In Close Meet
1940 Harriers Trample
Cornell with 15-40
Perfect Score
By WOODROW BfERLY
Pete Olexy maintained his unde
feated record in three years of dual
competition when he took first place
in the meet at Van Cortlandt Park
Saturday, despite the fact that the
Lion varsity harriers bowed to the
strong Manhattan runners with a :
score of 2G-to-29. • It was State's first
defeat since the Syracuse encounter
of 1933, but it was also their toughest
meet in the past five or six years.
While the varsity were running in
New York City, the freshmen opened
their season at Cornell where Galer,
Gordon, Maule, Miller, and Nipson,
attempting to duplicate the varsity's
stunt at Lehigh, finished the 29$ -mile
course in a tie with a time of 14:57.
Olexy finished in the varsity com
petition with a 40-yard lead on Gene
Malloy, the Jaspers’ first man. A
blazing homestretch brought Bob
Conkling an extremely close decision
over Captain Howard Downey for
third place while Herb Hazzard fol
lowed on Downey’s heels. Ray Vacca,
Joe McClain, and Joe Murphy took
the next three positions for the Man
hattan team, while Bert Aikman,
Charles Pierce, Charles Clark, and
Len Henderson finished 11th, 13th,
14th, and 15th respectively.

THE PENN. STATE COLLEGIAN
BETWEEN
THE LIONS
By 808 GRUBB
Mr. Tunis Speaks:
When John R. Tunis conies forth
to speak on sports, most people give
him a ready audience. What Mr.
Tunis has to say this time certainly
should command attention for it
strikes home.
First, let’s take a look, at some
of our opponents as they line up in
Mr. Tunis’ classification. We can
see no fault in putting Penn State
in the semi-pro class—between the
simon pares in the “shamateur”
class and the decidely subsidized
teams of the professional class.
Speaking of the semi-pro class,
“They are all serious institutions
of learning . . . they seldom go into
the market and buy,- stars openly—
as a rule these Group B athletes
are bona fide students,” says Mr.
Tunis.
Only two of our opponents are in
the same semi-pro class—Penn and
Cornell. Lehigh is in the amateur
class, and, as, far as we know, the
• latter rating is just about correct.
But, at the majority of the teams on
the Lion schedule are classed as
professionals—a fact that has al
ways been taken for granted, but
now confirmed by the Tunis rating.
In the professional class fall Buck
nell, Pitt, Syracuse and Villanova.
The rating given Bucknell, Pitt,
Syracuse and Villanova—out and
out professionals—only confirms the
contention held by many on this
campus for some time—the fact
that Penn State is playing teams
out of her class. This fact must be
faced when the 1937 schedule is
presented for approval. It is a fact
which will become more and more
clear as this season goes on.
Mr. Tunis’ main point of attack
centers about the professional class,
He does not condemn subsidization.
He condemns the disguises and sub
terfuges of the professional colleges
be paid, openly and above board.
“Let’s have a minimum wage for
athletes,” he says.'
Mr. Tunis does not have much to
say about the semi-pros. As for
ourselves, the condition of the “in
betweens” is not alarming. Here, at
State, we have a long way to go
to even reach the borderline of pro
fessionalism as it exists at Pitt or
Syracuse.
(From American Mercury
That the current football season
is destined to go down in the books
as the worst in several years now
seems inevitable. Next year and the
year after, the score'-bf the Penn
State-Cornell game will be remem
. bered simply as 13-7. I£ow well Jthe
Lions played, how much superior
the Ithacans were means nothing.
It is well to ncte, however, that a
decided improvement in the Penn
State team over the last two weeks
was shown in Saturday’s game.
. Monday morning quarterbacking
never does any good, true, but the
performance of the team against
Cornell has given the players them
selves and the coaches , some satis
faction in that a great many diffi
culties seemed to have' been ironed
out since a week ago. The spirt and
the will to win was lacking at Le
high was there on Saturday; of
that there is no doubt.
Good old dependable soccer team
In defeating Lafayette, 2-0, they
overcame one of the greatest ob
stacles to an undefeated season . .
Pete Olexy’s time of 25.85 for the
five-mile Van Courtlandt park course
in the cross-country meet with Man
hattan is a good indication of what
he should do in the I. C. 4-A’s over
the same course three weeks hence.
