Trackman Encounter
Undefeated Panthers
Sixty-nine track and field men will compete on the New Beaver
Field track at 1 o'clock tomorrow when the Lion track team, sport-
Mg a record of one win and one loss, encounters Pittsburgh with
an undefeated string of three decisions.
Heading the Lion squad will be Jerry Karver. The Boyertown
flash will run his final race on the College track tomorrow since he
will compete in the Los Angeles Coliseum Relays next week when
the Wernermen meet Colgate.
Karver will be out to crack the
4:11.6 mile record he set last year.
Track Coach Chick Werner said
that he would like to see him get
"one fast mile under his belt" be
fore the Olympic tryouts early
this Summer.
"Naturally," Coach Werner said,
"there are many factors that can't
be pre-determined in a mile race.
A wet track or a strong wind or
any number of factors could
throw Jerry off his pace."
A second record, the meet rec
ord of 4:21.2 that was set in 1928
by Bill Cox of the College, is also
in line for a slashing in tomorrow's
meet
SUDZINA RUNS
Competition in the mile run
will focus on Ed Sudzina, erratic
Pitt runner. Sudzina joined the
Panthers in the Fall, left the team
in the Winter, and suddenly ap
peared on the lineup for the
Spring meets.
Three other milers, Bill Camp,
Jay Nielson and Sam Camp, are
listed on the Pittsburgh slate, but
Horace Ashenfelter, Bill Shuman
and Bob Auman are expected to
give the Lions the edge in the
event.
Horace Ashenfelter, undefeated
in dual meet competition this
year, heads the list of two-milers
scheduled to toe the starting line.
Although Karver will not run the
two-mile as in previous meets,
John Bates and Ted Horner will
try to fill the gap left by the team
captain.

hurdles, has record-making Jim
Gehrdes in the 120 high hurdles
and 220 lows.
Galloping Jim set the Penn
State record for the low hurdles
two weeks ago against Ohio State
when he crossed the low barriers
in :23.5 Jerold Sticker, Pittsburgh,
holds the meet record in :23.7 and
Gehrdes will be aiming at this
mark tomorrow afternoon.
Although he lowered the Penn
State record in the 120 high
hurdles, Gehrdes' time of about
:14.1 in the Ohio State meet was
not put on the record books since
he finished second to Duff, who
boasted :13.9.
Six other hurdlers, Bob Harri
son, Gene Love, John Senior,
Leon Cottrell, George Cleveland
and Bill Dottermusch, will run
with Gehrdes in the 120- and 220-

Cuba Wants Gene
Uncle Sam's not the only one
seeking Gymnastic Coach Gene
Wettstone as Olympic mentor.
Last week he received a letter
from Cuban officials requesting
his services for the London
Games this summer.
They remember the fall of '46
when he journeyed south to
coach the Cuban team to the Cen
tral American championship.
"The letter's written in Span
ish but I've translated enough to
know they want me to come back
down," Wettstone said.
"Although I had a wonderful
time and made many friends in
1946, I can't return. You see, they
don't know I'm already coach of
one Olympic team—Uncle Sam's."
