Gleason . Stricken
On Eve Of Battle
Suddenly - stricken with grippe
last night, Captain Frank Gleason
was forced to remain home as his
fellow grapplers seek to trim the
Orange matmen at Syracuse to
night.
In a -last minute effort to plug
the gap left by Glee - son, Coach
Charlie Speidel drafted Bill Stan
ley to fill in at Charlie Ridenour's
123-pound spot while the Lion
Sophomore moves into Gleason's
135-pound position.
Other Lion team members are
Clair Hess; 121-pound; Allan Crab
tree, 145-pound; Joe Scalzo, 155-
pound; Chuck Rohrer, 165-pound;
Joe Valla, 175-pound; and Jack
Kerns, heavyweight.

Baker, a bruising body-slammer.
Lion Puckmen
Trounce Owls, 6-1
Special to The Collegian
JOHNSTOWN, Jan. 17—A Penn
State ice :hockey squad, relying
mainly on speed, trounced a fav
ored Temple Owl team by a 6-1
score at the Shaffer Ice Palace
tonight. The two teams will duel
again at 2 p.m. tomorrow after
noon on the Penn State tennis
court ice.
Temple's one point, chalked up
by Ferino, was scored early in the
first period. From then on, through
out a rough game, the Owls were
unable to stop the score-wild Nit
tanymen.
Johnson and Gates, assisted by
Dufford, scored the first two points
for the Lions to take the lead which
was never reliquished.
Varsity Gymnasts
Face Frosh Today
With Roman Pieo definitely
confined to the sidelines with a
wrist injury received in Wednes
day's practice, the freshman gym
team is given more than just a
fighting chance to upset Coach
Gene Wettstone's varsity acro
bats when they clash in Rec Hall
at 2:30 p. m. today. Finals in
Weightlifting competition will be
held at the same time.
The genial Lion mentor was so
puzzled by the equal ability of
both squads, now that the versa
tile ace is out of the lineup, that
on the eve of the meet he predict
ed a deadlock.
The varsity will be banking
heavily on Lou Bordo, Sol Small,
Ed Trybalo is the tumbling stand
out. Captain Stahl confines his
activities to the rope.
A former P.I.A.A. tumbling
Champion,- Harold Zimmerman,
will lead the freshmen on the mats
and parallel' bar. He will get able
assistance from Jim Bush and Syd
Rudman on the bars, sidehorse,
and rings, Ed Anderson on the
mats, Jim Reifsnyder on the rings,*
Charlie Lebow on the horizontal
bar, and Fred Young on the ropes.

The comedy talent of Grant and
Stewart need no recommendation,
but Katharine Hepburn is a con
stant delight and treat for her fans
in a comedy role made to order for
her in "The Philadelphia Story."
She is seen as a Philadelphia so
ciety girl who wants a perfect
husband in a production which
she once played for the stage. The
picture opens at the Cathaum to
day and will continue through
Tuesday.. _A complete program is
scheduled for Saturday with
showings at 12:30, 2:32, 4:24, 6:36,
8:38.

Like two mice who will play
while the cats are away, two minor
sports take over the local scene
today, while the major Lion teams
who are seeing action will be
afield 4. . . Gene Wettstone's air
crobatic gymnasts will battle
among themselves for intersquad
honors, while hockey stick will
replace racquet, and puck will sub
for tennis ball on the frozen sur
face of Penn State's tennis courts,
where the Nittany Lions meet
Temple's Owls in the second of a
two-day series of hockey games.
Up north in Syracuse, Charlie
Speidel's grappling squad will
meet their first real test in Syra
cuse . . . After the sophomore
studded Lion wrestlers get another
victory experience under their
skin, we believe they're in for a
mighty successful season, though
the row is long, tough one to hoe,
with Lehigh, Navy, Princeton, Cor
nell, Michigan, and Army up
ahead.
Down south in Annapolis, State's
surprising cagers will try their
tricks on the Navy, and should win
tonight . . . At the present blister
ing pace they, are setting, the Lion
bucketeers, are also heade'd for
a terrific season . . . Even with
Scotty "Little Miss" Moffatt out
of action last Wednesday, they
turned in one of the flashiest, neat
est games yet seen in Rep Hall.
And so the semester closes, but
before scholastic wars are resum
ed one other major Nittany var
sity aggregation will swing into
action, Dr. Leo Fred Florian
Houck, the sage of Rec Hall's box
ers . . . The good doctor will test
his forces against the Western
Maryland leather tossers a week
from tonight in Rec Hall . . . With
a wealth of mit material on hand,
the debut looks like an auspicious
one from here.
