Millersville and Bloomsburg particularly look out of position. The Millers, usually among the first four, are now in a three way tie for sixth place, and it wasn't until last Saturday that the Lancaster County institution even won its first game when the Huskies were beaten. *** Bloomsburg, always among the first three, is now in ninth place. Until last Friday when the Huskies took Shippensburg, the 'Buchheit crew was still in search of a January victory. When the Huskies f slaughtered Camp Fort Meade in December, 77-27, it began to look ' like this was the year. However, the Kutztown game was postponed, j and they didn 't see action again until January 9 after taking a sixteen day lay-off during Christmas vacation. Husky basketbaJl teams during the past six years have finished 'with a record of no worse than nine wins and five losses in any one season. Seniors McClosky, Pufnak and Valente are playing their final seasons of spectacular collegiate basketball careers. It would not be surprising to see the team regain its usual form in February and finish up in a blaze of glory. In all of these previous six years, the slump came in January. Maybe this winter the form will be reversed, and the slump is already past. * * H= Kutztown has made the longest j ump of any team. The Berks County school is now in a tie for third place with three victories and one defeat. Last year Kutztown didn't win a single game. Lock Haven is tied with Kutztown, boasting an identical record. However, Lock Haven lost to East Stroudsburg by only 48-47 whereas Kutz- ] town was smashed, 75-28. The Bald Eagles last year finished sixth. j j *** Contrary to most cases, East Stroudsburg is still in the same spot. Some fans believed that when ex-coach Steve Roberts left to accept a physical education position in New York the end of Big Red had finally come. But with four of last year's starting five back the Pocono boys continue to roll on. Latest conquest is a 60-34 victory over Ithaca College .. . East Stroudsburg will appear here next Saturday. *** In addition to Elwood Wagner, four year varsity soccerman, fiv e other Husky athletes left last week via graduation route. Hugh Niles, only letter winner in four sports for the past eight years for soccer, baseball, track and cross country, also played basketball; Joe Kozloski, tackle on the eleven; George Miller and John Witkoski , varsity members of the tennis team; and David Jones, soccer and baseball manager were the boys to receive diplomas.

The Huskies broke a two game losing streak last week by winning over Shippensburg, but then dropped a game to Millersville the following night. John Slegesky and Dick Shearer, both missing from the squad during part of January are both expected to see action against the Havenites. Shearer was the offensive star of the previous meeting at Lock Haven. Bald Eagles Lose Two Lock Haven has recently lost two straight games, one to East Stroudsburg by a lone point and another to Ithaca College, after winning five in a row. Captain Paul Coront, tall Havenit e cent er, will again be a threat to Coach Buchheit's charges. The lanky lad from Chester has been leading the Bald Eagle attack all year. Coach Buchh eit hasn't decided definitely upon the line-up, but it is probable that Valente, Washvilla, Chesney, Pufnak and McCioskey will compose the starting five. Tony Valente in recent games has been the spark plug of the attack, and it begins to look as though the Hazleton boy has finally hit his stride. The probable line-up: Bloomsburg Lock Haven Valente F Shaner "Washvilla F Metzler Chesney C Coront Pufnak G Bernardi McCloskey _____ G Mitro HUSKIES LEAVE CELLAR RANK IN CONFERENCE With the two leading contenders, East Stroudsburg and Lock Haven, idle from teacher competition for the second week in a row, action took place mostly in the lower brackets. Kutztown's up and coming team jumped another notch in the mythical standing by virtue of a close 42-41 victory over West Chester. Clarion met a conference opponent for the first time in California and handily swept the invaders aside, 58- . 40, to stand in second place. Bloomsburg and Millersville both left the cellar position they held a week ago. The Huskies took Ship pensburg but in turn were defeated by the Millers. _^. - ^> Did the Best She Could Groom—Now perhaps I'll be permitted to point out a few of your defects.
