Borsa's
Widens Canal St's
IM League Lead
Art Borsa, terror of the Inde
pendent softball league for four
.years, chalked up another brill
iant pitching feat last night when
he turned back the, Watts Hall ten
,without a hit, while his Canal St.
Firehouse teammates pushed
:across nine runs, for a 9-1 victory.
• Apparently it was pitcher's
.night all around the league for
-Walt Batz, Jordan Hall twirler,
also succeeded in dominating his
gathe by pitching three-hit ball
with two circuit clouts sandwich
ed' in between his turns on the
mound. Jordan Hall collected 18
hits, every man in the line-up
.getting at least one, in running
up their. 14-2 score on the fifth
place Irvin Hall squad.
' In a Section 5 fraternity fray,
Sigma Alpha Epsilon lifted them
selves*up among the section lead
'ers .
defeating Alpha Chi Rho,
6-5. Going into the final seventh
inning, SAE held a slim one run
•lead, but' a home run by Shimpf,
Alpha • Chi Rho, tied the score
with half an inning remaining. In
•the last half,--however, Barr and
Parker tied two sharp doubles to
gether to provide the SAE's win
ning margin.
Two changes in the softball
'schedule have been announced by
the student manager, Bob
Red
-mount '44. The Tau Kappa Epsi
lon-Delta. Upsilon game has been
changed to 7 p. m. tonight instead
of 5 p. m. Friday and the Phi Del- -
:ta .Theta-Delta Upsilon tilt has
been shoved back to next week.
The pitching performance turn;
ed in by Borsa was highlighted by
17 strikeouts. . Borsa mixed them
high and low, inside corner and
out, in moulding his "Hall of
Tame" game. Most of his deliv
eries were 'hopping fast balls that
burned- the. batter's chin whiskers
in the path of their "hop." 'The
`Watts Hall boys just, stood 'there \
'and - took them., The few solidly .
hit _balls were easily gobbled up
by the Firehouse fielders.
Looking at :today's games the
- outstanding attraction is the mov- .
•ed -up battle between DU and
.TKE. This garde will show in
action the s rempining two teams .
'in fraternity?• Section 1. The four
team Sectipn 1 looks to be a Spir
ited fight between the winners of
„the first .half crowns for the 'ln
ierfraternity- championship.
LA Council Will Sponsor
Open Session; Math
Courses Recommended
1.; An open meeting will be held
by. the Liberal 'Arts Council next
'Wednesday so that any Liberal
Arts student can be heard who
has suggestions to make on prob
lems directly related to' the school,
Donald W. Davis 43, LA Council
president, announced last night.
. 'Should this first attempt to
create interest on the students'
'part. in student government and
Management, prove successful,
additional meetings of the same
type will be held later," Davis
added.
• • Recommendations were - made by
the LA Council to Dean Stoddart,
suggesting that advisors point out
advantages of more mathematics
courses to men students in the
lower division of the school.
These students, less apt to receive
draft deferments than juniors or
seniors, stand more of a chance
to become
,officers if they can
.meet math requirements.
In 1936, Penn State's boxing
team won the Eastern 'lntercolle
giate Boxing Association tourna
ment for the second successive
year.
111 May, 1917, approximately
300 Penn State men from all
classes volunteered for military
service and were sent to advanced
training camps.

perch and, according to Coach Leo
Houck, would have played in that
position on the team at the start
of the season.
Meanwhile, Coach Houck was 4
unable to schedule a game for to
night with a Church League team,
but hopes to have one in the early
pail of next week. This game

The Lion coach has converted
another catcher into a pitcher due
to the lack of good hurlers for the
nine. Jack Berlin has been
.changed to a moundsman although
he was a candidate for the back
stop position. He is the second
yearling to be moved to this post,
Fred Shaw having been shifted to
a pitcher earlier this week.
