, Jack Flavin didn’t expect to play baseball
yesterday, and for eight and two-thirds innings
he didn’t,' Flavin:sat on the Indiana bench and
picked up splinters while his teammates battled
Penn State in a very close, very tense ball game.
When the Indians were only one out away
from defeat, coach Owen Dougherty finally called
on Flavin, and with, one awkward swing. of the
bat he turned the game around,
What Flavin-did was. bipop. a bases-loaded,
pinch-hit single in the ninth, driving across two
runs gnd sending the unhappy Nittany Lions
down to a 3-2 defeat, their fourth of the year.
Until the ninth Jim Allgyer had held off every
Indiana challenge, allowing just one unearned run.
The lack of heavy hitting support hadn’t affected
his staunch hurling. The eighty had thrown goose
eggs at Indiana since the second, and went into
the last frame holding a 2-1 lead. Then everything
went wrong.
Rally Begins
Howard Gillespie led off the Indiana ninth.
Allgyer had already struck him out twice, but
this time Gillespie came through with a single.
Still no crisis, however.
Then Allgyer hit Nick Sudzina with a pitch
and suddenly there was the crisis. Coach Chuck
Medlar held a conference on the mound and de
cided that Allgyer was tired and had gone far
enough. He summoned his,best man, senior Denny
Lingenfelter, to get the last three outs.
Playing percentage baseball, Dougherty told
his next hitter to bunt. The Lions were expecting
that move. First baseman Mike Egleston and third
baseman Scott Fry mire edged up on the infield
grass and charged with the pitch.
Mike Walendziewicz laid down the bunt. It
Lehigh Loses
To Lion Linxme

• After two straight losses, the Penn State golfers finally
regained their balance and walked away with a 7-0 vic
tory over Lehigh yesterday.
Clouds and cool, stiff breezes greeted the Lions at
their first home match in two weeks, but the conditions
were not enough to stop the win-hungry team from bring
ing their record to 4-2.
• Jim Geiger led the field with a 67 and an 8-and-7 win
pver Lehigh’s Bob Montigel. “That was a fine round under
the conditions,” said State coach Joe Boyle, referring to
the effect of the wind on the day’s matches.
Two putts kept State’s Tom Apple alive long enough
to pull down a victory on the 19th hole. Bob Waldron bare
ly missed the putt which would have put the match
away on the 18th, instead of having to settle for the tie
there. Both players put their drives off to the right on the
first sudden death hole and were on the green with good
position in two. Waldron’s putt hung on the lip of the cup
while Apple's went in for a birdie three.
‘ Ernie Saniga had little trouble in defeating Lehigh’s
Terry Hart, 3 and 2.'
The only other close match of the day was in the
•fourth spot, where State's Frank Guise went up against
■Maurie Sacks. Guise won the 18th to pull out the match,
one up. Only one stroke separated their scores.
Busty Washburn and Don Allan both won their
matches on the 16th green. Washburn downed Tom Lutz,
4 and 2, while Allan, who joined the Lion lineup in the
seventh spot, outswung Harry Tweedie, 3 and 2.
Bob Hibschman breezed past John MacCrum, 2 and 1
in the sixth position to complete the Lion sweep.
The windswept course gave the players all kinds of
problems. Most of the scores soared into the middle and
high 70s. Driving into headwinds and trying to get the
proper direction on the ball proved most difficult for a
number of the competitors.
The best scores for Lehigh were 74s by Sacks and
MacCrum. Four Lions—Geiger, Guise, Washburn and
Hibschman—scored under that mark.
Saturday, State will take .on two teams at once as
Colgate and Indiana (Pa.) will both take on the Lions on
the University. Park course.

