Pepe,
Penn State’s bid for Eastern wrestling honors isn't as dead
as many Lion fans have been led to believe.
This was proven by Coach Charley Speidel’s malmen! over thej
weekend when they surprised everyone but themselves by walloping
highly-rated Syracuse, 24-8, Saturday afternoon at Syracuse.
The win was the fifth in seven matches for the Nittanies and!
regained much of the prestige that was lost in the defeats to Lehigh
and Navy.
Syracuse, whose only previous setbacks had been to Lehigh
and Pitt, was supposed to have one of the best teams in the East
this season. But the Orange didn’t show any of this offensive luster
against the Lions.
Penn State won all but the 177 and heavyweight bouts and
at one time had a 24-0 lead.
The Lions scored two falls in the relatively easy win and
claimed another five points via a
default in the 123-pound class.
Syracuse had one pin

won his fifth.
Nodland got the Lions off to
an easy start when he won a for
feit from Ed Carlin. Carlin, whose
only previous loss was to Cor
nell’s Carmen Molino, pulled a
cartilage in practice Friday night.
Johnston took charge of his
match with George Creason from
the start and rolled to an easy 6-0 Earl Poust
win. It was Johnston's second vie- Surprize at 157
torv over Creason. Last year he decisioned the Syracuse junior. 10-3
Pepe picked up the Lions tirst fall when he threw winless
Bob McDermott at 4:29 with a half nelson and crotch. Pepe. who
now owns a 6-1 record, was ahead by a 6-0 count at the time.
It took Lion co-raptain Dave Adams only a minute and fifty j
seconds to dispose of sophomore Bob Miranda in the 147-pound;
class. He decked Miranda for a takedown early in the period and'
then slipped a cradle hold into him for the fall.
Earl Poust gave Speidel something to cheer about in the 157
pound class when he handed highly-regarded Hal Lavanhar his:
second loss in six starts, 11-8. ' •
Poust had a 4-2 lead at the end of the first period, ran the
margin to 6-3 in the second, and closed with a strong third period.
Bruce Gilmore gave the Lions their lasi victory of the after
noon when he defeated 167-pound Gordon Carberry. 4-2. The
match was pretty even until Gilmore scored a takedown in the
dosing seconds of the match.
Les Walters, making his second appearance, fought the un
defeated White on even terms throughout the first two periods but 1
couldn't escape a third period body press and arm bar and was
pinned by White in 6:50. i
Syracuse’s Chuck Dinklemeyer rounded out the scoring for the
day when he docisioned Sam Markle, 9-1.

The Nittany Lion gymnasts finally failed to win every event, but still had plenty of
punch to submerge Syracuse, 67-29, for their third straight Eastern Intercollegiate Gym

undoubtedly decide the League championship. Army swamped Temple, a former Lion vic-
