The Sports Editor
*. As far as State College is concern
ed, the winter sports season closes
tomorrow, when the boxing and wrest-
|jj|ng teams follow the lead of the
courtmen by bidding -the town adieu
in their last home dual meets. Only
the boxing intercollegiates March 17
• and. 18 remain for Recreation hall
sports lovers as a fitting climax to
~\yhat has been, on the whole, a suc
cessful home season.
'Miles away in the wilds of central
faew York, Spike Leslie’s basketeers
will 'be. attempting to clinch' their
claims as “the .-best State basketball
team in years” by putting the skids
under fast-traveling Colgate and Sy
racuse quintets, while here at home,
Charlie Speidel’s grapplers find only
the Orange standing in the way of
carrying an impressive ; undefeated
'dual-meet record into the Intercol
legiatcs at New York St. Patrick’s
Day. For the boxers, Army presents
■“Vthe opportunity to return to charac
teristic Lion form presaging charac-i
f - teristic Lion championships in the big
* fights two weeks hence. Thus the
. lines of battle- are formed for this last
> week-end. They’ll be carrying away
1 the dead and wounded by the time
the sm °ke clears Sunday morning.

Joe Bronson of the Carnegie
j Tech Tartan, we’re inclined to „take
i Pitt’s announcement that athletic
scholai*ships have been abolished with
a grain" of salt—several barrels;- in
fact. It’s not that it’s inconceivable
that Pitt shouUt make a clean sweep
of all subsidization; after all, the
handwriting on. the wall can pierce
even the smoke clouds of good old
I Schenley. But when the statement is
made that “athletic scholarships, as
such” have not been in order at the
Panther lair for yeahs and yeahs ..
Well, you’ll pardon us if we take time
out to—er —sneeze. . And that in
cludes you too, Leon.

BOXERS MEET AR
Ringmen Seek Comeback
Against Cadets Tomorrow
Captain McAndrews, Napoleon Will Oppose
Undefeated Opponents—Tom Slusser
Returns as 175-Pounder
By CHARLES A. MYERS '3l
Penn State’s two big guns of boxing, Captain Johnny Mc-
Andrews and Johnny Napoleon, will lead the Lion fistic fire
against a battery of seven Army ringmen in Recreation hall at
7:30 o’clock tomorrow night. As seniors, they will also make
their last appearance in the ring here, since it is the Lions’ final
home meet of the season.
Army teams are almost always strong enough
sports stronghold, and this one is no exception,
undefeated this season, but no team has even
handing it a setback. In the opening*
meet,' Army squelched Pittsburgh’s
Panthers, then brushed
aside C. C. N. Y., van-.
auisHcd V. M. 1., 6V^-to-lVis; and shut
out M. I. T. last wpek, 8-to-0, with
fivo knockouts.
Napoleon To Fight 115
However, it looks like Penn State's
first point when Johnny Napoleon
starts things going against Dick of
Army in the 115-pound bout. Al
though the Cadet is undefeated th'S
season, he will have to be'pretty good
to keep away from Johnny’s left jabs
which have spoiled at least'two unde
feated records so far.
Mike Zeleznock seems to draw just
about the toughest opponents in col
lege boxing. Last week he lost to
national, collegiate champion A 1 Wer
theimer, and this week he will fight
Cleveland, eastern intercollegiate
featherweight finalist who is also un
defeated this season.
Coach Leo Houck is still in doubt
as to his pick for the lightweight bout,
but Paul Ferrero will probably get the
call over Watkins, Snyder, or Struble.
Bennett, who lost his first fight, drew
in, the second, and won the third by
a knockout, will be the Army entry.
.'McAndrews To Meet Hagan
Captain Johnny McAndrews ap
pears to be a pretty sure winner over
Hagan, who is undefeated after win
ning one fight by a knockout and an
other by ‘a decision: There is also a
possibility that Johnny may advance
a weight, and in that case there will
be other shifts in the lineup.
“Mutt’ Kessler, back in his natural
place at 155 pounds, should have a
good scrap with Cadet-Shinkle,-who is"
undefeated and a'first-round knock
out-winner last week. Alex Turnbull;
who proved his worth as a boxer by
putting up .a superb exhibition against
Herb Ross of Syracuse last week, will
oppose''Olson in the 165-pound class.

