Cagers Meet
By RON KOLB
Assistant Sports Editor ,
Coach John Egli was sitting at practice
the other day, trying to digest the 65-64
Navy loss last Saturday at Annapolis. The
thought didn’t set well in his stomach. He
had counted on winning the last six games
of the season, and now he had to start
counting on winning the last five.
Eventually, he was asked how good the
Carnegie-Mellon basketball team was, and
instead of quoting the shooting percentages
of every player and the type of offense and
defense it used, Egli gave an honest reply.
“I looked them up in the NCAA results
the other day,” he said, “but I couldn’t find
them anywhere. I just don’t know anything
about them.”
They Played Who?
Neither does anyone else. School press
releases have ceased to circulate. The last
one came about a week ago when the Tar
tans were getting ready to break a four
game losing streak, preparing for a contest
with Adelbert College of Case Western Re
serve University in Cleveland. And no one
knows if they broke it.
It’s conceivable that many people don’t
even know where the school is located. Such
perplexity is understandable, since it was
known as Carnegie Institute of Technology &
year ago. Since then they've merged with
Mellon Institute, so that the new consolida
tion now bears a name that could be mis
taken for a Polynesian fruit.
Carnegie plays its games in the 1,500-
seat Skibo Gym, a shoe box compared to
some of the other arenas Penn State has
visited. Actually, the Pittsburgh school
doesn’t need giant facilities, since the only
team of major importance to face the Tar
tans all year is Penn State.
Records Similar
As close as anyone can figure, Car
negie’s record is about 7-8, the same log that
Penn State possesses. However, that’s about
as far as similarity goes between the two
squads.
The Tartans find their most interesting
competition against such' mini-schools as
Grove City, Thiel, University of Rochester,
Case Tech, Geneva, Wooster, St. Vincent,
Waynesburg, Westminster and Allegheny.
Pitt is also on the schedule, but it shouldn’t
be. Two weeks ago the Panthers laughed
through a 40-point win.
But the fact that the Lions are giants
on a schedule of midgets is just the reason
Egli worries about games like tonight’s 8:15
contest.
“A win by Carnegie would make their

VOTE
today
season a complete success,” he said. “When
you’re not looking, they can snake-bite you.
We have to go up there with real determi
nation if we want to win.”
Of course, the coach would be crazy to'
say that any game is in the bag. Egli felt
his team was rather complacent about the
Navy game too, until the Middies decided
to win one for the home crowd.
“Our players have gotten a bit self
satisfied, almost apathetic toward the game,”
Egli added. “But I keep telling them that
any team that beats Temple and Syracuse
should beat anyone else. We should win all
the rest of our games.”- t
To fall to a team like Carnegie would
take a wave of complacency that is next to
total slumber. Despite the letdown at An
napolis, State is too good a team to be
overrun by a patsy. They’ve come a long
way since Bucknell clouted them early in
the year. i
. Probably no one is pulling for State
more than the forgotten Lions—the reserves.
It’s been months since anyone beyond the
top seven players have touched a ball dur
ing regulation play. The opportunity is here
to run up a big score early, giving the sec
ond string a chance to write home about
the shots they just missed and the hard
nosed battles they waged.
It's Up to Them
That part of the evening is up to num
bers 1 through 7. Jeff Persson continues his
team leadership in both scoring (18 points
a game) and rebounding (132) as he seems to
mellow with age. Tom Daley (13.8) is sec
ond in scoring while Bill Young (114) fol
lows the captain in rebounds. Bill Stans
field (12.2, 100) and Jim Linden (7.7, 46)
will round out the top five. Again, reserves
Galen Godbey (8.0, 90) and Gregg Hamil
ton (7.0, 14) provide first-line bench
strength.
Carnegie’s lone' pz’ide is 6-5 Mark Lang,
who averages about 17 points per game in
the pivot and hauls down about 14 rebounds
each time out. Beyond Lang, the Tartans
are weak. Forwards John Meister and Barry
Hummel are both only 6-2, while guards
Neil Houser and Leigh DeHuff barely reach
6-0.
State is now 7-8, and they’d like nothing
better than to finish the year 12-8. At least
Egli would like to, finish his career that way.
As for the players themselves, he’s not so
sure. He said he thinks some of them be
lieve the season’s over right now.
But how can they pass up one slice at
the Carnegie Mellon, Pittsburgh’s answer to
the Polynesian Papaya?

