Between the Lions
If you think the Nittany gymnasts are top caliber, you're not
alone. Here's proof: Tomorrow's meet at Temple, where they don't
have AA books, was a sellout on Tuesday.
Speaking ocauservetively, this contest will be a pip. Both teams
are undefeated and the 1948 Eastern Intercollegiate team champion_
ship hinges on the outcome. Other competing schools have been
eliminated; now all that's left is
the battle royal between the Owl
and Lion
We got the dope straight from
the Lion's mouth that NittanY
Coach Gene Wettshone is counting
heavily on "slamming" the rope
climb, that is, taking the first
three places in the event. Al
though other events count equal
ly, performance on the r ope climb
will reportedly be a key factor in
whether State emerges victor or
victim.
ROPE CLIMBING
Speaking of rope climbing, Nor
%trod Lawler, number two Nit
tanyman in this event, graduated
to varsity ranks from a regular
Phtys ed daft in Roc Hall. Al
though Lawler had no experience

and never toyed with the idea of
trying out for a sports team.,
Coach Wettstone persuaded him
to try climbing the rope. His offi
cial time of 4.3 seconds in the
Navy meet bespeaks the coach's
confidence in him.
But, his is not the only success
story. Lawfer's cohort on the
climb, Joe Linn, Saturday nego
tiated the 2i) feet in 3.9 seconds,
an amazing mark when one con
siders that this is his first season
as a rope climber. Unfortunately
it's also his last, since he's
senior.
Incidentally, in his freshman
year at the College, Linn tried
out for the team but didn't
make the grade as a side horse
performer.

Miragliolia Trio
Paces Virginia
The three Miragliotta brothers.
among the biggest names in in
tercollegiate boxing, will high--
light tomorrow night's matches
when the high-flying Cavaliers
from Virginia invade Rec Hall.
Basil dons the mitts in the 135-
pound class. The fleet-footed
ringster last season was unde
feated in eight dual meets and
this year sports a 3-2-1 record,
the draw was against Michigan
State's Chuck Davey, 135-pound
National champ who last week
TKO'd Curt Crooks.
Jimmy, the fightingest of the
three brothers, represents the
Cavaliers for his fourth boxing
season. He is a two-time winner
of the Eastern boxing crown in
the 135-pound class. Competing
in the 145-pound class this sea
son, he has won all six bouts in
an impressive manner. Two wins
were by the knockout route.
Joe competes in the 155-weight
class. Last season he won five and
lost two. A fine ring general, Joe
is the trickiest of the trio. He
boasts a 3-1-1 record to date.
Another ace performer for the
Cavaliers is 175-pound Ralph
Shoaf. Shoaf will long be remem
bered by Nittany ring fans for his
thrilling battle last season in the
Intercollegiates against Syra
cuse's Julie LeVine. Undefeated
in dual meets last season, the
rugged slugger participated in
five meets this season, winning
three by knockouts and one by a
decision.
Other Riagsters
Bolling Izzard, last season's
heavyweight battler, this season
competes in the 165-pound divis
ion. In the first season with the
Virginians is Allen Hollings
worth, a 125-pound scrapper.
Another newcomer to Cavalier
boxing circles is Grover Master
son, a powerful slugger who
boasts a very impressive six win
record to date, two coming via
TKO's.
Two heavyweights have re
ceived the starting nod alter
nately each meet. Allen Smith, a
freshman, trades his starting po
sition with La•psley Hamblen, a
member of the Virginia football
team.
Gym Managers
Head manager of the gym team
this Year is Sieve Martin, while
first assistant managers are Bob
Sankey, Francis Felder and Abe
THE
Tracksfers Compete with Top Foes
Competition, which has always
been tough for the Penn State
track team, will reach its zenith
tomorrow when five Nittany run
ners meet champions of all de
scriptions in the Knights of Co
lumbus Games at New York.
The Wernermen will not enter
the meet unequipped, however,
since two track stars, Gerald
Karver and Horace Ashenfelter,
boast Intercollegiate AAAA
championships in the mile and
two-mile runs.
Jim Gehrdes, although ineligi
ble for the collegiate meet, will
compete in the K of C meet in
the high hurdles. Gehrdes, who
topped the timbers in 7 and 3/10
seconds at Army, will compete
against Harrison Dillard, AAU
champ, and Ed Dugger, Dayton
A.C. ace.
Competing in the 60-yard dash,
Jim Robinson will have top-flight
competition against two AAU
finalists, Bill Mathis and Ed Con
well.
Although Ashenfelter won the
IC-4A championship last week,
lOn the Mats 1
Lehigh lost its first meet of the
season to Navy Saturday, as the
Middies triumphed, 18-11. The
win kept the sailor win streak
alive . . . The future admirals
have won 45 straight dual
meets . . .
Defending champions will be
the rule rather than the exception
at the Eastern Intercollegiate
wrestling tournament next Fri
day and Saturday at Bethlehem.
. . . A total of six champions
from last year will be back . . .
Pilgrim Mcßaven and Ed Erick
son, Lehigh; Wayne Smith and
Captain John Fletcher of Navy;
Stan Thevenet, Army; and Hank
O'Sbaugnessey, Columbia, are the
1947 titlists returning . . .
Army's title hopes dropped
somewhat last week when Frank
Mansell of Yale threw Thevenet,
Cadet 155-pounder, in 5:09 . . . It
was Thevenet's first loss . . .
Navy climbed into the favorite
role in the EIWA tourney with
the Lehigh win. Coach Ray
Sw'artz's grapplers had won the
team title for four straight years
before Lehigh upset them last
year.
