There is no doubt that the 177 and heavyweight classes hold the key to the future of the Nittanv Lion matmen for the 1956-57 campaign. Not one man with any varsity experience is listed among the several candidates who are seeking a startin g job in these two weights. 'Missing from the Lion wrestling team's pre-season drills for the first time in three years are 1955-56 co-captains Joe Krufka and Bill Oberly. Krufka was the 177-pound regu lar for the Nittanies for three years while his teammate held the heavyweight post throuch Three seasons.

Krufka lost only to Ed Dewitt in the regular season last year but an inury kept him from win- ning any honors in the Eastern 4:w National tournaments. The year before, Krufka placed second in both post-season tournaments. Three men —Bruce Gilmore, Bob Berberich, and Henry Nor wood—head the list of aspirants for Krufka's old stronghold. All three are sophomores and saw action on last season's freshman mat team. Gilmore on Frosh Team Gilmore, who w•as a standout halfback performer for Coach Rip Engle's gridders this past fall, was the starting 177-pound man on the 1955-56 frosh aggregation. He split in tw•o dual encounters, win ning over a Cornell man but los ing in a Lehigh meet. Berberich wrestled in only one meet last year, losing to a Navy grappler in the 177-pound class.' Norwood fought to a draw with a Cornell opponent last year in his lone match of the campaign. He , war a heavyweight then. 5 Heavy Prospects In the heavyweight class, Coach Charley Speidel's best prospects , are Sam Markle, Dan Revie, Les! Walters, Bob Gardner, and Dick Jenkins. Markle and Gardner are seniors, Walters and Revie are juniors, and Jenkirfs is a sopho more. Either of the five men could move into the starting ,lineup. In an intra-squad match earlier this week, Markle defeated Walters on a dose decision. He has the best shot 4t the first team heavy-, weight spot if he beats Revie in another practice match this week. 3 Scooters Score 13 Three players shared scoring honors as Penn State's soccer team won 8. lost 2 and tied 1 in 1956.

The "Hot Rod" did, however, put on a one-man freeze with two minutes remaining in the first half. He stood over the center court line and simply held on to the ball, hoping to pull a Lion defender out of position.
