PAGE SIX Cold Sidelines DuMars; May Miss Weekend Trip Mark DuMars can't seem to catch a break this year. Penn State's leading scorer wound up in the University Hospital yesterday with a high fever and his status for this weekend's road trip to Colgate and Syracuse is "indefinite." DuMars, who scored 21 points in Tuesday's 80-78 loss to West Virginia, appeared to be fully recovered from an ankle in jury suffered against Bucknell, Feb, 7 "We'll check tomorrow and find out how he is," Lion coach John Egli said last night. "If he has a fever, I don't see how we can take him." The Lions plan to leave for Colgate tonight. DuMars, who has scored 1071 points during his three-year career, has scored 266 this year in 17 games for a 15.5 average. The bad news about DuMars, coupled with Tuesday's heart breaking defeat in Morgantown, hit the Lions hard. "We played without him most of the time against Pitt and did OK," Egli said, "so we're ,not that bad off, Even so, I sure hope he can play." PuMars had a great night against West Virginia, hitting on 9 of 19 shots and converting three fouls.

PENNSYLVANIA High Jumper Shows Fast 'improvement Judging by his perform ance at Navy Saturday, Jerry Wettstone is fast folloNVing in the footsteps of teammate Dick Campbell. Last year Campbell set a new Penn State record in the high jump by clearing 6-8 against Navy during the outdoor season. Before the 1960 campaign Campbell had been only a medi ocre jumper, but a few pointers he picked up from track star Charlie Dumas plus plenty of hard work boosted him into the 6-6 class. Now Wettstone, the son of gym nastics coach Gene Wettstone, is picking up those same pointers from Campbell and Coach Chick Werner. As a result the Lion junior is fast developing into a good jumper. His 6-4 1 / 2 against Navy gave him a tie for first with Campbell and established the Lion duo as one of the top high-jump com binations in the East. The secret to Wettstone's rap id development is the straight leg kick. Dumas, a former Olym pian, perfected this move and now it is used by all the top jumpers. "I used to use the old move of bending my leg as I went over the bar," Wettstone said. "But now I keep my leg straight when I kick and it's helped me a lot." • Boston University's John Thom as is the favorite to capture the IC4A high jump title March 4, but both Wettstone and Campbell should be strong favorites to place. Wettstone said his main prob lem now is to improve his style. He doesn't know what his maxi mum height is, but he thinks he can hit 6-6 by the outdoor season. ~..............„„ta 6. 1 ;" "ev ~,, s:',.

The ratings were published be fore the Lions' loss to Navy at Annapolis Saturday. The Middies were not listed among the top 25 teams. Other teams in the top 10 were (I) Oklahoma State; (2) Lehigh; (3) Michigan; .(4) Oklahoma; (5) Iowa; (6) lowa State; (8) Army; (9) Pittsburgh; and (10) Michigan State. Pitt, with losses to Michigan and Army, dropped five notches from its previous spot as the 4th best team in hfe na• lion while Lehigh (8-0) ad- Yanced four places from sixth. Penn State would probably be missing from the top 10 if the rat ings had been compiled after Sat urday's loss.

FEBRUARY , I6. 1961 ficials Association classified State as a solid team. "Penn State took a drubbing from Lehigh but they have a solid team that should hold its own the rest of the way," the magazine said. Rutgers, another undefeated entry in the East, was listed as a top contender to break into the first 10, but the competition the Scarlet have faced to date hasn't been of high calibre. Rutgers and State will clash in Rec Hall March 4. On Feb. 25 the Lions will be at home against arch-rival Pitt. Sy racuse will provide the opposition in a road date Saturday. Although the Lions are having an off-season after last year's 9-0-1 record, things could be much worse. Except for three pins in the last four bouts..against Maryland, State would be 3-4.
