Virginia, Cornell, Lehigh and Pitt, while losing only to SYracuse.
, Army has also lost its only match to Syidcuse. The Cadets have
.
bounced Cornell, Springfield . and Harvard, and lied Brown
„
Only one change • was planned
by Coach Charlie Speidel from
his lineup that was in action
against Syracuse last week. At 128
pounds, Jack Dreibell:?is, a State
College product, will replace Jack
Waters. Dreibelbis won four dual
meet tilts last season and ad
vanced to the quarter-finals of
the EIWA's
Otherwise, the Nittanies will
field the same team. John Ree.se,
winner of three and loser of two.

Boxers Clash With Army;
Albarano Back in Action
, This afternoon, at West Point, Penn State's boxers will be
opposed inside the ring by Army's slu-tning "Kaydets." •
• The once-beaten Lions will be out seek their second victory
of; thO current campaign while the Black Knights are seeking their
third. win.
But when Army meets Penn State inside the ring, all previous
•
performances can be thrown to
Ithe'—winds. Last year a heavily
favored Cadet unit dropped 'a 5 1 -
'.2 1 7 /2. decision to State. This year
Penn . State is favored.
Army's main strength lies in
the',l 175-pound and heavyweight
classeS. Back at 175 is the defend
ing. Eastern champ, Pete Monfore.
Three times last year Jack Bolger,
Nittany light-heavy, met Monfore
and three' times the Lion mittman
dropped close decisions. The two
will square off this afternoon.
- Lanky Bill Kellum dons- gloves
at heavyweight. Although Charlie
Drazenovich has decisioned the
Army: heavy once and tied with
him once, today's battle should
go"a. long way in deciding this
year's EIBA champion.
Tom Hastings competes at 165-
pounds for Army. Last year P. Q.
Smith pounded out a 30-25 win
over' Hastings. Bob Keller will
reprasent the. Lions in, that weight
:class this year.
''Stan Scott, an Eastern runner
up last season, meets Harry Pap
a.charalambous at 130-potinds,
while Fiank Gross will be opposed
by Larry Lucas at 145.
All-around strength of the State

bolstered when• John Albarano,

Hoopsters Seek I llth Triumph;
Meet Rutgers at Home Tonight
Seeking to capture that which has eluded Penn State basketba ) ll
teams since 1944—the opportunity to cop over ten wins in one sea
son— Coach Elmer Gross" Warri9rg of the wooden way will take on
a dangerously deceptive - Rufgers five in Rec Hall at 8:30 tonight.
The game will mark the resumption of Lion-Rutgers court
relations after a nine-year lapse. In the seven-game series Penn State
holds a 4 to 3 advantage, having
lost only one of these tilts on its
home boards.
Although possessing an unim
posing won and lost record, the
Scarlet boasts a full roster of in
dividual stars topped by the bril
liant Bucky Hatchett.
250 POINTS
Hatchett's point producting•: op
erations this season have already
exceeded' the 250-point mark and
his backboard work has been little,
short of larceny.
"Make no mistake," Gross ,
has warned his "boys" in mid- •
week practice sessions,"ln Hat
chett you're going to see orie of
the best ball players in the
East."
That is taking in a lot of terri
tory; but the fact that in a period
of over four years the. 6 7 f00t. 3-
inch, 220-pound All-Eastern col
legiate football end has persohally
dunked over 1000 points stands
as mute evidence of the player's
capabilities.

Last Minute Instructions

RECEIVING last minute instructions from track Coach Chick
Werner are three of the , nation's top distance runners. They are,
from I. to r., John Twomey,'Werner; Horace Ashenfelter and Curt
Stone. All three work out for the winter track season at ROC Hall.
The trio, plus Nittany track captain Jim Gehrdes, will be leading
contenders at tonight's NAAU Meet in New York.
Three National Track Champs
Make Home of Penn State Oval
••
Three national champions!
That's .what Penn State track fans can see running around the
Rec Hall track anytime during the current indobr season.
The three champions are Horace Ashenfelter, Curt Stone and
John twomey who along with FBI agent Fred Wilt are the top
distance men in the United States. The three have set up their winter
training quarters her,e at the
College.
Ashenfelter. and Stone are .for
mer Nittany track stars, Twomey
is a graduate of the University
of Illinois. All three, topflight
runners in College, have added
to their .laurels since graduation.
As .for their' championships,
Twomey is the national 1500-
meter champ and. Stone is . Na
tional. AAU two-mile champion.
Ashenfelter, as captain of the
Penn.. State team: last year, not
only - won both the indoor
.and
outdoor IC4-A two;mile titles but
also set records in both events.
' Their work this season has' been
something worth writing home
about. Ash captured the- two-mile
run 'at the Philadelphia Inquirer
meet. Stone upset the great Fred
Wilt a week and a half ago in
Boston, and in so doing turned in
the fastest two miles of the pre
sent campaign. •
Twomey has been one of the
leading contenders in the mile
division all season. On several oc
' casions the was leading at a late
stage in the race only to fall vic
tim to accidents. He has been
among the .top finishers in all
his starts.
Both the former Penn State
stars are doing graduate work
at the, College and while .Ash is
running'• for the Penn A.C., Stoney
is hotfooting it for the Shanahan
Catholic Club. Twomey has re
mained true to his native state
and is running under the aus
pices of the Illinois A.C.
This is the second year that
Twomey has worked out during
the winter at Penn State and the
coaches and .the track team have
sort of adopted Johnny as one of
their own. Both the team and the
coaches are glad to have him and
his fellow charhps around to rub
elbows with. Coach Werner be
lieves that they may play a part
in the development of , his own
distance runners.
Coach Chick Werner believes
that since State has had a num
ber of outstanding distance men
this is ao good place to train. He
attributes the closeness of the
golf course to Rec Hall as . a
large factor in their development.

It gives them a chance to train
properly.
As leaders in this country the
three naturally fall among the
best distance runners in the
world, And so, although the lack
of a fieldhouse will keep local fans
from seeing any indoor competi
tion this year, anyone who' makes
the trip to Rec Hall, any weekday
late in the afternoon, will be re
warded by seeing three national
champions annd three of the
world's best distance runners in
action.
