FRIDAY, JANUARY 25, 1963 T hinclads By cD CARPENTER Track coach John Lucas pon dered the question a minute and then answered: “One needs the strength of a Rip Engle interior lineman, the agility of a Gene Wettstone gymnast and the interest to stick with something difficult for at least two years.” This may sound like a peculiar combination, but it is how the Lion coach describes an ideal hammer thrower. In fact Lucas is now searching the Penn Slate campus for an athlete with just such assets. The reason is the possibly this year, but certainly by next, the Lions will be competing in the event. It will mark the first time since World War II that the ham mer throw will be included in the State track and field program. IN PREPARATION for the 16- pound hammer throw, and be cause it is an event on the IC4A program, Lucas is now having all those interested throw the 35- HEWMAH CLUB'S AWS APPLICATIONS for Winter Forum Series Arm*-a nuns ror "Religion 4 Psychiatry'' PENN STATB WOMAN EDITOR Father George Hagmaier ARE available at the hub desk.

Preparing for Hammer Throw Competition pound weight. The major differ ence in the two is that the 16- pound ball is suspended on a metal chain. At the end of the chain there is a triangle directly attached to it. In addition the hammer throw is an outdoor event, while the 36-pound event is held indoors. Both these events, are far from' newcomers to the field scene. Through carvings found on cave walls, one can see that men started throwing weights during pre-civilization. During the Mid dle Ages the’ Celts created a sledge, which was a piece of rec tangular metal with a handle around it, and threw it during athletic festivals. At this time the Scotch took up weight throwing and it quickly became part of the famous Scotish Highland Games. It has remained a part of the games up until today. THESE EVENTS came to the U.S. during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries with the Irish migration.

According to Coach Lucas the only hope for the hammer throw in Pennsylvania appears to be in the Pittsburgh area where some high schools have scheduled the 12-pound hammer iiv dual meets. In fact Lucas expressed a desire to see the 12-pound hammer be come an exhibition to the PIAA championghips. The reason for the coach’s con cern is that the U.S. has only one athlete, Harold Connelly, capable ■L'miiiuimiHimmitiiiiimimmimiu = *ZENITH Television, Color TV,E = FM-AM Radios, Stereo Hi-Fi E Tape = • GARRARD Changers, etc. " E = ( n 'i TELEVISION § = SI SERVICE | = 1 UU J CENTER | = • 232 S.
