Even at the expense of broken precedent, it seems to us unwise to state, a specific-policy to be followed week after .week concerning the material and. methods to be-used, in this daily (we hope) column. Much'better to w<ait and see just- what this, sport.scribblin’ is.all about. Then too, wouldn’t it be embarrassing to work,-o,ut:,a. neat little policy only, to find that it was wetter than the varsity tennis courts. So we'll! limit ourselves-to these three .general pledges,and do our best to'follow fhern—ffairness in dealing with things athletic between ihe Lions and iheir .opponents;, an attempt to keep alive a tradition that for nine years has been "Between The Lions"; and finally, a big .ger and better,Penn State— athletically. Last Look If you haven’t completely forgotten Penn State’s four man squad and their impressive (yes, impressive) showing at the wrestling na- tionals held at'East Lansing over the weekend, we would like to take one last look out Michigan way. It’s too bad when four boys fight their level best as Penn 'State representatives in a national tourney and return with a third place out of twenty-three competing teams that the general campus greet ing is, “Too bad fellows, what' happened?” or “What happened to .Charlie Ridenour, thought he was going to win?” Maybe having so many winning teams makes us a little spoiled. Maybe we forget that-even though ; Charlie is .the ‘biggest thing we’ve seen around here thdt there might be other wrestlers just as -good or even a little* bet ter. Charlie, lost to the big ten, champion, a kid who has never been defeated in college. He knew just how to tie up Charlie’s legs and put him on-the defensive and that’s the story in-brief. 'With-three -Lions fighting through. consolation bouts of the best competition in : the, nation to, capture thirds, .and, give the .team, third wouldn’t it sound better-to use-this "greeting: “Nice going fellows,-you really turned i the-heat, on.” Tribute f etal Sportsman Billy •/Sheridan, geiUal Lehigh grappling coach friend of Navy-bound Charlie Speidel, attended ihe nationals ,although he had.no boys entered. .Meeting np with Lehigh's bitterest-mat rivals, the coacliless-Lions,-hie was only too glad to take-them-in. hand, give advice on-the mat and in general afford them of-that psychological punch that only a good coach is capable of. -He also, took under his wing two other teams which were without their coaches during the tourney. -From:this corner come tributes to both a.fine coach and:to ihe high level which intercollegiate athletics can attain. ’ TablssTurnedOnHouck Sidelights on last night’s boxing banquet at which Billy Richards was named new captain—tables were turned on Doctor Leo Houck when waitresses served him the standard training table meal of steak, baked potato, spinach, melba toast and milk, while the rest of the squad indulged in more fancy delicacies. Delicacies that only the good Doctor -had been privileged ;to partake of during-the season. Farewell speeches by members of the squad brought out most clearly; the great opportunity which they have had in contact with their coach, known to them as ‘/Fred.” As-this year’s captain and EIBA champ,-Bob-Baird expressed it, “Leo, in.my mind, is the great est iiofrich of any sport in any school in the. country. My association and friendship with,him has been one of the high spots in my college experience.” ARMOURS Whole or String Half lb. COOKS MARKET g 115 S.
