risk losing their competitive'edge
with the finals less than two

Balanced for 7952
The 1952 edition of the Penn State gymnastics team, despite the
loss of its former Eastern intercollegiate tumbling champion, Rudy
Valentino, is expected to be greatly improved by returning veterans
and excellent depth.
Coach Gene -Wettstone is optimistic about his
for the coining campaign, which opens in Rec Hall

"Because of the depth created
by a large crop of sophomores up
from last year's freshman team,
the outlook for the coming season
is very bright,", Wettstone said.
The first team is expected to
be composed of three seniors, eight
juniors. eight sophomores, and
three freshmen. Coach Wettstone
reports that, competition for start
ing positions is keen in the events,
and that team places won't be
deter in ined until early next
month.
The Lion's will compete in the
Eastern intercollegiates and na
tional collegiates next Ma r
and, hope to send some represen
tatives to the final Olympic try
outs and, National A.A.U. gym
nastic championships, which will
be held in Rec Hall April 25-26.
Wettstone reports that some of
the stiffest competition is in the
