PAGE STA 4 Full Teams Enter: - ElßA's Catholic U., Georgetown Enter Partial Squads for Tourney Full teams from four schools, including the host Penn State, have been entered in the Intercollegiate Boxing Association tourna ment which opens in Rec Hall Friday night, while Catholic U. has entered seven men and Georgetown one. The single Georgetown entry was admitted Tuesday by a major ity vote of the association membership. He is at Palumbo, who fought in last year's champion ships at 130 pounds, and will com pete this year at 132, Palumbo's entry brought the total of competitors tq 40, after Catholic U. failed to place a man in the 178-pound class. ' 4 Complete Teams The 40 entries insure a card of eight bouts on Friday night, 16 in the semi-final round Saturday afternoon, and the eight final bouts Saturday night. Schools entering full teams be sides the Lions were Army, Syra cuse, and Virginia. Syracuse has been established as favorite, with any of the other teams capable of an upset. Penn State leads the field in defending individual champions with two, while Syracuse and Army have one. Neither Virginia nor Catholic U. boast a champion. The competition is sure. to be tough in all weights, and at 125, 156, and 178-pounds in particu lar. Miller Defends Title The 125-pound class is' loaded with top-notch performers, and with no defending champ back, the field is wide open. - The main contenders are the Lions' eunbeat en but thrice tied Sammy Marino, Catholic U.'s 3 o e Walsh,. Syra cuse's speedy Tommy Coulter, and Virginia's Bill Banerdt. Syracuse's Eastern champ Bill "Hooksie" Miller is back to de fend his 150-pound title, 1;lut is sure to have a rough time against Army's Carl Crews and Virginia's Captain Pete Potter, who beat him in a dual meet. In the light heavy class, an other champ, Army's Jim Mcln erney, is back, but he's going to have to throw plenty of solid leather to retain his crown. Flore Contender Besides the Lions' sophomore slugger Adam Kois there are Vir ginia's Bill Roberts, and Whitey Mahar of Syracuse, to haunt him. The 139-pound class will prob ably wind up as a three-way scrap between Lion Tony Flore, Syra cuse's Johnny Granger, and cath olic U.'s Joe Incarriato. Lion coach Eddie Sullowski is counting heavtly'on his two fast improving sophomores . Kois and Flore to show well in the tourna.., ment. If Mall? and Tony continue as they have been lately, Sul kowski believes the Lions will be hard to beat. 2 Lions Contenclej.s In the 132-pound division, Syra cuse's Art Nelson will probably be the favorite, with trouble com ing from Virginia's Bob Rush, Army's Jim McGee and possibly the Lions up-and-coming Sammy Butler. State's defending champs John ny Albarano at 146 and Lou Kos zarek at 165-pounds appear to have the upper hands in their weights. Johnny's chief opposi tion will probably come from Gus Fiacco of Syracuse, while Jeryl Hughes• of Army could give Lou a rough time. The heavyweight class, though under par from recent years, could turn out to be the wildest scramble of all. The big boys who will probably be most prominent are Pete Larson of Catholic U., George 'Kartalian of Syracuse, Mike Hepler of Army, Virginia's Joe Mehalipk, and last but not least, the Lions' surprising Bob Potter. intramuralt Canceled Due to sorority rushing, WRA intramurals have been canceled for the rest of the week, Marple, intra mural chairman, announced' yesterday. Miss Marple said that Ultra murals will • probably last a week longer to niake up' the games missed this week. Next week's games will be played according to the original schedule. By 808 VOSBURG Lions Used 'Freeze' At Bucknell Penn State's basketball t e a m plays the quintet it last used the freeze against when the Lions bat tle Bucknell at Lewisburg Satur day night. Most fans have already forgot ten that the Nittanies ohce used the controversial possession style of play to defeat an opponent. The IBlue and White cagers employed Ithe freeze in last year's contest at Bucknell and down the Bisons, 25-15. 13ucknell partisans groaned as much as Lion followers did af ter Saturday's farce with Pitt. The Lions led 5.3 at halftime. The Lions and Bisons have met once this season.. Coach Elmer Gross' courtmen scored a convinc ing 73-63 triumph in Rec Hall in the early part of the season. Seek to Better Record Saturday's game will close the regular season for the Lions. No matter what happens at I3ucknell, the Lions are assured of their best season in history. Freshman Jesse Arnelle will attempt to get back on the scor ing bandwagon. The six-five cen ter, already holder of State's one season scoring total, will add to his 426 complication. Pitt's stall ing tactics limited Arnelle's out- 1 put to six tallies, his lowest since, the Ithaca opener. McMahan, Team Player Three seniors will finish their regular season careers at State. The team's two captains, nerdy Williams and Jay McMahan, will end three fine years of action. Williams has scored 187 points this year and has an excellent chande to crack the 200 mark for the first time in his collegiate career.' McMahan, six-seven forward, improved rapidly this season and was one of the Nittanies' chief clutch players. Repeatedly, his great hook shot and one hand pusher saved the day for the Grossmen. Tiny has advanced to fifth place in team scoring. PioricoWski is a two year vet eran. He was ineligible a year since he was a transfer. This year Perk was a regular starter and a steady floorman.

