THE COLLEGIAN
'Diminutive' Frey
Stars as Matman,
Gymnast, Vaulter
Hal Frey's just a mite of a man,
but he's still the hardest working
athlete on the Penn State cam
pus.
Gene •Wettstone, Lion coach,
says the diminutive Lehighton
youth is "just about the hardest
worker I've ever had in the gym
sport."
Before the gym team's entry
into the National AAU champion
ships was officially sanctioned
there was no competition for Frey
in that sport,•so he turned to wres
tling.
In his first year as a matman he
showed remarkable improvement
from week to week, scored two
dual meet victories, and, finished
third in the 129-pound class at the
Eastern intercollegiates.
Then, with wrestling at an end,
he returned to his favorite • gym
sport, finishing second in the tum
bling event of the National AAU
and fourth in the all-around to
amass 19 points for the title-4win
fling Lion team.
The year before, with his right
foot in a cast, he won the Eastern
intercollegiate all-around title and
the National AAU tumbling title.
After this year's gym competi
tion he joined the track squad and
four days later was rated the
team's second best pole vaulter.
A discharged veteran who serv
ed nearly a year in the Seabees,
he plans to take it easy this sum
mer.
"I'm going to work on the farm
—or maybe drive a truck again,"
he said.
Bks. 30 ASTP Champions
Championship of the AST?

Cornell Stickmen Defeat Lions, 7-6,
For Season's Fifth Consecutive Loss
A last-half rally by the Cornell
University lacrosse team edged
out the Nittany Lion stickmen, 7-6,
Saturday, for the Lions' fifth con
secutive loss of the season.
The game, which was played on
the Golf Course Field before a.
small crowd during a continuous
drizzle, was close throughout, with
neither team taking a safe lead.
The Lions, playing their best game
of the season, dominated play in
the first half and held a 2-0 lead
at the midpoint.
The second half, however, was
a different story. The Red began
to click with a well guarded de
fense and set shots on the offense,
while the Linn defense weakened
in the last quarter.
Until the last six minutes of the
fourth quarter the Lions held a
6=4 margin, but the Ithacans, with
some fast, well-placed shots, tied
it up with less than a minute of
play remaining. With about . 15
seconds left, the Lion goalie took
the ball out from behind the net
and passed it. A Cornell man took
tne pass,.turned and shot the ball
in for the clincher.
"Cornell really played an in
spired game in the second half,"
Coach Thiel said after the match.
"We outplayed them in the'
first
and third quarters, but they were
superior from then on."
The Lions will play the Big Red
again at Ithaca oh June 9. For the
return meet, Coach Thiel has this
week and
,most of next to iron out
the errors of the first contest.'
