The Lions racked up eleven first place victories to West Virginia's four. Jim Norton, the Lion's speedy co-captain, ran a sizzling 48.4 quarter-mile to cop first place honors in this even t. Norton's time came within one tenth of a second of Bruce Austin's record set in 1956. Dick Hambright, sophomore quarter-miler, ran second to Norton with a time of 98.7. Hambright took first in the Navy meet with a 48.5-second quarter. Coach Chick Werner had hoped that Hambright and Norton would push each other and have been doing just that. One of the highlights of the meet was the superlative perform ance of sophomore sprinter Blaine O'Conner. O'Conner, who has never run the 100-yard dash in under 10.2 at Penn State turned in a speedy 9.9 to finish second to West Virginia's undefeated Ray Peterson. But O'Conner proved to be Pet erson's nemisis as he defeated him in the 220-yard dash. O'Conner, who was trailing by five yards until the final 30 yards of the race, turned on the steam to nip his opponent at the wire and turn in a time of 22.3 seconds.

The Nittany's Clem Schoenebeck placed third in the event to com plete the Lion slam. West Virginia's Dave Tork Steve Whittaker was one of the most phenomenal split personalities on •record. Not content with a mere 1 or 2 distinct personalities, Whit taker was split 3 ways. His analyst's greatest problem was in deciding which of the 3 Steve Whittakers should be permitted to survive. Steve Whittaker I was noisy, rude, and loutish. The only thing admirable about him was his Van Heusen walk ing shorts which he wore to each session. Steve Whittaker II talked to the analyst while covering him with a gun. During one session, as the doctor was staring past the muzzle of the revolver, he noticed that Steve was wearing a particularly attractive sport shirt. Further inquiry showed it to be a Van Heusen.

Which of the 3 Whittakers did the analyst let survive? The answer is: none of them. The wise doctor diagnosed that each of the 3 had only one redeeming feature—each wore one Van Heusen leisure wear garm4nt. So he created afourth Steve Whittaker. This last had the walking shorts of the first, : the shirt of the second, and the sweater of Whittaker the third. He was a paragon of style and common sense, and has been a useful citizen ever since.
