Lions Lack Experience,
Depth in Field Events
By JIM KARL
This is the last in u series on the Penn State track team,
trnlay the Field Events.
Penn State’s field men, lacking in depth and experience
but bolstered by sonu top-notch performers, may provide a
few surprises when the outdoor track season opens this
weekend at the Quartico Relays.
“Of all the field events the javelin looks like our strongest

and we are hoping to bring the’
others up to respectability,” Lion
mentor Chick Werner said. ‘'The
high jump also looks like a good
event, but the field events will
be the weakness of the track team
this year.”
Regardless of some sjore spots,
Werner has three valuable point
getters in high jumper Dick
Campbell and weightmen Jim
Schwab and Jon Musseij.
But the Lions will be hurting

Senior Bowl game in January,

Schwab and Musser give Wer
ner a strong one-two punch in
the javelin. Schwab, a junior from
Patton, Pa., earned fourth place
in the college championship jav
elin throw last year with a toss
that sailed 202’1V2". Then in the
IC4A championships he got off
a heave of 221-9 to take second
place behind Nick Kovalakides
of Maryland.
The high jump will feature Dick
Campbell, who tied for third place
in the IC4A indoor championships
this vear, with John Fariera and
Jerrv Wettstone backing him up.
Campbell, who got his style
down to a science by practicing
with Charlie Dumas out on the
West Coast a few years back, has
cleared 6-8 in practice this year.

Penn State's Jay Werner won
the all-around title at the Pasa

ships Saturday in a meet that
brought together the top competi
tors in the United States.
Werner, this year’s NCAA all
around champ, scored 560 points
to lead the star-studded field
which included three former Ol
ympians and 19 National champs.
Former Penn State great Ar
mando Vega took a fourth.
Second place went to Califor
nia’s Art Shurlock, who was run

Jack Beckner was third while
Trojan star Bob Lynn was fifth.
Beckner’s defeat was a surprise
to gymnastic followers. Twice a
member of ' the U.S. Olympic
team, he has won the National
AAU tourney the last four years
and the Pan-American Games in
1955 and 1959
The muscular Werner failed to
cop any individual titles, but
scored consistently enough in aH
six events to outdistance his com
petitors in the all-around.
He tied for second on the high
bar with a 96 and ad led scores
of 94.5 on the still rings, 93.5 on

With at least two and as many

best as possible so he could make

‘T just happened to hit each
event real well,” said Werner. “My
performance was definitely bet

Nationals.”
