ACE SIX Lions Eye Upset; Jaspers Minus Big Three; 5 Lion Thin lads in Finale The hopes of Penn State's trackmen for an upset over Manhattan's powerhouse were giv en a boost when they learned yesterday that three ace Jasper sprinters will not be able to compete ih today's meet, which starts at 1 p.m. on Beaver Field. Lindy Remigino, Joe Schatzle, and John O'Connell will not make the trip for Manhattan. The three stars are suffering from food poisoning received last week when they competed in the Coli seum Relays in Los Angeles, Calif. The Jaspers had to with draw their quarter and half-mile relay squads as a result. Other members of the Manhattan team were also affected, but not as seriously as the three sprinters. Five Lion Seniors The Jaspers had been eyeing a clean sweep in the 100 and 220- yard dashes; however, with the recent turn of events, the Lions may be aiming for a slam. This will be the final dual meet performance for five Lion seniors. Jim Herb, ace high jumper, will be cast against one of the tough est foes of his career when he tries to outjump John Gaffney. Al Schutz and Bill Body will be gunning for some valuable points in the weight events. Bob Roess ler will have some stiff competi tion in the 880, where he will meet Lou Jones. In the mile Bob Gehman will be pitted against Manhattan's Bob Kubic. Ten IC4A Champs Even without three of the Jas pers' top runners the meet will be one of the most outstanding and star-studded ever to take place at the College. Ziegfield was noted for his Fol lies and Barnum and Bailey be came famous with their three ring circus, but today Nittany track mentor Chick Werner will try to put on a performance that will outdo them both. There will be ten IC4A champs competing in the Jasper-Lion meet and also performing will be the PIAA track champions.
