and, against Quantico, set a new school record in the high hurdles
with a :14.0 time.
The only other unbeaten thinclad is discus man John Tullar.
Tullar, who also heaves the shot put, threw the discus 161’ Glr”
against Ohio State —good enough for a new meet record.
Besides Perry and Tullar, Lion Coach Chick Werner will enter
the same men who competed in the Buckeye loss. In addition he
will also insert Harry Fuehrer—who missed the last meet because
of an injury—into the pole vault event.
Dick Winston and Ted Lopuhsinsky join Perry to give the Lions
a strong hurdle attack. Winston, whose own talents are partially
hidden by the presence of Perry, will also enter the broad jump
and 100-yard dash.
Perry, in addition, will compete in the shot put and high jump.
Ed Moran, Fred Kerr and Chuck King are the top choices
in the distance events with Moran, King, Jim Norton and Dave
Nash handling the middle distance chores. Chet Cotton and Buster
Thomas will handle the sprints.
Werner thinks the two-week layoff since the Buckeye meet,
brought about by the cancellation of the Colgate meet, has hurt
the team.
Werner also thinks that his team can win the meet tomorrow,
despite the fact they were beaten by the Buckeyes before.
“We’re just as good as they are. if not better,” he said. “Our
boys were just scared because of their- name."

ALL ABOUT THE CHAMP
He had a great season. First there was the 1956 Olympics
in which he made the U. S. Gymnastics team by “the edge of
the braces on his teeth,” but wound up as the most improved
man on the team. In Melbourne, he placed among the top
•twenty athletes in the world in three events and was fourth
in his specialty—the optional par-'
allel bar routine. He’s touted as
“our best bet in the ’6O Olympics.”
! While finishing a great "jun-
S ior" year by leading the Lions
j lo an undefeated season and
I the Eastern gym title at Syra
cuse. N.Y. (March 8-9), he suc
cessfully defended his own par
allel bar and all-around crowns.
In the NCAA tourney two
weehs later (March 22-23), he
again led the Lions to another'
team title—the really big one—l
the National Collegiate, team tro
phy. And again he successfully
defended his parallel bar title
while winning the national col
legiate all-around honor for the
first time
Last weekend, he even top
ped all his previous sensational
Penn State records by winning
the AAU unlimited team title,
BY HIMSELF. His name is
Armando Vega. •
But then the whole story must
be told, we didn’t enter a team.
It seems as though the expendi
ture is above the athletic budget.
The winning team turned out to
be the Los Angeles Turners with
Jack Beckner as one of its mem
bers. Beckner edged the Lion
artist for the AAU" all-around

Eastern title. The Lions last
copped team honors in the 1947
tourney under Bob Rutherford,
Sr.
For the past five seasons, the
tournament has been run solely
on the basis of medal play, a
factor which has proven instru
mental in tightening the compe
tition. Match wins are now de
cided on total score after 36 holes. :
Penn State’s lone team triumph
came in a series of playoffs be
tween four districts.
Last year, the Penn State ag

title, 112.35 to 111.90.
You wonder how Armando
could have taken the team hon
ors against a group that in
cluded a man who beat him.
Well. Armando had 3 firsts in
the AAU's—parallels, long horse
vault and still rings, while Beck
ner picked up strong runner-up
points in the six-event compe
tition.
But this was really intended to
be a column on the champ and
not on the interesting statistics he
compiled during the season.
One of the reasons the champ
likes to compete in the Olympics
and the AAU’s is to see hi 3
friends. The Los Angeles native
gets to meet his West Coast
friends such as Beckner and his
Olympic pals, as Hungary’s At
tila Takach who finished third in
the AAU all-arounds. Armando
claimed he, Beckner and Takach
“had a ball” relating past exper
iences and ribbing one another
about their performances in the
weekend tournament.