Kaat Set To Return;
Key to Twins' Chances
ST PAUL-MINNEAPOLIS (/P) Sometime next week,
probably as a relief pitcher, Jim Kaat will give his left
arm its first game-condition test this season.
How it, responds may determine what the Minnesota
Twins do in the American League pennant race.
Kaat comes off the disabled list, where he has been
since the season opened, next Monday. He tore a muscle
near his left elbow last fall, then retore it in the Twins’
first intrasquad game in spring training.
Nobody will know until he pitches in a game whether
the arm is ready.
“The only true lest,” he said of his arm, “will be to
actually pitch a game. You can do all the pitching in the
world on the sideline and it’s not the same as doing it in
a game.
“There is nothing like throwing in a game. You don’t
have the mental strain that you have when you’re out
there.”
Kaat says lie’s as ready as he can be now. His treat
ment has ended and he’s been pitching batting practice
. and throwing hard on the sidelines.
“I’m on the same program I would be on if I were
starting in the regular rotation,” he said. “Sometimes I
throw 10 minutes, and sometimes it is 20 minutes. I pitch
every other day. That’s what I would do if I were pitch
ing—l’d pitch a game, then skip a day and do some throw
ing and then skip another day and start again.
“I’m ready to start a game, but there is no way you
„ can be in condition to pitch a game until you’ve actually
pitched. You have-to pitch your way into shape.
"I feel no twinges or burning sensation like I did
when I reinjured the arm this spring. The doctor has given
; me no indication he suspects there is anything wrong at
all.”

No Strain

rolled slowly along the first base line. Egleston
tried to pick the ball up and tagJWalendziewicz
as he ran past. The ball slipped looser Egleston
tried desperately to pick it up but he couldn’t find
the handle until it was “much too late to get any
one at any base.
Lingenfelter was now in deep trouble, but
he reached back for that extra effort and at
tempted to pitch out. He struck out the next two
batters and the bench was whooping it up. One
more and it would be all over. But Flavin stepped
in and spoiled everything.
Lingenfelter threw a pitch high and outside
and Flavin just stuck his bat out. The ball sailed
lazily into right field barely eluding Egle§ton’s
desperate grasp. Two runs crossed the plate and
Indiana led, 3-2.
State still had one chance left and threatened
to turn the defeat into ,a victory, but they couldn’t
quite pull it off.
Gene Christina, the clutch hitter of the year
so far, pinch-hit for Egleston. Once again, the
senior came up with a timely base hit, rapping a
single between first and second.
Break for Lions
Ken Barto pushed a- bunt toward third, at
tempting to move up the runner. He was success
ful when Indiana’s third baseman Walendziewicz
threw the ball into centerfield in an erratic at
tempt to nail the lead runner.
Lingenfelter put down a bunt and the two
runners advanced eagerly. But the rally died when
Frymire popped out and Dick Dreher lined out
sharply. It was Indiana’s first baseball victory
ever against Penn State.
The stinging defeat dropped the Lions’ rec
ord to 6-4. Allgyer took the loss, bringing his sea
son mark to 1-1. It was hardly a deserved defeat
as all of the visitors’ runs were unearned.
In the second the Indians had tallied on an

DUCKING FROM a high, hard one is Penn Slate shortstop John Featherstone. He walked
two pitches later. Indiana pitcher Bob Johnston was wild all afternoon but was able to
hold off the Lions' slump-ridden baiters, winning 3-2. Gloving the pitch is Indiana catcher
Howard Gillespie, whose single started the winning rally in the ninth.
Cubs Win Behind Niekro
CHICAGO (/P) Chicago’s six-run out
burst in the fourth inning broke up a duel
of the pitching Niekro brothers and swept
the Cubs to a 10-4 victory over the Atlanta
Braves yesterday.
Joe Niekro of the Cubs was clobbered
for bases-empty homers by Hank Aaron in
the first and Clete Boyer, in the second and
in the eighth. But Chicago routed Atlanta’s
Phil Niekro while batting around in the
fourth.
It was the second head-to-head meeting
of the Niekro brothers, Phil, 29, beat Joe, 23,
as the Braves defeated the Cubs 8-3 last
July 4.
Phil’s first defeat against two victories
was sealed in the Cubs’ big fourth in which
the first five batters slammed hits to chase
the Atlanta starter.
Reliever Ron Reed yielded a two-run
double to Randy Hundley which wrapped
up the six-run inning.

