'Hall For'
Mat Bouts
By ERNIE MOORE '
Win, lose or draw, Homer Barr
is'-still the "People's Choice" as
far as Penn State wrestling fans
are concerned. When the Lions'
big heavyweight came on the
floor yesterday afternoon for his
prelim match, he was greeted
with a roar of applause from the
State rooters.
'The fact — that Homer's match
was on the mat at the far end
of Rec hall didn't phase the
fans. They moved en masse to
see one of the greatest- wrest-
Jers ever to don Penn Stale
togs
Homer didn't let them down.
Although lie couldn't pin Pete
Bender, of Rutgers, the 'defend
ing Eastern champ gave him a
sodnd 8-1 licking.
"Murderers Row"
From the looks of first-round
results, Penn State has developed
a "murderers' row.". Don Frey,
147-pounder, Rusty Santel, 157,
Joe Lemyre, 167, and Mike Ru
bino, 177, scored successive .pins
in yesterday's preliminaries. '
President Milton S. Eisen
hower, Wilmer E. Kenworthy,
director of student affairs, Carl
P. Schott, dean of the School
of Physical Education and Ath
• letics, and William Hoff

istrar, took in the matches from

until both recovered.

tournament. There were 492 tick
ets reportedly sold in Bethlehem.
From the sound of things in Rec
hall, all 492 ticket holders are
here to watch the Engineers per
form. Before each Lehigh wrest
ler goes on" the mat, the entire
team gathers around to wish him
luck. Yes, sir, they want this
championship! '
Mike Dißatista, who is doing
some of the refereeing at the
tourney", is a three-time East
ern champion in the 175-pound
class. Mike did his wrestling for
Penn in 1941, '42, and '43.
Gene M anf rin i, Columbia's
blind 157-pound grappler, is proof
enough that you don't need to see

• Marino's bout was stormed
,at

fered a cut over the right eye.

himself into trouble in the first

staged a brilliant comeback, but
two left hooks finished him. It
was a severe jolt to the. Lions.

Heims, on the - other hand,.used
