Spring Football
'Very Successful9
Spring football practice ended
at Lehigh with coach Fred
Dunlap calling the 1975 workouts
"very successful."
In the annual Brown and White
scrimmage, climaxing drills, the
Whites managed a 33-0 victory
using a newly-installed winged-T
offense.
The Engineers, who fashioned
three winning seasons in the last
four years chiefly on the throwing

of quarterbacks Kim McQuilken
and Joe Alleva, are changing
their image. They'll still put the
ball in the air, according to
Dunlap, but at a more normal
pace.
In the intra-squad scrimmage
there were three touchdowns
scored on the ground and two in
the air.
Fullback Rod Gardner, of
Maplewood, N. J., rammed
across from the two, quarterback
Joe Sterrett, of Wallingford, Pa.,
tallied from the three and halfback Lenny Daniels, of West
Coxsackie, N. Y., broke loose on a
17-yard scoring dash.
Sterrett passed 22 yards to split
end Bob Liptak, of Yonkers, N.
Y., for a touchdown and reserve
quarterback Mike Rieker, of
Catasauqua, Pa., threw 49 yards
to halfback Mark Weaver, of
Allentown, Pa., for another.
Weaver kicked two extra points
^rnd-halfback Greg Pierog, of
Emmaus, Pa., had one.
Gardner, a 6-foot, 200-pounder
who has carried the ball 308 times
for 1,482 yards and 25 touchdowns
during two years of varsity
competition, was 13 for 66 in the
practice game. Daniels, coming
up to the varsity after a standout
freshman campaign, was 13 for
78. The 5-11,180-pound rookie had

He was one of only 33 gridmen
across the nation to receive an

Lehigh in 1967 and 1968 and now
an attorney in Newark, N. J.,
delivered the principal address.
Jennings  was   graduated   from
Lehigh in 1970 and from Harvard
Law School, and was admitted to
the New Jersey bar in 1973.
He reviewed his career in the
late 1960s at Lehigh, during a
period of general student unrest
at many schools across the
nation, said some of the things for
which he and others were striving
had been accomplished, and
spoke of the University in very
complimentary terms.
"I   have   had   a   chance   to
compare," he said, "alluding to
his   post-graduate   years    at
Harvard, "and Lehigh comes off

Lehigh's 1975-76 wrestling
schedule, although incomplete at
this time, will open Dec. 3 at
home against Wilkes.

Riflemen 2nd        South Mt< Distribution
Host Kings College placed
three men in the top five to win
the Eastern Pennsylvania Intercollegiate Rifle League championship by just four points over
Lehigh.
Kings totaled 1,306 points in the
tournament to Lehigh's 1,302.
Kutztown was third with a 1,267,
Scranton had a 1,262 and
Bucknell a 1,120.
The South Mountaineer will be
sent to alumni via different
classes of mail beginning in the
fall of 1975.
The decision, caused by rising
costs, was made by the directors
of the Alumni Assn. at the spring
meeting and announced by Jim
Niemeyer,   executive   director.
The Mountaineer will continue
to be sent at no charge to alumni,
upon a request to the Alumni
Office. The standard method of
delivery, however, will be nonprofit (third class) mail.
Alumni wishing to receive it via
first class mail should remit $4
for 1975-76. The rate for foreign
airmail will be $7.
