THURSDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1948 Between Lions Es®!? By Tom Morgan SPORTS EDITOR Discussion As part of his daily regimen, Ralph Reconnoiter, our admiring fraternity brother and valued compatriot, entered a local eatery the other day. He spied two broad-shouldered behemoths hunched over a small table and arguing vehemently over some seemingly vital point. Center of their interest was a place mat on which each seemed to be drawing lines fe verishly as of to press home his cherished viewpoint. Per haps a discussion of a phase of Einstein's theory? To find out, our friend crept closer and discovered one Chuck Drazenovich and his fraternal kin, Joe, engrossed in a heated skull session. Our friend moved even closer to discern what sort of drawing Joe and Chuck were creating on the place mat. Startled, he withdrew surrep titiously and later reported to us that the Brothers Drazeno vich were discussing—not Ein ilain—but an Intricate football play, the salient features of which were represented by a PRINTING Multillthing Addressograph Service COMMERCIAL PRINTING Glennland Bldg.

Sigma NU Grabs Pair of IM Bouts Sigma Nu continued to dominate intramural boxing at Recrea tion Hall last night, but decisions were getting harder for judges to make as the punch-and-duck sport moved into the third round for some fighters. Last year’s champion team drummed out two victories, Tom Lucas, 121-pound wildcat, slugging like a heavy-weight, slapping Dick Freistak, Theta Kappa Phi, into dizziness for a TKO victory; while Jack Weidenman, recover ing form after being slowed by a terrific uppercut, came back to decision Dick Goodling, Alpha Tau Omega. Seve other boxers battered their way to victory before a large crowd including a bigger percentage of coed boxing fans. The IM department meanwhile announced another 12-bout card for today, with fights to begin at 5 p.m. SIZZLING TEMPO The sizzling tempo of the heavyweights again captured the favor of the fans in two bouts, Joe Drazenovich, Delta Upsilon, decisioning John Woche, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, and in the last fight of the night, Newton Comly, Alpha Gamma Rho, piim meled Bill Herrman, Chi Phi, for a decision win. Give an intimate gift—a flattering photograph of you. Call us today—have this precious por- trait in time for Christmas. Penn State Photo Shop PAGE THREE Astonishing the mob with his ability to take staggering blows and wade in for more, Herrman set his teeth in the final minute of his losing brawl to shake Comly with an earthquake right that almost evened the squabble. Comly, however, stuck it out to win. Joe Drazenovich, listening to brother Chuck, varsity heavy weight, came back in the third round with flailing fists, dropping his guard and concentrating on offensive, to tire Woche and gar ner a close decision. BATTLE OF LEFTS In a battle of lefthands, jab against cross, Sid Manes, 165- pounder from Phi Sigma Delta, blistered his way to a three rdund decision over Richard Dum, Alpha Gamma Rho; George Kelly, Alpha Chi Sigma, tem- Continued on page four
