Forward Jon Marshall (431 will need his soft shot at Ohio State ,tomorrow Schalles to team By JEFF YOUNG Collegian Sports Writer Whale he is hoping for a good showing, Schalles has fairly well set opinions on the outcome bf the match": "Michigan 'has got to be on top. They're going to be too tough for anyone. Clarion and Penn State will fight it out for second place." Of his hosts. Schalles said, "Penn State has a fine team, always one of the best in the East. along with Lehigh and Navy. I do think that they are down this. year, from normal years. They've had their injuries, and we've had ours also. It should he very interesting to see what happens."' Schalles. who is not yet sure of which v.eight )158, 167 or 177) he will wrestle at, said he feels that there are good possibilities for upsets during the individual competition "It's going to be a real outstanding caliber of wrestling," he said, "with Grid notes More honors for By RAY McALLISTER Collegian Sports Editor In the wake of John Cappelletti's scooting off with the Heisman, the otherkwards have to seem almost insignificant. But yesterday Cappelletti kept his perfect string intact by being named first team AB-America by United Press International. The UPI also brought such news to defensive tackle Randy Crowder, who, hampered by a knee injury, did not have quite the glamorous season anticipated after coach Joe Paterno called him "as quick as Mike Reid:" Offensive tackle Charlie Getty, offensive guard Mark Markovich and linebacker Ed O'Neil were named to UPl's second team while tight end Dan Natale and defensive back Buddy Ellis were accorded honor+ mention. In addition to Cappelletti, the firstagam offensive backfield included Kansas quarterback David Jaynes, and running backs Archie Griffin of Ohio State and Roosevelt Leaks of Texas. Leaks, incidentally, has had his knee cast removed and doctors indicate he'll be ready for the New Year's Cotton Bowl encounter. Pitt coach Johnny Majors has been named coach of the year by the Walter Camp Football Foundation. Majors, who turned Pitt's worst-in-history record of 1-10 into a 6-4-1 this year, previously hod been given the same honor by the Detroit Sports Extra; a weekly football publication. The Sports Extra noted that Pitt ranked 86th on its list for the 1972 season but now stands 16th. While on the subject of coaches, Paterno who already has turned down pro offers from the Pittsburgh Steelers, Grc Bay Packers and the New England Patriots has found himself on the receiving end of new coaching rumors. This time it's the New York Giants who ,supposedly are interested in Paterno as a replacement for Alex Webster. But on a recent "TV quarterbacks" program Paterno said his future would be with Penn State, adding "you're stuck with me." And the man who turned down an estimated $1.3 million 11 months ago was even more emphatic when contacted by the New York Times. "No, they (the Giants) haven't contacted me and I hope they don't," he said. "I want to stay in college coaching. I thought I settled that last winter." Penn State already has sold out its allotment of Orange Bowl tickets, it was announced yesterday. The University was provided with 12,500 tickets by the Bowl, then received , s shifting sights oriented goals outstanding individuals on each of these teams, so you never know. Like maybe John Fritz (Penn State's 126-pounder, third nationally last year) will get upset. I don't think it will happen, but the chance is there." So while everything points to a very enjoyable time for the fans, Schalles indicates that he will enjoy it as well. "Everybody has his ups and downs, and being able to look forward to the Nationals would make it much more enjoyable, but I've just got to restructure my interests .to the team." Tonight,.as most people know by now, there will be a lot of wrestlers in Rec Hall for Penn State's First Annual Invitational Wrekling Tournament. Among these wrestlers many different types of motivational factors are used. Wade Schalles of Clarion State is one who finds himself motivated for reasons somewhat different from those he has known. another 1000 from LSU. But, despite the energy crisis and accompanying fuel shortage, all 13,500 went quickly. After a two-week layoff, Penn State begins light workouts this weekend for that.bowl. In order to regain some timing, Patermo plans pad-less practices today and tomorrow. The Lions will go through about 10 practices before breaking for the Christmas holidays Dec. 21. They'll leave for Miami from Harrisburg Christmas night. And finally, a word on one of the more unsung bowl games of the season: the first annual Toilet Bowl. (No cracks about the Orange Bowl now that LSU has lost to Tulane, please. This one pits Ogontz, the intramural dormitory champion, against Butler. Butler, incidentally failed to score a single point all season and managed very, very few first downs. The best against the worst, in other words. The game, for which bowl bids were extended on toilet paper, is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. tomorrow on the IM fields. The winner, of course receives a brand new shiny toilet seat. Two serious contenders for national honors in college basketball will be tested by the best this week. Indiana's Fightin' Hoosiers first visit Kentucky, then play at home against Notre Dame. San Francisco's Dons entertain Long Beach, then pack for Providence. Their prospects, according to the Dinkel Index: Tonight: San Francisco 2 over Long Beach; Saturday: Indiana 10 over Kentucky; Tuesday: Indiana 4 over Notre Dame; Thursday: Providence 