SATURDAY. MARCH 0. 1954 Boxers Seek 2nd at Army By ROY WILLIAMS On the third leg of a four-match road trip, Penn State's boxing team will face Army this afternoon at West Point. The Lions will be seeking their second straight victory, after dropping three and tieing one this season. Penn State's eight-man lineup will remain intact except for one change at the 139-pound division. Ronnie Smith, the fifth sopho more on the Lion ring team, will replace Don Martin, a junior. Smith has had no previous var sity experience, although he is a product of the intramural com petitions 'last fall. Comparative Score In comparing Virginia's indi vidual record against Army, and then with the Lions who rocked the Cavaliers 5 1 / 4 -2%, the Penn Staters should have a slight edge. Virginia tied Army, 4-4. Virginia's 125-pounder Bill Ban erdt defeated Army's Weinstein, but Harry Papacharalambous, veteran Lion, fought to a 30-30 draw with Banerdt, In the 132-pound class, Nittany Bob McMath fighting his first match defeated Virginia's Bob Rush. Rush defeated Army 's Merola. Don Martin's win over Vir ginia's 139-pounder, Grice White ly, would give the Lions the edge in this weight. Whitely defeated Army's Mike Stevenson, Eastern Cadet last year. Smith to be Underdog But Smith's replacement of Mar tin may give Stevenson . the nod over Penn State's rugged but in experienced lightweight. Larry Stokes, Lion 147-pounder carrying the best individual rec ord of 4-1, defeated Virginia's ring newcomer, Bill Young. But Andy Maloney from Army will give Stokes tougher competition than he faced against the Cava liers. Maloney . was 147-p ou n d Eastern Champ last year, after carding an undefeated season of 5-0-1. Army holds potential trouble for the Lions in three of the re maining four weight classes-156, 165, 178, and heavyweight. Eastern Semi-Finalists In the first two light-heavy weight slots. Army boasts two Eastern semi-finalists. Don Run dle, 156-pounder, will face Don DeMay, the Lion sophomore who has been pitted against senior standout opponents all season. Army's Rundle lost to Virginia's Pete Potter last year, but showed recent improvement in his draw with Potter this year. Frank Breidor, 165-pound Lion, will face Clyde Massey, Army's second 1953 Eastern semi-finalist. Massey defeated Sonny Nichols of Virginia, and Nichols decisioned Breidor last week,. 29-27: In the 178-pound class, Adam Kois seeks his fourth victory STANDS OUT in play • Harder Smashes • Better Cut and Spin STANDS UP in your racket • Moisture Immune e Lasting Liveliness COSTS LESS than gut APPROX. STRINGING COST: Pro-Fected Braid-46.00 Multi-Ply 8raid......55.00 At tennis shops• and sporting goods stores. ASHAWAY BRAIDED, RACKET S TRING ".• •-• Choice Ch against Army's Ed Mendell. Kois defeated the Cadets 178-pounder last year in the Easterns. Joe Goleman, Lion he av y weight, meets Frank Hicks, Ar my's semi-finalist in the East erns last year. Goleman, a junior, has a 1-1-1 card. On paper Penn State looks stronger in the first four bouts than the Cadets. If the Lions can win three out of the first four matches as they - did last week at Virginia coupled with a win by Adam Kois, the worst they can post against the Cadets is a 4-4 tie.

PENNSYLVANIA Soph Slump Did Not Show In Bevo's Case NEW YORK, March 5 (IP) There's b een no "sophomore slump" for Clarence (Eevo) Fran cis, the Rio Grande basketball shotmaker. , Despite a tougher schedule aid special defenses to "stop . 13evo; ' Francis has finished the regular season with a smashing 50 point per-game average on 1100 mark ers in 22 contests. That's just a shade below the 50.1 average he posted as a freshman last year when he tallied 1954 points. The difference is that his work will go doWn in the record books for this season whereas his 1952- 53 marks never were recognized because Rio Grande did not play a full four-year college schedule. NCAA Service Bureau statistics released today show that Francis is almost 20 points ahead of the field in the matter of scoring av erage among the nation's small colleges.
