Penn State also garnered third place in the Third Corps Area matches and a second berth in the Hearst Trophy ROTC Illll!llllllilllillllllllllllll!llllllli!l!!lllllll!!llllllllll!lllll!lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll!llllll!!lliillllll!llllllllllll!llH If you’re attending the NCAA bouts this weekend, you're prob ably most interested in the actual warfare which goes on inside the squared circle, and we don't blame you. because that’s what you're paying for. 3u* on the sidelines, and in the dressing roms. there’s a group of guys as great as the mitt-flingers you see crawling through the ropes. They're the coaches of the NCAA, and they're here for bus- iness, too, Take for instance, Leo Houck, Penn State's pride and joy, whose boys may not be faring too well in their fistic encounters, but who himself is as rabid a fan for this leather business as you'll ever .find. Leo. today at a coaches meeting, will propose that the NCAA mentors offer their services to the United States government in planning and sponsoring boxing programs in the nation's Army camps. The good Doctor Houck is, by the way, president of the Na tional Collegiate Boxing Coaches Association. A resolution of this type, backed by the NCAA, would be defin itely a feather in intercollegiate boxing’s hat. And intercollegiate boxing, believe it or not, can use a few feathers in its bonnet, even though the tournament now in progress is a decided spur in its favor. One more thipg is on the Doctor’s mind. Saturday morning he will go before the rules committee on the NCAA and ask that the rule which knocked Billy Mazzocco out.of intercollegiate fistic war fare be repealed. It was at Houck’s suggestion that the rule was adopted several years ago. So far as we know, the only college which has been found guilty since the rule was enacted has been Penn State! And the good Doc tor is sick of seeing some of the other getting away with almost pro fssional members on their teams. As the rule is stated, it is almost up to the individual college to enforce it. Penn State has complied with the law. We could name others, now entered in the present tournament, who have broken it beyond any stretch of the imagination. If Leo Houck, who has the college game down deep in his fight ing heart, wants the rule rescinded, we think it must be for the best. Other coaches must feel the same' way. They’re the coaches who are working along the sideline, in the dressing rooms, to make intercollegiate boxing a sport, not a racket. Intramural Volleyball, Basketball Tournaments. Wind.

The nearest ice rink, at which the Lions played all "home” games, is the Schaef fer Ice , Palace at Johnstown. With the exception of the goalie position, usually filled by Larry- Lightbody, but now filled by Wayne Bitner because of Lightbody’s illness, the lineup probably will remain unchang ed. Cancelled Tuffs Match Delays Tennis Opener A recent announcement from Tufts cancelling their match with State’s tennis team on April 5, gives the Lion racquet wielders two additional weeks to prepare for their first compe tition with the West: Poiht Ca dets here on April 19. According to Coacli Ted Roethke, the team is better bal anced than last, year’s aggrega tion, but this year’s schedule is tougher. Taking these factors into account. Roethke predicted yesterday, "if we break even this year, we’ll have a good season.” The team is stressing a more aggressive type of game which means taking the net more of ten. Last year the team put more emphasis on doubles play ing. and the results it brought in several matches makes it ad \ iseable to repeat the same practice this season. As for State's schedule. Roethke can see no soft spots '■’.i it at all. with Pittsburgh and Gettysburg rated as the two weakest opponents G b lligu:n> i:'3c!o Grantland AG-Al'l'" 10:1m dimino ,V rl’ War I Complete Summaries Immediately After The Bouts.
