Sunday on the Ski Trail, six miles east of the College
In competition with the State's
best skiers, as well as several New
York state skiers, Massey, skiing
for the Interstate Club, garnered
395.1 points out of possible 400.
He won two first places and two
seconds in the four event meet,
taking first in the Downhill race
and Slalom, and second in the six
mile Cross-Country and Jumping
Max Peters won the cross-coun

swimmers heartbreaking 39-36
loss to the Big Red of Cornell
here • Saturday afternoon ,•,
Mirk ' Viniant;,;: Lion 'ociaptairi

pulled the meet 'out of the fire
had he not been bedfast in the
Infirmary Gene Thorpe, Cornell
captain, and one of the strongest,
most enduring, and fastest swim
mers ever to churn up a college
tank, was the omnipotent Red
He swam, and won, the 100, 220
and 440 yard freestyles, cracking
the pool record in the 220
StnPrise of the meet, especial
ly from the Lion outlook, was the
performance of Don Delmanzo,
Nittany distance swimmer. Al
though the amazing Delmanzo
trailed the mighty Thorpe in both
the 220 and 440, he swam 12 full
seconds faster than he has ever
swum before He was beaten by
a scant two yards in the 440
Slate Wins Relay
Top thrill of the thrill-packed
meet was the neck-and-neck 400-
yard freestyle relay, which Penn
State won by a stroke of anchor
man Bill Kirkpatrick's flailing
arms Kirkpatrick overtook the
Cornell anchor man to win by two
feet The speedy Kirkpatrick, won
the 50-yard freestyle and was
edged out in the 100 by Thorpe

contingent, of Co-Captain Guy

Syracuse Saturday night In a siz
zling second half the Orange
came back after trailing at the
halfway mark (7-11) to shatter the
Lion defense and register their
second victory over the Lawther
band this season.
Brilliant marksmanship by the
Orange's Paul Kartluke, Stan
Kruszinski and Chris Kouray and
State's Johnny Barr and Cliff Mc-
Williams kept the crowd in an
uproar throughout the second
stanza The score was tied seven
times and the lead changed six
times before the struggle ended
Weak under the baskets, the lo
cals' failure to capitalize on their
scoring opportunities in close
eventually cost them the game
Outstanding feature of the
week-end, along with' the 'ever
magnificent work of Barr, was the
improved play of Captain Cliff
McWilliams At Syracuse he
played his best game of the year,
piling up 10 points and doing
sparkling work at the backboard

Track Team Takes 8 First Places .
But Bows To Cornell, 65 To 48
Ewell Stars For Poorly Conditioned Lion 'WM —
As Smith Reaches Old form, Nine Records Fall .
By ED MCLORIE
Obviously showing the failings of proper'cOnditiomnd m' the field
events and distance runs, Penn State's winter track team bowed to
Cornell's Big Red, 65-48, in the Ithaca Armory Saturday.. Despite
eight first places and outstanding individual performance by Barney
Ewell . I
The Ebony Flash, continuing
to display "Superman" form,cap
tured first places in the 754 yard
dash, 75-yard low hurdles; second
in the road jump, and anchored
the mile relay team to victory In
the latter event, Ewell received
the , baton with the Lions in , the
red by 10 yards, but finished 15
yards ahead of his Cornell oppon
ent
Nine meet records were shat
tered and although it is not defi
nite, the coaches are of the opin
ion that Ewell's time in the, dash
equals the world's mark ' The
new dual meet marks hung up
Saturday 'were 75-yard high
hurdles—Knoerk (C) 9 4 seconds,
10-pound' shot put—West (C) 45'
9 3 / 4 ", 440-yard run—Ziegler (C)
52 seconds, broad jump—Murdock
(C) 22' 10", 75-yard dash—Ewell
(PS) 7 4 seconds, 75-yard low
hurdles—Ewell (PS) 83 seconds,
pole vault—Bakura (PS) 12' 6",
high jump—Krug (PS) and Mur
dock (C) tie at 6' 14", and:, mile
relay—Penn State 3 28 minutes.
One of the featured events - of
the meet was the duel between
Lion Len Hendrhon and Cornell's
Willard Smith with Henderson
edging ahead by a stride at the
tape and Frank Maule running a
close third
Particularly gratifying to ;Lion
fans was the return to form of 13n11
Smith as he romped in 50 yards
ahead of the field to win the two
mile run in 9 45 4 minutes. r An
other stellar showing was turned
in by Dick Yohn as he ran a nip
and tuck 880 yards with Cornell's
Washburn, winning out in the
stretch clocked in 2 01 minutes. ,

Soose Seeks Comeback,
Blames Weight For Loss
Did the fact that he was six pounds under his regular fighting
weight mean the difference between victory and defeat for Billy
Soose against Georgie Abrams on Lincoln's Birthday'
That is what Billy thinks and that is why the ex-intercollegiate
champion has refused the suggestion of his manager, Paul Moss, that
he return to Penn State and resume his studies for a medical degree
For awhile Soose wants to rest
and gain back the strength he
thinks he lost Then he wants to
come back •
Soose thinks he has been hit
harder than Abrams hit him but
believes that he lacked the
strength to come back because he
was fighting at 155 instead of ,his
usual 161 Spectators agreed that
in the Abrams fight Soose looked
skinny for the first time.
Whether he can come back is
another question Abrams has
turned Soose back twice, and this
last time defeat came when vic
tory might have meant a fight in
New York's Madison Square Gar
den and a possible middleweight
title shot next Summer.
Now Soose's record of 23 pro
fessional fights includes single de
feats from Charley Burley and
Johnny Duca and two beatings
from Abrams He has 12 knock
out victories to his credit
After Abrams,. handed Soose a
beating last September it took five
months and seven small time
fights for him to get back in the
ring with
,the Washington boy.
And that was a split decision In
Pittsburgh lastweek Abrams',;sec
ond victory was:nearer a'ilaugh

will be longer-and, harder next
time, and then where will It lead'

Nervous 'as he went into the
ring with the meet tied at 3 1 / 2 -3 1 / 2
and victory or defeat depending
on the success of his varsity ring
debut, Sid Alter threw hard lefts
and rights that made a great many
State fans and himself sorry he
hadn't come out, for boxing soon
er He pounded - - ottt a — two

victory In the first round he was
butted and cracked his nose
Last week Alter won his berth
on the squad by outboxing Johnny

Nate Handler, who had fought
several times In the last two yew's.
