Lion Gymnasts Hope to Start
On Comeback Trail Saturday
By JOHN MORRIS
A deleat usually aoesn’t do
much good, but coach Gene
Wettstone hopes that his Penn
State gymnasts are an excep
tional case.
Wettstone watched Navy rout
his previously unbeaten G-men,
58%-37%, Saturday to boost the
Middies into the favorite’s role
for the EIGL crown.
But now the veteran coach is
hoping that ihi» year's team
can rebound like last season's
squad/ which came back to win
the NCAA championship after
an early season dual meet loss.
Army upset the Lions, 54 ! /2-
41 y 2 at West Point early last year
and went on to win the Eastern
crown, but the Nittanies came on
strong to cop national honors.

tremendous opportunities for Electrical Engineers,

“This year's team is different
from last year's team," Wettstone
said. “Last year we had three
guys who could lead and inspire
the team."
The three Weiss and the
“Golddust Twins," Jay Werner
and Lee Cunningham carried
the bulk of the scoring for the
Lions.
With Werner and Cunningham
gone, the Nittanies lack the all
around strength which made
them so tough in previous years.
"This is basically a young
team." Wettstone said. "With
the exception of the rope climb
ers we have mostly sophomores
and a few juniors."
One of those juniors ringman

scorer for State.

Ohio State Has Little Trouble
'Getting Up for Key Games
By FRITZ HOWELL
Associated Press Sports Writer
COLUMBUS, Ohio (/P) Coach
Fred Taylor needs no needle, emo
tional or otherwise, in pregame
buildups to keep his brilliant
Buckeye basketeers on the vic
tory trial.
The Ohio State mentor, sur
veying the team’s 21-game win
ning streak, the unblemished 16
conquests this year, the 1960 na
tional championship and current
unanimous No. 1 ranking, said - .
“Frankly, I like it up here. So
do the boys.
“When you are on top, you're
everybody’s target. Every team
we play is sky high. We have to
be just as hight—but we do it
naturally, by just accepting the
challenge.
“Winning is nothing new to our
five starters. All were all-Ohio
high school players. There’s no
friction anywhere.
“In addition to their ability,

our boys have intense pride in
their record. They know that one
slip can shove them off the top.
With that knowledge as an in
centive, they need no pep talks.”
Jerry Lucas, the all-America
junior and Olympic star, is Ohio
State’s marked man. As a rule
five defenders collapse on him
every time he’s within range of
the basket which opens path
ways for some of his friends.
So big Jerry, despite his 25-pius
scoring average, spends much of
his time passing off or grabbing
rebounds. That’s the type of team
play which has paid off. In most
of the contests each of the five
starters has scored in double fig
ures—and any of them can break
a game open at any time.
