Friday, December 15, 1961 WILKES COLLEGE BEACON 7 Wilkes Open Provides Holiday Feature Outstanding Wrestlers Headline 'Rose Bowl' , Past Champions Enter One of the country's feature wrestling attractions, the Wilkes College Open Wrestling Tourna- ment, will take place for the 30th time on December 28 and 29 at the Wilkes College Gymnasium. A rec- ord turnout of 350 wrestlers is ex- pected. An indication of the tournament's popularity is the fact that the 350 wrestlers hail from 65 universities, colleges, and athletic clubs and 24 different states. Such countries as Canada, Japan, Iran and Hungary are also represented. The nation's largest wrestling tournament will attract some of the most famous names in current ama- teur wrestling. Gray Sirnons, the 1962 NCAA 123 pound champion and outstanding wrestler, returns to this year's tourney as does the Pan American 147 pound champion, Frank Bettucci; the Middle Atlan- tic champ of the past three years at 177, Mike Pacilio; and the out- standing wrestler of last year's open, Carmen Malino. Other re- turning winners of last year's Wilkes tournament are Charles Bush at 115 and Ron Dellapina at 147. The Bruce Blackman Memorial honoring the late sports editor of Times-Leader Evening News who actively supported the open tourna- ment and who was an avid wres- tling fan will again be awarded to the outstanding wrestler. Four wrestling sessions will be divided over the two-day period in- cluding preliminaries, consolations and finals. A wrestling clinic was held for over 300 high school wres- tlers by some of the nation's fore- most wrestling coaches and a ban- quet are additional features of the tournament. The college and post-college wrestlers use the tourney as a training ground for the Olympics.
