Champ Returns To Lineu
Jimmy Lewis, EIBA 165-pound
champion, returns to Penn State’s
boxing lineup in Rec Hall to
morrow night against Army after
Lions Seek sth Victory
Over Improved Big Red
Sporting an even record with
victories over Army and Colum
bia and later losses to Yale and
Lehigh, the Cornell grapplers
aim to rebound against Charlie
Speidel’s cagey matmen in Rec
Hall tomorrow night in the fi
nale of a weekend sports double
header.
The Nittanv Lions will en
counter an up and down team,
one which has . garnered over
whelming wins over the Cadets
■' and Columbia’s Lion buf lost two
tightly-matched battles because
of a lid-ridden squad.
In full strength for the first
time since their Columbia match,
the Bears will be led by Captain
Rog Harrison, a crafty heavy
weight. Harrison will clash with
Sophomore Jack Kerns, who
fought a close bout with Navy’s
national champ, John Harrell,
last week before was pinned.
Chuck Rohrer, 165-pounder
who has been the Lion’s rrfost
steady performer, probably will
•encounter Fred Riggs, who will
seek to avenge' the overtime;‘de
feat handed by Rohrer last year.
Another Bdar holdover from last
opposition is another Smoky Cijy
team. The Nittany passers should
have little tt-ouble gaining a sec
ond win- over Carnegie Tech
away on March 5.
THE DAILY COLLEGIAN

In 145-Pound Post
Jimmy Lewis, eastern inter
collegiate 165-pound boxing
champion, will make his .first ap

division.
Penn State’s lineup tomorrow
night will be the fifth different

Houck is planning to start Bob
Baird at 145, replacing Homer
Hoffman and moving Baird down
to.his natural weight.
Smokey Mall will drop to the
165-pound class, leaving the 175-
pound battle to Paul Scally.
Houck will chose between Wade
Mori, Lion football guard, and
Harry Masters for the heavy
weight assignment.
Doctor Houck is predicting a
spectacular evening, regardless
of how the meet score turns out.
The Blue Band, Scabbard and
Blade in full uniform, and num
erous Army dignitaries are in
cluded in the Doctor’s show plans.
Gymnasfs Prepare For
Big Ten Champions;
Frosh Finish Unbeaten
While the varsity gymnasts
prepare to meet their toughest
foe to date in University of Min
nesota’s Big Ten champions here
tomorrow, the undefeated fresh
man team has packed its uni
forms for another year, content
to rest on its laurels after down
ing four straight opponents.
Starting with a. close victory
over the varsity, the yearling
acrobats swept through Temple,
Navy and the strong Germantown
Y.M.C.A. team.
Captain Harold Zimmerman
paced the frosh combination with
sterling performances on the
parallel bars and in tumbling,
followed closely by Ed Ander- •
son, who performed in the same
two events, as well as on the side
horse. Jim Bush, Jim Reifsnyder,
Fred Young, Charlie Lebow and
Ray Lee rounded out a well-bal-'
anced team. Additional point get
ters were Bill Gotherman, Char
lie Warrington, and Mike Opolka.
year, Forbes Brown, meets Joe
Valle, Lion 175-pounder. Brown
wrestled at heavyweight last
year and bowed to Warren El
liott.
In a 145-pound elimination
bout last night, Glen Alexander
edged Allan Crabtree, 4-3. Alex
ander wrestled the climax bout
against Navy last week when he
trounced Jack Blue to push the
Nittany matmen to a safe lead.
No changes are expected in the
State lineup with Captain Frank
Gleason heading the Nittany
grapplers toward their fifth tri

Hockey Team To Meet
Carnegie Tech Tonight
Having had no practice since
the game with Temple in Janu
ary, the Lion hockeymen will
play a return engagement with
strong Carnegie Tech at Johns
town tonight.
Tech, who lost to the Nittany
team 4-1 in the first meet-, has a
vastly improved squad, accord
ing to Coach A. F. Davis. How
ever, with the possible return of
Gates, and Art Fowler, ineligible
last semester, the. Lions will
probably be able,, to overcome
their lack of practice.
