IGL 'Tests' Begin Today at Syracuse
Armando Vega, Gil Leu and Captain Dion
Weissend are the three top Lion entries in the
Eastern Intercollegiate gymnastics competition
which begins today at Syracuse University.
The eastern "test" is expected to show just
how strong Penn State's 1957 Eastern team
champions will be for the big one two weeks
from now—the Nationals at Navy.
Vega will be defending his Eastern parallel
bar title and his Eastern all-round crown. Weis
send was last year's runner-up in the Eastern
all-round when he finished second to Vega
in rtitosi of the events.
- This meet is the kids' own meet, requiring
individual efforts." Coach Gene Wettstone said.
"To me though, it is an experiment to determine
the strength of our three all-round men."
"It twill be the proving ground for the Na
tionals and will probably determine which 10
men we are going to take to Navy."
Leu is Coach Gene Wettstone's top question
mark in the meet. The graduating Swiss will be
competing in his first collegiate all-round tour
nament
Leu has consistenly outscored Weissend in
dual meets this season. Should he and Weissend
both score high at Syracuse, the Lions may be
in for their fourth national collegiate champion
shir
Today's competition will begin with three
Olympic events—the long horse, calisthenics and
the still rings. They are the first 3 events in the
all-round test.

the 1956 Olympics, has one of the best routines

The horizontal bar, the side horse and the
parallel bar competition, complete the list of
all-round events.
Vega will not enter the eastern flying rings
to conserve his strength and concentrate on de
fending the all-round and parallel bar crowns.
Phil Mullen will be the other defending Lion
champion. The Eastern rope climb champ may
not be "up to form yet," according to Wen.
stone. Army's Paul Dean is his top competitor.
Dean hit a 3.4 this year in defeating Mullen
in the dual meet here two weeks ago. Mullen
had his best time of the year the same night,
a 3.5.
Top darkhorse contenders for the Lions in
the other four individual events include senior
Jack Biesterfeldt on the side horse, Bob Foht,
who could be a "sleeper" if he hits on the paral
lel bars, and the tumbling duo of Adie Stevens
and Dave Dulaney.
Beiesterfeldt probably has the best chance of
the group to come home with a first place
medal. In the Army meet he dropped a one
point, 261-262. decision to the top-rated side
horse competitor, Cadet Gar O'Quinn.
Foht has never really hit this year, according
to Wettstone, but the senior is another part of
the "depth" that the Lion mentor is seeking
for the nationals.
Stevens and Dulaney, who traded top scores
in the six meets, are high 250 scorers and both
beat one of the top-rated tumblers in the East
last week,—Pitt's Dave Hirst.
