Apparently they think it doesn't offer as much opposition as another grappler. The trio of captains will lead Penn State in its first double-header of the season in Rec Hall tonight. The wrestlers meet Lehigh while the basketball squad faces Ithaca. jpgum College Prepares Joint Program For Engineers Arrangements have been com pleted between Penn State and five other colleges for joint pro grams to train students in en gineering. Under the provisions of the plan, students enrolled at any of the colleges, Albright, Gettys burg, Lycoming, Muskingum, or Westminster, will complete three years work and then transfer to Penn State for an additional two years complete training in one of the several engineering curricu lums. Upon completion of the work, a student will qualify for degrees from both colleges. The program is designed to meet the critical need for men trained in engineering. It will al so enable a student to obtain a general education in a liberal arts college as well as a tech nological education in a school of engineering in five years. This replaces the six or more years that might be required without the planned program. The joint program should also prove a fi nancial saving for some students.
