Valentino Scratched
From Gym Tournament
Bouncing Rudy Valentino, State's Eastern Intercollegiate tumb
ling champion, will not compete in the National Intercollegiate Gym
nastic Tournament at West Point Saturday.
Valentino is still suffering the
effects of a sprained wrist, injured
prior to the Temple-Penn State
duaLmeet more than three weeks
ago. Although he performed well
en nigh to cop the Eastern
title despite the wrist, he will not
risk further injury by competing
in the nationals, his coach Gene
Wettstone said yesterday.
Penn State will send four men
to the competition, howeve r.
Sophomore Dick Spiese, who tied
for third place with Syracuse's
Joel Baba on the parallel bars in
the Easterns; Dave Benner, a
junior constantly improving on
the side-horse, and rope-climbers
Lee Peina and Al Christie will
leave . State College Friday for
West Point. Perna tied for second
place in the Easterns with a climb
in 3.9 seconds.
The quartet has been drilling on
Rec Hall paraphernalia last week
and this in preparation. Wettstone
has hopes that the Lions may be
able to place in the top six in their
events. He listed Perna's chances
in the rope-climb As definitely
promising, and Benner, Christie,
and Spiese as possible placers.
Spiese's task will be the tough
est. Parallel-bar competition is
loaded with talented performers
like Army's Carl Brunson, winner
of the Easterhs in that event.
On the rope-climb, however,
one man, Leo Minotti of Syracuse
who climbed once in 3.5 seconds,
is a definite standout. Only Perna
and Navy's Mary Schenker and
Stan Nall gave him a run in East
, ern competition here.
