Gymnastics Team Set
For Syracuse Tomorrow
By 808 SCHOELLKOPF
Gymnastics Coach Gene Wettstone will probably-stick with most of his regular lineup
•
and is contemplating making only one minor change for the all-important meet with Syra
cuse at- 2 p.m. tomorrow afternoon in Rec Hall.
The only alteration .in the lineup may occur in the horizontal bar event where
Wettstone might insert a senior, Earle Kerber, in the third position in place of Karl
Schwenzsfeier: The Nittany gym
mentor plans to keep Jean Cron
stedt, undefeated in three dual
meets, in the top position and
Mario Todaro in, his usual second
spot.
The meet is expected to be
the closest, event for event, of
any the Nittany gymnasts have
engaged in this year.
State rates the edge in the side
horse event with unbeaten Bobby
Lawrence and Frank Wick carry
ing the brunt of the attack. Dick
Shaffer, who has registered two
fotirths and a third for the Nit
tanies, will perform in the third
slot,
Same Men on P-Bars
Both the high bar and parallel
bars events will be close with the
battle between the Lions' Cron
stedt and Syracuse's Johnny Bar
kal.
In the p-bars Wettstone plans
to keep Bill Sabo and Dave Doug
lass in the second and third posi
tions, respectively. The latter fin
ished fourth against Navy last
Saturday in his first start of the
season.
There is a good possibility that
the Lions can take a first and
- second place in the flying rings.
In Syracuse's last meet with Ar
my, which the Cadets won hand
ily, 60-37. the Orange's top ring
man, Ferdie Fournies, scored only
a total of 233 points for a third
place.
Shultz Rates Edge
Both of State's top men on the
flying rings, Jim Haen and Tony
Procopio, have registered higher
point totals in Penn State's last
two meets.
Schwenzsfeier, recent addition
to the Lion gym team, will con
tinue to perform behind Hazen
and Procopio.
Another close battle will prob
ably develop in the rope climbing
event, where the Lions' Dave
Shultz rates a nar r o w edg e.
Shultz, at his bes t, can climb
the distance in 3'.9 or 4.0 seconds,
while Syracuse's ace ropeman,
Fournies, is close behind with a
4.1 'clocking. John Baffa and Nor
man Yu will round out the Lions'
rope climb entry.
Syracuse rates a decided edge
in the tumbling event, with its
sensational freshman Jimmy Seb
bo, one of the few collegiate gym
nasts to do a triple full twist,
spearheading the attack.
The Lions will counter with
Bob Kenyon, Bob Kriedler, and
Owen Wilkinson on the mats.

Wins Second
Skating Title
OSLO, Feb. 21—(AP)—Daz
zling Dick Button, king of the fig
ure skaters, won his second
Olympic championship with a
masterful ice show today and hp
came the first repeating titlist of
the 1952 winter games.
The • handsome, 22-year-old
Harvard University senior from
Englewood, N. J., completed his
skating conquest with a spectacu
lar series of improvised whirls
and jumps that brought repeated
rounds of applause from the
small crowd of 5,000 at Bislett
Stadium.
The triumph, giving the United
States her fourth gold medal and
strengthening her hold on second
place in the unofficial team stand
ings, brought a bright glow to a
day otherwise marred by defeat
and near tragedy for American
forces.
