INTRAMURAL SOFTBALL
Thus far competition in the intra
mural softball league has been slight
ly one-sided.
On Thursday, April 28, the Philos
ophers pounded the Supermen into
submission 25-5. Jim Longo and Bill
Radzwich pitched steady ball in the
clutches allowing only nine scattered
hits. The entire Philosopher team
shared in the batting honors, banging
Reynolds of the Supermen for 37
safeties. Mink and Hudock cracked
2 for 4 to head the losers at the plate.
In a double header on Friday the
Warriors defeated the Schmoos, and
the Philosophers topped the Rabbits
with equally lopsided scores. The
Warriors, behind the eight hit pitch
ing of Joe Podrazik, exterminated
the egg laying Schmoos, 13-3, with a
fifteen hit barrage off S. Nowak.
Boyle, O'Donnell and Nowak, howev
er, each managed to collect 2 out of
3 for the losers.
Mr s . Hazleton's Philosophers
copped their second league win in
two days by trimming the Rabbits,
23-6. Once again it was the airtight
pitching of Jim Longo, Bill Radzwich
and Steve Kowalick that limited the
Brer-Rabbits to four measly hits.
Dean Underwood collected two of
these four hits, one with the bases
loaded, to drive in two runs for the
harried Rabbits. Kostic started on the
mound for the losers but was relieved
by Trapane.
On Wednesday the Schmoos
bounced into the win column by
edging out the Supermen, 14-11.
Pear-shaped Nowak notched his first
win of the season although he was
shaky in places. Shannon pitched for
the losers. Ray Kostic rapped 4 for 4
including two home runs. Walter
Bretz knocked a homer for the losers
on top of Father Koval's car while
the latter was washing it.
The Philosophers are slated to
meet the Schmoos in a game starting
at 4:15 this afternoon. On Monday
