Penn State now has a Class C ski
trail at its very front dioor as a
result of action taken recently by
the United States Eastern Amateur
Ski Association at its convention
in Btoston.
This recognition o'f the Big Dip

Club” and fo r the Pennsylvania
State Ski Federation headed by
Max Peters, former captain of iihe
Nittany Lion skiers. According to
Peters, the Penns Valley course is
the only C-rated trail within 4'oo
miles of this area.
It takes a C rating to e nter most
of the East’s big ski meets. Until
now this rating has been difficult
to obtain for a Pennsylvania skier.
But now the door is wide open for
those wlho wish to qualify. Re
quirements for a C rating on the
Boalsburg course state that a skier
must make the Big Dipper run in
a minute and 20 seconds.
The Pennsylvania State Ski
Championships were also sanc
tioned at the convention, Peters
noted. They will be held at the
Penns Valley Club Febru'ary 15
and 16. Skiing plans covering the
whole East were discussed' at the
convention, attended l>y~ Buzz
Thurs Con, president of the Penns
Valley Club, and Bob Dunlap,
ohairrdan of the trails committee,
in addition to Peters who repre
sented the Federation.
With Pennsylvania now formal.,
iy recognized as a skiing state, the
Keyston e State can expect big
things when New England tourna
ment time rolls around, Peters be
lieves.