3 over San Francisco. PROW by Randy .1 Woodbury Schalles, is in his fifth year of wrestling and a two-time NCAA champion, and therefore one of the big attractions of the tournament. But this season is different for Schalles as he is no longer eligible for post-season competition. "It is quite different from what I have experienced," he related, "because it's not as colorful as the other years. This year I'm wrestling much more for the team, for Clarion State." He did add, however, that he hopes to go to the Olympics in 1976 and he must therefore work to become a "more standardized wrestler." This "wrestling more for the team" has its connotations going into tonight's action, as Schalles said, "I would like for the team to make a real good showing. It would mean a lot to me for the team to win. Even though there is no real title, people will be keeping score. The team is really looking forward to the match." Cappy Ohio. State 15-point pick over Penn State By DICK DUNKEL 1913 Dunkel Sports Research Service Buckeyes, By MARK SIMENSON Assistant Sports Editor Jerry Lucas, John Havlicek and Larry Seigfried, to name a few, found the baskets at the Buckeye arena to their liking. Each went on to shoot profitably for money in the NBA. Down through the years in the Big Ten, Ohio State has ranked as one of the best shooting teams in the conference. Last year the Buckeyes were tops from the foul line with a .747 accuracy. Penn State motors into Woody Hayes country for a contest tomorrow night in the spacious St. John's Arena (capacity 13,489). That is, if it can make it past the tractor trailer blockades outside of Columbus along Interstate 70. Once inside the arena, the Lions will have to contend with the Buckeyes who are still burning from an overtime loss to Notre Dame, a game which many people thought they should have put away in regulation time. Don Ferrell is one of them. The Lion assistant basketball coach scouted the Notre Dame-Ohio State clash. A missed free throw, ironically, cost the Buckeyes the game. ':We're in for a true test," Ferrell concluded last night as the Lions fixed all the loose ends for this Tourney starts tonight Champs By RICK STARR Assistant Sports Editor Only 10 NCAA Wrestling Champions are crowned each year and four of them will be at Rec Hall tonight and tomorrow when Penn State tries out its first invitational wrestling tourney. A card of that caliber few tournaments boast, first year affairs or otherwise. It now remains to be seen if Penn State students will come and see it since they have to pay. In contrast, UCLA and N. C. State tune up for their December 15 tremender by playing SMU and Vermont respectively. The Wolfpack rates a 47-point bulge, the Bruins only 31. Despite the squeaker over Maryland, UCLA leads the Index with a rating of 84.1, earned by being 11.5 scoring points per game better than opposition Indexed at 72.6. Ohio State, Penn State's opponent tomorrow evening, is 19th on the current Index with a 67,9 rating. The Buckeyes, with the home advantage, thus are 15-point favorites over Penn State, which is Indexed at 56.7. Here's the season's first ranking of major and minor teams: morning's trip to Columbus. "Ohio State ranks right up there with Indiana, Michigan and Michigan State in the Big Ten:They are one of the top four teams," he said. Ferrell found himself looking at an almost mirror image of the Lions when he scouted the Buckeyes. "We match up well against them," he said, adding the only advantage Penn State has is at center where 6-9 Randy Meister is two inches taller than Bill Andreas. Despite the "even" matchups, Ohio State is favored to win by as many as 15 points. John Bach, hoping to pick up win number three of the season, probably will try to exploit the advantage at the middle. "We can't win against the major teams without a top center," Bach empahsized. Meister had a mediocre game against Bucknell, scoring only nine points. He reversed himself Wednesday night by hitting short range jumpers and layups for 15 first half points. The Baldwinsville, N.Y. junior added 20 pounds before coming to fall practice. Bach, though, is satisfied with the size of his pivotman. "I've seen a lot of tall skinny kids do the job," he said: When Fred Taylor began thinking of a starting It may be worth every penny owing to an extremely strong team from Clarion State which would make a tough show against the Lions by itself. But add - four more wrestlers who earned medals in the 1973 NCAA meet and six more teams and it gives Lion wrestling coach Bill Koll cause for comment. "This should be a great tournament," Koll said. "It is a chance for local eastern teams to get a shot at us and it's good for us to wrestle good competition. It gives eight teams a chance to test themselves against good early season competition." The eight-team field for the tournament includes Clarion State, Lock Haven State, Indiana State (Terre Haute), Michigan, Slippery Rock, Virginia, West Chester State and Penn State. The four 1973 NCAA champions in the field are Clarion's three champs; Wade Schalles, Don Rohn and Bill Simpson, and Jarrett Hubbard of Michigan. Tickets can be purchased— a new experience for most student wrestling fans at the Rec Hall ticket office and at the door prior to each r The NCAA medal winners of the three sessions. who will be on the mats are Tonight's session begins at 8 Michigan's Jim browno(third p.m. with tomorrow's at 188), Bill Davids (fourth at semifinals scheduled for 2 126), Gary Ernst (fourth at p.m. The finals will then go at heavyweight) and Penn 8 p.m. Saturday.
