Unbeaten Tennis Records At Stake In Penn State Ties
STATE COLLEGE Pa June 14 Two unbeaten records will be at stake Saturday when the Penn State tennis team invades Philadelphia to meet Penn in the last match on the spring schedule. The Lions have won five matches this season. Unbeaten netmen are Apprentice Seaman Walt Stenger of Waynesboro and Marine Pvt Ed Meyer of Philadelphia. Stenger has nine straight victories with seven this year plus two last year. Meyer swept the six matches in which he has competed this spring. Meyer will be available for the summer season but Stenger expects to go to a new assignment at the end of the present semester. The Penn match may be his last for the duration. Wille Pep, discharged from the Navy, hasn’t fought since last June and probably will require several months to tune up.
