Engineers Aim for 4th Victory
Against Lion Matmen Tonight
By JIM KARL
Penn State and Lehigh con
tinue one of the oldest mat
rivalries in the nation tonight
at Rec Hall and the Engineers
have a twofold purpose to
keep their three meet winning
streak going and to gain re
venge for last year's 19-11 loss.
A freshman meet is scheduled
for 5 p.m. followed by the varsity
clash at 7.
The varsity meet will be tele
cast over Eidophor.
The Lions will be attempting
a comeback after their 17-8 loss
to Michigan before the holidays.
State had previously whipped
Army, 24-10, and West Virginia,
39-4.
Both teams are ranked in the
top ten. Lehigh is sixth and State
is one notch lower at seventh.
Lion Coach Charlie Speidel did
not commit himself when asked
to compare the strength of the
two teams who meet for the 45th
time tonight. "They have us out
manned on paper," was his only
comment.
The Engineers have upheld
glowing pre-season reports by
easily defeating all opposition
so far.
They downed Cornell, 27-0, lowa
State, 22-8 and Syracuse, 25-6.
Coach Gerry Leeman has 17 of
19 wrestlers returning from last
year's squad which finished be-

iis only match of the season to

Gunst is undefeated in three
matches and has an 8-6 victory
over lowa State's Larry Hayes,
two-time national champ at 147.
One of the highlights of the
evening should be the 157-
pound battle between Lehigh's
Kirk Pendleton and Ron Pifer.
Pendleton, labeled by Leeman
"as good a wrestler as I've ever
coached," has won matches by
a decision and a default and
pinned Syracuse's Joe Matisak
in his last outing.
Turner, Lehigh's captain for the
second consecutive year, will go
for the Engineers at 167. Speidel
hasn't named a starter yet but
John Barone is the likely choice.
Jim Detrixhe and Phil Myer
will provide the fireworks at

bouts.

1961: YEAR OF DECISION
Weil sir, here we are in 1961, which shows every sign of being
quite a distinguished year. First. off, it is the only year since
1951 which begins and e►ids with the Figure 1. Of course, when
it comes to Figure l's, 1961, though distinguished, can hardly
compare .with 1911, which, most. people agree, had not just two,
but three Figure l's! This, I'll wager, is a record that. will stand
for at least two hundred years!
1911 was, incidentally, notable for many other thing. It
was, for example, the year in which the New York Giants played
the Philadelphia Athletics in the World Series. As we An know,
the New York Giants have since moved to San Francisco and
the Philadelphia Athletics to Kansas City. There is a movement
afoot at present to move Chicago to Phoenix— the city, not the
baseball team. Phoenix, in turn, would of course move to
Chicago. It is felt that the change would la broadening for
residents of both cities. Many Chicago folks, for example, have
never seen an iguana. Many Phoenix folks, on the other hand,
have never seen a frostbite.
There are, of course, certain difficulties attending a municipal
shift of this size. . For instance, to move Chicago you also have
to move Lake Michigan. This, in itself, presents no great prob
lem, what with modern scientific advances like electronics and
the French cuff. But if you will look at your map, you will fin(!
that Lake Michigan is connected to all the other Great Lakes,
which in turn are connected to the St. Lawrence Seaway, which
Figfico w,i2rel`6,7f7y
in turn is connected to the Atlantic Ocean. You start dragging
Lake Michigan to Phoenix and, willy-nilly, you'll be dragging
all that other stuff too. This would make our British allies
terribly cross, and I can't say as I blame them. I mean, put
yourself in their place. What if, for example, you were tt British
workingman who had been saving and scrimping all year for tt
stunmer holiday at Brighton Beach, and then when you got to
Brighton Beach there wasn't any ocean? There you'd be with your
inner tube and snorkci and nothing to do all day but dance the
Lambeth Walk, This, you may be sure, would not make you
NATO-minded!
I appeal most earnestly to the residents of Chicago. and
Phoenix to reconsider. I know it's no bowl of clwrries going
through life without ever seeing an iguana or alrostbite, but
ask you—Chicagoans, Phoenicians—is it too big a price to pay
for preserving the unity of the free world? I am sure that if
you search your hearts you will make the right decision, for
all of us—whether we live in frost bitten Chicago, iguana -ridden
Phoenix, or narrow-lapelled New I la Ven —fire first and foremost
Americans! •
But I digress. We were speaking of 19131, our new year. And
new it is! There is, for one thing, new pleasure in Marlboro
Cigarettes. How can there be new pleasure in Marlboros when
that fine, flavorful blend, that clean easy draw filter, have not
been altered? The answer is simple: each time you light a
Marlboro, it is like the first time. The flavor is such that ago
cannot wither nor custom stale. Marlboro never palls, never
jades, never dwindles into dull routine. Each pack, each
cigarette, each puff, makes you glad all over again that you arer
a Marlboro smoker!
So, Marlboros in hand, let us march confidently into pea.
May good fortune attend our ventures! May happiness reign!
May Chicago and Phoenivsoon recover froth their disappoint,
thent and join our bright cavalcade into a brave tomorrow!
The makers of Marlboro and of the new unfiltered king-size
Philip Morris Commander join Old Max in adding their good
wishes for a happy and peaceful 1961.
