3 Hoya Sophomores
Get Distance Test in,
C-4A Meet Saturday

Three Georgetown sophomores
who are being groomed as sue
ceSsors to Charley Capozzoli and
Joe LaPierre as distance running
stars at the Hilltop get their
first test against collegiate COM
petition Saturday when they run
in the IC-4A Championships at
Madison Square Garden.
The Hoyas have entered Bob
Lippemeier and Frank PLACING
in the 2-mile event and Joe
Skutka in the mile.
Other Georgetown representa-
tives in Saturdays meet are Paul
Baroncelli in the shot put, Ray
Brophy in the hurdles, Tom
Flaherty in the pole vault and
a 2-mile relay team of Ed Kirk,
Vince Kelly. John Peyton and
Fred Abingdon.
First Start for 2 Hoyas.
Lippemeier was tested in the
Smile event of the National
AAU championships last Satur-
day--dropping out after the
first 2 miles-but the other dis
lance runners will be making
their first starts of the indoor
campaign.
The mile field in which
Skutka will run is a particularly
big one this year with Al en-.
trants. and meet officials have
found it necessary to schedule
heats in the afternoon. The ia
vorite is Lew Olive of Army, sec
ond to Fred Dwyer of Villanova
last year and winner of the out
door title. He has won five dual
meet miles already this year.
Strong Mile COntenders.
Other strong entrants include
Billy Smith of Boston u, Dan
Sommers of Pittsburgh, Bill ST.
Clair of Manhattan and Terry
Foley of Fordham.
OF the other Georgetown en-
trants, Baroncelli and Brophy
seem to have the best chances
of scoring, and the 2-mile relay
team should be good for a high
up finish behind favored Ford
ham. Baroncelli topped so feet
with the 16-pound ball last
week for his best effort to date,
compared to the 81 feet, 9la
inches which won last year.
