Almost one out of every five
men on campus, physically able
to do so, participated in intra

This was the gist of figures re

competed in IM loop play. Broken

that 579 fraternity and 615 inde

the 98 participating teams.
Forty five fraternity and 53
independent fives scheduled a
total of 340 contests during regu

The 98 teams represented in the

the fraternity trophy was Phi
Epsilon Pi, while the Cody Com
ets annexed the independent lea
gue diadem.

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA
Between the Lions—
By Ben French
John P. Tighe, also known by a
variety of nicknames fr o m
"Tiger" to "Gentleman Jackie,"
fought the toughest bout of his
_arcer last Saturday night.
Making his final appearance in
the Rec Hall ring, the two-time
captain of the Lion boxing team
accepted the Frank J. Goodman
trophy as the outstanding senior
boxer—in civilian clothes.
Sitting out his first dual meet
in four years of varsity and
freshman competition was harder
for Jackie to take than a first
round knockout. It was made
more difficult when well-wishers
slapped him on the back later
and said, "With you in there,
we'd have won!"
The EIBA champ didn't tell
them what it meant to him to be
sitting on the bench. A head in
jury, sustained in his Michigan
State bout had practically left
him paralyzed the week before
and the team physician refused to
allow him to box.
Hampered all season by a
serious nose injury, he had enter
ed the ring several times against
the physician and coach's recom
mendations.
Jackie Tighe will box in the
Eastern Intercollegiate tourna
ment this weekend. Regardless of
how well he does, many fans will
always feel that the best exhibi
tion of his career was the ninth
bout last Saturday night.
