PAGE SIX Tumbling, First preview of the EIGL Championships at Pitt The Eastern Intercollegiate Gymnastic League decides its team title on a dual meet basis (which the Lions have already won) and then decide their individual championships at a post-season meet—to be held at Pitt Friday and Saturday evening. That may save face for the oth el five teams in the East as the Lions are seriously expected to dominate all six regular events and are practically a shoo-in in the all-around—including the still rings, calisthenics and long horse vault. (Incidentally, Syracuse holds the EIGL record of indt- Hennon Makes UPI All-American Team Lions' DuMars Receives UPI Honorable Mention A great All-American basketball star bowed out Saturday night at the Pitt Field House while another player began the rise to All-American status.

These two have led the Lions' to an 11-8 record thus far this year. The Nittanies have one, game remaining against Buckneil at Lewisburg Saturday light. After the Pitt game last Sat urday people were busy com paring DuMars and Hennon during their sophomore years. Most people felt that the two were just about equal during their . first year of varsity ball. "Hermon was a better shot in his sophomore year but DuMars is a little better in the playmak ing, department right now," said Pitt coach Bob Timmons. "Du- Mars still will improve a lot like Don did," Timmins added. Doc Carlson. Pitt's coach a few years ago. said that the boys were about equal. but 3.

Probably more serious threats; than Seaward will be Syracuse's; Al Bird and Pitt's duo of Don; Hannon had to rate an edge because of his great shooting ability. "Don't get me wrong though. DuMars is terrific and probably will get a lot better," Carlson continued. Egli had different views on the whole matter. "I wouldn't have traded him for Hennon. Hermon was good but Mark is good too, and he has two big years left." Egli said that Hennon was a !little stronger as a shooter but ;he wasn't as good a ballhandler land couldn't play defense as well las DuMars. DuMars still has those two ' big years left and it will be interesting to watch his pro gress as compared to Hennon's.
