THUSDAY, MARCH 1 Moco With By BRUCE HEN Delta Tau Delta, ith three wins against one d -feat, and Theta Chi with tvo wins, dominated the i , tramural wrestling scene last night, but as far as the screaming fans were concerned, the evening belonged to the heavyweights. Favorite with the 200 fans was the 13-3 decision turned in by Sigma Phi Epsilon's Andy Mo conyi over Don Guida of Alpha Phi Delta. Moconyi, outweighed by a good 50 pounds, controlled the match, but found his bulking opponent a little too much to han dle for a pin. His 13 points were accumu lated through a series of take downs, reversals and near falls. In the second period he rolled out of a body press predicament and held his foe in a reverse half nelson and crotch for a full minute before time ran out to score one of two three-point near falls. Guida picked up his three points on a reversal in the second period and his predicament, but he was no match for the overpow ering Moconyi. The fans screamed just as hard for the bout between Frank Kor bini of Kappa Delta Rho and Bill Harding of Alpha Zeta, which al so went the limit with Korbini winning out, 6-2. Kori)ini's speed and power Hroved too much for a game arding who managed to stay with him all the way, keeping out of any pinning combina tions. It was a wild match, roaming all over the mat in a roughhouse style that delighted the onlook ers. Korbini was stalled twice by leg cramps but came bacß strong each time to overpower his op ponent. He picked up his six points on two takedowns and a quick re versal at the start of the third period. Harding gained his mark ers with two neutrals. In the third outstanding top- weight bout of the evening, Bud Kolhaas of Delta Tau Delta flat tened Ilarry Sloat of Alpha Tau ' Omega with a reverse half nel son and body press for a pin at 2:45. Kolhaas controlled the match all the way and led 7-0 when he showed his foe the lights. After gaining two points on a takedown midway through the first period, he scored a three point near-fall as the whistle blew to end the round. He opened the second with a quick reversal and proceded to set his opponent up for the kill. In independent action, Pierre Hill turned in the tastes fall of the evening as he wrapped up John Witmer in 57 seconds with a half nelson and crotch.

Hidinger, a senior in civil en gineering from Scranton, ad mils that the most outstanding reason for his poor record last year was not being in the top three. (Mullen, Neuhauser and Littiewood topped him.) But Jack has worked extra hard this season and "with these guys pulling" him, he's been able to break the four•second barrier. The trio has swept the top spots in five of the six meets this year and was a major contribution to the Lions undefeated season.

The present fourth and fifth men are Bill Fosnocht, a junior in forestry from Shillingion, and Bill Mumau, a sophomore in metallurgy from New Alex andria. Both were discovered in gym classes, and Neuhauser tabs Mumau as a possible un der-four climber. "He's got raggedy muscles," commented Neuhauser, "and as soon as he develops them well he'll be up in the fast bracket." Cold Weather Hurts Lions Baseballers Prepare For April Opener It was a weird sight to say the least! Infielders taking practice on a tennis court, pitchers warming up in a. heated "field house" and outfielders shagging flys in the snow. But this was the sight as Penn State's baseball team con tinued "spring training" in preparation for the opener with Gettysburg April 8. If you're wondering about the heated "Field House" it's under the stands at Beaver Field. The heat comes from a fire in a gar bage pail, but it keeps the pitch ers warm "We have the same weather problem every year," said base ball coach Joe Bedenk. "We usually have to wait for the field to thaw out before we be gin playing on it." So Bedenk improvises and puts whatever facilities available to good use. He's been doing it now for 30 years and it doesn't seem to hurt, once the season gets under way. For Bedenk is one of the win ningest college bzze.ball coaches with a record of 335 wins and 136 losses. Last year his Lions were 14-5. But right now things don't look too bright for the affable Lion mentor. Graduation and bonuses have left him with just four lettermen. There are plenty of talented freshmen and transfers around. but they are still unproven and inexnerieneed. "We'll have to build the team around the lettermen." he said. He was referring to sec ond baseman Larry Fegley. shortstop Bob Hoover, pitcher Ron Riese and outfielder Doug Caldwell. These four all turned in good performances last year and will have to carry the load this year Caldwell, who platooned with Joe Moore in centerfield, hit .333 to lead the Lion hitters last sea son but was up only 33 times. Fegley and Hoover were two of the most consistent perform ers throughout the season. Fegley hit .324 and Hoover .320. Riese also had a good year. The little righthander won six and lost one and finished with a 1.53 earned run average. Bedenk is hoping for pitching help from newcomers Ed Kilda and Bob Amer and holdover Lar ry Freedman, There are a lot of %..
