FOR A ,BETTER PENN STATE Senate Rule off 'Mark' Why Penn State has limited its entrants in National Collegiate Athletic Association tournaments in gymnastics, wrestling, and boxing to a total of six men was finally answered 'yesterday. Nittany entries in these national tournaments have been limited to Eastern intercollegiate champions by the Senate committee on athletics. For this reason, only three members of Penn State's EIWA championship wrestling team and two members of the boxing team will compete in the NCAA tournaments. It was for this reason that only one gymnast appeared in the NCAA tournament this past weekend. By virtue of this rule, which completely reverses pre vious College policy, such outstanding athletes as wrestler Jerry Maurey, runner-up in the 137-pound class in the East, and boxer Tony Flore, runner-up in the Eastern 139- pound championships, will not compete in the nationals. By virtue - of this rule, gymnast Bob Lawrence, runner-up in the EarSt on the sidehorse, was not allowed to compete in the nationals this past weekend. Not only are thee athletes being denied something they have earned by virtue of their performances all season long, but a policy has been established for Penn State, which if followed by other NCAA members would all but wreck the NCAA tournaments, for with competition so restricted a win ner would not be a true champion. Penn State has long been a staunch supporter of the NCAA and we see no reason why the College should pull out its support now. And that is exactly what this rule does. The short-sightedness of this policy can be illustrated by citing the case of Don Frey, of the current wrestling team. Beaten in the. Eastern finals last year, Frey went to the nationals, turned the tables on the man who beat him in the East and went on to take second place in the tournament. Frey is injured and unable' to compete in this year's tourna ment, but if he were physically able to compete, this rule would bar him from doing so despite the fact that he is num.,. ber two man in the nation in his weight.

Dr. Schuschnigg, in reply to questions asked him regarding his capitulation to Hitler at Berchtes garden in Feburary, 1938, said, "Before the war I was called a clerical communist by the Nazis and an Austrian fascist by the Communists. But I was never a partisan of dictatorship. I did my best to fight for independ. ence."

Only Titlists May Enter NCAA Meets FIVE CENTS Competition in National Col legiate Athletic Association tour naments by Penn State's wrest lers, boxers, and gymnasts has been limited to athletes who have won Eastern titles, the Daily Collegian learned yesterday. The policy will also apply to all other sports where individual compe tition is involved. The action barring non-champ ions from national competition was made March 17 by the Sen ate committee on athletics. No an nouncement was made at that time, but coaches were informed of the decision. The Daily Collegian learned of the action by the committee from Franklin L. Bentley, chairman. Other members of the committee Norman R. Sparks, and Prof. J. Harris Olewine. Lawrence Already Barred The decision to limit national competition to Eastern champ ions will bar the entry into the NCAA tournaments of wrestler Jerry Maurey, runner-up in the 137-pound division, and box e r Tony Flore, runner-up in the 139- pound division in the East. Already barred from compe tition because of the ruling is gymnast Bob Lawrence, unbeaten in five dual meets, and runner-up in the East on the sidehorse. The national gymnastic championships were held this past weekend. Although this policy is not permanent, Ben tle y - said, last night, the committee will have to change the policy in future years bef ore non-Eastern champions will be allowed to compete in the, nationals. Location Determines Policy Up until this year, Penn State had followed a policy of entering those men who in the opinion of the coaches and the graduate manager of athletics were cap able of meeting the stiff national competition. Last year Penn State entered a full team of eight men in the wrestling championships, held at Lehigh, and four men in the boxing.championships, held at Michigan State. One of the merits to be weighed in determining future policy on this question, Bentley said, was the location of the tournaments. If they are held in the East, he indicated, more men might be entered. The gym tournament was in Colorado. Wrestling is to be held in Colorado, boxing in Wis consin. "We had to set some mark," Bentley said, referring to a criter ion by which the committee is to judge who is to compete in the nationals. He indicated that in the past the decision as to whom would compete in the nationals was made by the coach, the dean of the School of Physical Educa tion and Athletics, and the grad uate manager, subject to the ap (Continued on page eight) Coed's Appeal For Lost $3OO Is Unansvy►ered The $3OO taken from the coat pocket of a Penn State coed was still missing yesterday afternoon despite an appeal for the return. of the money. • The loss was reported Thurs day morning by Henrietta Alder fer, a freshman, who had left her wallet in her coat outside a Sparks classroom.
