Captain Dick Engelbrink and sprinter Bobby Brown will
head a strong Penn State aggregation Friday and Saturday
in the IC4A championships at Villanova.
The Lions will be defending the title they won last year
when Ed Moran lcd them to a crushing victory over the
elite of Eastern track schools. * *
The teams which pose the big
gest threat to State this yew are
Villanova, Manhattan, Yale, and
Maryland. Yale and Villanova aie
picked by most of the experts to
fight it out for top honors with
Penn State and Maryland battling
for third place.
Manhattan, on the basis of a
53-78 loss to Penn State last
week, is rated below the Lions
and the Terps.
Engelbrink ranks as one of the
top contenders for mile honors
Although the blond distance spe
cialist has not reached the form
he displayed last year, his 4:12
mile on a slow track against
Quantico was one of the top ef
forts in the East this year Engel
brink will also double in the half
mile.
Bi own has improved so much
over last year that Lion Coach
Chick Werner nominated him as
the man to beat in both the 100
and 200. The junior from Phila
delphia won the IC4A 100 title
last year by nipping Villanova's
; Ed Collymore in 9.9. Collymore
came back to win the 220, with
,Brown placing third.
Brown said that he had some
difficulty with the 220 last year.
and often tired over the last
20 yards. But the Lion dash
man doesn't seem to be having
any trouble this year. In fact,
Pitt's star sprinter Mel Barn
well, who lost to Brown in the
220, remarked that "Brown is
much stronger than he was
last year."
Brown has won both the 100
and 220 twice this year in dual
meets. Against Quantico he nip
pe d ex-Southern Conference
Champ Walt Fillman in the 100
,and then ran a 21.9 to down
Collymore.
A week later he beat Pitt
sprinter Jim Donahue in the 100
and then shaded Barnwell in the
220. His time of 20.8 was well
below the Olympic qualifying
standard of 21.4.
His top competition in the
IC4A 100 may come from Villa
nova's Frank Budd. Budd beat
Brown for the 60-yard dash
title in the indoor IC4ks in
March.
High jumper Dick Campbell is
almost a sure point getter for

Werner and teammate John Fa
riera is not far behind. Fariera
cleared 6-5 against Manhattan
last week to cause a three-way
tie for first place. It was the
highest the Lion senior had ever
jumped.
Jim Schwab and Jon Musser
are also potential point getters
for Penn State. Although Schwab
has not approached his 223-11 1 / 2
effort that set a Penn State jave
lin record last year, he has been
consistently around 210. Musser
threw the javelin 160 against
Quantico, a personal high for him.
Kamis, Greenberg
Win IM Tennis
Phi Epsilon Pi's Al Mullis and
Gene Greenberg won the IM ten
nis finals for the second straight
year by downing Alpha Chi Rho's
Bill Stout and Ron Kinch yester
day, 6-4, 6-2.
With a strong wind at his back,
Kamis' hard services were too
!much for Stout and Kinch to han
die. Over a 2-set period, Kamis
didn't miss on his service.
