The Lion's Lair
Charlie Speidel’s wrestling men should get one of their stiffer
tests of the season Saturday when they take on the Cadets'of Army
at West Point. It’s too bad that the match isn’t scheduled for Rec Hall
for a couple of the individual bouts should be thrillers.
The number one attraction is the match between State’s 177
pounder Hud Samson and the Cadets’ A 1 Paulekas. Both men wil?
go into the match with undefeated I
records on the line.
Nittany Lion fans will remem
ber Paulekas as the wrestler who
defeated East* ' Chf -o Mike Rr
bino in ' a di
meet here 1;
year. Pauleki
a former Farr
High School mi
man, lost his
ly match of
season last yt
in‘the semi-fim
of .t h e Eastf
tournament.
Bob Homai
S 1 a 1 e's undi
fealed 123 pounder will go up
against a lough foe in Bob
Karns, runner-up lo Lehigh's
Mike Filipos in the EIWA tour
ney last season. The two wrest
lers have one common foe in
Pitt's,Hugh Peery. Homan de
feated Peery, 4-2, while* Peery
turned the tables on Karns, 9-3.
Another good match should be
the Doug Frey-Don Swygert bat
tle at 157 pounds. The Army cap
tain took, third place in the East
ern tournament last year, being
eliminated by 157 pound champ
Emil Perona of Rutgers.

Tuesday night by tripping the previously unbeaten Dukes, 33-21, to
move into first place in League D.
Each team had entered the game with indentical 5-0 records
and the win for Dorm 4 enabled the league leaders to become the
first intramural team to notch six wins this season. Charles Stroup
played an important role in the
success of Dorm 4 by pouring 20
points through the hoops.
Dorm 4' needs only to beat the
Fords, possessors of a 1-6 slate,
in its next game to sew up the
League D championship. The
Fords lost to Edgewood, 31-25, in
League D’s only other battle.
Jesse Darlington led Edgewood

over the Pythons to' make its
record even at 3-3.'

to talk to Harold Miller, the Pan
thers’ 130-pound grappler who
had the misfortune Of tangling
with the Lions’ Dandy Dick Lem
yre. Prior to the match Miller
had an undefeated string intact
as did a couple of other Pitt
matmen. After the match, the
only men who had unbeaten
streaks going were Penn State
wrestlers.
Miller was amazed at the
quickness of Stale's Pan-Ameri
can champ. v
"Fast? Why he had a counter
'll old ready before I even
thought of the hold/' he ex
claimed.
After watching Lemyre wrestle
a few times we began to antici
pate his meeting Tony Gizoni,
Waynesburg’s two-time national
123-pound champion, in the na
tionals.
We graduated from high school
with Gizoni and if the memory is
correct the last time he was beaten
was in ninth grade. This year the
Waynesburg College wrestler is
competing in the 130 pound class
and a match between he and
Lemyre seemed a natural.
But as we understand it now,
Gizoni will be ineligible for the
' national tournament this year
because he wrestled in his fresh
man year.

Lincoln Junior High School is

Relay Squad
n N.Y. Meet
Track Coach Chick Werner en
tered a two-mile squad and may
enter the one-mile relay quartet
in the New York Athletic Club’s
invitational meet Saturday night
in Madison Square Garden.
Bob Roessler, who broke the
1000-yard record at West Point
last Saturday, will lead the two
mile squad and will team up
with . Jack Horner, Dave Pierson,
and Don Austin. If Roessler can
maintain the form he showed last
Saturday and the other three men
continue to improve, the team
might score an upset.
Heat parings for both the mile
and two-mile relays have not
been announced as yet, but there
is a strong possibility thaf_ Man
hattan, victors over Army and
Georgetown, will be among the
opposition in the two-mile race.
Three probable starters have
been named for the mile relay,
but Coach Werner is undecided
as to the fourth man. Since his
return, veteran three-year cam
paigner John McCall may be the
choice for the fourth spot. Bill
Kilmer and John Lauer, who have
run in every relay this year, and
Dave Thomas will compose the
rest of the team.

Army Gym Team
Has Top-Notch. Coach
Penn State’s gymnastic team, in addition to facing its toughest
opponent of the current season at Army Saturday at 2 p.m., will
also face a group coached by one of the outstanding gym mentors
in the country, Tom Maloney.
Because of the fine gymnastic material usually found among the
well-disciplined cadets enrolled at the Point, Maloney has had a
splendid opportunity to put his
vast knowledge of the- sport to
good use.
As a result, he has compiled
an enviable record during his
tenure at West Point. Over his
22 years there, it is believed
that he has established by far the
best dual meet record of any gym
coach in the country.
Defending Eastern Champs
Maloney will lead his star
studded squad against Gene
Wettstone’s Lions, with a fabu
lous 19-meet winning streak,
which has extended over the past
three years. The Cadets have won
three consecutive meets so far
this season,
The Cadets are the defending
Eastern champions in gymnastics
and enter the meet with a team
averaging the standing of a
senior. They are extremely well
balanced and have depth to
spare.
Since the latter two qualities
are the essence of a gymnastics
winner, the Cadets will again be
a tough nut to crack for the
Eastern title this year.
Strong in Climb
Army presents its strongest
threats in the rope climb and
tumbling events. In the latter, the
Cadets have two veteran per
formers, Pat Webster and George
Haas, who are certain to cause
trouble for the Lions.
In the rope climb, Army has
one of the best performers in
the East in * Johnny Ballantyne.
John Claybrook is ranked behind
Ballatyne in this event. These
performers have finished one
two in their speciality in every
meet this year.
Top Student-Gridder
Stewart Scheetz, of Lansdale,
co-captain-elect of the 1952 foot
ball team, is Penn State’s top stu
dent-gridder. His All-College av
erage is a robust 2.3.
individual entrants from Penn
State, two former Staters will be

two-mile race and the Burmeyer

Bobby Feller
Hopes to Set
More Records
MIAMI BEACH, Fla., Feb. 6
(IP) —Back in the 20-win club
where he belongs, 33-year-old
Bobby Feller still hopes to write
three more records in the book.
Most of all, he wants to help
pitch the Cleveland Indians to
the pennant they just missed last
fall. But he has three personal
goals:
1. A fourth no-hitter
2. 300 major league wins
3. A World Series win.
“I hope I have four or five more
years,” said Feller today, relaxing
in his beach hotel room before his
appearance at a sports show. “It
all depends on the old flipper and
the competition.
“If there’s no war, and my arm
holds up, I might have a chance.
The four years I lost in ■ World
War II cost me whatever chance
I had for most of the records.”
“When Joe DiMaggio hung up
and Wally Moses, decided to
coach,” said Feller, “that left me
about the first settler. I came up
in ’36 and so did Birdie Tebbetts
later the same year. Johnny Mize
also came up that year but he
didn’t get into our league until a
few years ago.
“DiMaggio’s retirement won’t
make me sorry. He always hit me
pretty good.”
