Toretti To Join Grid Staff
As Assistant Line Coach
Sever Toretti, football coach and supervisor 'of athletics for the
last year at Williamsport high school, will become assistant line
coach at Penn State September 1.
Announcing Toretti's appointment yesterday, Dr. Carl P. Schott,
dean of the School of Physical Education and Athletics, stated that
Toretti will also become an assistant professor of physical education.
A Nittany alumnus of 1939,
Toretti was one of Head Coach
Joe Bedenk's first choices for one
of two assistantships to be filled
before September.
Speaking of Toretti, Bedenk
said yesterday, "As one of our
boYs, he has done outstanding
work in the field so far. We're
glad to have him here at State."
Toretti moved to Williamsport
last August to take charge of high
school football after two years at
at Steelton high school. At Steel
ton, he produced top-caliber
teams which attracted state-wide
scholastic attention. His Williams_
port team won font, lost six and
tied one.
A graduate of Monongahela
high school, Toretti later played
guard on the '36, '37 and '3B Penn
Skate teams, during the years of
the Lion "revival" in football.
For 40 months during World
War II he was a physical instruc
tor in the air force.
Rodgers Twins Capture Bouts
In IM Wrestling Semi-Finals
Phi Gamma 'Delta's sizzling
twin-brother act, Fred and Char
ley Rodgers, wrestled into the
finals of the intramural mat tour
ney at Rec Hall last night.
• The "brers," looking and fight
ing enough alike that some of
the fans thought the Phi Gams
had thrown in a ringer, bounced
to wins in the 1i gh t-w eight
classes, Fred sticking it out
through six torrid minutes to a
7-4 decision over Russ Wilson of
Delta Theta Sigma, and Charley
"bustin out all over" to pin Bill
Humphries, Sigma Nu, in his
third neriod.
A transitory crowd, largest of
the season, ebbed and flowed
throughout the night as their re
spective me n interlocked for
battle.
The patrons saw five wicked
falls, topped by Tom McDer
mott's two-ply killing of Ted
Pritsker, Pi Lambda Phi, in the
unlimited class. McDermitt's win
kept Phi Delta Theta in the lead
for team honors.
PROBLEMS
The Rodgers brothers, although
they both won, were faced with,
entirely different problems in
their matches. Fred, the big boy
at 135 pounds, racked up an early
advantage then rode Wilson
through the third period to his
7-4 win. Charley, however, was
on the bottom most of his bout,
until, with 30 seconds to go, he
curled his frame to the top posi
tion over Hnmph r i e s, then
slapped the Sigma Nu shoulders
for the count. The Phi Gams
raised havoc.
Bill Eggert kept the Sigma Nu
colors flying with a hard-fought
3-2 decision win over Ron Coder,
Phi Kappa Sigma, but not with
his usual gusto. Eggert, used to
first period pinnings, couldn't
connect with his holds through

the first two minutes last night,
and had to stick it out through
the entire time. He won with
time advantage.
McDermott
Phi Delts' Tom McDermott
dropped Ted Pritsker, Pi Lambda
Phi, in 18 seconds of the second
round, then came trampling back
to down his man again in the
third period. Mike Rubino, Alpha
Phi Delta, finally fired up in the
third period after two slow stan
zas, to pin Ed Van Sickel, Phi
Kappa Psi, in another 475-pound
shindig.
The other pins were racked up
as Sheldon Leisawitz, Phi Epsilon
Pi, uncled Ed Sheriff, Chi Phi in
5:05, and Charley Hazen dropped
Bud Barger, in 3:41 of an inde
pendent squabble.
Two Sigma Alpha Epsilon men,
John Langstaff and Kip Sieber,
pounded the mats for decision
wins in the 128 and 165-pound
divisions. Langstaff hung on to
Paul Hallman, Sigma Pi, and gar
nered a 2-0 edge, while Sieber
pulled through over Bill Rey
nolds, Delta Upsilon, 9-0.
Amusing
Buzzy Riss, 175-pound inde
pendent, formerly state high
school champ, amused the gallery
as he worked over Bob Brady.
Brady, who wouldn't be pinned,
clung to the mat as Riss worked
over him the entire time for a
6-0 decision.
Forfeits were won by Chuck
Beatty, Kappa Sigma, and Bill
Kraybill, independent.
