at 147 and 157 invol
caught Peery complet.
And, then, there wa
14-11 score. That was rl
decided underdog to 1, 1
1-4-2 record compared
the outcome was so ob
below the average.
We can still see Seidel flashing his wide grin after heavy
weight Ray Pottios clinched the match with a decision over Lenny
Vuocolo.
But this is another year—and almost another team. Three of
the men who posted key victories in last season's upset have
graduated—Johnny Johnston, Earl Poust and Pottios. Dan John
ston is the only winner back, but Guy Guccione, whose 2-2 draw
with highly-rated Vic DeFelice was called the "turning point"
by Speidel, is also returning._
However, one of the two aforementioned men may not wrestle
tomorrow. Reason—they have been competing for the same starting
position-137 pounds—most of the season.
There has been talk that Johnston will drop down to 130-pounds
in order to meet Pitt's talented unbeaten sophomore Larry Lauchle.
Gordie Danks, who has been handling the 130-pound spot the last
few weeks, is a hustling performer and much improved over last
year. But Lauchle is given the edge over him.
However, against Johnston it may be different. Johnston is
also unbeaten, posting four wins at 137 and one at 130. His 130.
pound win was early in the season against Lehigh's Ed Slater,. 5.0.
Lauchle also stopped Slater.
Besides 137, the other key bouts should be at 147, 157 and 167.
Tentative matching lists the Lions' Sam Minor against Bob Bubb
at 147, Nittany sophomore Neil Turner facing veteran Alex Skirpan
at 157 and State's impressive Hank Barone 'against former NCAA
167-pound champion Tom Alberts at 167.
These bouts could go either way although Skirpan is generally
favored over Turner.
However, it is here that either Speidel or Peery could pull some
of their famed "strategic" maneuvers. For example, Speidel could
switch Minor and Turner in their respective positions. Or maybe
Peery could do likewise with Skirpan and Alberts. This is the type
of masterminding which has always made State-Pitt meets exciting.
The Panthers are definitely favored at 123. That's where their
impregnable 123• pound national champ, Paul Powell, wrestles.
He'll face an improving Don Wilson—who may just be the man,
to wrecir - Powell's plans.

IC4A Hopes
By JOHN BLACK
Ed Mora n, Dick Englebrink,
Fred Kerr, and Bob Brown will
carry the bulk of the Blue and
White hopes into the IC4A indoor
track championships in Madison
Square Garden tomorrow.
These four individual entries
plus the one-mile and two-mile
relay teams are highly seeded
and are expected to come in
among the front runners.
The Lions' Ed Mot an, fastest
collegiate miler in the country,
ill abstain from the mile event
'and instead compete in the 1000-
;yard run where he has registered
;the fastest indoor time this year,
clipping off a 2:10 0 in the Army
meet.
Consistent distance runner
Fred Kerr will take Moran's
place in the mile. Kerr coasted
across in a tie with teammates
Moran and Engelbrink in a 4:16
mile at Army. "He looked so
easy doing it," said Coach Chick
Werner, "I think he could do a
4:12 or 4:10."
On the strength of his record
setting performance at Ohio
State in the two-mile, Dick En
gelbrink is Coach Werner's
choice in the longest distance
event. Although a couple run
ners from other schools have
registered lower times this
year. Werner terms Engelbrink
as "a pretty sharp prospect to
win ii."
The Lions' 6.2 sprinter Bob
Brown will be up against his
toughest competition since Ira
Murchinson when he runs in the
60-yard dash tumorrow. Pitt's
spectacular Mel Barnewell, Ed
ICollymore of Villanova, Steve
Snyder of Yale, Fred Lakeway of
Rhode Island, and Bud Spiegel of
Maryland are included in the
fleet field.
Moran will anchor the two
mile relay team, following mates
Charlie King, George Jones, and
Bill Schwab.
Dick Hambright, Jim O'Con
nor. Bob Szyller, and Don Da
vies will comprise the one-mile
relay foursome.
Other possible point scorers for
the Nittanies are John Fareira in
the high jump and hurdles and
Dick Gross, Ron Beard, or Dale
Peters in the pole vault.

Since Rex Peery took over the wrestling fortunes at
Pittsburgh in 1950, the Panthers have established themselves
as one of the top mat powers in the nation.

Despite the loss
to Lehigh, there
is still a lot of

lineup and two POWELL
others who have lost only once.'
All told, the Panthers have won
48 individual matches this season,
while losing 19 and tying four.
Four of Peery's five standouts
are veterans and the other is a
highly-regarded rookie. Heading
the list of lettermen are two
NCAA champions—Paul Powell'
and Tom Alberts. Powell won the
123-pound crown as a sophomore
last year and Alberts grabbed the
167-pound title as a soph two
years ago. Alberts failed to defend
his championship last season be
cause of an injury.
Powell is 9-0 for the season
and has an overall two-year
career mark of 24-0-1. Alberts
owns a 5-1-3 slate for the sea
