting seven field goals, and 6-6
Bill Young, who played his best game
since the one-point Syracuse loss a
month ago. Young scored 14 points and
grabbed 10 rebounds, an accomplish
ment the likes of which Egli says
"should be a tremendous boost for us."
Saturday's battle wasn't much of a
battle at all. With the score tied at
14-14, Persson put his defender, Bob
Petrini, to shame with a one-on-one
layup. The senior captain followed that
with a five-foot hook and then pumped
a juniper to give the Lions a six-point
edge. Young and Stansfield made it
10 straight to just about send the weak
crowd of 847 home for the day.
"This team reminds me of that
first year Bob Weiss and the others
came up a few years ago," Egli re
called. "They're coming along well and
they're the kind of team that will sur
prise you."
Get ready to wish for a few sur
prises, gang, because the success of the
whole season depends on the outcome
of the next two-week schedule. West
Virginia, the Southern Conference
powerhouse, comes to University Park
for a television game Saturday. Then
the Lions return the trip to Morgan
town and three days later travel to
West Point to take on Army. Temple,
Syracuse and Navy follow close behind.
"We're looking for the upset," Egli
said, "and if we can continue to play
our effective 2-3 defense and stay with
them, our progress will pay dividends."
"It's about that time of the year.
The Mountaineers defeated 10th-ranked
Davidson Saturday and cashed in on
a few dividends. This weekend, it will
be a matter of who gets to the bank
first.

S, PAUL - MINNEAPOLIS (VP) Bill Masterton, a
29-year-old forward for the Minnesota North Stars hockey
team, died early yesterday from brain injuries suffered in
a fall on the ice and raised questions about whether hel
mets should be made mandatory in the National Hockey
League.
It was the first such death in the 51-year history of
the league, although there have been many accidents and
near fatalities in the rough sport.
Masterton, a former star at the University of Denver,
was not wearing protective headgear, when he took a nasty
spill on the ice during the game Saturday night with the
Oakland Seals and slammed his head against the ice.
Only a small number of the players in the league wear
helmets.
No one is certain how Masterton fell. He either slipped
or was checked in a high-sticking crowd of players about
25 feet in front of the Oakland goal.
Masterton fell backwards, the back of his head slam
ming against the ice. He was taken from the arena on a
stretcher, his head bleeding profusely.
Circumstances surrounding Masterton's death raised
the question of compulsory helmets. Such helmets were
adopted in the major baseball leagues several years ago
after accidental beanings.
"The use of helmets is optional," said North Stars
Coach and General Manager Wren Blair.
"Masterton chose not to."
"I don't feel it should be mandatory," said Coach Red
Sullivan of the Pittsburgh Penguins.
"I have an open mind about helmets," added Chicago
Black Hawks Coach Billy Reay. "The main thing against
them is they are too cumbersome, too warm and move
around on the head, bothering the player."
Masterton played hockey at Denver University, where
he was the Pioneers' leading scorer in 1960-61.
He played two seasons of pro hockey—with Hull—Otta
wa" in the Eastern Professional Hockey League in 1961-62
and with the Cleveland Barons in the American Hockey
League in 1962-63.
When he failed to make the NHL, he returned to Den
ver University and earned •a master's degree, then took a
job in contract administration with Honeywell, Inc.
