Page Four Lion Boxeri MAT COMPETITION BECOMES STIFFER Updcgrovc Declared Ineligible In 155-Pound Ring Class For This Year Fatted and dulled by the lethargic effect of a two-weeks abstinence from drill, tho Nittany Lion wrestlers and boxers entered into the refining period of pre-season practice this week. Coach Charlie Speidel' scrutinizes bis sweating squad of eighty-seven, and shouts and exhorts as his nwtnicn reach for the wrong leg, but always there's that gleam in his eye as the competition for berths continues to rage fiercer and fiercer. Few Gaps To Fill With few grapplers sure of posi tions, Coach Speidel is grooming new comers to the squad ready to supplant any of the regulars showing signs of weakness. There are, however, few gaps to fill, with only Javo lettermen from last year's team missing from tho roll. Only the 115 and the 165-pound weights arc left vacant through the graduation'of last year’s captain, Hoy Maize, and Ted Reybitz. Ellstrom, Rosenberg, Turnbull, Captain Mike Lorenzo, Jackson and Cole, all letter men, look good in the other weights; Updcgrovc Ineligible The ineligibility of “Pete” Upde grove, classy 155-pound boxer on last year’s ring team, put a kink this week in Coach Leo Houck’s attempts at working out a lineup. Updcgrovc was a third place winner in both the east ern intercollegiates and the national collegiates last year. •Right now “Mutt” Kessler, from last year’s freshman team, and Rey nolds, a junior, arc the chief contend ers for the vacant 155-pound berth. Last’ycar Kessler won the interclass championship by knocking out Wants house in the finals. The return of the heavyweight class to the lineup gives Leo a chance tc work in cither Dick Woolbert or Anderson in that division. Dick got his first taste of intercollegiate boxing at the national collegiates here last April when lie took the count from Doyless Hill, of Tulane, who won the championship and was the only col; lege boxer on the U. S. Olympic team. Campus Bulletin A meeting of all interfraternity basketball managers will be held in Old Main at 7 o’clock Monday night.

Kapp • Cashier , Wrestlers Resume Pre-Season Practice Drills Suggests Change |¥#| #*' v ' ,✓ y - .-5 \ /-£&''> ' ' f - Coach ffisams Higgins Will Propose Change in Ruling at Meeting of Coaches A change in the 1932 football rules governing the interception of forward passes will be suggested .to the inter collegiate football rules committee by Coach "Bob” Higgins for considers: tion at its meeting sometime this month,’Higgins stated .Tuesday. The suggestion comes as a result of the “freak” play which occurred near the end of the Waynesburg game when Bill Lohr intercepted a Jacket pass only to have the officials return tho ball to Waynesburg’s possession because the ball had been touched by two Waynesburg players before'reach ing Lohr. Higgins would give the de fensive team its choice of retaining possession after the interception or returning it with an added penalty to the offensive team. Approval of the suggested change was voiced by several coaches at. the meeting of the Intercollegiate Coaches association at New York city last week, Higgins said. The Lion coach plans to present his proposal to Lou THROUGH OTHER EYES Temple’s second step to acquire ifootball prominence is almost unreal. Coming at this time when the general'trend toward deflation, truer balance and better tone is so marked in.the.conduct-of intercollegiate athletics, this reaching out for gridiron gain, isjas crude as it is absurd. Pop Warner, whose fame as a constructive coach is nation-wide, is quoted as saying: "I believe the Temple post to be a wonderful opportunity and. I am satisfied that I am*bettering my position. ...Ejyery move I’ve made has been an' advancement.” ; .•. . All that can be said to this is that Pop Warner is an optimist. He may accomplish the end of paying off . the indebtedness on the Temple Stadium, with the help of much recruiting and subsidizing,of promising schoolboy ath letes, but he will never be able to elevate-Temple to the place in football to which he carried Carlisle, Pittsburgh and-Stynford, for the simple reason that games of the kind to'do'it will be lacking,':, (Schedules arc not easy to arrange these days. Prominent Eastern colleges which have been correcting athletic evils and settling to a truer ethical plane will not meet Temple under the forced draft so plainly being installed. Tempting guarantees may lead to some alliances which will command enough interest to attract the fans and fill the stadium, but to pay any dividends the stadium must'be filled a number of times. Temple football .will bo costly., If Heinie Miller, onetime brilliant end'at Pennsylvania, and Bert Bell had failed to. develop winning teams at.Temple,.one-might sec a reason for reach ing out for one of the best football toachers in the country. "But they did not fail. Only one game was lost this' season, only one a year ago. With the best schedule which could be arranged, they did a good job and brought Tem ple rather quickly to reasonable recognition. In view of this, it is hard to draw inferences which do not reflect to the credit of Temple’s purpose in bringing Pop Warner East at a salary three times or more bigger than paid to Hbinie M|iUcr. It looks like a plain gamble in an effort to capitalize on the possible effect of the Gates plan at Pennsyl vania, which sonic insist will lower the standard of Penn football and alienate the enthusiastic following which has made football so profitable at Franklin Field. It looks like a bad gamble to me. :Itis needless to say where niy sym pathies are enlisted. —George Daley in New.

K. can bo placed on the recent decision of college ring officials to reinstate the heavyweight class' after a year’s ab sence from, eastern college boxing lineups. However, Leo is not at all sure that be is going to like the decision of the* same officials to have eight instead of seven bouts in cach dual meet.- The eight-man lineup has never been used before here'in dual meets, although a similar system was used in the Na tional Collegiate Boxing tournament which was held here last April. Eight fights on a meet card will re-' sulf'in too ’Wny tie matches, Leo be lieves, adding that the ideal dual meet set-up is a seven-man arrangement. Furthermore, eight bouts will make the meet a long drawn out affair, he says, and with the addition of the heavy weight class one of the others should havc-bcen dropped. • Tho appearance of the heavyweight in the college ring will please the fans, th'o'i! boxing coach believes, since this bout is always an interesting one and usually, ends in a knockout. At least, there is always plenty of hard punch ing, dnd that’s what spectators like, he says. ' Current objectors to the heavy weight class have little ground to starid’-onj in Coach Houck’s opinion.
