Gymnasts Host Unbeaten Owls
Nobody’s giving any odds, but the chips will be down
today when the Penn State and Temple gymastics squads
battle at 3 p.m; in Rec. Hall.
The Lion gymnasts, victors in their first and only start of
the season (54-42 over Springfield), will seek to hand an
unbeaten Temple contigent its first loss of the season in five
meets,
At 4:30, the Nittany freshman gym squad entertains
Queens College of Long Island,
N.Y., in the first meeting between
the two schools.
Coach Carl Patterson’s squad
owns wins over West Chester,
Springfield, South Connecticut
State and Navy. The 59-37 deci

first time in 13 years that the
Owls were able to manage a vic
tory over the Annapolis gym
nasts.
LAST YEAR Temple played
host to State’s performers in the
Owls’ hometown of Philadelphia,
but coach Gene Wettstone’s pro
teges were ungrateful guests. The
Nittany G-men easily won, 61%-
to 34%, ,and upped their lead in
the all-time series between the
two schools to 16 wins and eight
losses.
Heading the list of Temple en
tries in today’s meet is Mark
Cohn, a high scoring all-round
competitor. Cohn, a sophomore,
will compete on the side horse,
parallel bars and high bar.
Tim Phillips rates as the Owls’
No. 2 man onthe side horse, hori
zontal bar and parallel bars. Two
other all-around performers
Barry Weissman and ‘Bill Wright
comprise the rest of the Temple
squa'd.
FOR PENN STATE, Tom Sew
ard will compete in free exercise
and on the horizontal bar and
parallel bars. Both Seward and
Cohn are among the choice can
didates for Eastern honors in the
all-around category.
Vaulting on the long horse will
be the veteran F. P. Sforza, Pete
Saponaro and Tom Burtnett. Sfor
za, along with sophomore stand
out Bill Jenkins and specialist Bud
will also perform on the
still rings;
Junior A 1 Porter, and letter

arlacher are on the side horse;

EAT AT THE SIGN OF THE LION
GENE HARLACHER
By JOE GRATA
Mike Jacobson, another of Wett
stone’s prize sophomore products,
will perform as No. 2 man onthe
horizontal bar and the parallel
bars. Culhane will also perform
on the horizontal bar and Har
lacher, on the parallel bars.
THE ORDER of events will be
as follows: free exercise, long
horse vaulting, side horse, paral
lel bars, horizontal bar and still
rings.
“This meet may turn out to b&
closer than we think,” Wettstone
said early this week. “We’ve
shifted our lineup just a little and
should be at full strength."
The Temple squad, which .has
the option to choose three events
in which its gymnasts can per
form last, has elected the long
horse, side horse and free exer
cise.
