Cunningham's Return Removes
Doubts on Panther Gym Meet .
Never was a gymnastic practice
as aisthetic as last night's. First
there were free movies (of the
Finnish gym exhibition, including
the girls), then there were dance
like routines in calisthenics and
the soothing strains of two Roger
Williams' LP's--"Till" and "Al
most Paradise."
And the little grey cloud of
worry was Qowhere in sight.
The most outstanding reason
for the optimistic change was
the return of Lee Cunningham
to full workouts. Cunningham
was even hitting his high scis
sors on the horse to perfection.

moves he incorporates in his
riding routine.

Wettstone. who will be in Har
risburg Saturday running the
Finnish Gym Exhibition, he is
considering seven applicants.
They are (and not necessarily
in any order) Collegian associate
sports editor Matt Mathews,
sports publicist Jim Tarman, bus
iness manager Ed Czekaj, wres
tling coach Charlie Speidel (who
went to college on a gym scholar
ship), football coach Earl Bruce,
former side horse ace Jack Bies
terfeldt, and assistant gym coach
Ed Williams. The competition is
keen.
Even Pitt's sports publicist
Beano Cook, takes a more pessi
mistic look than usual at the
meet. In his release to the Col
legian, Cook predicts the out
come of the meet as 73-23. But
the Panthers still loom as threats
in tumbling and the flying rings.
And they have been able to score
well this year.
LaX Managers Called
