facilities in center committee finds space insufficient by bert keats should freshmen and upperclass men live in separate residence halls this was the main topic of discus sion at the residence halls council meeting wednesday evening the newly-formed freshman residence hall committee submitted regula tions concerning this problem to the rhc at this meeting some of the main points made at this discussion were fresh men comprise 60 per cent of the residence halls system and be cause of this it is difficult to find enough qualified men for a rep resentative student government upperclassmen have proved to be a poor influence on the fresh men in many cases if the freshmen were subject to a stricter system there would be few er flunks and undesirables in the upper classes freshmen pledging fraternities make for poor unit in the sections the report stated see segregate page s by pete hynes lehigh wrestlers sparked by werner seel's last period pin established themselves as the best in the east last saturday evening as they upset the pitt panthers last season's eiwa champions 14-12 in the pitt field house although the engineers third straight triumph was the result of a tremendous team effort the man of the hour was undoubtedly seel the often criticized senior heavyweight with lehigh on the short end of a 12-9 score seel faced the panther's dan wisniewski a mammoth sophomore who had battled werner to a scoreless draw during the wilkes tournament last december on that occasion seel was awarded a referee's decision seel jumped to an early advan tage by virtue of a takedown in the closing seconds of the first period wisniewski took the top position to start the second period after an exchange of reversals left wisniew si still in control seel reversed again and added a predicament point to his score as the period end ed as the third period started seel reading 7-2 took the of fensive in an effort to pin his man he accomplished his ob jective at 7:10 of the bout with a bar arm and body press as seel was carried off the mat by his teammates it was evident that he had not only handed the panthers their second loss in two years but he had also regained his hero's rating which he lost last spring he lost to pete blair of navy one of the unsung hero's of the meet was steve wisoker the engi neers 123-pound entry who was pitted against the more experienoed bill hulings athough hulings took a commanding 7-0 decision he could not pin the cagey wisoker ed peery son of the pitt coach had surprisingly little trouble in beating pete mangus 8-1 he is definitely a strong contender for the eiwa 130 pound championship with the panthers leading 6-0 in team score the brown rallied to take the next three at 137 pounds dave bates handed nick swenwtos ky a 6-1

facilities to the student activities committee in connection with the planning of the university center the committee finds itself faced with a perplexing problem student response to the questionnaire indi cates an overwhelming desire for bowling alleys but sufficient space is not available without curtailing other activities therefore the committee submits two plans — one with and one with out bowling facilities we feel that sincere consideration should be giv en to bowling in the light of stu dent interest yet arrangement and cost might better be decided by the administration and the architect three bowling alleys would be located in the center por tion of the basement marked game room the alleys would require an area of 82 by 15 feet however the length of the room next issue of

required to report feb 8 at 7 pm measures only 79 feet with a width between structural posts of 17 feet four ping-pong tables would be placed in the side portions of the game room since area and student response were sufficient two table shuffleboards would also be pro vided space is not sufficient to allow for pool tables athough student re sponse was favorable neither space nor response was sufficient to war rant recommending straight-rail bil liards the alternate plan eliminat ing bowling alleys would pro vide space for four pool tables and would free a 40 by 15 foot foot space for board of publi cations use ping-pong tables and shuffleboard would be in cluded as above organizational recreation model railroad club the club is satisfied with its present location lehigh university
