out with a big sigh: “Well

just finished watching Alabama’s

"Outside of Syracuse this is
the soundest team we've seen
all year. They wait for the
breaks and play what we call
field position football," Paterno
said.
"What I mean is this: They
play a tight defensive game and

temloiy. if they succeed they
get posse*sion of the ball that

"Then they try to move into
the foul down area. That’s the

fiont thcie they can utilize all
foul plays to get a first down.
"If they don't get the fust
down ynui back is still up against
the goal,” said Paterno.
Their strategy must have

New Weight Class
Forces Mat Changes
By JOHNNY BLACK
(Second of a series. Today’s story covers the heavyweights
from 15 7 to Hwt.)
Many changes will be evident this winter in the heavier
classifications on the Penn State wrestling team, which are
not as deeply manned as are the lighter weights.
First of all, a new weight class 191 has been added
by the ECAC. This will force Coach Charlie Speidel to split
up his heavyweight category ★ ★ ★
which is already the most under
manned weight class in the line- '
up. ■ i
With Johnston Oberly and Bob
Gilmour, the only two heavy
weights with varsity experience,
both above the 191-pound limit,
Speidel is faced with the problem
of developing a “green” grappler
for the new class, which is ex
pected to be a haven for out-of
season football players, keeping
in shape.
Juniors Clem Newbold and
John Trojan are working out at
191 and Speidel loks for some
gridders to report after the Lib
j erly Bowl game.
Another change will come at
167, where last year's captain,
George Gray, has graduated.
Sophomore Ron Piefer, a former
2-time high school state cham
pion, moves up to the varsity af
ter an undefeated freshman sea
son, and holds the inside track on
the starling job.
Bill Polaeek, also up from the
freshmen, and junior Bill Russ
provide the chief competition for
Pifer.
At 157 junior letterman Jerry
Seckler is backed up by Bob Far
is, also a junior, and Paul Stegner,
a soDhomore.
A former prep school star,
Seckler was undefeated as a
freshman and won the Eastern
frosh crown at 157. Last year he
posted a 1-1 varsity slate.
Home-grown Hank Barone, a
State College senior, compiled an

impressive 5-2-1 dual meet record
last year and returns to lay claim
to the 177-pound berth.
Barone notched wins in three
weight classes last year—ls 7, 167
and 177—-and one of his losses was
to Pitt’s former NCAA champ
Tom Alberts.
Sophomore Phil Myers, who
grappled for the Lion Cubs last
winter, and junior Joe Haines,
who has wrestled a couple var
sity matches, add depth to the
lineup.
Oberly. a highly-fouled soph
omore last year, missed a couple
of meets because of an injured
knee and had a 2-3-1 record in
dual meets. But the quick-mov
ing 250-pounder reached the
semifinals of the NCAA tourna
ment before losing to Ted Ellis
of Oklahoma State.
The other heavy-weight Bob
Gilmour, a tackle on the Nittany
grid eleven, won one and lost one
in varsity competition last year,
but won’t join the squad till after
the bowl game.
