Weiss Leads State
Over Scandinavia
(Continued from page one)
Finland's 011 i Laiho, suffered a shoulder injury in
the floor exercise, and could complete only one
event, the side horse.
The Scandinavian star managed a 9.65 on that
apparatus; and if he could have continue in the
other events, the outcome may have been different.
"It was a sub-dislocation," a downcast Laiho
said after the meet. "I hurt it first about a year ago.
On the pommel horse, it was aching so badly that I
couldn't see anything because of the pain."
Penn State trailed only once in the meet, after
the pommel horse competition. The Lions averaged
9.06 per event, and afterwards, Penn State Coach
Gene Wettstone had words of praise for his gymnasts.
"Our performances were better tonight than
they were last year against Cologne," Wettstone said.
"Emery and Weiss exceeded their scores of last year,
but I was a little disappointed with Cohen "
Cohen was also a little disappointed with his
performance but he had reservations about how well
he could have done under the circumstances.
"I don't think I was well-enough prepared for
the meet," said Cohen who has been spending more
time on his medical studies than his gymnastics, "I
tried to cram too much into too short a time. Ac
tually I did as well as I had any right to do."
And alI-around king Weiss had lauded the
younger members of the Lion lineup, juniors Emery;
Joe Litow, John Kindon and sophomore Dick Swet
man.
"This was a young team, but everyone pulled
together well," Weiss said. "And what's more, this
kind of thing is great for international relations.

Lions Meet Pitt
(Continued from page four)
(16), Bill Stansfield (12.3) and Galen Godbey (11.6) are the
other regulars averaging double figures.
In the rebound department, Persson, a 6-3 scrapper,
again tops the squad with 76, followed by Bill Young (71),
Godbey (66), and 6-2 Daley (45). The Lions have yielded
73.4 points per game while scoring 72.8 themselves.
Egli now has something he didn't possess through the
first seven games—depth, Bill Stansfield, at 6-8, returned
to the lineup on a regular basis recently, and two new
comers, Gregg Hamilton and Mike Egleston, showed
promise in their first bit of action Wednesday. Egli also
sighted an overall increase in spirit since the duo, aca
demically ineligible the first part of the season, started
attending practice sessions.
The coach hopes to make a good showing in what may
be a good opportunity for advancement today. It may be
the team's last good opportunity.

--- TUNE IN, YOU MAY WIN ---
After lo these many years our humble
little bug hos gone automatic.
Gone is the clutch.
Gone is the wifely whine, "Ws cute, but
I can't drive it,"
Gone is an era of Volkswagendom.Snilt
And in its place?
A Volkswagen you con drive all over
town without shifting.
Onfy on the highway do you shift.
Once. (This is an economy move. Which,
after all, is still the name of the game.)
But you do have a choice in the matter
you can drive it the easy way (described
above). Or you can start out in low and
take it through the gears like a regular
stick shift.
The automatic stick shift is an optioni
you pay a little more. .
But you do a little less.