Formal Dress for
Army Boxing Meet
Requested by Wood
Formal attire will be required
of all students and guests sitting
■on the main floor of Recreation
hall at the Army boxing meet to
morrow. night as previously an
nounced, according to John A.
Wood, senior class president.
Colonel Venable, his staff, and
advanced R. 0. T. C. students will
attend the bouts in a body. The
group will occupy a reserved sec
tion on the main floor of the hall.
The College Blue Band, under
.the direction of Major Wilfred 0.
Thompson, will attend the meet in
uniform and selections by the band
will be featured as a part of the
program. Members of campus hat
societies and,Student Board mem
bers : will report violators of the
jeering rule, Wood stated. *
Olson is yet to be beaten this year.
Tom Slusser, back after a week’s
layoff, will fight in the 175-pound
class for the first time this season.
His opponent will be either Kendall
or Captain Joe Remus, eastern inter
collegiate 175-pound champion. Re
mus was slated to fight in the heavy
weight class, but since Penn State
will enter no man in that class, he
may fight in his old position.
The Cadets hold a five to one ad
vantage in dual meet victories over
the Lion ringmen since the series was
inaugurated in 1922. The Nittany
boxers captured the decision in 1924
by a 4-to-3 score after losing by 6-
to-1 scores'in 1922 .and 1923. With
the 1931'engagement, which was held
here, ending in a 3Ms-to-3V6 deadlock,
Army gained the honors in last year’s
'meet by the same total that gave it
the honors in 1925 and 1926, 5-to-2.

Lion Court Mentor
Favors High School
Championship Here
“Recreation hall is the natural site
for the final game of the P. I. A. A.
scholastic tourney, and I think the
College should do everything possible
to bring the game here,” Spike Leslie,
Lion court mentor,^said Wednesday,
thus adding his name to the long list
of basketball fans and officials who
favor Penn State as the site for the
play-off contest.
“If the game is held here, not only
the College but also the school players
themselves will benefit. The high
school teams would get a chance to
see just what sort of facilities Penn
State has to offer for the develop
ment of physical education and ath
letics, and the College would be able
to get acquainted with the cream of
the annual crop of high school cag
ers,” Leslie said.
Neil M. Fleming, graduate manag
er of athletics, announced this week
that a renewed effort will be made to |
make the College the site of the game. l

LION FIVE TO PLAY
LAST GAME AWAY
Passers Will End Season Wit h
Orange Contest —Oppose
Maroon Tonight
Uy W. M. STERMEIEK *2l
. With the end of one of the
most successful basketball sea
sons Penn. State has known in
years just beyond the horizon,
Lion courtmen will travel north
ward to meet the Maroon of Col
gate at Hamilton tonight and
Syracuse’s Orangemen at Syra
cuse tomorrow night.
The up-state teams will probably
present about the stiffest opposition
the Lions have encountered all sea
son. However, Coach Spike Leslie,
, now anxiously awaiting tonight’s con
test at Hamilton, refuses to be too
pessimistic about the Blue and White
chances. If we want to win, thougn,
we’ll have to be on our toes every
minute, he told the team at the final
practice session in Recreation hall
Wednesday night.
Niltany Lineup Unchanged
The ten Nittany cagers who made
the trip ai*e in excellent condition.
Early yesterday morning they left so
as to be sure to get plenty of rest
before their baptism of fire tonight.
Spike will use just about the same
lineup that has been starting all sea
son.
Although Colgate has a strong team
of veteran players, they seem to he
taking it on the chin this season.
Syracuse vanquished them, 35-to-27,
and Army succeeded in downing them
by a 40-to-3G count. In tonight’s
contest, the Maroon will probably use
Whitey Anderson and Acropolis at t.he
forward positions, Brooks and Walsh
as guards, and Cook at center.
Syracuse is even more to be feared
than the Maroon. So far this season
they have annexed twelve of fourteen
games played. Their prize conquest
is Penn; the Quakers .fell before the
Orange five, 34-10-22.