infield single by Walendziewicz, a single by Jerry
Clark and a throwing error on rightfielder Dreher.
The Lions’ runs were also scored without
much stick work. In the bottom of the third Barto
gained first on an error and Allgyer bunted him
to second. .Then Indiana pitcher Bob Johnston lost
the plate, passing Frymire and Dreher to fill the
sacks.
Dave Fore drilled the next pitch into short
center, sending Barto home. One out later, Gary
Kanaskie drew a walk to force in the second run.
The game was probably the toughest loss of
the year for State. Medlar summed it up when
he said, “We just didn’t hit 'the ball. Indiana’s
pitcher wasn’t that good.”
Johnston, who evened his record at 1-1, didn’t
pitch an impressive game—nothing like Allgyer’s
effort or Lingenfelter’s short stint.
State is in for some rough sledding in the next
three days. They play at West Virginia tomorrow
and meet Syracuse in a home twin-bill Saturday.
Something ha? to' give—and quickly. The Lions
had better start hitting that ball. One more tough
loss like yesterday could break the camel’s back.

at 21 yesterday, but the rookie southpaw still
pitched the New York Mets to a 3-1 victory
over Houston.
Consecutive fielding errors by pitcher
Denny Lemaster led to the Astros’ defeat.
Koosman, who blanked Los Angeles and
San Francisco in his first .two starts of the
season, yielded only four hits and struck
.out 11 Houston batsmen.
Lemaster committed his two errors in
the sixth inning when the Mets scored twice
and broke a 1-1 deadlock.
With one out in the frame, Ron Swo

bled his slow grounder. Ed Charles, the next
batter, also hit a slow grounder to Lemaster,

Bullets Lose to Lions, 9-0
By JOHN LaPLACE
Collegian Sports ’Writer
“There’s no place like home’’
could well be the title tune for
Penn State’s tennis team, which
yesterday scored its second
shutout of the young season,
and its second at home. State's
9-0 whitewash came at the ex
pense of the Gettysburg Bul
lets.
“What can ' ou say when you
beat a team 9-0?” asked coach
Holmes Cathrall, who obviously
knew the answer. “Rich Falk,
their number one player, was a
fine tennis player, but th-_ rest
of the team wasn’t in that cate
gory”, he replied, providing
a concise yet appropriate ap
praisal of the Bullet netmen.
Nothing Helped
It is doubtful that weather
conditions or anything else
could account for the demise
of the Gettysburg team, who
were obviously playing over
their heads on the State courts,
Gettysburg managed to send
only one match into three sets
when A 1 Strunk and Joban Run
ne scored their only win of the
afternoon against reserves Mat
tv Kohn and Eob Claraval, who
filled in for regulars Tom De-
Huff and Joe Kaplan in a
doubles match. Despite being
the only Lions to bow yester
day, Kohn and Clai aval man
aged to score a 6-3, 4-6, 6-3
win over Strunk and Runne.
Lion captain Mario Obund"
and Rich Falk provided an
interesting match for the few
fans who looked on. Obando,
who won handily in two seb
6-3 and 6-1, had his hands full
with Falk. Falk's shots fre
quently drew praises like

Today the Lion netmen begin
preparations for a big week
end, which sees them traveling

meets in two days.
Expects -More
At Syracuse, Cathrall expects
to find a much better contin
gent than the one the Lions
faced last season. He attri
buted this to the fact that the
Orangemen have a new coach
and some outstanding new
comers up from last year’s
frosh squad. Colgate, on the
other hand, fields as tough a :
tennis - team as you’ll find in
the East, and their 4-4 tie with
Navy more than attests to the
fact. The tie resulted when
