Nittany Matmen
Duel Middies
Penn State's hard-luck grappling team, vying for fits fifth victory
of the season tomorrow at Annapolis, Md., runs smack into Navy's
mighty matmen, unbeaten in dual meet competition since 1942.
Coach Charlie Speidel's proteges, hoping to finish the season
with a triumph, face a herculean task. The Middies, surprisingly tied
by a pestiferous Princeton aggregation two weeks ago, have waded
through 52 intercollegiate
matches without a setback
Last Saturday, the future Ad
mirals upset Lehigh's band wag
on by grasping a 19-16 decision
from the potent Engineers. Le
high, fresh from a convincing 27-3
victory over Franklin and Mar
shall, saw its EIWA title aspira
tions dealt a severe blow as a
result of the loss.
On Feb. 5, the Lehigh muscle
men edged the Lions by a 14-11
count.
INJURIES
Coach Speidel, bothered by in
juries to key performers all sea
son, was the receiver of some
good news this week when he
learned that State College's Jack
Dreibilbis, unscathed in three
128-pound skirmishes, is again
available for duty.
Kryder Mattern, who fought at
Dreib.?lbis' post 'against Temple,
may still see action, but it is
likely that the unbeaten Drebel
bis will be the Nittanies' repre
sentative tomorrow.
The remainder cf the lineup
will be the same. except for pos
sible changes in the 145- and 165-
pound weights. Larry Shallcross,
victor in his last two outings. and
Micicey Silverman are both on
tap for the 1 Ari-nnunri position.
HETRICK
Bob Hetrick and Bill Corman
seek the 165-pound berth, but
Corman may wre-tle at 175
