But Cowen, who to add the scoring day afternon, injure practice two days be (Strategy called foij on the injury so a! the Lions’ weakness.) Now it appearsf that Cowen may miss more than the Army meet. His injury ha? been diag nosed as pulled ligaments and a possible torn cartilege. He will miss this week's Navy en counter and possibly the one with Syracuse. If he definitely has a torn cartilege he will be out for the season. Wettstone has his three all around performers, any of whom could fill in for Cowen. But the real problem comes in not who to use, but where can he afford to weaken his team by tumbling Lee Cunningham; Jay Werner or Armando Vega. Wettstone will have to decide this week because he faces his toughest remaining foe Navy. A. n d a 1 though Navy has no tumblers of the calibre of the above mentioned five, they do have consistent mat men who could upset the Lions in this But above the gloomy tumbling picture stands the brilliant per- formance of the rope climbers— Vince Neuhauser, Don Littlewood and Jack Hidinger. All three broke the 4-second barrier Sat urday and Wettstone finally ad mitted that they are the fastest trio he has ever coached. Littlewood pulled a 3.7, which is an excellent time for any climber. But Neuhauser sur prised everyone (including me) by climbing in 3.5 and lower ing his career mark by three tenths of a second. And Hidin ger also lowered his top speed by three-tenths with a 3.9 clocking. Handy Lou Savadove, who is probably the best fourth gymnast in the nation, also came through in the clutch Saturday.

"There are many other things involved," McCoy said, "Who is responsible for the boys who come in here and get hurt? Who pays the transportation costs for getting these people here? I think we’ve got a swell thing going and I think the students should have the privilege of seeing the game for free. We couldn't let them in free if we were going to do this."
