that he is able to run qualifying per

Canadiens capture opener
MONTREAL (AP) Defenseman Guy Lapointe
netted a 25-foot slap shot with just 1:92 remaining
last night, giving the Montreal Canadiens a
comeback 4.3 triumph over the Philadelphia Flyers
in the opener of their National Hockey League final
playoff series.
Lapointe took a pass from left wing Steve Shutt
and broke across the Philadelphia blue line with
Guy Lafleur against Flyers' defenseman Jim
Watson. He faked a pass to Lafleur, then blazed his
shot past Philadelphia goalie Wayne Stephenson to
win a game in which the Canadiens had trailed 2-13.
Montreal goalie Ken Dryden saved the victory
with a lunging toe stop on a Jim Watson shot in the
frenzied final seconds.
Jacques Lemaire had brought the Canadiens even
for the second time in the contest when his 30-foot
backhander with 9:58 left tied the score 3-3. Just
under five minutes earlier, Philadelphia defen
semen Larry Goodenough had broken a 2-2 tie by
sending a 35-foot power play wrist shot past
Dryden's late-kicking right leg.

and Ross Lonsberry, had taken a 2-0 first period

Blue-White features big offense
By JERRY LUCCI
Collegian Sports Writer
It's funny how things change in one
year's time.
At last year's Blue-White scrimmage,
the fans dozed through a 3-0 sleeper and
afterwards loudly complained about the
lack of offense.
This year everyone enjoyed the of
fensive antics as the Blue team bested
the White 35-29 and then when the smoke
cleared, those same fans chastized the
defense.
The fans cheered the long runs of
newcomers Kevin Thrower and Bob
Torrey, and the impressive passes of
soph-to-be quarterback Chuck Fusina,
who continues to keep the pressure on
ailing senior John Andress. Fusina hit on
20 of 35 passes for 289 yards and on
touchdown. But what, the fans asked,
happened to the Big D? Mike Reid, Jack
Ham, and Mike Hartenstein ... where
have you gone?
"We didn't play well defensively,"
coach Joe Paterno said after the game.
"Our lack of depth shows. When you
don't have that depth it's hard to divide
the tehm evenly." There are other

session stormed back on tallies 2:26 apart by Jim
Roberts and Larry Robinson in the middle period.
Leach's 16th goal of the playoffs had gotten
Philadelphia started just 21 seconds after the
opening faceoff. It was the 10th consecutive playoff
game in which Leach had scored, extending the
playoff mark he set in the last game of the
semifinals. The goal made Leach the leading single
season goal-scorer in Stanley Cup history, eclipsing
the mark of 15 Montreal's Yvan Cournoyer set in
because of the play of its
leading scorer, Pete Hollis,
who tallied three goals and
five assists. Attackman Gary
Alex contributed five goals
and one assist to the Lion
cause while fellow attacker
Keith McGuire had three

Baseballers romp to sweep
of high-scoring doubleheader
Penn State's baseball team returned to
action yesterday and swept a doubleheader
from Pitt, 5-1, 18-5.
In the opener, Jim Farr scattered five
Pitt hits over seven innings en route to his
third straight win. Pitt's lone run came in the
third on a solo homer by Mike Miller, which
gave the Panthers a brief lead.
Then, in the fourth, Dave Delenick drove
two runs across with a single to center,
followed by another run-scoring punch by
George Weigel. The Lions, now 14-4 on the
year, added single runs in the sixth and
seventh.
The second game was a close, high-scoring
affair through four innings before the Lion
bats clobbered it out of reach.
Penn State scored four each in the first and
The offensive show was well worth
seeing, however, as the Blue team,
under Fusina's direction, built a quick
20-0 lead before the frosh was lifted
midway through the second quarter to
give Doug Pysher some playing time.
Thrower was the main ground threat
in the first half as he made many
bystanders forget about the absence
running back Duane Taylor with seven
and twenty-yard touchdown runs. He
suffered a bruised shoulder near the end
of the half, yet still exited with 69 yards
on 12 carries.
The White team got on the scoreboard

pass from Doug Hostetler to senior end
Tim Kissel, offsetting a 33-yard run by
Kevin Mannix on the Blues two minutes
earlier.

"I don't think we're a physical team,"
he said. "We were more concerned in
spring practice with the skill positions.
We worked more on our offensive timing
and spent very little time an goal line
scrimmages and other tough work that
is necessary to make a team tough
physically."

It also was the only shot Philadelphia could
manage in the game's opening 10 minutes. Montreal
finished with a 36.20 edge in shots on net.
Leach's tally was followed 12 minutes later when
Lonsberry, seemingly checked by Robinson 10 feet
in front of the net, backhanded a pass from Mel
Bridgman past a startled Dryden.
But Montreal, skating with the speed which has
been its trademark through the years, suddenly
began to leave the Flyers behind on their rushes.
And with 4:04 played in the second period, left wing
Bob Gainey slid a pass under the falling body of
Philadelphia's Bill Barber. The disc skimmed to
Roberts, whose 20• foot wrist shot found the far side
of the net.
The Canadiens narrowly missed another goal just
15 seconds later, when Lafleur shot past a yawning
cage on a three on one break. But the momentum
continued and Robinson, taking a drop pass from
Pete Mahovlich, wristed and another 20-footer past
Stephenson to even the count.
For both Roberts and Robinson, it was the third
goal of the playoffs.

his prayers with a fastbreak