■ Tonight the Penn State swimmers will
be up against one of the top teams in the
nation as they face the University of- Mary
land, at College Park,
The Terrapins have three defending
Atlantic Coast Conference champions and
one championship relay team. Phil Denke
vitz won two events in the 1965 ACC meet
and has returned this year to bolster the
team. '■ ' ,
Amqng their nine lettermen are three
who ■ have a good' chance of placing in .the
NCAA championships. Dave Heim, a junior
freestyler, holds the varsity record in 1000-
yard freestyle wtih a 10:40.9. He was the
top. freestyler from the East in last year’s
national championships. Heim also holds the
NCAA frsehman record in the 500-yard
freestyle.
Most Versatile
Doug Springer has been called the most
versatile swimmer in Maryland history. His
2:02.0 is a varsity record in the 200-yard
individual medley and he holds the 200-
yard breaststroke record with a 1 2:17.3.
Springer is considered a possible finalist in
the nationals.
Maryland started intercollegiate swim
ming in 1956, and, since then has captured
three ACC championships and tied for three
more. In eleven seasons, coach Bill Camp
bell has led the Terrapins to 104 victories
and 27 defeats.-
The State philosophy for tonight’s meet Bob Liken will appear on both the one

down that time. With an eye for a big be
ginning and end, coach Lou Mac Neill will
have his best swimmers in the two relays.
Both teams will be looking for their best
times of the season.
Bill Moser will make his debut in the
butterfly tonight as he goes after the record
set by Jeff Eisenstadt last ..week. Moser
usually is seen in the backstroke for the in
dividual events, but is out to show that he
has some versatility.
Erich Mehnert and Gene Weber will
lead the Lion effort in the freestyle events,
Mehnert in the distance swims and Weber
in the relays and shorter individual free
style events.
Filling out the State freestyle contin
gent are Jim Conrad and Jeff Pearson. This
group makes the freestyle the' strongest
event for the young Lion squad.
Ron Manning will have to prove tonight
that his 171.3 performance last Saturday
was his real ability and not an accident.
With a few more scores like that, he will
be able to compete against most of the divers
in the East. Maryland will counter in the
diving with freshman Don Dolce; Ron Hoff
man, a junior considered a possibility for
the nationals; and junior Pat Wells who may
be an ACC finalist. Any two of those three
should be able to dominate the diving event.

MORNINGS AT SEVEN... AND
THERE’S NOTHING YOU CAN DO
ABOUT IT
Any man who says morning is the best time of day is
either a liar or a meadow lark.
There is only one way to make morning enjoyable:
sleep till noon. Failing that, the very best you can do is to
make morning tolerable. This, I am pleased to report, is
possible if you will follow three simple rules:
1. Shave properly.
By shaving properly I mean shaving quietly. Don’t use
a blade that whines and complains. Morning being a time
of clanger and anger, use a blade that neither clangs nor
angs. Use a blade that makes no din on your chin, no
squeak on your cheek, no howl on your jowl, no rip on
your lip, no waves while it shaves. Use, in short, Personna
Super Stainless Steel Blades.
I have been shaving for 71 years (not too impressive
until one considers that I am 49 years old) and I am here
to tell you that the quietest blade I know is Personna. I not
only shave with Personna, but I also admire it. Old vir
tues reappear in Personna; old values are reborn. Per
sonna is a modest blade, an undemanding blade. Personna
does not rasp and tug, yelling, “Hey, lookit me!” No, sir,
not Personna! Silently, respectfully, unobtrusively, Per
sonna whisks your whiskers with nary a whisper. It
shucks your soil and stubble without toil and trouble.
Why, you hardly know it’s there, this well-bred Personna
blade, this paragon of punctilio.
Moreover, this crown of the blade-maker’s art, this
epitome of epidermal efficacy, is available both in Double
edge style and Injector style. Do your kisser a favor: get
some.
2. Breakfast properly.
I assert that a Personna shave is the best of all possible
shaves. But I do not assert that a Personna shave, brac
ing though it may be, is enough to prepare you for the
hideous forenoon ahead. After shaving you must eat an
ample breakfast.
Take, for example, the case of Basil Metabolism, a soph
omore at MM.I. Basil, knowing there was to be an inspec
tion by the Commandant one morning, prepared by stor
ing up energy. He recognized that coffee and juice would
not sustain him, so he had a flitch of bacon, a clutch of
eggs, a batch of bagels, a notch of ham, a bunch of butter,
a swatch of grits, a hutch of honey, a patch of jelly, a
thatch of jam, a twitch of pepper, and a pinch of salt.
Thei(L_ _ „qua.. When
the Commandant arrived, Basil, alas, was so torpid that
he could not raise his bloated arm in a proper salute. He
was, of course, immediately shot by a firing squad. Today,
a perforated man, he earns a meagre living as a collander
in Cleveland.
3. Read properly.
Always read the paper at breakfast. It inhibits bolting.
But do not read the front page. That is full of bad, acid
making news. Read a more pleasant part of the paper—
the Home and Garden section, for example.
For instance, in my local paper, The Westport Peasant,
there is a. delightful column called “Ask Harry Home
spun” which fairly bristles with bucolic wisdom and
many an earthy chuckle. I quote some questions and
answers:
Q: 1 am thinking of buying some power tools. What
should I get first? /
A: Hospitalization.
Q: How do you, get rid of moles ?
A: Pave the laion.
•Q: What is the best way to put a wide car in a narrow
garage?
A: Butter it.
Q: What do you do for elm blight?
A: Salt water gargle and bed rest.
Q: What can 1 do for dry hair?
A: Get a wet hat.
Personna’s partner in shaving comfort is Burma •
Shave, regular or menthol. Together, Personna and
Burma-Shave make a considerable contribution toward
forenoon survival. .
