.TIIURSDAY; .JANUARY 23, 1947
Between . the.. Lions
"Wihy is it- that members of (such and suoh an organiation) are
always selected as, head Managers?" has been the question asked of
me by indepe.ndenit and iilraternity men on numerous occasions,
Frankly, I .Wasn't able to dive a suitable answer to such a ques
tion, so I consulted ."Ike" Gilbert, , assistanit'graduate manager of att . "-
leties—ithe man who knows the managerial arrangement.
Acecnding to Gilbert, the setup has been this. An unlimited num
ber of sinihorriore candidates make up the "seconds" list, three juniors
are "ifirSts" and three .seriiors—one a head Manager and two associi
ates--:Compldte the roste r . for each sport.
An exeCultive..dorrimitttee composed of. the Guadnarte Manager of
.4!qhleities, President -of the A'thl&ic Association, the coach, the retiring
team captain and' retiring head Manager make the selections. '
The eammilttee ¢ll6lofdat , S,. each of whom has a vote, elect thelhree
"firsts" amid the head manager. A majorhy vote determines th e win
ner.
Any sc[phoinore is eligible- to try', out for th e "seconds" position,
as an unlirdited nuinber of candidates is Carried. From this group, the
three juniors who serve as "fiirsts" 'suggest the Ave best—in their
opinion—ldandidates. to the , e xecuitiv e commlittee, whid.h in turn votes
for three whowill he -the. "firsts" next season.
From the three "arste.' of th e entu:ent • season, the committee
selects one to Serv e as 'head, manager with the other two being named
asSeeitates.
"Dualing•kihe war h years," Gilbert said, "Lit was improssible to limit
the head managerial Post to a senior, kr sometimes the situation was
so critical that a freshman had to perform the dulties of a mlanager.
And it may be several years 'before our iforrner setup is wholly in
practice."
Th e return of veterans also brought mlany students back who at
one time or another 'served 'on a manager's stafll. "In the case of first
assistants, they were taken back . into the setup as 'thirsts' and were
eeligible For the head arilanager spat the [following 'year," Gilbert said.
On th e .other hand, a Student elected head •inanager just bEctore
entening the service was leff in a peculiar position upon his return,
To t ; in th e . meantiape another Manager was selected to carry on the
duties. -
!sudh. was ithp ease of Ken Rummage—eleated boxing manager in
.1943 just beEore enterling.th e service—and.sophom!ore James E. Work,
who Was selected to manage the squad this year.
GENTLEMEN'S:AGREEMENT
ilawever, an agreement was reached beThWeen the two and they
n ow serve es 00-menagers. Both will take turns in Managing the mitt_
men When they trevell Por away mlabdhes.
Amid that's the setup. .Ef you Stilt think there's Some Partiality
shown, then get The fellows from your organization to try out for the
different managerial pbsitions offered with the 17 sports carried on at
Penn 'State.
