1101SCAY, POMMY 10, itss Orange Cast Uncertain For Saturday Mat Test When it comes to trying to name the most likely lineup that Penn State's matmen will encounter when they travel to Syracuse Saturday, only two things are safe to say: Syracuse will show up for the match and coach Joe Daniel will name an eight-man team 'to handle the Orange wrestling chores. But whom Daniel. will choose for what particular weight to face the Lions is like picking not only all the winning horses in a day's racing, but also naming which horses will run in what race before the scratch sheet is released. Daniel, whose Orange squad has a 2-1 record, has juggled 12 men into different weight classes for his squad's last three matches; but at the same time, Daniel has used four of his men in no less than ten different combinations, In grabbing_ wins from Temple, 22-8, and finally Army, 18-14, tar losing his opener to Cor land, 18-18, Daniel has stuck with only two men as starters in three matches. Fink Only Unbeaten Don Clark, 123-pounder with a 2-1 record, and heavyweight George Fink, only man on the squad with a 3-0 record, have seen action in Syracuse's three mat ches. In the remaining six weights the list of Syystcuse matmen is nothing but a puzzle of names that changed with each of the meets. Daniel has indicated with re peated changes that he has been experimenting to seek the best combinations in his 147-, 157-, 167-, and 177. pound classes. Rooney Tried Two Weights Ron Marinello and Ed Rooney hold the honors for moving around in weights. Both men have wrestled in three different weights in as many matches. Mar inello has worked the 147-, 187-, and 167-pound weights, for a 1-2 record; his teammate, Rooney, was first moved from 157 pounds to 177 pounds for the Temple match and then to the 187 class against Army. Rooney, however, in facing Cortland,. Army, and Temple, has won each of his mat ches. Bob Smith and Tom King also have been shifting between two weights. King wrestled his first two matches against Cortland and Temple. He won both but then lost when he replaced Bill Torres at 137 pounds against Army. Torres had lost his first two mat ches against the Owls and the New York school. Smith first wrestled at 177 pounds and won against Cortland. Then he shifted to 167 pounds against Temple and won again.
