Final results of captaincy elections
among Penn State’s three major win*
ter sports teams indicate that wise
choices in selection of leaders have
been made in each case. Tommy
Slusser, Norry McFarlane, and Rosy
Rosenberg are ; three athletes who
have given themselves unselfishly to
the sports which they will captain in
3934. Tommy will bear the serious
j/>b of leading Penn State’s two most
popular teams to success, while Nor
ry and Rosy will be at the helm of
basketball and wrestling in what
promises to be the peak year for these
two sports. Here’s- wishing all three
undefeated seasons, although we’re
afraid we won’t be here to enjoy
them.

’• It is hard to understand why a
spirit 'of ‘fairness is not present when
special athletic awards are made.
■ While everyone is duly .proud of our
two intercollegiate boxing champs,
certainly, intercollegiate champions
in wrestling merit equally as much
an honor of the sort that was ten
dered the two Johnnies. If this dis-
crepancy in awards is due to genuine
discrimination rather than to the
oversight which we believe to be the
cause, then those who cry aloud
against the over-emphasis of football
may well turn their attention to a

body, on hearing the results of the
Rational intercollegiate wrestling
jtournament at Lehigh niftied, “You’ll
rhave to get up in the A. & M. to fool
these Oklahoma boys” . . . which, to
be honest, doesn’t deserve -mention
even when the column is hard to fill.
,It .took our old pals on the New York
‘Times to reveal that that.terrific right

future only to make out report cards.
. . . You’ve guessed it; he’ll get an
Education diploma in June . . . Bez,
whfc spent a lot of last summer with
.Joe at the Olympic games, calls the
“killer” an “all-around good fellow’
. . which should be interesting news
..to Mutt Kessler and the other twenty
eight gentlemen who kissed the can
vas after sudden and jolting contact
with Mr. Moran’s right ... However,
Bryan Hayes, who referees around
ithese parts every now and then, con
siders our own A 1 Lewis the outstand

Cjtes the battle between Steve Hamas

Jesko Stars
The game in Recreation hall be
tween the western teams was one of
the most exciting exhibitions of bas
ketball that Penn State has ever seen.
Five times during the contest, the
score was deadlocked; four of these
ties occurred in the third quarter.
At the start of the final period of
the game, the count cancelled at 21-
to-21. However, two exe
cuted field shots by Knerley 'followed

which clinched the game.
Jesko, who secured 'thirteen points
for South high, lived up :to hits reput
ation for brilliant; court'/ playing,
which he established in the
district this season. The teams were
exceptionally well-matched,' but the
Pittsburgh club wasn't able to keep
the game on as steady a keel as Al
toona.
■South high led, 8-to-5, m the first
quarter • largely through Spotovich’s
floor work and excellent shooting. Al
toona, with Patt as the principal scor
: er took the lead at half time, 15-to
ll.
The third quarter was the closest
part of the contest, with both teams
staying witihin two ' points of each
other throughout the period. The five
point margin which Altoona held at
the close of the battle was the largest
breech ever separating the two teams.
