performances in the field events

Navy, winner of two trian
gular meets so far this season,
has other designs.

one-stroke lead at the halfway
mark of the $40,000 Houston Golf

Two of Navy's shot putters.
Dick Brown and Jim Hart, also
compete in the discus, and
both have surpassed 150 feet in
this event.
Werner expects State's Jon
Musser to give Hart and Brown
a real battle in the discus.
Steve Curtice, the top javelin
thrower, is consistently around
210 feet. Three other Middies
throw over 180 feet.
Tom Shields won the 120 high
hurdles'against Pitt and George
town with a time of 14.4 and
teammate Torn Dumont was right
behind with a 14.9.
Shields won the 220 low hur
dles against Quantico and Mor
gan State in 22.4.
"Outside of the hurdles it looks
as though Penn State may dom
inate the running events,' Wer
ner said.
"But when I say dominate I
simply mean take first place.. In
this type of a meet the seconds
and thirds will probably , decide
the eventual winner."
Brown is State's top threat
in the sprints with George Metz
ger and Don Davies the main
point-getters in the 440.
Mike Miller, Howie Deardorff
and either Steve Moorhead or
Dave LaHoff will compete in the
half mile with Moorhead, Gerry
Norman and either Deardorff or
Herm Weber slated to ' run in
the mile.
