TUESDAY, JANUARY 18, 1955 Lions Hos T ri •s To • h Sophs to Dot Both Lineups In Wrestiers'-Home-Opener Penn State's wrestling squad opens its 1955 home wrest ling season tonight at Rec Hall 'when it entertains the Uni- Nersity of Maryland. If pre-game releases hold true, both lineups will be liberally dotted with sophomores with the Terps leading the array by using five soh starters. Match time is 8 p.m. Maryland enters the Lion camp with a. 2-0 record. The Terps, defending Atlantic Coast champions, have defeated Wake Forest, 34-0, and Virginia, 20-8, and Gettysburg in an exhibition match. Coach Sully Krouse of Mary land, who has lost each of his, five meets in a series which started in 1941 against the Lion mat squad, has indicated he'll be counting on five sophomores plus two veteran seniors and a junior letterman for his starting, team. Five Pennsylvanians Sophomore John McHugh, from Glenside and one of the five Penn sylvania men opening for the Terps, will.be at 123 pounds. He carded a spotless 9-0 streak as a frosh- grappler. Veterans Ronnie Carroll, junior 130-pounder, and John Little, a senior. from Dormont, may meet the same Lion opponents as in 1954. Carroll, who posted a 5-4 record last winter, was decisioned 7-1 by Bob Roman, the Lions' present captain wrestling at 130 pounds. Little, a senior who lost, 7-2, to Larry Fornicola at 137 pounds in 1954, but finally posted a 6-2 rec ord, :will wrestle at 147 pounds. Longenecker at 137 Manheim's sophomore Ca r 1 Longenecker, who stacked up a 9-0-1 record as a frosh, will repre sent the Terps at 137 pounds. At 167 pounds Alfred Hair, a 5-8 sophomore who earned a 4-3 record as, a frosh, has been picked by Kruse over John Peters, an other Maryland soph. Mayer Littman, a senior from Clearfield High School, who now lives in Maryland, saw limited ac tion last season with a 2-1 record but will probably meet Penn State's versatile 177-pounder Joe Krufka. Carroll, who is considered one of the best of the Terps' light weights, has a counterpart in the heavier ranks in Mike Sandusky. The New Jersey state high school champ, who also has worked the tackle spot for football coach Jim Tatum, will meet Bill Oberly, the Lions' undefeated heavyweight sparkler. Oberly wrestled Sandusky in high school and defeated him both times. Oberly took a 6-1 decision in his junior year, and then pinned his outstanding opponent in his senior year. Sandusky, however, h'as lost weight and gained exper ience 'since his high school bouts with Oberly. In addition, to his lineup which may be sparked with Carroll, Lit tle, and Sandusky, Krouse will be counting heavily on 177-pounder Littman who has won three mat-' ches including a fall over his Wake Forest opponent this year. Indications point to the fact that Coach Charlie Speidel will have a three-way choice for his lineup against the Terps. Definite starters for the Lions will be sophomore Sid Noldand, (123), Captain Homan (130), Kruf- STUVY AMPOAID will again provide a magnificent program of orientation and _entertainment 'for the slimmer 1955 special student sailings of SA/ /• . • r " - r. • "The Happy Campus Afloat" THRIFT FARES TO AND FROM EUROPE For information write ave4/.4 . er4ezve. - 4,0 .

Speidel could insert Fornicola at 137 pounds and shift Pepe to 147 pounds and Adams 'to 157 pounds with either Shawley or Pasko at 167 pounds. If Speidel does use Fornicola, Pasko will go in the 167-pound class. Military Officers' insignia IN STOCK 1/20 10 K. gold bars at prices you can't meet anywhere for the same quality.

