Dean Warnock Made Some 'Predictions'
But It-Looked Like a Slam At Others
Posing as the great predictor, Dean of Men Arthur. R. 'Warnock listed
the problems which would meet Dr. Carl P. Schott if he were appointed
Dean of the School of Physical Education and Athletics, the same day the
trustees were to meet to decide on Dr. Schott. The Dean's prognostication
was in his Centre Daily Times Half Colyum.
Of course, the ordinary reader didn't know that the president had al
ready decided upon the appointment, and that Dean_ Warnock knew it.
Dean Warnock also "predicted" five points which the president had includ
ed in the Board of. Trustee's report, and which appeared in metropolitan
newspapers the same day as Dean Warnock's , colyum.
• Says Dean Warnock, "we predict that any new*phys ed. dean will find
himself devoting about one-fifth of his time to intercollegiate athletics
That may be the truest statement in
the Dean's colyum, but we feel, if
conditions of the past few years con
tinue, the problems of intercollegiate
athletics, here require much more of
the phys, ed. dean's time.
Going on, Dean Warnock says one
fifth of Di'. Schott's time will go to
modernizing the systeni of required
physical education for men and wom
en. This is the biggest slap in the
face the present staff of the School
of Physical Education and Athletics
has received.
• Penn State has the most modern
program of physical education used
in this country. Because of the new
elective system started this year,
Penn State has taken a lead in the
field and has received nation-wide
recognition,
Another fifth of Dr. Schott's time,
Dean Warnock slyly says, will go to
ward "expanding the intramural pro
gram to tam care of ever-increasing
numbers of would-be players." This
doesn't mean very much, in itself.
The intramural program here, if car
ried out, is as good, if not .better,
than most colleges. As a matter of
fact, Columbia Teachers College
came out recently and rated the
Penn State intramural program as
among the 12 best in the Country.
Not content with this, Warnock
says' Schott will "pioneer in' a win
ter sports outdoor program." This
is the dirtiest slam ever directed at
a hard working department led, by
two experts in the field, Ray Conger
and Max Dercum.
Conger, a newcomer on the phys.
ed. staff, has devoted the entire year
to developing the natural resources
of the surrounding.country for stu
dent use. Weekly hikes were orga
nized; bird, tree, and other groups
were developed for study; winter
sports, such as skiing, were put.in
as an activity' for "eleetive
education. . '
Dercum started the Penn State Ski
club two years ago and since then
the group has expanded so that it
competed favorably with other col
leges in the east and gathered a num
ber of enthusiasts here.
And while Dean Warnock says
Schott will pioneer in recreation, he
forgets the fact that a certain pro
fessor of nature education, Green
by name, started a student recrea
tional program 25 years ago •and is
today aiding Ray Conger in continu
ing the movement. ,
Warnock concluded his wonderful
prediction by saying Schott would
"administer the four-year coaching
curriculum" as if to say. it wasn't
being administered at present.' As a
matter of fact; the Association of
Liberal Arts Colleges of Pennsylva
nia considered Penn State's curricu
lum good enough to ask the School
to construct one for. its uie.
90futry,VarnOsk, byVwrtitng his sol
yum, only. Sc hint, rathitqleliberate-
ly 'berated the School of Physical Ed
ducation and _Athletics. He also hit
one of his supposedly good pals,
Hugo Bezdelc, who, despite his limi
tations, was instrumental in ,foster
ing the teacher-training . programs,
putting intramurals on their present
basis, and generally heading for. a
modern School of Physical Etlocation.
When Bezdek was-on the pan just
a year ago. Warnock was one of the
few people around here who went.to
bat for him with the president and
others. Now' he turns around and
infers Bez didn't do anything-here.
Dr. Schott will take over on the
first of July.' He is a capable man,
and will direct his efforts toward ex
panding the present set-up, accord
ing to his statement to the Collegian
last week. But Dr. Schott cannot
start anything around there, because

it has already been done, especially
in the last six years.
And while on the subject, it seems
that Dean Warnock is also a capable
man. His job as Dean of Men makes
him responsible for student welfare
and student-faculty relationship. We
think he should stick to his field and
stay away from the School of Phys
ical Education and Athletics. Since
a lot of people know Warnock was
one of the candidates for Schott's
job, it may look like sour grapes if
he continues to criticize, in his in
direct way, a pretty good athletic
staff.
Lacrosse Ten
Beats Lehigh
State Wins, 9-1, After
Scoring All Goals
In First Half
Scoring all their goals in the first
half, Perin State's lacrosse squad
scored a 9-1 victory over Lehigh on
New Beaver Field Saturday for its
fourth consecutive win of the season.
Sel Cohn shot the ball past ahrd
ner, Lehigh goaltender, 27 seconds
after the opening whistle. This trick
left the Engineers in such a deep awe
of the Lion attack that State, taking
full advantage of their paralysis, tal
lied five more times in the next six
minutes.
Lions Run Rampant
Buser dropped the ball for a score
after he took a pass from Cohn be
hind .the net. Cohn again figured in
the scorinvattaelcyllen.he passed the
ball to his' aptain, John Conley, who
shoved it into the netting. Kay Cos
kery and Andy Krause, sophomore
substitute, each chalked up a point
for State and then cooperated, Krause
to Coskery, in producing the last tally
of the first quarter.
The Engineers were more or less
back - to their senses in the second
quarter,
.and held the Lions to three
tallies scored by DeFalco, Sheridan,
and Foster, all subs.
The second half saw the Engineers
again on the defense but the • Lions
*ere unable to break through for a
score. 'Late in the fourth quarter,
Griffiths, Lehigh attack, sent the ball
into the net against Coach Thiel's
substitutes for their lone score.

