11 minutes remaining.

with another bucket and two
fouls seconds after, and the
Lions went out in front to stay.
But Carnegie Tech fought back

Werner, Cunningham, Weiss
To Lead Penn State G-Men
By DICK GOLDBERG
All coaches suffer with per
;ennial "sleepless nights" or
"pre-season jitters." However,
Penn State gymnastics coach
Gene Wettstone should not
have too many with seven
lettermen returning among
which are numbered three of
the top G-Men in the nation—
co-captains Jay Werner and
Lee Cunningham, and sopho
more Greg Weiss.
Werner and Cunningham, both
seniors, have had considerable
dual meet experience, competing
for the Lions since their sopho
more year. In their first year of
competition, the "Gold Dust
Twins" finished first and second
lin the Eastern Intercollegiate
; gymnastics meet, with Werner
,beating Cunningham by one
,point.
Weiss, although inexperienced
in college dual meets, comes to
Wettstone with about as good a
set of credentials that a fledgling
gymnast can achieve. He attend
ed Englewood, N.J., high school
,where he made somewhat of a'
'sensation. As a freshman at State,
(Weiss led an otherwise uninspir
jng Lion Cub team, winning firsts
,in his specialties the side horse
!and parallel bars in every meet.
He capped off his fledgling
year performances by becoming
one of Uncle Sam's leading en
trants in the Pan-American
games. winning the side horse
and finishing fourth in the all
around.
While Weiss was winning his
gold medals last year, Werner
and Cunningham took second and
third, respectively, in the EIGA
championships. The "Twins" each
dropped down a position due to
