Modern Target System
Aids Varsity Rifle Tearn
A new target carrier system, installed by the athletic associa
tion in the Armory building, is aiding a winning Penn State varsity
team. With this new system the men just have to crank a rod on the
target which increases the safety
of firing, and also decreases the
time of firing.
In nine telegraphic meets this
season, Major Felipe Vias’ varsity
riflemen have won six matches
and lost three. In the first com
petitive firing of the season the
five man team recorded 1387
points to defeat Louisville, Miami,
and Colorado State. Rod Ingle
right score I 281 points to lead the
victors in scoring,
In their second meet the sharp
shooters scored 1382 points and
defeated Brooklyn Polytechnical,
John Hopkins, and Illinois, but
lost to Merchant Marine, Oregon
State, and the Coast Guard. Fred
Wessman’s 282 points led the
Penn State scoring.
In a telegraphic meet the en
tire squad can; fire, but only the
five highest scores are tabulated
by Coach Felipe to compete with
other schools. These certified
scores are then sent to the other
schools competing in the meet ac
cording to National Rifle associa
tion rules. The team fires from
three positions:, prone, kneeling,
and standing, at a target 50 feet
distant. Each man fires 10 rounds
from each position and the high
est possible individual score is
300 points.--
The next varsity telegraphic
meet will be this Saturday.
Shoulder - shoulder competition
will start in February, and the
team will compete in the Inter-

Jim Maurey Keeps
Eye On Brothers

Penn State wrestling while a
third keeps a watchful eye on
his brothers in his new role as
spectator.^

have the 136-pound berth clinch
ed, is beginning his second year

he finished third in the Eastern
championships.
His younger brother, Jerry, is
the stand-out member of a crack
freshman team which next sea
son will furnish the nucleus for
Charge Speidel’s varsity outfit.
As a schoolboy at Clearfield,
Jerry was unbeaten in four years
of championship competition.

Lion varsity last year and ' an
Eastern title-holc}er in the 145-
pound class, is Navy veteran Jim
Maurey, who is filling a teaching
coaching role at the local high
school while keeping a weather
eye on his mat-conscious brothers.

Panoplos Recalls
35-Point Barrage
By JOE BREU
Thirty-five points in one game
—that’s the high spot in the
basketball career of Penn State
eager, Ted Panoplos.
Ted, a 5-foot, ll J /2-inch senior,
scored the 35 points as a member
of the Altoona Center team two
years ago. It was one of those
games all players dream of but
few experience as he tossed in
90 per cent of his shots to lead
his team to victory over Johns
town Jr. college.
Born in Wilkes-Barre, Ted
moved to Altoona while in grade
school and is still living there.
He was a member of the Altoona
high school team. Following
graduation, he entered Penn
State, majoring in hotel admin
istration, and spent his first two
years at the Altoona center.
Leads Altoona To Championship
It was during his second year
there that Ted came up with his
35 point game. But that wasn’t
all he came up with. Altoona that
season won the Pennsylvania Jr.
College championship in a tour
ney at Dußois. Ted was named
the outstanding player of tb»
tournament ,a fitting climax to
a great year.
As a matter of record, Ted and
his mates went into the Eastern
finals for the National Jr. college
title and were defeated by the
eventual champions in a close
contest. Ted gained some conso
lation, however, being named to
the all-tournament team.
Last year, Panoplos earned' a
berth on Elmer Gross’ Nittany
cage team and this year has led
the scorer’s on several occasions.
Like most athletes, Ted would
like to coach if the opportunity
presents itself. But should the
chance fail to arrive, he will
either join his father in managing
a small hotel in his home town
or go into YMCA work.

Mold Ken Bunn Day
A Ken Bunn Day banquet,
honoring the first State College
boy to become a regular on Penn
State’s football team since the
late 1920’5, will take place in the
banquet room of the State Col
lege hotel at 6 p.m. today.
Bunn, who played center on the
great State high teams of 1944
and 1945, was one of the greatest
all-round players in the school’s
gridiron history. He played var
sity ball for three seasons for
Penn State, and earned his letter
the past two seasons. He held
down the offensive center post
and started every game for the
Bions this past fall.
