Weiss' 3 Firsts Help G-Men
Stop Cadet's Win Streak at 17
By JOHN MORRIS
Penn State's gymnasts,
fired-up after a loss to Navy
a week ago, took out their re
venge 'on a previously unde
feated Army team, 52 1/3 -
43 2/3, in Rec Hall Saturday.
Lion junior Greg Weiss took
three firsts as the Lions won five
events and tied for first in the
rope climb. State's victory snapped
Army's 17-meet win skein.
The outstanding performances
of Weiss, Tommy Seward, Gerry
Schaefer and Bob Mumau were
enough to overcome the superior
depth of the defending Eastern
clu,mpions.
By winning, the Lions
bounced back into contention
for eastern honors with a 3.1
record. Army (4-1) and Navy
(4-0) clash in two weeks
and in Army win would cre
ate the possibility of a three
way tie for the Eastern crown.
"That was a great team out
there today," Army coach Tom
Maloney said after the meet. "The
way they were hitting today I
don't see how anyone could heat
them."
Seward started the Lions off
with a victory in tumbling, but
the Cadets took the next three
places to give Army a 9-7 lead.
Seward scored a 254 to chalk
up an easy win over Army's
Bill Chandler (229), Tom Grif
fith (206) and Bob Dickinson
(200).
then Weiss took over the scor
ing chores for the Nittanies.
The grim -faced junior, clicking
like a precision watch, won the
side horse with a 270, his lowest
score of the day,
Army again managed• to take
the next three positions as Ralph
Garens, Ken Wallace and Doug
Johnson pushed the Cadets to an
18-14 advantage.
Weiss completed a near-flaw
less routine with a double-flip dis
mount to score a 275 for first place
on the horizontal bar. Seward tal
lied 258 to edge Army's Merle
Williams (250) and Phil Costain
(244).
The 1-2 finish by the Lion
stars gave Gene Wettsione's
team a short-lived 25.23 margin
going into the rope cliMb.
Army had three rope climbers
with times equal to or better than
those of Bob Mumau State's
best so the crowd sat back to
watch an expected Cadet sweep.
But the slim Mumau had them
teetering on the edge of their
seats when he rushed up the rope
in'3.6 to tie Dave, Hastings and
John Kammerdiener for first
place.

DuMars would be among the
leaders. .
Ile has that extra sense—call it
what you like—that enables him
to spot a person breaking into
the clear and hit him with a pass
despite numerous defenders flail
ing at his arms and wrists.
His favorite play seems to be
a perfectly-timed soft lob pass
which Harris grabs in mid-air
and then stuffs through for a
Iwo-pointer.
Despite his sensational play this
year and during the past two sea
sons, Mark DuMars has gone rela
tively unnoticed nationally.
True, he ruined a few golden
opportunities with some bad
nights the past two years in Phila
delphia and the Baltimore-Wash
ington area but anyone in at
tendance could see he has the
necessary moves and talent to be
an outstanding ballplayer.
The All-American listings are
being compiled now and it.
would be a big surprise if Du-
Mars is named. He probably
won't because he just doesn't
have a big enough press behind
him.
Wihout the press and national
publicity it's hard to get any
where when you play for a medi
ocre team.
It will be..a shame if Mark Du-
Mars doesn't make All American.
He's one of the few really great
basketball players goons ex

Two more victories last week
stretching its unbeaten streak to
23 games over two seasons, kept
Ohio State solidly entrenched to
day as the No. 1 team in college
basketball:
Led by Jerry Lucas, the Buck
eys won over Indiana 100-65 and
Michigan State 83-68.
St. Bonaventure, which trounced
Tennessee State 104-87 for its 'lBth
triumph in 19 starts, was almost—
but liot quite-'-as popular a pick
for the runner-up position.
The
only
standings under
went only mild reshuffling and
saw only one newcomer to the

West Virginia, which beat NYU

Richmond 93-88, moved into the
No. 10 spot replacing Louisville.
