Shamrock Swing AIM Band SATURDAY, MARCH 17 HUB Ballroom 9-12 Admission Free TIM Nittany West Halls Pollock Scanning SPORTS By FRAN FANUCCL Asst. Sports Editor KRUFKA'S UNTOLD INJURY: Of all the stories stemming from last week’s Eastern Intercollegiate wrestling tournament probably the most dis cussed one was the case of Lion 177-pounder, Joe Krufka. Why he was the main topic of discussion is easy to realize. One of the top pre-tourney favorites and second-seeded in his division only to Pitt's Ed DeWitt, Krufka ended in fourth place. Although fourth place is considered almost excellent for any wrestler, for Krufka it isn't. The fans’ expectations of Krufka before the tournament were that he should win it or at least be second. Anything lower than that was taboo Krufka lived up to expectations the first day, when he pinned Don Mayer, Princeton, in the first round of action and then that 'night, in the quarter finals, shut jout Clinton Blume, Colgate , 3-0. •The next day in the semi-finals, | Krufka was beaten by Navy’s iEd Zabrycki, who he had beaten 9-0 earlier this year, 7-2. And in 'the colsolation match he was de cisioned by Ron Fleming, of jFranklin and Marshall, 5-2. The reasons for these losses •was a shoulder injury, which left 'his right arm practically power i less. This happened three days .before the Pittsburgh meet. Kruf- Ika was injured in practice when he pulled the muscles connecting his chest and back. The injury wasn’t made public because as Coach Charley Spei del says: “Many things happen during the season that can’t be told, not even to reporters.’* If the injury was publicized then the opposing team would work over the injured part of his body in an effort to win.- This would cause further aggravation of the injury and possibly force Krufka to withdraw from competition.' 1 At the EIWA’s the injury got so bad at one point that Krufka could not even lift a water pitch er from the table without an ex treme effort. But he still wrestled. In the first two matches Krufka met mediocre wrestlers, but in the second day of the tournament it was a different story. His op ponents were big and fast and most important of all, strong. This was too much for Krufka to' cope with. This is the reason for the sup posedly disappointing showing of Krufka, even though some fans might look upon this as sour grapes or just plain excuses for losing. Probably the most potent driv ing force behind the Lions at the THURSDAY. MARCH 15. 1956 EIWA’s was trainer Chuck Med lar. To express the value that Medlar is worth is almost an im possibility. The veteran trainer went with out meals, stayed at the gym for hours taking care of injuries, kept the boys quiet under pres sure, and was a combination nursemaid and doctor. The members of the team when asked what they thought of Med lar’s work at the tournament re plied with a barrage of compli ments ranging from: "Without him we couldn’t have gotten to f ; ”' t base,” to “He’s the greatest th .g Penn State sports have.” : Speidel called him his “silent partner” and said that he was the outstanding member of the team. ! The proof of Medlar’s invalu able training is the fact that every sports team here seeks his serv ices at all home games and al most all away games. Medlar is kept busy year round. He is the top man in the football locker room, at some basketball games, wrestling meets, gymnastic meets, baseball games, and track events. To show their appreciation for what he did at the EIWA’s, the wrestling team bought him a small gift and wrapped in ma terial which is synomonous with the name Medlar—adhesive tape. *** THE HOW LUCKY CAN YOU GET DEPT. Dick Packer, record-breaking soccer player for the Lions last fall, scored four goals with the Philadelphia Uhriks two weeks ago to lead the team to victory. Following the game the TJhriks were offered an invitation to play some soccer teams in Monaco for one w>eek in April and to see (yep you guessed it) the Grace Kelly wedding. Bond Day in November “Band Day” has become a top attraction of each football season. In 1956, high school bands will converge on the campus for the Boston University game, Nov. 10. •Hummel Fishburn again will be in charge.
