Sabol Decisions^ Dill
Sabol used a good two handed
attack to outscore his opponent,
Dick Dill, Theta Kappa Phi, in the
initial round. The 175-pounders
were fast and evenly matched in
the final round but a sharp upper
cut by Sabol had a telling effect
on Dill.
Lockerman was a clear cut win
ner over Truman Burch, Theta
Chi. Lockerman mixed-up his
punches well, but most effective
were his short jabs to the head
and a powerful right and blow
to the mid-section.
Mandeville Hits Hard
Thr real crowd pleaser of the
evening saw a sharp-boxing Man
deville clearly outclass Calder
one. Mandeville waited for his
openings' and landed several solid
blows to Calderone's head and
stomach.
In the first round; Calderone
went flying out of the ring and
landed on the Rec Hall floor when
Mandeville sidestepped his wick
ed, wild left hand thrust. A fast
pair of hands and a steady left jab
kept Calderone in trouble the rest
of the way.
In the first bout, Dempsey lost
his first fight in three Outings
when Referee Don Watkins stop
ped the action in the second round.
Heffron took an early lead and
was in command the entire way.
Hunter Wins in 30 Seconds
Hunter wasted no time dispos
ing of Kovacs in 145-pound bout.
Hunter rushed in with three
booming shots at Kovacs' head
and the bout was stopped with
less than thirty seconds gone.
Indie Collins used a two-handed
barrage and a few brief flurries
to defeat Lazarus in 145-pound
action.
In another 145-pound clash,
Knipe proved that steady punch
ing is better than a few seconds
of slugging, when he scored a de
cision over Bob Drotar.
In 155-pound slugfest, Lobb de
feated Corekin in the last bout
on the night's program. Lobb gar
nered an early lead and held on
to stave off Corekin's last round
bid for victory.
Cubs Seeking
Centerfielder
CHICAGO, Dec. 12 (fP) The
trade-minded Chicago Cubs today
brought up Pacific Coast League
All-Star shortstop Kendall Wise
from Los Angeles in a move ap
parently aimed at acquiring a new
centerfielder.
In exchange, the Cubs gave
catcher Joe Hannah.
Although the Cubs have an es
tablished second-base combina
tion in shortstop Ernie Banks and
second sacker Gene Baker, rum
ors persisted Baker might be trade
bait for a centerfielder.
Outfielder Frank Thomas or
Lee Walls of the Pittsburgh Pi
rates is said to be coy - ted by Cub
General Manager Jo • Holland.

aft.
The office was crowded; people were milling about everywhere,
and when I heard a knock at the door I thought it was another stu
dent with a routine complaint. But surprises never seem to end.
The door opened and a voice, which is recognizable anywhere
on the four corners of the world, said: "Have any aspirins for Charley
(Speidel); he probably needs them."
"Wally." I cried out. "I thought you dropped out of school."
"Sure, I did." he answered, "but you forgot wrestling season
starts Saturday and I haven't missed a meet in six years. Flunk
ing nine credits isn't going to stop this boy from missing any meets."
"Wally the Wrestling Fan," I repeated, "I'm sure glad you're
going to be here for the Colgate meet. Did you see Speidel yet?"
"Yea, Charley and me we discussed the prospects but you know
him," Wally replied, "he talks to you for two hours and you know
less than when you started. But I think in a few more weeks I'll
be able to get the real dope."
"What do you think of the team," I asked. .
"Well," Wally snorted, "to tell you the truth rye seen them
practice only three times, but as far as I can see Charley will have
a top-flight team and should lose only one or two meets at the most.
"He hasn't anything to worry about in the lower weights with
Sid Nodland, Johnny Johnston, John Pepe, and Dave Adams, but
in the heavier weights he has trouble, now that Oberly and Krufka
are gone.
"Sid is a smart boy in that 121-pound class and it'll be him or
Hulings from Pitt in the championship. I don't think he'll lose a
match all year, and the same goes for Johnston.
"In his first year last season Johnny was tops and I predict
that he'll beat that Peery kid from Pitt when they meet in March.
He lost by only one point last year and remember that was because
he lacked a few seconds of riding time."
"But," I interj,•cted, "what if one of them is injured; then what's
Charley going to do."
Wally glared, tried to bum a cigarette from a writer, and did
everything possible to change the subject. But I insisted he an
swer. "You're too confounded pessimistic." he ripped back. "why
all you dirty MS" writers think of is to put me on the spot. I'm
sticking by the fifth amendment."
"Okay, I'm sorry," I answered, "but continue your rundown of
the team."
"I don't know if I should," he replied angrily, "but if you insist,
all right. Pepe will be tougher than ever at 137. He's stronger and
smarter and should give Charley some enjoyable moments. Adams
will be king at 147, unless Charley moves him up to 157, then hell
have to work harder because he'll be facing a lot of heavy boys.
Remember the .only man who could beat him consistently was Ed
Eichelberger, of Lehigh, and he was the best wrestler in the country.
'rom 157 up it's anybody's guess as to who will start Satur
day. A few football players might break in. but you know Thai Les
Walters lost in the eliminations this week, so he's out for the
Colgate meet at least. Bruce Gilmore, a top wrestler at Reading
High School, has a chance for one of the spots, but as I said before
only Charley knows. He doesn't; ]
even tell his men until a few;
minutes before they have tol
wrestle. I guess he figures every- I
one's out to get him."
"Well, that's how the team'
shapes up," Waily said, "and
about time for me to shove off.',
See you at the meet and please,
let's not have another set of se
quence shots of Charley again,
this year."
"Okay," I said, "I'll try to be
more original "

EDIBLE SPORT SHIRTS?
Among the sort of sport shirts
that Van Heusen refuses to
make are the following:
Sport shirts that light up in
the dark: These are the kind
that flash messages, like "Hey,
baby, you're a honey," or
"Pass the ashtray, please."
Useful for parties, faculty teas
and cotillion balls. But they
tend to commercialize the
graceful art of conversation.
Sport shirts with road maps
on them: Too dangerous. Say
you're driving from campus
to the big city. You don't know
whether to turn left or right
at the turnpike, so you look
down at your shirt to check.
Crash!
Edible sport shirts: Too mis

on your chest. You think she's
fond of you. Suddenly you hear
"munch, munch," and there
goes your delicious shirt! It
was it she craved, not you!
But the sport shirts that
Van Heusen does make are
fascinating. Dashing checks,
interesting plaids, splendid
stripes, solids in some very
unusual colors. Their cut is
free and comfortable ... their
style is original and flattering.
