The Lion's Eye

' Penn State sports fans were faced with a delightful dilemma
Saturday afternoon. A three-ring circus of events on campus, Olym
pic gym tryouts, Lafayette baseball game, and the Blue-White foot
ball game, all were an attractive lure for the sports appetite. Un
fortunately, each was held in a different Madison Square Garden
and you couldn't have the displeasure of stretching your neck from
one ring . to the other.
Any choice the fan made couldn't have been the wrong one.
On the Beaver,. Field diamond, Joe Bedenk's nine was scoring its
eighth straight victory while in another corner, Rip Engle was un
veiling his - grid forces in a spring preview,
But for sheer imnortance and dramatic intensity, the NAAU-
Olympic gym meet deserved top-billing. Justly,\ it had more eyes
focused on it-4500 fans Saturday night plus NBC television (1200
feet), Twentieth Century Fox, Life, AP, and myriads of amateur
photographers.
American flag and bunting-draped Rec Hall , was host to spec
tacular performances by lithe and muscular gymnasts of the nation
who performed marvels of balance, skill and aerial manipulation in
pursuit of an Olympic berth.
The road to the coveted goal was, as always, strewn with near
miss disappointments. Joe Kotys, Cleveland Swiss TUrners, missed
the eight-man USA team by .1 of a point.
Competition was so keen among these finest exhibitionists in the
sports world that 9th place finisher in the all-around, Joel Babba,
Philadelphia Turners, missed , the . Helsinki boat by .2 of a point;
Mel Stout, Germantown YMCA, by .3 of a . point; and Bob Sullivan,
Illinois, .4 away in 12th place.
One of the "lucky" eighth-place winners on the women's team
really wasn't lucky she was heroic. Marie Hoesly, Madison
Turners, a 35-year-old farmer's wife arose every day at 5 a.m. to
do her farm work during her diligent training period. Chores done,
twice a week the farmerette-gymnait traveled 100 miles.to Madison
in order to workout. Were the corporeal judges alone passing
judgment?
Anon-Olympian but still a thriller, Dick Browning, formerly of
Illinois, repeated his NAAU tumbling title with a twisting, turning
performance which put tumblemieeds to shame. The Whirling Dev
irish didn't' even have the advantage of a wind at his back.
The grand climax was the Olympic selection announcement.
Facing a firing squad of photographers, the 16 athletes were -sent
on the first leg of their journey to Helsinki with the Penn State
Blue Band's rendition of Sibelius' moving "Finlandia." No longer
representative of Florida State Gymkana, American Turners' or
Swiss Gymnastic Society, the USA gym team began the first leg
of its journey—via the dreamy imagination.
