Gold-dusters Score 27; Team Wins All Events The Gold-dust Twins came through Saturday and the Lion gymnasts defeated Syracuse by the biggest margin of the season, 67 1 / 2 -28 1 i. It was the first home meet of a month long home stand for the Lions. The two—Jay Werner and Lee Cunningham—scored 27 points between them, only lei less than Syracuse. Werner made a wise prophet out of Coach Gene Wettstone by taking two firsts and a close sec ond on the parallel bars. He had two of his best rou tines as evidenced by his scores on the high bar (263) and the Parallel bars (259). And although he had his worst score of the year in his specialty—the flying rings —he took the event. His only second was a 255-254 loss to Captain Bob Foht on the p-bars. Lou Savadore took third to sweep the event, 13-3, for Wettstone's charges. Although not the smoothest routine on the p-bars. Werner displayed an excitingly difficult routine that he has never used before. Captain Bob Foht was one of the most amazed on lookers in the crowd. "I never expected to see that routine from Jay," commented Foht. "It looked like he just threw it together, move by move. And what a great job be did of it." Werner also hit on the high' bar for his best performance ini defeating the Orange's Walt Dodge; and leammate Cunningham. It was the second straight meet that; Cunningham had a minor brea' in the event and lost. As he was shooting over the bar in a L- 1 ,.
