Gymnastics Coach John Gilmore explained that the gymnastics team had a very tough schedule and only four men were able to compete. Thus, they werenbc able to win any dual meets. Originally, he had planned on 11 varsity members. Said Coach Gilmore, ttThe Frosh Team had more personnel than the Varsity Team. But with a new recruiting program, and the return of John Rinderknecht from Stanford in Austria, and the services of out- standing freshmen Jim Snyder and Jim Petersen, the Varsity promises to be much stronger next year.
