On Campus Big Ten Champs Meet Gym Team A well-balanced University of Minnesota gym team, defending Big Ten champion, invades the Lions! lair today to furnish the State acrobats with their tough est competition of the season. The meet is scheduled to get un der way in Rec Hall at .2 p. m. The Gophers bring only four competitors with- them on their initial invasion of State College but their decisive victory over Chicago, loser to State last Satur day, indicates a definite threat to Coach Gene Wettstone’s min ions. Included in the visitors' lineup is Co-Captain Bon Han ning, national champ on the par allel bars and Co-Captain Delver Daly, Big Ten all-around cham pion. The two leaders are given considerable support by Newton Loken and Frank Grossman. To stave off the Mid-Western ers’ threat, Wettstone will rely chiefly on his four consistent point winners,- Roman Pieo, Lew Bordo, Sol Small and John Try bala. Not daunted by Minneso ta’s reputation, the Lion mentor expects State to emerge a close winner if all four reliables per form trye to form. The Lions have won two out of three meets to date, defeating Navy and Chi cago while losing to Arxny - Nilfany Tankmen fate Strong Rutgers Team Conceded the Lions toughest opponent this yeaT, the powerful Rutgers swimming team comes here at 2 p.m. today to battle the Nittanymen in their last borne meet. In view of the fact that Rutgers decisively drubbed Penn last week and that the Quakers promptly downed-the State swim mers, the Lions’ chances .for turn ing the tables on the visitors are slim. But as Coach Bob Galbraith says, “Swimming is one sport that is hard to predict,” and the tilt with Rutgers may find the State splashers on the long end of the score when the spray has blown away.