Tenth Inning

Lion Nine, 11-5
Villanova Scores Six
In Overtime Period
To Break 5-5 Tie
By HERB CAHAN
It was exciting. It was dull. There
was • good baseball. There was bad
baseball. Villanova should have von
but not the way they did. Final score:
Villanova 11, Penn State 5, in nine
innings of baseball and one inning of
farce.
With a revised lineup that seemed
to add power to the team, the Lions
came from behind twice to tie the
score only to have Harry Harrison
peg a low one to Mel Vonarx and
Frank Smith threw; a putout ball to a
vacant third sack in the fatal tenth.
But Frank shouldn't be held entirely
at fault for, although he pitched a
pretty fair game, his hitting helped
out in two scoring innings. -
Sol Miehoff and Mike Kornick came
out cf their hitting slump, and along
with George Slabodian, Smith, Vo
narx, and Johnny Waters accounted
for the team's nine safeties, against
thirteen for the Wildcats.
The day's hitting honors went to
Ray Stoviaki who played a prominent
part in last fall's defeat at the hands
of the Villanova football team. Sto
viak garnered three hits, two singles
and a lusty homer under the score
board in right field, and the sacrifice
bunt in the tenth that caused "Dizzy"
Smith's miscue.
Villanova stepped ahead in the
ninth with a single marker to Make
the score 5 to 4. The Lions came
right back when Slabodian tripled to
deep right and Smith singled him
home. Harrison then sacrificed, Wear
got on base on an error, Kornick was
intentionally passed, loading the bases
for the second time. Schelle was re
lieved at this point by southpaw Bill
McLaughlin. Here Joe Bedenk, in a
questionable bit of strategy, sent Bob
Steckel in to at for Ray-Brake, who
has been the team's only consistent
hitter, Steckel struck out.
The terrible tenth started off with
two singles by Sheftic and Bond, who
scored on Smith's error. Frank struck
out the next man, but Harrison's bad
thrsw on Del Umo's grounder and
Wannamacher's single scored Stoviak.
Then Dizzy did another pitching
about-face and conked Crawley to
load the sacks. McLaughlin, the Wild
cat relief hurler, immediately-unload
ed them with a single to bring the
TIM total to six. He was out trying
to stretch the hit, after the runs had
scored.
The Lions filled the basCs again in
their half of 'the tenth with two out,
when Vonarx and Waters singled and
Harrison walked, only to have Wear
ground out to second:
The team travels to West Point on
Wednesday to play a strong Army

Tom Sets New Record
For Javelin Throw
As Navy Bows
By BILL JOACHIM
Paced by Pete Olexy and Tom Pri
olo, both of whom turned in the best
performances of their careers, State's
track team headed for the big meets
of the year by*turning aside Navy at
Annapolis on Saturday, 68-58. Priolo
was especially impressive, tossing the
javelin to a new Lion record of 199
feet 8 inches, eight inches beyond the
old record.
The odds were all against Tom. He
wasn't considered good epoligh to be
taken along to the Penn Belays. He
had been throwing about 160 or 170
feet for most of the season. Pike, of
Navy, placed third down at Penn; and
was a cinch to win. But Tommy, en
joying the field day of a lifetime, got
oil just one tremendous heave that.
sailed to a record distance. Incident
ally he won the discus throw with a
not-so-bad throw of 138 feet, '4 inch.
Olexy Does 1:22 Mile
Pete Olexy,. building up for the In
tercollegiates, set himself up as an
iron man. He ran the fastest mile
he has ever run and then came back
and outlasted the field to win the two
mile event. His mile time was 4:22,
and that for the two-mile, 9 minutes
42.7 seconds. But far more impres
sive than the times, which by the way
were exceptionally good, was the way
that Pete beat two outstanding men,
sprinting down the home-stretch with
a burst of speed that in each case
brought him in a winner.
Other outstanding performances
were registered by Junior Hanley,
Dmie Bauer, and Howard Downey.
Junior won the shot-put, beating out
Mike Brown, veteran, with a toss of
44 feet B'4 inches. Brown's best was
an inch and a half less. Hanley also
took third place in the javelin throw
with a good heave of 188 feet.
Bauer won the high hurdles in 15:5
and ran' a close second in the lows.
In addition, he finished second in a
9:8 century race. Downey, third place
winner in last year's IC-4A. meet, took
the quarter-mile in 50:5 seconds.
&ikman Shows Improvement
Burt Aikmbn was another who
showed improvement over other races.
He ran the 880 in 1 minute 58.1 sec
onds, the fastest time a State man
has turned in for several years.
Bob Clark again won the pole vault.
This time he cleared 12 feet 9 inches.
Clark has everything in his favor and
is a potential Intercollegiate cham
pion.
Other placers for State were Vic
Sandharn, second in the high jump;
Len Henderson, third in the mile;
Will Sutton, third in the 100 and sec
ond in the 220. Greg Thompson, sec
ond in the high hurdles; Elmore Grim,
third in the high jump; and Bernie
Kalmanowicz, second in the broad
jump. _ .
Especially pleasing to Coach Chick
Werner is the fact that only three
seniors are included in the group that
placed at Navy. ➢lost of the remain
ing group is made up of sophomores.

After Tech kicked out of bounds on

with his interference blocking well he
galloped for the goal line. Joe Metro,

Metro played a bang-up game at
