THURSDAY, JANUARY 14, 1960 Gymnast's Routines Are Difficult to Plan "Should I dismount with a giant straddle or should I use a reverse flyaway?" This is not a foreign language as one might suppose, but rather the thoughts of a gymnast when he is planning a routine for an up-corning meet. A routine is composed of three separate parts—(l) the approach and mount, (2) the man euvers, that take up most of the exercise, and, (3) the dismount. Each gymnastics event is dif ferent from the others and, thus there are many exercises which can be performed. According to Penn State coach Gene Wettstone, there are several basic keys to getting a high score on a piece of apparatus. The per former must have style, rhythm, form, poise, variety, difficulty and must successfully complete his exercise. The gymnast must also know his limitations and stress the maneuvers in which he looks best. Coach Wettstone said that sophomore sensation Greg Weiss' main strong pointlis the steadiness he shows on all events. So when Weiss is planning a routine, he picks maneuverVwhich emphasize poise, form and style. Because of this, he has great ability to com piee his entire exercise. Lee Cunningham has entirely different problems. Wettstone said he combines elegance with difficulty. On the side horse, he stresses style and difficulty along with variety. Also he usu ally completes his routines. Therefore, he will pick difficult maneuvers and one which can be executed with a lot of style. Jay Werner's main feature is his strength on the various events. However, on the flying rings, be sides displaying strength, he is also a spectacular performer. He chooses routines which stress these features. A typical Werner routine on the' flying rings would consist of a dislocate, where he flips over and dislocates his arms; a cut, where he lets go of the rings, brings his Phillies Take on' New Look NEW YORK (.LP) Finishing in the basement was new and pain ful to John Quinn , so the Phila delphia general manager decided to do something about his Phillies this year. Besides swinging four trades with other major league clubs, he has dug into the minors for 16 new players. The prizes among the rookies appear to be pitcher Chris Short, catcher Jim Cooker, infielder Pan cho Herrera and outfielders John ny Callison and Ken Walters. Callison, 20, a left-handed slug ger acquired from the Chicago White Sox for Gene Freese, has had some big league experience but not enough to exempt him from freshman status. He batted .299 in 79 games at Indianapolis last season. Short, 22, had a 12-9 record at Buffalo in only his third year in professional bail. Cooker may earn the first string catching job. Kerby Farrell, who managed the native of Holly Hill, S.C., at Buffalo, says he can do it. He jumped from a mid-season average .245 to a campaign -end ing .290. Herrera is no stranger to the Phillies. He's been up before but this time he may stick. Big and agile, he led the International League in four departments with 187 hits, 37 home runs, 128 runs batted in and a .327 average at Buffalo.

This is both spectatcular and extremely difficult for a per former to execute properly. The rope climber doesn't have' to build an exercise, but rather has to perfect his speed in scaling the 20 foot height. The big thing he must consider is the number of strokes it takes him to reach the top. For instance, Vince Neuhauser takes 10 strokes while last year's NCAA champion Don Litltewood took eight. Speed Of stroke is also considered. Fernandez and Ray Semproch to the Tigers, batted .291 at Fort Worth in 1959. His 20 homers and 92 RBI stamp him as a power and clutch hitter. New pitchers include right handers Ed Keegan (10-7) at Wil liamsport, Henry Mason (12-3) at Buffalo, Art Mahaffey (8-0) at Williamsport and (8-5) at Buffalo, and Dallas Green' (9-5) at Wil liamsport. Hirshberg Will Coach Carnegie Tech Eleven PITTSBURGH (EP) Edward J. Hirshberg, 51, assistant football coach at Carnegie Tech since 1949, moved up yesterday to head coach.

Villanova Tops Owls For 10th Straight Win PHILADELPHIA (fP) Villa nova University ran its unbeaten string to 10 games yesterday by defeating Temple University 81- 69. The Wildcats had to overcome a 29-point performance by the Owls' Bill Kennedy to preserve their win. The Wildcats couldn't gather much of a lead for the first seven minutes, as Kennedy scored half of Temple's first 18 points on long lump shots. John Driscoll, whO scored 19 points for Villanova, then took over and tapped in two straight goals to put the Wildcats ahead 18-14 with 11 minutes remaining in the half. Villanova ran its lead to 31-17 with six minutes left, and at in termission led 42-28. Compromise Reached On Grid Substitutions MIAMI BEACH College football rules makers loosened the substitution rule yesterday to permit a single player to enter the game at any time. - Liberalizing the so-called "wild card" rule, the new rule makes it possible for a coach to run in one player as often as he wishes whether or not the clock is stopped. Penn State coach Rip Engle, president of the Football Coaches Association, is attending the meet ing Under the 1959 "wild card" rule, a specialist could be sent into the game at any time that time was out. The player could not be sent in as a "wild card" substitution after he had used up his allowed two re-entries a quarter, however. The change, a mild compromise with forces seeking a return of the free substitution rule and two platoon football, is designed to simplify the job of checking subs and thus to speed up the game. The vote of the 13 eligible mem bers was unanimous, or nearly so, said Gen. Robert R. Neyland of Tennessee, NCAA Rules Com mittee chairman. $155,000 100.000 10,000 $265,000 The action was negative on two. other rules that had been dis cussed at length. It was voted to keep the goal posts where they have been, 10 yards behind the goal line, and to retain the one or two-point option on conversions that was instituted two years ago. $198,000 64,000 $262,000 The substitution rule in effect before yesterday's revision al lowed one "wild card," or play er, to enter a game if he had not been in twice before in that pe riod, and he only could enter if the clock was stopped. Aside from the "one-man pla toon" innovation, the remainder of the substitution rule was re tamed. That is, if two or more players are sent in simultaneous ly, they are each charged with an entry. Nothing was done about the te dious checkoff system of record ing substitutions. Roberts Signs for 1960 PHILADELPHIA (ill) Robin Roberts signed his 1960 contract with the Philadelphia Phillies yesterday and disclosed he took a "justifiable" pay cut. "It wasn't a tremendous slice," said the 33-year-old Roberts. "But it was justified." Roberts, who won 15 and lost 17 for the last place Phillies in 1959, said of his performance, "It was n't bad. I _didn't pitch as well as I should have." Penn State owns a 1-1-1 record in bowl play. The Nittany Lions lost to Southern California in the 1923 Rose Bowl, tied SMU in the '4B Cotton Bowl, and beat Alabama in the 1959 Liberty Bowl. DON'T GO TO SEED DURING FINAL EXAMS ...
