(Pete) Quesada, peppery former Air Force general, quit yesterday as president of the Washington baseball team after two 10th place finishes. This completed a reshuffling that saw the.deparlure of both the Senators’ president and general manager while field manager Mickey Vernon, the normal scape goat for a last-place baseball team, remained on the job. Quesada was replaced by in vestment banker'James M. John ston as -chief executive officer of the American League team.

Glennland Pool has always been the base of operations, although the season has been jumped from November to January to compen sate for the term system. THE RACES are still 60 yards, which is a distance most IM swim mers can just about make with very little energy to spare. If a meet is close, the 120-yard relay at the end the deciding factor. For,instance last year - , with the championship at stake, Sigma Pi beat Beta Theta Pi by a hand’s length in the relay. In the diving event, the three dives per man rule has endured, except for a minor change in the usage of an optional dive and a required back dive. Also this year the kick which has disqualified most contestants in the breast stroke has been taken out. A scissors kick may now be used. The cramped quarters of Glenn land Pool Have supplied the rabid audiences with plenty of excite ment. From 1946 when a team called the “Yahoos” caught the imagination of the spectators, down to the present where long standing rivalries are annually threatening to splash their op ponents out of sight, 1M swim ming continues to grow.

" , - - . ■ INNSYLVANIA Lion Fencers Open Against 'Weak 1 Owls f “We might not have the best team in the country, but we sure have one of the biggest." This is the way coach Dick Klima describes his Penn State fencing squad which opens the 1963 season against Temple this afternoon in Philadelphia. Of the 12 swordsmen making the trip, ten are six feet or taller, including eight of the starting nine. The strength of this year’s outfit appears to lie in the foil team, led by 6-2 John Cooper, a strong, aggressive sophomore. In the number two spot is junior Ken Vandenburgh, the biggest man on the squad'at 6-4 and 200 pounds. Senior letterman Art Ful ler holds down the number three position, with junior Joe Bubinak on hand as a substitute, if neces sary, "I DON'T KNOW what the season as 'a whole holds for us, but I think the foil team will have a fine record,” Klima said recently. “Our opponents may be able to beat one of the men, but they’ll have a heck of a time stopping all three.” The number one sabre man is junior Chick Poole, another re turning letterman. Poole, who stands 6-3, is backed up by Jerry Evans and Chuck Dooley in-the number two and three .positions. Evans, who at 5-8 is the team’s shortest member, is labeled by his coach as one of the most promising . swordsmen on the squad. Both he and Dooley are sophomores, as is Phil lobst, the first sub for the sabremen. Lack of experience in-the epee team may be a telling factor as the season progresses. Senior Dave Lewis, another monogram winner from last year, is the number one epeeist. The. 6-3, 190- pounder is one of the “smartest” fencers on the team, according to Klima. Fred Davis and John Han sell, a pair of sophomores, are holding down the number two and three spots. Ron Cooper, another soph, is the sub for the epee team. THE TEMPLE swordsmen, coached by Ted Huber, have had a rough time of. it so far this season, dropping five of their first six meets. B\rt 'the Owls’- poor record doesn’t make Klima overly optimistic about State’s chances this afternoon. “They’ve been fencing and we Palmer Favored ,PALM SPRINGS, Calif.

For several, - of the State fencers, to day’s meet will mark their first intercollegiate competition, and this is bound to produce a couple of cases of “jitters.” One of the reasons for Temple’s poor showing so far this year is due to the loss via graduation of several key members from last year’s Middle Atlantic Confer ence champions. One of the few holdovers from that squad is A 1 Gallo, a senior who has been the Owls’ top swordsman to date. Bill Rose, another returnee, started slowly this year but is showing signs of the form which made him one of Temple’s best fencers last season. at Palm Springs 128 professionals and 384 ama teurs spreads out over the courses of four plush country clubs, Bermuda Dunes, Indian Wells, Tamarisk and Eldorado. The pros will switch courses, as well as their three amateur part ners, for each of the first four rounds, and then wind up the fifth and final day at Indian Wells minus the amateurs.
