J., 60 1 / 2 -60, to captdre the National AAU title at Jersey City Saturday. The Swiss teams holds the 1944 championship. Steve Greene was the only State entry to place first. He successfully defended the title he won last year in the rope climb event. Although four seconds slower than his record- smashing four seconds of 1944, the climber easily won first place. His only competition came from his own teammates. ,Marvin Man gus and Mike Gaitonis took sec ond third places respectively and Navy; Trainee Ed Hobart, a new comer who competed for the first first time in national events, split the fourth position. Lion domination of this event proved the turning point in' the meet, according to Coach Gene Wettstone who believes the point and a half won by Hobart proved the deciding margin. Greene brought in points in three other events by copping thirds in: the side horse and rings and a fifth honor in parallel bars. Hal Frey, 1944 tumbling cham pion, turned in a good perform ance by winning second places in tumbling and the long horse, fourths in Indian Clubs and all around, a fifth in the rings, and sixth places in the high bar and parallel bars. Other point winners for Penn State were Bill Wintersteen, last year's title-holder and third this year in the Indian Club swing; Stan Lourimore, fourth in the same event; Tim Petroff, fourth in tumbling; and Warren Neiger, fourth in the horizontal bar, fifth in the long horse, and sixth in all around.
