BETWEEN
Although there Is a lull' in Lion
sports during December as far as
actual contests are concerned; Recre
ation ball' these days is bubbling over
with humanity.
Right IMO, the main activity is In
tramural; boxing.. With ,more than . 60
entered to the annual tournament, the
popularity or the spirt is evident.
Daily capacity crowds further prove
this point..
it won't be , long before Intramural
wrestling starts and again there will
be wide interest. What makes both
tourneys interesting' is the fact that.
varsity athletes are replaced by other
students who are given their chance
for recreation.
" Front 4 o'clock until ft daily, varsity
basketball, boxing, wrestling, fencing;
and gymnastic athletes are workihg
out ardently for the openings of the
seasons which do not come until after
the Christmas vacation. In addition,
freshman aspirants, particularly in
basketball, are training.
Alaskethall will light the ,winter
sports torch• but Penn State students
won't he witnesses. Coach Sohn Law
ther's engem will make a three-day
western trip, at the end of the month
in preparation for the traditional bat-
Ile' with Penn 'January 5: A month .
still remains before the Eastern In
teriollegiate Conference opens play.

more zest than ever before. Coach
Lawther proved last year what be
'could „do with the available material
and it is logical to expect an even'
better performance this year.
Under Lawther kir the first' time
last year, the, Lions made a spectacu
lar rebound from the cellar of the con
ference and' finished in third place,
one game out of the championship.
For this, Lawther was named as the
basketball coach doing the best Job
in the east. •
Whatever the Lions accomplished
last year In pulling upset after upset,
they did on 'sheer grit and the begin
ning of-a
-sound basketball knowledge
gleaned'in'a Short time from Limner.
In the exhibition game against Buck
melt last week, State showed some
thing else. Thp players went into
LOwther's plays automatically. Most
of the scoring won-done on set plays
which worked to perfection. The .an.
tOmutic switching variation, of the
zone defense completely,; bottled up
what looked like a promising Bison
tetim.
' Just whet Penn State will do' in
basketball this year is hard to deter
mine, particularly with every team in
the•conference reputed to be strong
er: However, not even a champion
ship would surprise this writer, for
Lowther is the man to do it If anyone
ever will.

Leo Houck Faces Tough Job
, Of Replacing 5 Lost Boxer
By TOM BOAL
The biggest coaching job ever
fac'ed by amiable Leo Houck will be
his this semester when he tries to
mold another championship team
from the material at hand. Only three
regulars from last year remain and
they are: Al Sopchak, 115 pounds, Al
Tappman, 125 pounds, and Captain
Sam Donato, 145 pounds.
The loss of intercollegiate cham
pion Bill Soose and runner-up Ko
Re
ciubinsky means, in the opinion of
many, the lo'ss of two points in each
meet. Mentioned as possible succes
sors to the above are Stu Quailley
and Al Bolder in the light-heavy
weight and Hank Schweitzer in the
155-pound class.
Building a team strong enough to
face such stellar opponents as North
Carolina, Syracuse, Virginia, Army,
and Wisconsin seems now an almost
impossible-task. However, a few op
timists believe that the old master
will whip into shape a squad of mitt
men goad enough to meet any college
boxing team.
The bulk of the optimists' hopes lie
in the lightweight classes which fea
tures last year's letter winners.
Around these, Leo is expected by
them to present at least two finished
boxers.
From the intramural fights, a hope
of finding varsity material always is
present in the Houcic's mind. Leo
has been scanning each man carefully
and trying to discover, if possible,
someone with the ability to compete
