At Cor nell, Frey seemed able to grab a leg from Bettucci at any given moment. In Rec hall, Bettucci scored the first takedown, and kept the lead. Frey scored an escape but Bettucci waS not to be headed, and piled up a 5-1 lead in the second period and went on to win easily. Rubino Wins Rubino, seeded second to Army's Al Paulekas, decisioned Cornell's Don Dickason, 6-3, for his title. Dickason had dumped Paulekas in the quarter-finals, 4-3. übino set the tempo of the match with the first takedown, one of his well-known body slams and had things pretty much his own way after that. Barr came within ten seconds of forcing referee John Engle to make a decision. Barr, ranked first in the heavyweight division, scored the first point in the sec ond period. when he pulled an escape on Princeton's undefeated Brad Glass. In the third period, with Barr in control, Glass, reversed and as the crowd of 5000 went wild, held onto Barr's leg for time. Barr just didn't have enough to break loose, and Glass took the verdict, 2-1. Crowd Pleaser Joe Lmyre's match with Navy's Don Thomas, a 17-10 affair, was probably the most rip-roaring ever seen in an EIWA tourna ment, and certainly was his best effort of the season. Thomas, seeded first, took Lem yre down without too much trouble, but Lemyre brought the crowd to its feet by reversing from what seemed like an im possible position. The Midship man came out on top of Lemyre with a reverse, and then caught him in a near-fall position. Lem yre held out, and finally managed another reverse as the first period ended.

By EWE MOORE They can say all they want about those storybook endings, but the crowd that stood in Rec hall Saturday night after the heavyweight wrestling bout knows at least some of them can happen—even if they are not all happy endings. The crowd, dominated with partisan Penn State fans, waited breathlessly, while referee John Engle walked to the scoring table as Homer Barr and Princeton's Brad Glass waited on the edge of the mat. The score at the end of the match was 2-1 in favor of Glass. but Penn State fans were confident Homer had time adVan tage and would win the heavy weight title for the third straight time. Engle turned from' the table and started toward the wrest lers. The crowd edged forward. Engle reached, for the wrestlers hands—and pushed Glass' into the air—a new champion was drowned.' At first the crowd was shocked and r very disappointed, booing Glass. and cheering Barr as he left the floor. The fans thought Homer had won and told the'ref eree so with loud taunts. Actually, the "People's Choice" needed 10 seconds to gain time advantage. Glass had won, fair and square. When the medals l were pre sented the crowd continued to boo Glass and cheer Barr. A few came to their senses and gave the Princeton wrestler a round of applause. Later we talked with Glass. To look at him you would have never known he had just beaten a two time champion and was the new Eastern heavyweight cham pion. He looked as if he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Guess he wondered *hat he had to do to get a cheer from a crowd. "I'm glad I beat him. But I hated to win that way," be said. And he added, "Homer Barr is a great competitor." The happiest fellow in Rec hall after the tournament was George Graveson, Yale's 167 - pounder who won the outstanding wrestler trophy. Asked how he felt after being selected, Graveson said with a smile from ear to ear: "I'm the happiest guy in the world." Relay Team Places 2nd In K Of C Race After two straight unsuccessful attempts because of mishaps, the Penn State mile-relay quartet not only finished, but wound up in a virtual triple dead heat for first at the Cleveland Knights of Col umbus indoor meet Friday. Having had the good fortune to finish, the Lions *ere not fa vored by the photo which showed Ohio State/ the winner with the Nittanies anchor man Guy Kay a half inch behind the Buckeyes and an equal margin ahead of Illinois. John Lauer, Bill Lockhart,-J - ohn McCall, and Kay are the sprinters who turned in the fast board time of 3:24.4 in the Penn State indoor season wind-up.- Other Lion individual perform ers could do rio better than fourth. Jim Herb jumped inches lower than his IC-4A winning leap; Bob Freebairn raced a 4:16 mile but could not beat OS's Len Truex, Don Gehrman and Horace Ashen f,elter; and Bill Ash came ,horne ourth in the two mile. TUESDAY, *ARCH . 13, 1951 Men Win Positions (Continued. from page one) rocked each other with solid hits to the head and body. At the end, Gross Might have had a slight ad vantage. He was landing blows more frequently than in the early rounds, and was having little trouble getting his right cross through Masterson's usually good defense. Gross came closer to vic tory than the pro-Virginia crowd cares to think about. Santangelo almost pulled the upset of the year when he had Syracuse's Marty Crandell i n trouble throughout the first two .rounds with a barrage of left jabs and good rights to the head. But conditioning saved the former national heavyweight champ from further humiliation, as the Lion heavy tired very fast in the third round. Crandell finally succeeded in downing Santangelo and won a TKO victory at 1:15 of the third. The action had been so furious during the first two rounds that sheer exhaustion kept Santangelo from finishing out the• round for an upset victory. The - Lion heavy later received a thunderous ova tion from the crowd when he 'was ,awarded the runnerup medal. Masterson, who also fought three bouts during the tourney, won the outstanding boxer award. Although scoring only 15 team points, Virginia figured promi nently in the tournament. The CaValiers had the most individual champs, with three winners in the ' first three 'weights. Also, Allen Hollingsworth punched out a neat chunk of ring history when he became the only man to ever win four Eastern titles.' From the first, the battle for team honors was between• the Lions and the Orange. The margin of victory hung on several thin threads, several of which were bouts between the two top teams. Besides the Santangelo-Cran dell bout, the Lions could have upset the Orange cart in two other bouts. Jim Barr's 130-lb.
