Coach Loken is enthusiastic about his new ringman. "Joe is a really cool performer out there under the lights. He works very hard throughout the week and is sincerely dedicated to the goal of performing well in each meet." Neuenswander reciprocates Loken's esteem. He compliments his coaches' organizing ability and his way of inspiring the team. Joe regards the sophomores and juniors as the saving grace of thissyear's gymnastic season. They seemed to have realized their potential, he says, and have filled the shoes of the de- parted seniors. "Everyone knew that would have to happen if we were going to have a winning season," he commented. "We're going to need another rings specialist for next year," Neuenswander said, "our scor- ing problem right now is the lack of a third man. Falb gets about a 9.4, I get about a 9.2 and then it drops way down into the eights. When the top three scores count, a low score really hurts. If we could get another nine in there, it would be fine." After his dramatic entrance into collegiate athletics, Neuens- wander hopes, as do all the gymnasts, to do well in his first Big Ten competition. He faces four more dual meets, two being against Big Ten foes Michigan State and Indiana, before the Big Ten meet on March 23rd and 24th. "Joe Neuenswander has ad- mittedly learned quite a bit dur- ing the season so far," Loken concluded, "and has adopted his newly gained knowledge into top routine performances. He has thus actually moved into big time college competition with com- parative ease." 1 St Anniversary 20% OFF ON PRINTING From Custom Stationery Catalogs * WEDDING INVITATIONS-ACCESSORIES Brides-a deposit will reserve your spring wedding invi- tation order at the 20% discount savings " NAPKINS-ANNOUNCEMENTS-COASTERS * FINE QUALITY-RAISED LETTER BUSINESS-PROFESSIONAL-SOCIAL LETTERHEADS AND ENVELOPES " BUSINESS CARDS !
