To NCAA Meet
Penn State's quartet of gym

clay.
Performers will come all the
way from the west coast—Cali
fornia, UCLA, and Southern Cal
ifornia; from the south—Georgia
Tech and Florida State; from the
East, and from the mid-west to
attempt to wrest the team cham
pionship from the defending
title-holder, Temple. •
A darkhorse to repeat, Temple
will run up against its biggest
trouble from the last two areas.
Illinois, ,Michigan State, on the
strength of its all.roimd star Mel
Stout, and Kent State, : led by
Olympian Joe Kotys, will be
the team favorites.
EASTERN TEAMS
Of the eastern schools, those
seeded highest are Army and
Syracuse, the two teams that tied
for Eastern Intercollegiate team
hot ors this year.
Penn State, which won its last
title in 1948 with a total of 58
mints i,s not rated as .a strong
contender. Competition is so close
this season that the eventual
winner is not expected to pile up
more than 20 points.
Also represented in 'the tourna
ment are Colorado, Montana,
Colorado State, Nebraska, lowa,
Minnesota, Wisconsin, University
of Chicago, Michigan, Indiana and
Navy.
Representatives of the NCAA
and NAAU will gather for meet
ings during the weekend to at-'
tempt to bring collegiate gymnas
tic rules closer in conformance
to Olympic rules. The meetings
might have strong results.
TRAMPOLINE
For one thing, the trampoline
event, which recently reSulted in
deaths at Akron YMCA'and Notre
Dame, might be doomed. Tramp
oline is not a part of Olympic
competition, and since gymnas
tics is on the upgrade in colleges
and future Olympic gymnasts
might. be college-trained, 'many
representatives feel collegiate
rules should eliminate the event:
The midwest• will come out
strongest against the change. In
that area the trampoline is one
of the favorite events. The East
ern Intercollegiate Association
has been proceeding without the
event for several years. ,
29 remained unbeaten on the
strength of a forfeit from Dorm
27. .
In other contests, Dorm 39 out
fought Penn Haven—B, 15-11;
15-9; Dorm 24 rapped the Killers;
15-12, 8-15, ' 15-9; Dorm 28 came
beck to scuttle Dorm 5, 16-18,

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA
Albarano 'One of John L's Boys,
Seeks National Boxing Honors
When the gong rings for the 135-pound semi-finals of the 13th
annual NCAA boxing tournament at Ree Hall tomorrow night, the
Penn Stater who will step into the squared circle will be Johnny
Albarano.
Only a sophomore now, Albarano has looked very impressive in
his first year in the ring. The clever little puncher has recorded a
5-2-1 record this season.
He has boxed 17 rounds in dual meet competition, won eight,
lost five and drew four.
"John is always willing to learn," says his tutor, Eddie Sul
kowski. "The cooperation he has •given me is amazing. I tell him
to do Something and, he'll go right ahead and do it."
One of the gamest scrappers in his weight class, he'll be opposed
by the nation's best 135 pounders.
There'll be Joe Mackey, of Min
nesota..ln his first varsity bout
this year, Albarano copped a 29-
28 decision from the Gopher bat
tler but he says, "He's very good,
I think he is the best boxer I
have come up against all year. I'm
going to have to watch him."
Then there's the Eastern
champ, Syracuse's Tim Curley.
After Albarano had knocked out
Catholic U's Joe Incarnato after
30 seconds of the first round
had elapsed, he met Curley in
the EISA finals.
Curley's ring experience paid
off as he was awarded the • nod
over Albarano in a very hotly
contested duel.
Another strong contender for
the 135-pound crown will be
Idaho's Norm Walker, last year's
NCAA runnerup, and Jim Reilly,
a heady performer from Gonzaga
University.
proclaims that John has "the po-
But his coach, Ed Sulkowski,
tentialities of a champ."
Albarano is one of "John L.'s" boys, so he claims. He lives in
Lilly, Pa. (near Johnstown). His father is a coal miner. "I've worked
in the mines for a couple of years myself," states the timid Albarano.
"I'm ,studying to be a mining engineer no*."
John spent his first year of schooling at Maryland U. where his
uncle was an All-American football' guard. He switched to Penn
State this year so that he could be closer to his home. •
On weekends, when he isn't taking part in fisticuffing duels,
he goes home to play in the family orchestra, led by his father.
Right now, with his trumpet resting in its case, Albarano has his
mitts focused on a national boxing title.
-In the twelve ,previous NCAA tourneys, Penn State claims a
total of five national champs. In 1942 David ,Stoop won 118-pound
honors and Al Lewis copped a title at 148 pounds.
In 1936 Frank Goodman annexed the 135-pound crown, followed
by Paul Scally at 175 pounds in 1941. The last Nittany titlist was
130-pounder Glenn Hawthorne. He garnered in his laurels in 1947.
