In the latest national wrestling ratings, the Panthers.are ranked third in the nation behind second place Oklahoma and first place Oklahoma A&M while the Nit tany Lions are in fourth place only a few points away. The Lion matmen are not only seeking revenge for being beaten in the EIWA tourney but also for the 19-8 drubbing they received last year from the Panthers. The Lions were also beaten in 1954 by Pitt, 22-8. 2 Probable Rematches Probable rematches this year will be at the 123-pound and heavyweight divisions where Sid Nodland and Bill Hulings and Bill Oberly and Don Schirf are slated to meet. In the '55 meet Nodland and Hulings drew 1-1, but in the EIWA tournament Hulings beat Nodland to cop the 123 title. Nod land reversed this loss in the Wilkes Tournament last Decem ber when he pinned his tough adversary to win the title. ' Nodland in Solid Shape Nodland, who was slightly in jured last week, is in solid shape and should be in top condition for the "rubber match" with Hul ings tomorrow night. Oberly edged Schirf last year, 6-4, after trailing 1-0 going into the last period. The unbeaten Lion then turned on the heat racking up six points in three minutes while Schirf could only notch three. Don Huff, Pitt's 177 pounder, also scored a victory over one of the present Lion matmen—Joe Humphreys. Huff decision e d Humphreys, 3-2, in the 157-pound match, which shows Huff's ability to wrestle at two extreme weights. DeWitt Pinned Pasko Humphreys was also defeated by Ed DeWitt in the EIWA elimi nations later in the '55 season. DeWitt, in last year's meet with the Lions, pinned Ed Pasko in the 167 pound class. DeWitt will probably meet Ernie Young this year, since Pas ko was declared ineligible at the fall semester's end. There is also the possibility that Humphreys might be shifted to the 167 spot, if he is needed. Panthers Arriving Today Coach Rex Peery and his un beaten Panthers will arrive in University Park sometime this afternoon and will probably work out on the Rec Hall mats tonight. What the Pitt lineup will be is as baffling as who Charley Spei del will start for the Lions. Both coaches are master strategists and if their pre-season tactics are any indication of what is in store for tomorrow's battle, then the first people to know the exact lineup will be the fans who enter Rec Hall first and see it on the giant scoreboard. The meet will begin at 7 p.m. with a sell-out crowd of 6000 al most assured.

Panther Standouts 11 4, • John Riser Panther Forward * * * One More to Go Cages Meet Pitt In Season's Finale The University of Pittsburgh now looms as the last hurdle the Nittany Lion cagers must clear in their fight to finish the season out of the red. A win over the Panthers to morrow night wouldn't exactly put the Lions in the blue, but it would give them a respectable .500 record for the year. The Lions have seen more of the open road and foreign courts! this year than they have of Rec reation Hall, and the lack of home encounters has seemed to be a. detriment to the cagers. A win at' Rec Hall was a common occur-; rence over the past couple of! years, but a game there has been' a rarity this campaign. The Nittanies have been on they road 17 of the 25 games played , so far Of the 17, the cagers have' been able to win only seveni while dropping 10.
