Editor— When Dr. Houck’s lads meet the Boys from Syracuse in Rec Hall tonight,- spouts fans will see a team that is exceptionally strong in “light” weights battle a team that is exceptionally strong in “heavy” weights. Houck’s point winners have usually been grouped among the lighter lads, while Syracuse has carried off most of its decisions with boys in the heavier pound age brackets. The outcome of any situation of this type, one can readily see, is always uncertain depending on whether one team can finish before the other gets started or the other started before the one finishes. - The highlight of the evening will be the heavyweight bout in which Syracuse will pit its sen sational veteran against States sensational newcomer. In 24 in tercollegiate scraps "Toots" Mir abito has never been defeated; on the other 'hand, however, newcomer. Frank Havirylak has run up a surprising bill-of dam age in his two varsity appear ances, none of which has gone'-' more than one round. Mirabito, who chopped down our tank-trap, Aldo Cenci, last year, will be favored to extend his rec ord as usual. Buit Hawrylak, with his unorthodox stance and biis mule-'kick left and right, is • the type of fellow to discredit the con ventional. About the only thing that is reasonably certian in (this fight is the time element; one can be pretty sure it will be short—very short. Here’s hoping Hawrylak gets in there with his'*“mule-kick” before “Toots’’ can cut loose with his “howitzers.” ■ Houck himself will be extending a record with tonight’s bouts. When his team comes onto the floor, the Doctor will have ban daged the grand total of 1952 hands, of course, not his own)— and that’s not counting the hands he has bandaged in the annual Intercollegiate Tourneys. All owin g approximately 15 fepl of gauge per hand, that Would mean that Leo has wrap ped more than {lye and one-half miles of the stuff/ in his 21 years of coaching here at State—w)iich yfpuld make a nice-sized clothes line. The landlady figured that that much gauze, plus his total for the Intercollegiates, properly spliced, would be enough to stretch from Rec Hall to the rear porch of J,eo’s residence in Lancaster. Naturally, I didn’t contest point—l know nothing about ten sile strength, anyhow—but I be lieve the gasoline pumps at Amity Hall would be a safer bet. Following ithe boxing -windup tonight, Paul Campbell’s varsity bonebenders will make their first evening appearance of the season in Rec Hall against Temple. The Owls have lost every var sity holdover from last season ex cept 175-lb. Joe Johnson, and are expected to crowd Syracuse and Lock Haven in the scoring depart ment. Conrad, who still has not fully recovered from his injury at Princeton, .will not start for Campbell tonight, which leaves the 175-pound spot in doubt. Every other weight' division looks reasonably certain from here i SUBSCRIBE NOWS—FOR YOUH DAILY COLLEGIAN. THE DAILY COLLEGIAN Gent Leads Scoring ... . . .

Hockepen Meet Drexel Monday Coach Art Davis will be leading an inexperienced team on the ice when the £enn State hockey team invades the Philadelplyh Arena to meet Drexel Tech next Monday afternoon. Drexel has always had a good team in intercollegiate ho.ckey circles and this' year’s team will prove no exception if the advance predictions of the Quaker City sports writers prove to be true. Although Penn Stake's team has had hardly any practice this year, only three sessions to be correct, Davis has great expectations for his proteges. Davis will take fifteen players with him for Monday’s game. Final selection of the squad will take place this afternoon, Davis stated. Probable starting line to face off against the Engineers of Drexel Tech in Monday’s’ game include Art Gladstone at center and Fred Bernbaum and Ted Cauffman at the wing positions. ’ A great deal of competition is being waged by Stu Sussman, last year’s second string stopper, and Jimmy MoKqchnie from last year’s freshman team. Davis may take both boys with him on the Drexel trip. PENN STATE CLASS RINGS L. G. Balfour Co. 109 S.

Floyd Bohn and his Temple wrestling team will arrive on campus this morning for their meet with Coach Paul Campbell’s Blue and White squad in Rec Hall at 8:30 p. m., directly following the boxing matches against the Or angemen from Syracuse. The meet will be State’s fourth for the cur rent season. Weigh-ins, for the evening bouts will take place at 3:30 p. m. in the team- locker rooms of the gymna sium. At that time eligibility for the various poundage brackets will be determined. Major item in tonight’s meet is that Co-captain Charlie Ridenour may not have an opponent to face in the 128-pound class. Up to last night, when this morning’s issue of the Daily Collegian went to press, there was no word from the Philadelphia college that a cap able performer had been found to All the Owl’s vacant 128-pound slot. However, Coach Bohn may bring along with his team, a wrestler to (neet Ridenour. Otherwise, Coach Campbell not ed three changes in' Penn State’s lineup for tonight’s fracas. In the 121-pound class, Kryder Mattem, who saw action in the Syracuse match, will replace Bob Lowrie. Mattern will be out for his second win of the season when he meets the Owl’s Stephen Kiwatsky in the starting grappling contest tonight. Second change in the lineup will find Charley Dipner filling the 155- pound spot of Gardner Lindzey. ■Matched .against heavy odds in the Princeton ipeet last Saturday af ternoon, Linclzey fell victim to the power of the Orange and Black’s Corothers. Dipner will be seen in his first varsity wrestling match when he meets Temple frosh, Wil liam Trexler. Because of an injury suffered in the Princeton meet, Fred Conrad, will be replaced by Ogden Samler in the 175-pound class. Samler, too, will be wrestling for Penn State for the first time. His op ponent will be the Owl’s captain, Joe Johnson, the only veteran of the 1942 Temple team. The remaining part of the line up will remain intact with Sam Harry opposing Clyde Wood at 136; A 1 Crabtree battling against Thomas Aissis at 145; Fred Reeve meeting Lloyd Riss at 165; and ■heavy Bob Morgan against either Michael Jarmoluk or Francis Sho lomkas. under the colors of the Shanahan A.
