Lion Gymnasts Open
Campaign Saturday
Springfield College, one of the East's top gymnastic
teams, will be Penn State's opponent Saturday when the
Lions open their dual-meet campaign.
Springfield is a new dual-meet opponent for the Lions,
but coach Gene Wettstone calls them "a favorable addition
to our schedule because they al
ways have good teams."
Saturday's meet at Springfield
will be the second test of the
season for the Maroons. Before
Christmas they lost to powerful
Navy, the team Wettstone pre
dicts will be State's toughest
opponent.
The Lions will meet Navy at
Annapolis Feb. 4, and then tackle
Army at home on
Feb. 11.

Two promising

Seward, will lead Wettstone's
forces.
Jeff Cardinelli, fifth in the
Nationals last year, is Spring
field's strong man.
Weiss will concentrate his dual
meet efforts on his three strongest
events—the parallel bars, hori
zontal bar, and side horse.

form in tumbling and on the
horizontal and
. parallel bars.
Jerry Schaeffer and Larry Yohn
will give the Lions a strong one
two punch on the flying rings,
and Kenny Morrow will probably
fill the third position on both the
rings and parallel bars.
In tumbling, a much-improved
Dick Criley will back up Seward.
Behind Weiss on the side
horse, usually State's weakest
event, will be two untested
sophomores. Gene Hralacher
and George Sayre.
Graduation took two strong
men from the rope climbers, Vince
Neuhauser and Bob Fosnocht, but
Bob Mumau, who finished fourth
in the Nationals last year, is back.
Charlie Hilbish and either George
Williams, Bruce Fosnocht or Lee
Saylor will join him.
Under EIGL rules, each team
may place only three men in each
of the six events in dual meets,
and no performer can work in
more than three events.
