Joe Walcott,
Charles Sign
For Title Bout
PHILADELPHIA. March 31—
(JP)—Heavyweight champion Jer
sey Joe Walcott and challenger
Ezzard Charles signed' contracts
for a 15 round title match June 5
at Philadelphia's lYluncipal Sta
dium amid a mob scene today
that would have made Cecil B.
DeMille proud.
They should have considered
renting that same 120,000 seat
stadium for the signing of this
fourth title meeting between the
37-year-old Walcott of Camden,
N.J . ., and the 30-year-old Charles
from Cincinnati. Mayor James S.
Clarks' city hall reception room
looked like •it had been invaded
by the entire cast of one of the
famous DeMille movies.
No Decision on TV
Somehow, under the glaring of
floodlights, reporters were able
to learn that each fighter will
grab 30 per cent of the gate, in
cluding television. and radio
broadcasts, and. motion picture
royalties. Five per cent goes to
the Philadelphia Police Athletic,
League and one per cent goes td
the Camden PAL. Both organiza
tions sponsor boys recreation
groups.
Taylor shouted through the din
that no decision has been reached
on television and/or radio broad
casts of the fight. He said he was
in favor of ' theater TV if the
price was right., At any rate, he
yelled through cupped hands,
"Philadelphia will be blacked 'out
of any TV broadcast."
Will Gross $600,000
Oddly enough the quietest man
in,the house was Jake Mintz, one
of Charles' co-managers. The usu
ally volatile Jake loosened up
only long enough to say he
thought the gross would be 600,-
000; that Jimmy Brown andßay
Arcel - would train Charles and
they would like to train near
Philadelphia if a proper site can
be obtained. His partner in di
recting.' Charles, To m Tannas,
agreed on all counts.

does look like the brightest pros
pect of all the relays this season,"
according to Werner.
The coaches are still trying to
find some sprinters. They feel
that there must be some on cam
pus that haven't reported as yet.
One of Werner's major prob
lems this season will be filling
the , sshoes of sprinter 011ie Sax,
who was dropped from school in
February because of disciplinary
action. In pacing assistant Coach
Norm Gordon's frosh team to a
3-1 log, Sax eclipsed the quarter
mile record of 50.6 set in , '42 by
Cliff St. Clair, covering the course
with . a fast 49.4 clocking. After
leaving State, 011ie has success
fully defeated' the nation's best
quarter milers in George Rhoden
of Morgan State, and Herb Mc-
Kenley of Jamaica, tabbing him
self as the newest U.S. Olympic
hope in the quarter mile event.
Sax may re-enter next fall.

Eight Lions
Will Enter
NAAU Meet
Penn State will bank its Na
tional Aniateur Athletic Union
(NAAU) and Olympic hopes on
eight gymnasts when the tourna
ment opens April 25-26 in Hee
Hall.
State, however, will be at a dis
tinct disadvantage in the Olympic
competition as freshman Jan
Cronstedt will not be eligible be
cause he is not a United States
citizen. Cionstedt will compete
only in the NAAU
,champion
ships.
The eight highest men in the
all-around competition will make
up the Olympic team.
.In the all-around, Tony Pro=
copio and K a r 1 Schwenzsfeier
will carry State's hopes into bat
tle against a strong field, includ
ing Joe Kotys, - former Kent State
star who• represented the United
States in the all-around in the
1948 Olympic games. Kotys holds
a• flock of titles, including the
1951 NAAU parallel bar crown.
• Cronstedt will seek NAAU
ties on the parallel bars, horizon
tal bar and calisthenics. In the
NCAA's at Boulder, Colo., last
week, Cronstedt tied for third
place on the parallels with Al
Quartararo, Navy, with a 261
score. -
On the horizontal bar, the slen
der freshman tied Paul Goodale,
California, with 262, and in the
calisthenics Cronstedt took third
place with 250 points.
A pair of Wicks—Al and Frank
—will represent State on the side
horse.
Besides Cronstedt, Bill Sabo
will also team up with Cronstedt
in:the• calisthenics and on the par
allel• bars.
Bob Kreidler wil go for the Nit
tany Lions in the long horse jump
and in Indian club swinging, - an
event similar to juggling.
Bob Kenyon rounds out State's
team and he will go in his spe
cialty, the tumbling event.
Farrell Fans
Take the Town
FARRELL, Pa., March 31—(?P)
—Students of, Farrell high school
"took the town" today—in fact,
two towns—in celebration of their
conquest of the state Class A
basketball championship.
After wildly parading through
the streets of Farrell, students
elithhed into 75 or 100 automobiles
and drove to nearby Sharon—
home of its traditional rival in
basketball and the only team
which beat Farrell this season.
Farrell beat Coatesville 63-55 to
capture the championship.
The students occupied State
street, Sharon's main thorough
fare, and halted traffic for some
time. There was no serious dis
order.
Farrell Principal Anthony Pin
tar granted a day's holiday after.
a chapel session attended by a
roaring crowd of a b out 2500.

Nittany Golfers Hope
To Top 1951 Record
Despite the fact that only three lettermen, John Wylie, Hud
Samson, and Captain Bob Bowers, return to this year's golf team,
hopes are running high of beating last year's record of six wins and
three losses.
The reason for this optimistic view is the flock of top candidates,
most of them freshmen, out for the varsity. Rod Eaken, a sophomore,
and Bill Albert, a senior, are the
best looking prospeds. Rod was
PIAA golf champion in '4B and
Bill took top honors in last year's
fraternity medal play and also
in the All-College golf tourney.
Some of the other candidates
are Gordon Stroup, Warren Gitt
len, James Mayes, and Donald
Thomas.
A series of elimination rounds
to pick out the best seven men
will start on Tuesday, April 22.
The first match of the regular
season is on April 30 against
Gettysburg.

Under the direction of Coach
Bob Rutherford Jr., the Lion golf