MONTREAL, March 4 —(A 3 )-- The Montreal Athletic Commis, sion fined world featherweight champion Sandy Saddler $5O to day, and said he was lucky he wasn't suspended fop 'his conduct in his bout last night with At, mand . Savoie of Montreal. Saddler was disqualified by referee Tommy Sullivan, a f ter three rounds of the scheduled 10- round bout at the Forum, for hitting' on the breaks, heeling, holding and hitting with the laces of his gloves. It was a non-title bout for Saddler, and Savoie, Can adian lightweight champ. "Due to the fact that he (Sad dler) is going into the United States Army—and we like to see a man doing his duty for his country—we will . grive him a chance to mane lilting; we chance will not suspend him," Said Emile Gauthier, commission chairman. "If it Was an prdinaryJime we would suspend Saddler,' , he add, ed. It was Gauthier who climbed into the ring before the fourth round and instructed the referee to disqualify the New York bpxer, The champion's handlers were so incensed at the action that three ,carloads• of police were re quired to help .restore order. There were numerous brawls among the spectators. Nittany heavyweight wrestler Lynn Illingworth has been a vic tim of the same fate as second string quarterbacks ou Notre Dame football teams of the past decade. You can't push Lujacks, Bellellis and Williams out of a job, and throughout the last two seasons of Penn State wrestling the unlimited class was in the mammoth hands of two-time EIWA chainpion Homer Barr. But just as George Ratterman cameinto his own once out of the shadow of Lujack, .so Iling worth has shown brightly away from the shade cast by • the man who reigned three years as State's "Peoples' Choice." State College Product ' After \ three seasons of helping Horner to titles by giving him stiff practice workouts, Lynn has more than adequately taken over the heavyweight starring role for Charlie Speidel's grapplers. "Bigin," a State College boy lOW has made aped at Penn State Just as he did at State College' High four years ago, has won six dual meets in his first varsity sea son and except for a default loss would probably be unbeaten to day. l3igin started his collegiate car eer with a 9-4 decision of Lehigh's Joe Comly. Then he pinned a Virginian in 3:30, threw a Pitt m atma p ,at 8:37, decisioned a Marylander, 7-0 and def eated Army's heavy, Sat Out navy Meet With a 5-0 lbg, Lynn met Syra cuse's Dick Beyer and clearly ap-' geared superior even though tied 3-3 in the second period when misfortune struck. Going .under Beyer for a takedown, Lynn's tender ribs got smacked. Refus ing to quit, Lynn's pleading team mates and the roaring crowd forced him to give in. The meet had already been won. Moves Fait Like ,most of his Lion mat mates, Lynn is prOud owner of a st ate wrestling championship. Piping his 1943 senior year for the State College's Little Lions, Bigin won the joint District VI and IX heavyweight champion ship and followed up his initial , success by winning the State title in the unlimited plass. Despite the gO5 pounds spread over his six-two frame, the big fellow moves quite fast. Particu lar instances of his ability to move were evident in the Army meet when he pulled a quick somer sault reverse and in his sudden step-over reverse in the Virginia meet.
