SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1943, Swimmers In Season Finale This Afternoon With Rutgers Penn Slate’s swimming lineup will be dotted with several new faces this afternoon, when they plunge to their season’s (jnale against a twice-beaten Rutgers squad in Glennland Pool at 2 p. m. ■ Coach Bob Galbraith expects the squad to regain most of the strength lost over the recent flu epidemic, but it will be without the services of star breaststroker, Walt Juve, who left school two days ago for.active service with the army ski troops. ' Substituting for Juve will be Warner, who teams up with Grossman, the Lion regular man in that event. In the 300-yard medley re lay, Galbraith will have his back stroking champ, Bobby Cowell, pairing off with Grossman and Dave Miller, a regular freestyler. .Bill Christy has been discharg ecTfrom the College hospital fol lowing his sickness, and will be ready to meet the gun in the 50- yard freestyle race. Chovet will be the second Nittany man to enter this event If Christy is able to see action in the 400-yard event, he may be used, but all possibilities point to the selection of a two-man team consisting of Herb Hirshfield and Carl Stokes for this race. Hirsh field has been the regular Lion starter in the 100-yard freestyle for several weeks, and took a dead heat for second honors in the Temple meet on Wednesday. ' Unbeaten Rocky Y oung will meet Rutger’s Intercollegiate div ing champ, in what may prove the closest springboard event in the local pool this season. Becket will be the other Lion to see action in the fancy dive competition. Another close event will be the race.' between the 150-yard back strokers. Penn State will again start its Eastern champ, Bobby Cowell, together with Bob Kaith ern,. while the New Jersey team is expected to'rely on Siegel, the bolder of 1:40.9 time. ‘ Iron Man Don Knoll will at tempt to splash to victories in both the 220- and 440-yard free style races, as he did on Wednes day against the Temple Owls, but will be seriously hampered by the standout of the Rutgers squad, Jerry Levin. . Dick Wesner is the remaining Nittany choice for the 220-yard spot, while Goodman, second place winner in the Temple meet, will start with Knoll in the 440- yard event. - Coach Galbraith has refrained •from naming a definite .for the 400-yard race, which is the final event of the meet, and will :not • do so until all other winners have been decided. ‘ } The, Lion mentor said, however, Hefiel Estimates New Semester inrollmenf ‘(Continued from Page One) .upon the closing of contracts with , federal .agencies .concerned. I (feel, however, that .tliege is every, ireason to,.believe that the groups (included in the total estimates for ‘ ;the .slimmer . enrollment will he jseht to the College. Furthermore, iit is possible,” Hetzel said, "that (before summer is over, additional, •.!sprvice" nieii may be. brought, to, ; tho campus. , - ‘‘Since the normal, capacity of; the College for teaching and the facilities of the campus and the i community for housing generally, ■ carry a load in the neighborhood. ; Of 6500,-there-is no question Os to; i our ability to carry a much larger l .program than is anticipated, if it becomes necessary. “According to the present plans, it is expected that the Army Air, Corps contingent of 500 will re port about April 1. This will be followed by 500 advanced Army engineering students about April 5. It is possible, however, that the actual instructional program for this group will not start until April 12. “No definite date has been set for the Naval contingent, but it is probable that this detachment will be ready to commence work about, July 1. ! “The regular work of the sum- j 'mer sessions will be carried for ward as usual.” j that the team will be chosen from freestyler Hirshfield, Cowell; Cho vet, Wesner, Miller, Aman, An derson, or several other regular Nittany mermen. Today’s meet will prove of special interest to Galbraith, for back in 1924, he captained the Rutgers’ team to national fame, and copped the National Collegi ate diving championship the same year. IM Basketball Schedule Ends; Leagues Prepare For Rec Hall Playoffs By 808 BOGER Promising Penn State sports fans plenty of action as the regu lar season ends, playoffs for the leading teams of the seven frater nity and four independent IM bas ketball leagues will begin after spring vacation, when the strong est teams will battle for the two league championships. Games plaved' Sunday night and the first part of next week will determine the final winners, as several teams are tied for first place in many fraternity leagues. Two teams will be chosen,, ac cording to Manager Lee Rein heimer, to represent the Indepen dents, while the fraternities will have only one team participating because of the number of leagues they represent. Leading league one of the fra ternities is Beta Theta Pi No. 2 with a record of four wins and no losses. They have several good players in their lineup and hold ing an undefeated record, will make a strong bid for a chance in the finals. Beta Theta Pi No. 1, also with a record of four to zero rounds out the Beta tradition of good athletic teams. Manager Ernie Giles, a big factor in their success has been a consistent scorer as they currently hold down the Mad in the second league. In league three, two strong teams are fighting for the chance that will send only one of them into the playoffs as Sigma Alpha Epsi lon opposes the favored Kappa Sig ma. SAE boasts two fine players in George Major and Albert Swan, while the Kappa Sigs were paced most of the season by Del Helt who is good at -tossing baskets from all parts of the floor. . League four' of the fraternities is almost" decided as Phi Kappia Sigma holds a lead of four victories .and- no iosses while in league -five Beta Sigma Rho contests the five to zero record of Sigma Nu. The Sigma Nu’s have, been consistently strong all season with two expert players in Dick Yoder and Gordon Wolfkiel, but their opponents are very close with a string of four victories and one loss. In the biggest event before the playoffs two undefeated league six teams will battle for their league leadership when Phi Kappa Sigma and Sigma Pi, both with five vic tories, will present a preview of the coming'Rec Hall Finals.

Competing for league 7 honors are Sigma Chi, Phi Kappa and Sigma Pi No. 2. This league ex hibits several of the season’s finest players in Bob Shattuck and Paul Ropp of the Sigma’s.

Y., Feb. 26. Coach Wettstone and 11 Lion gym nasts arrived here late today in time for a light workout in prepa ration for their meet with Army tomorrow afternoon. Both teams ar v e at full strength and the match should find both squads in top form for the com petition. The Cadets, undefeated on home grounds since 1932 when Navy turned the trick, will present a team exceptionally strong on the ropes. Their tumbling, however, is not expected to he up to par and the Blue and White has an advan tage in this event. Each Has Won Two So far this season, both gym nastic squads have captured two matches, although the soldiers have lost a meet to Temple while the Lions have yet to taste defeat. Last week toe Blue and White toppled Indiana, 13 to 2, while the disposed of the Hoosier squad by a 12 to 3 count. Penn State’s advantage, however, is slight when t.he past records of Army are taken into considera tion. Last year the Lions came from the Point with a 27-27 tie, the best that they have been able' to garner against Army for the past several seasons.

Small on Streak Toth, Army side horse specialist, will be striving to topple Small from the list of the undefeated in side horse competition. McGee on the ropes, Watkins on the rings, Schatz and Reed on the h-bar, and M. Martin on the mats will carry the brunt of the attack for the Cadets. The Lions, with one of their best balanced squads in recent years, will be. out to .extend their win streak to three victories and to defend their league title. Meet Temple Next : Temple will ’ play, host to the Nittany Lions at Philadelphia next Saturday in a' match that promises to be one -of the best, for, both squads.. The Blue and White will then move to Rec Hall where they will entertain league members in the Eastern Intercollegiate Cham pionships scheduled 'for March 13.

Bell AC, for a time eliminated, moved back into the race to vie for playoff honors when Allen Co op suffered its first defeat. The AC’s have plenty of power .in Manager Herb Wolfe, who excels as a passer although he- is also good at swishing them through the hoop. Allen Co-op and Fair mont Hall present good lineups to complete the trio that will battle for the elimination of one of its members. The highly favored Vagabonds are a sure bet in league one.
