New Aggie Weider
Holds Own Ideas
By JOE BOYD
Assistant Sports Editor
Russell Karl von Wieder is not an ordinary coach! The
new Aggie fencing and wrestling mentor has his own ideas
about a lot of things—and gets convincing results.
A quiet, soft-spoken man who has never fenced as an
amateur, Wieder comes to Aggieland from Grove City College
in Pennsylvania where he guided his swimming team to a
Penn-Ohio championship.
Early in his professional fencing career Wieder
amazed the world of sports and paved the road for his fu
ture coaching by defeating Europe’s leading swordsman,
Leonardo Terrone. This feat attracted the attention of
world champion Pauese Generive who imparted many of the
fundamentals f o r Wieder’s ' , . . .
present teaching tech- to boxinff ’ fenci »K> swimming.
niques.
A two-year stint in the
United States Army and a
coaching position at Western Re
serve College took up all of
Wieder’s time before Grove City.
At the Cleveland, Ohio school he
headed up the boxing, fencing, and
wrestling programs.
Wieder was not a physical edu
cation major at all-male Kenyon
College, Ohio. Nor did the com
petitive-minded coach participate
in intercollegiate sports!
Ironically, Wieder received a
Liberal Arts education and was
a professional in every sport he
cared for by the time he reached
college age. The short, well-
built athlete turned his talents
diving, and wrestling.
The secret of Wieder’s uncanny
success lies in his unyielding de
votion to all competitive sports.
Since early childhood he has con
ditioned himself and trained for
the ring, the pool, or the wrestling
mat. “I’ve devoted my entire life to
studying, teaching, and practicing
competitive sports,” Wieder as
serted.
Wieder is pleased with his posi
tion at A&M. “I’ve never seen such
a friendly college,” said the new
grappling coach. “I think this fine
attitude will help greatly in turn
ing out good teams.” Wieder be
lieves the spirit of the individual
contributes more to the success of
fencing and wrestling than any
thing else.

In Intramurals
Diving held sway in the intra
mural program last night on the
campus. The men entering the pre
liminaries had to prove themselves
proficient in two required dives
and three optional dives. Forty
seven men were able to do this suc
cessfully and get down to business.
The two required dives were a
front and back dive in any position,
tuck, pike, or layout. Judging the
men were Coach Mamaliga and
some members of his varsity crew
of divers. He likes to do this so
that he can pick up some of the
talent displayed for his varsity
team. About a half of his varsity^,
divers came to him via this outlet.
In class A first place was grab

Artillery with a score of 136.2
Second place belongs to D. A. Boyd
of Leggett Hall, who scored 112.6
total points. Third position went
to J. R. Harris of Sqdn. 17 with
111.4 points. T. L. Martin of Sqdn.
13 took fourth with 105.3 points.
Fifth belongs to J. B. Roland of A
Quarter Master who gathered 102.6
points.
Class B qualifiers were B. J.
Johnson of Sqdn. 12 whose 112.75
points put him in first place, Hous
ton Floyd of Puryear Hall with
