This will be redemption weekend for Penn State's still
unproven wrestling team.

Ithaca, N.Y. and a victory over

Ever since the calsstrophic
Lehigh affair (we'll refer fo if
as an affair although we can
think of a more descriptive but
unprintable noun). Lion fans
have been crticizing the grap
plers. And with good reason.
Penn Slate's performance a
gainst the Engineers that Satur
day night was one of the worst
exhibitions of wrestling ever
seen at Hec Hall.
Coach Charley Speidel’s men
not only appeared out of shape,
but with one or "two exceptions
they seemed to lack the desire
and hustle that has marked pre
vious Lion wrestling machines.
And the 6000 mourners who wit-
Inessed the meet still haven’t re

(Navy; 17-8 hasn’t helped sooth
'matters. Not many fans saw the
(Army meet because it occurred
[during the semester break, and
! the Navy tilt was held at An
napolis.
So, most of the wrestling crowd
is awaiting the results of the Cor
nell meet before re-giving the
Lions a vote of confidence. A win
over the Big Red would defi
nitely bring the fans scampering
back to Rec Hall for the home
final against Maryland next Satur
day. And even a close loss would
probably do it. But another defeat

eluded here) will turn out for
Maryland.
We are not going to predict
the outcome of the Cornell
match—and there is a good
reason here, too. Everytime we
use our crystal ball, Penn State
seems to end up on the short
end of the score. (We still
haven't recovered from the
Army football game.) But we
do feel that the Lions have a
chance to beat the Big Red
Saturday.
Speidel’s men have improved
greatly since that Lehigh disas
ter. (Of course, they couldn’t have
gotten much worse). They gave
a mediocre performance against
Aimy and looked very “respect
able” against the Middies.
With just a little more effort
against Cornell, the underclass
men-dominated team could reach
its known potential.
What about the individuals?
Well, in our opinion, the most
impressive wrestler has been jun
ior Danny Johnston. He’s unbeat
en in four outings and is beating
his foes rather handily.
Bui his menial altitude to
wards wrestling has also stood
out. He seems to fit into the
same mold as Penn State's great
130-pound national champion
Johnny Johnston, who grad
uated last year. Same desire.
Same hustle. Same will-10-win.
And same attitude towards his
teammates. It's interesting to
note that both Johnstons were
products of the same high
school wrestling system—Clear
