TI LT ApTL 8, ,7.,95F Sports Thru The Lion's Eye By JAKE HIGHTON CollOgian Sports Editor Records in the field events of ;the "dream" track meet run off in a, figment of the imagination between Michigan State, Pitt and Penn Stpte, continued to fall as fast as hurdles -in a junior 'high race. Penn Stop. erroneously thought to be habitUallir weak in the field events, scored two first places, in the discus and javelin, to match Michigan State and Pitt's triumphs in the field. Nick Vukmanic (1938), twice Penn Relays winner; won the jave 7 lin for the Lions by pitching the spear for a Nittany record 223'10 1 / 2 ", still better than mast athletes except the whip-armed Finns and Swedes toss today. (The same year of Vukrrionic's tenure at State, Finn Yrjo Nikkanen set the world mark of 258'2%"() - Michigan State's brawny Bob Carey, draft bait of the Los An geles' pro footballers, sent the 16 pound shot 53'%" , from the toe board to set a Spartan record. (Carey was conspicuous Withol his pkess blippings last Saturda: in the Lion -Spartan meet as won the shot, discus and to( second in the javelin as to tre fans who were watching with cii cus curiosity at an All-Ameri6 football end.) Nit t a y' Chu( Drazenovich (1950), triple spo: threat in football, track and bo: ing, - set the mark for the 'Liol with a third place throw of 50'1 (Chuck has been plunging for tl pro Redskins.) Dave' Pincus (1948) gained a] other first for Penn State with school record discus throw. Ph cus' •151'%" spin of the platter is 'considerably less than Fortune Gordien's world standard of 186'11". Pete Bennett (1936) copped the first field event for Pitt in the high jumli with a leap of 6'6 1 / 4 " but Nittany Jim Sykes (1946) set a Penn State mark by defying 6'5%" of gravity. Spartan Fred 'Johnson (1948) traveled through the air 25'4%" to win the broad jump, a half foot ahead of Nittany Al. Bates (1928) And better than a foot behind Jesse Owens' world's best recorded leap. Bates set IC4A records on successive years, his 24'10%" jump in 1928 still standing as a Nittany•record. Pitt picked up its second first place in the "dream" meet's event closing pole vault with Vic Pickard (1929) scaling 13'10". The Lions' JOe Bakura (1941) took a third place for a Penn state record by vaulting 13'5". Thus, Michigan State wins what would have been one of the most thrilling track meets ever held, barring only ,a mythical meet between the Tecordholders of the countries of the „world. Counting five, three and one point for first, second and third respectively, the final 'tally reads: Michigan State, 48; Penn State, 40; aPd Pitt, 38. Army Poses 2d Obstacle To Nittany Track Team Penn State's unskilled, but undaunted track forces will en counter their second obstacle to victory . on Saturday afternoon when they journey to West Point to test heptagonal champion Army. Last weekend, while the Nittany Lions were being vanquished by Michigan State, 91-40, the Black Knights were being overpowered by Manhattan, 77-63. Although the Jaspers won nine of the sixteen events, Army averted a greater rout by coming up with the only double winners of the day. .in Dick Shea, Larry Johnson, and Mario DiLucia Shea Runs 4:24.7 Mile • This same trio will undoubt edly prove troublesome to Coach, Chick Werner's charges in Sat-' urday's contest, 'as they strive to duplicate their feats of last week. Captain Shea, making little ef fort for fast - times, circled the North F i d • academy oval in 4:24:7, with a 57 second final lap, beating' Manhattan's Bob •Kubie by 20 ,yards. Cadet Shea came back again in his two-mile spe ciality to set a meet record' in 9:31.9, finishing • soinel 60 yardS in frchit of teammate Lou 'Davis. Actually, Army's stellar dis 'tante man is,capable of running a 4:10 mile and a 9:11 two mile. During t h e. indoor season, the IC4A chanip was timed in 9:05.8. Johnson Set Hurdle RecOrd. Track fans, .and frosh distance man Lamont Smith, in particular, remember 'Shea for his"formidable running in the rain- hampered Penn.

Both runners are slated to oppose each other in Saturday's duel.