PENNSYLVANIA Gymnasts (Continued from page six) again viewed their favorite gym nastic son in action. Finnish-born Je a n Cronstedt, who left Penn State last year as a junior to begin medical studies i.-- Sweden, brought tremendous rounds of applause f r o m the stands as he exposed the talent which carried him to an unprece dented four.rational titles in last year's NCAA gym meet. During that meet, in which the Nittany Lions copped team hon ors for the second straight year, Cronstedt was acclaimed the na tion's greatest all-around colleg iate gymnast. Saturday's spectators also got a look at a possible future Nittany Lion. gymnast. Staffan Carlson, red-headed Swedish performer who pleased the crowd with his skillful tumbling and table vault ing routines, may come to ,Penn State next year as a freshman. At 19, the talented gymnast is now enrolled in high school in Orebro, Sweden. Littler difference was noted in the rounds of applause that re suited from the Swedish women's synchronized ball and balance beam routines, or the men's ap paratus gymnastics. A GUIDE FOR THE DATELESS With the cost of dating rising higher and higher (seems the only pleasure that costs the same these days is Philip Morris), it is no wonder that so many of us men are turning to discus throwing. Naturally, we would prefer nuzzling warm coeds to flinging cold disci, but who's got that kind of money? Prices being what they are, the average man today has a simple choice: dating or eating. Unless the average man happens to be Finster Sigafoos. Let me tell you how Finster Sigafoos, a man no smarter, no richer, than you or I, solved his dating problem. Finster came to college with the normal Ambition of any average man: he wanted to find the prettiest coed on campus and make her his. He looked long and carefully, and at last he found her a tall job named Kretchma Inskip) with hair like beaten gold. He asked her for a date. She accepted. He appeared at her sorority house that night, smiling, eager, and carrying a bou quet of modestly priced flowers. "Now then," said Kretchma, tossing the sleazy flora to a, pledge, "where are we going tonight?" Finster was a man short on cash, but long on ideas. He had prepared several attractive plans for this evening. "Ho' would you like to go out to the Ag campus and see the milking machine?" he asked. ( _ _ "Ick," she replied. "Well then, how about running over to the dental school to fool with the drills ?" "Bah," she replied. "Well, what would you like to do?" he asked. "Come," said she, "to a funny little place I know just outside of town." And away they went. The place was Millionaires Roost, a simple country inn made of solid ivory. It was filled with beautiful ladies in backless gowns, handsome men in dickeys. Waiters scurried about bear ing costly eats on flaming swords. Original Rembrandts adorned the walls. Philip Morris trays adorned the cigarette girls. Chained to each table was a gypsy violinist. Finster and Kretchma were seated. `TI," said Kretchma to the waiter, "will start with shrimps remoulade. Then I will have lobster and capon in madeira sauce with asparagus spears. For dessert I will have loads of out-of-season fruit." "And you, Sir ?" said the waiter to Finster. "Just bring me a pack of Philip Morris," replied Finster, "for if ever a. man needed the soothing, steadying, beneficent aromas of mild vintage tobaccos, it is me now." So, smoking the best of all possible cigarettes, Finster watched Kretchma ingest her meal and calculated that every time her fetching young adam's 'apple rose and fell, he was out another 970. Then he took her horae. It was while saying goodnight that Finster got his brilliant idea. "Listen !" he cried excitedly. "I just had a wonderful notion. Next time we go out, let's go Dutch treat!" By way of reply, Kretchma slashed him across the face with her house mother and stormed into the house. "Well, the heck with her," said Finster to himself. "She is just a gold digger and I am well rid of her. I am sure there are many girls just as beautiful as Kretchma who will under stand the justice of my position. For after all, girls get as much money from home as men, so what could be more fair than sharing expenses on a date?" With good heart and high hopes, Finster began a search for a girl who would appreciate the equity of Dutch treat, and you will be pleased to hear that he soon found one. Today Finster goes everywhere and shares expenses fifty-fifty with 'Mary Alice Hematoma, a lovely three legged girl with sideburns. ©Max Shulman, MS • This column is brought to you for your enjoyment by the makers of PHILIP MORRIS.
