Lions Meet Colgate;
Donato Injures Bock
Lion coach John Egli is fast becoming a
_firm believer
in the advertisement that claimS "When It Rains, It Pours."
And who can blame the veteran State coach. He has just lost
his sixth player this season because of either injuries or aca
demic ineligibility.
The lastest victim in the seemingly endless chain reaction
is starting guard Bobby Donato. The junior field general dis
located his hack during the overtime win at Bucknell Tuesday
and will not he able to start to- * * *
night when the Lions meet Col
gate at Hamilton, N.Y
The game against the Red
Raiders, coupled with a clash at
Syracuse tomorrow evening could
spell the difference between a
good ur "just fair" season for the
Nittany cagers. State is 7-2 and
is shooting to take a 0-2 mark in
to Wednesday's clash against
ninlh ranked West Virginia.
"THESE ARE two big games
and they are going to be tough
ones," Egli said last night as he
watched the Lions run through a
light workout before hoarding a
bus for the trip to Colgate. "1
wouldn't bet on either of them.
We have so many injuries, we're
lucky to even be able to have a
team on the floor."
Earlier this season senior co
captain John Mitchell severely
injured his knee and except for
token appearances, hasn't been of
any help to the club. The lead
ing returning scorer from last
Year isn't even making the trip;
but is expected to be ready for
the battle with the M6untaineers.
Center Terry Hoover is also
injured and is still wearing a
partial cast on his finger. He will
make the trip though, and Egli
expects the 6-7 sophomore to be
ready for West Virginia.
State lost three other players
through academic failures.
Egli will start four sophomores
and a senior against Colgate, a
team the Lions beat last month
at Hee, Hall, 62-40. Sophomore
John Ludwig, who has scored
just nine points this season, will
teplace Donato. Egli indicated;
however, that Donato may be
pressed into action if his back
responds to whirlpool treatments.

'Taming' Gymnasts' Side Hor - se
Harder Than Riding Stallion
(Today begins the first in a
series of five. articles covering
the fundamentals of gymnastics
competition on a number. of
gym apparatus. Tomorrofo: The
long horse.)
Hard-nosed western cow
hands who travel the rodeo
circuit taming wild broncos
might find riding the side
horse - in,front of 5,000 tense
and quiet gymnastics followers
the most ffightcning experience
of their lives.
Of all the apparatus employed
in modern - day gymnastics,, in
cluding the still rinks, horizontal
bar, long horse and parallel bars,
probably the side horse appears
to be the easiest to master.
However the side horse rates
as one of the most difficult to
master. In fact, alniost all scores
awarded on this piece of appa
ratus are lower than those of oth
er events.
The side horse itself consists
of the body (a padded, cow
hide covered cylinder-like affair
slightly longer than three feet),
four legs and two pommells, com
monly called the hand grips. The
top of the side horse .sits almost
four, feet off the floor.
Points for a side horse routine
are awarded as follows: 30 for
difficulty, 20 for combination and
50 for execution. The three add
up to a possible score of 100.
Obviously, the two essential
parts in a side horse routine are
getting on and getting off the
apparatus. These are called the
mount and dismount,- and when
they're• of special value and per
formed with elegance, the move
ments add maximum effect to a

over-all opinion.
To be an artistic gymnast, a
performer must show that he - is
the master of his body and its
movements and that he can com
plete his exercise with grace, ease
and sureness. The most common
faults on the side horse include
consistent "brushing": against the
apparatus, unnecessary repetition
and performing 'parts too easy in
relation to the standard of diffi
culty.
