Pre-Fight Predictions
Favor Lion Boxers
To Retain Title
here are the opinions of local tight
fans on the probable outcome of the
Eastern Intercollegiate Boxing tour
nament:
Hugh R. Riley, jr., sports editor,
department of public information:
'"I pick Sammy Donato to beat
Givern and Criswell is sure to win.
Any one of these three can win: Rich
ter, Goodman, Ritzie."
Louis If. Bell, of the department of
journalism, former sports editor of
the Chester Times:
"Penn State's winning the cham
pionship depends on Ritzie and I
think he will come through. Cris
well and Richter are the othi. Penn
State .bets. Mastrella will probably
take the 135 and Jefferis the 165. I
look for a heated third place,fight be
tween Army, Harvard, and Western
Maryland."
Sergeant Jack Ryan, U. S. A.:
"My selections are Criswell, 115;
Crampton (Harvard), 125; Goodman,
185; S. Donato, 145; Fink (Syracuse),
155; Jetteris (Syracuse), 165; Sala
(Villanova), 175; Brown. (Syracuse),
heavyweight"
i Prof. Harry 11. Geist:
/ "I've got my fingers crossed."
George A. Scott, city editor, Centre
Daily Times:
"It is difficult to predict any win
ners because of the comparatively un
kdown quantity of Harvard's team.
Best bets for individual champions are
Criswell, 115; Crampton (Harvard)
125; Goodman, 135; Sammy Donato,
145; York (Army) 155; .lefferis
(Syracuse) 165; Sala (Villanova)
1.75; Richter, heavyweight."
Johnny Napoleon. 115-pound cham
pion in 1933:
"Criswell, Sammy Donato and
Richter are my choices for champion
ship honors. If Iccy maintains his
aggressiveness throughout the fight,
he will heat Pontecorvo."'

Just A Surprise
To Do pesters
Hy JOHN BRENNE3IAN
While the victory of - State's relay
team at. the Intereollegiates Satur
day came as a "stunning upset" to
those who are aceustomea to think of
this college as the home of wrestlers,
Losers and Penn State Jessie, to those
of us who have watched the develop
ment, of track here under "Chick"
Werner it was nothing more than a
pleasant surprise.
Not sines Csu. Bates, and ide won

adelphia in 1927 has l'enn State had

championship was that won by the

of wrestling, and weaknesses of lo
local wrestlers. That student is a
heel. and I hope he has the grace
to blush if he reads this.
The cage season just concluded
was one of the most distressing
ever witnessed by Penn State fan
dom. Entry into a tough confer
ence, material at a new low ebb,
and the lack of any cohesive force
made it an impossibility for State
to go anywhere. Where the fault
lies is not in this writer's province
to judge; sufficient to say that an
other such season will necessitate
drastic measures—and that doesn't
necessarily imply abandonment of
our place in the conference.
