THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1951 Donald (Ducky) Welsh, Lancaster Catholic High school's burly fullback and one of the most -sought-after scholastic gridders in Eastern Pennsylvania, has signed a contract to enroll at the Univer sity of Georgia according to a recent statement by his parents. How. is it that Pennsylvania colleges—and particularly Penn State—are allowing an athlete of so great promise to slip through their fingers inquires an anonymous alumnus wh o mailed us the item (which orig inally appeared in the Lancas ter Intelligencer , Journal) along with several pertinent ques tions? "Yea—how come?" we won dered and forthwith marched, to Rec hall where we pointedly queried Rip Engle, Nittany foot ball chief, for an explanation to the question. "You bet we'd like to have the kid enrolled at Penn State," Rip led off, "and don't think we haven't been trying to get him. Welsh has been highly recom mended to us. Penn State and Georgia are not the only two schools after him," he contin u vd. "1 recently spoke at' a foot ball banquet in Lancaster after which I talked to school offi cials about the boy. Also, at dif ferent times, both Ridge Riley (alumni secretary) and Sever Toretti (assistant grid instruc tor under Engle) have spoken to him. Just because he's signed a contract doesn't mean that we've given up on obtaining him!' Under the agreement, which is a form pact used by all teams in the Southeastern Conference, Welsh, should he decide to play sports in that Conference, must do so for Georgia. No other team in the Conference is ble to tamper with him or sign him. However, the pact does not hold good except among Conference teams, and he could still change his mind and en roll and play at some other col lege outside of the conference. The newspaper item followed: "The Purple and Gold Ftridder,l who was chosen as the outstand ing football player of Lancaster county by the All-Lancaster Football association, agreed to enter Georgia after a conference with Forrest G. (Spec) Towns, now an assistant coach at Geor gia. Currently playing with Catholic High's basketball team, Welsh will graduate this June. He plans to enter Georgia next September and report when the Freshman gridders are called in on Sept. 1." "I gave this a lot of thought," Welsh said after signing the contract, "and decided that Georgia has just what I need to further my education. (Ed. note —Hey! Ripley, can't you just envision the near future when Georgia's academic standing will be the bait used to lure Dulles Mission— (Continued from page one) and political leaders from public office. • Powerful individuals have been working hard to get the purge junked. Sources close to th e mission said that under the U.S. plan, if Japan wiped out all the reforms none of the 45 countries expected to sign the treaty would be able to do anything except to lodge formal protests. Objections Expected Such considerations are ex pected to bring objections from Britain and some of Japan's neighbors, some observers be lieve. The informants said, however, that the opinion of most inter ested powers generally wa s in agreement. The most dissent, they added, came on the subjects of reparations and future economic terms. The informants said the United States believe the Japanese should 'not berequired to pay fur ther reparations, 'On The Ball' By RAY KOEHLER Sports Editor Will Welsh Welsh On Ga. Grid Deal? teen-age talent to the tough Southeastern football confer ence?) Ay, and here's the rub our in sistant alumnus friend points out. What is the matter with his studying Animal Husbandry at Penn State, a school whose ag course is regarded as one of the nation's best? Earl Bruce, freshman football.. coach, had the answer. "That's a joke,"," he smiled. If Georgia wants him so badly, without ev er having seen him in action, you can be sure that they made him a pretty good offer to go along with the higher education. You don't go to Georgia to study Agriculture (Welsh wants to to work with beef cattle) when you have a fine Ag school like Penn State close by." Like all 18-year-olds, Welsh faces a call from Uncle Ram. However. until that come s, Ducky said he is going ahead with his plans. He'll be enrolled, he said, in the university's mili tary course as soon as he enters school and plans to take four years of the ROTC training there. TKE, Beaver Cagers Cop 4th Eighteen intramural basketball games were played Tuesday night as both independent and frater nity teams competed in their quests for league titles. In independent contests, the Beavers of league G won their fourth victory of the year by a narrow margin over the Oilers. Another contest in league G saw the Penn State Club win by for feit over the Erasers. In league F, the Phils continued their win ning ways by topping Nittany Co-op, 22-12 an d Schwalm's 8 markers led the Hamilton B's to a 12-3 victory over the Crusaders. The Happy Losers of league H defeated th e Deadwoods, 22-15 and also in the same loop, Penn Haven forfeited to the Newman ites. In league . I, the Coal Crackers got into the win column as Parks' 10 points paced them to a 31-6 triumph over the Knights. Waug aman's 12 points led the Pre-Vets to a 24-3 win over the Barons. The only battle in league J was the Ramblers 20-15 downing of the Olympians. The Big Five dropped a 24-17 decision to the Schmoos and the Abees trounced the Mice, 20-12 in league K. League L games saw Sherry bucket 22 points to lead the Wildcats to a Room Changed Room 10 Sparks Bob Smoot's Topic Tonight: "What is Eternal Lifer' Penn State Bible Fellowship THE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA Coal Crackers CAMPUS BIBLE CONFERENCE 7:30 p.m. Gymnasts Risk Clean Slate AgainstEasternOpponents Recently returned from an all-victorious trip in the South, Penn State's 1951 gymnastic team is now readying itself for the Eastern competition that must be met in the next four weeks. Although overwhelming winners over North Carolina and Mary land, the real test will be in Sat hall. The weekend clash with tl measure of the Nittany potential than the two previous intersec tional meetings. Inexperience This year's squad, termed "weak" by Coach Gene Wett stone because of inexperience, has a quality if not quantity basis to build on. In Captain Rudy Val entino, the Lion team has the Eastern collegiate turn bling champion and one of the top men in the nation. Because of an in jury, Valentino was unable to compete in the National champ ionships last spring, but with work this season, will be able to make his presence felt when State goes to the National colle„ate and A.A.U. meets at the end of the dual season. Dave Benner, veteran sidehorse specialist, has earned two sets of first place points this year and gen 12. e expected to improve on last'R'ear's record when he fin isked fourth in the National col- It."?.,!ke tourney. Campbell Helps The major burden for the cur rent schedule will fall on less experienced but not less capable shoulders as evidenced by the re sults of the first two meets. Tom Campbell, a PIAA titleholder in 1949, has continued his proficient work by winning twice on the horizontal bar. The rope climbing is being handled by Dave Schultz who did not lose on the Southern trip. Jim Hazen, undefeated on the flying rings so far, will get enough help from Fred Fritsche to pick up points for the Lions all season long. ' Dave Douglass and Bill Hum phries are the Nittany point-get ters 'on the parallel bars. Doug lass gained first place honors in the North Carolina setto. Tumbling was the strongest part of Wettstone's team over the weekend, with Valentino, Owen Wilkinson,, and Al Grazier earn ing the top three spots in both meets. 26-23 triumph over the Capitols and the Tigers forfeit to the Arch itects. Fraternity play saw a flurry of hot court action as the big game turned out to be Tau Kappa Ep silon's 29-21 decision over Sigma Nu as Art Trautmann led with 7 markers. The Teke's are now in sole possession of first place in league C. Another league C game saw Delta Chi roll over Acacia, 31-9. In league B, Tau Phi Delta edged Alpha Chi Rho, 10-9, in the first of three overtime battles. Phi Kappa edged Lambda Chi Alpha, 25-23 with Vic Straub net ting 13 markers, and in two extra periods, Phi Kappa Tau squeezed out a 17-15 win over Alpha Zeta. ~ U ~. ~: 1 THAT SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES * *Corduroy Sport Coats .... $lO.BB i *Gabardine Top Coats 14.88 s ; *Plastic Raincoats 1.95 • 4 , 4' Specials you can't afford to miss!
