BT JOHN SHEPPARD
They were whooping it up at
the Sigma Chi house last night, for
their fighting team of intramural
merman who came throUgh to
capture the 1950 fraternity swim
title by edging Pi Kappa Phi, 21
to 20. In the independent half of
'the finals Dorm 29 easily over
came Jordan Hall, 26 to 7.
Sigma Chi had entered this
year's finals the- hard way, taking
preVious 22-19 and 21-20 meets
.after losing in the Glennland pool
finals last year by a heartbreaking
22-19 count.
Different Story
But last night it was a different
story as SC's proved themselves
of championship calibre by com
ing from behind in the evening's
final event to outlast the strong
Pi Kappa Phi combine.
Dorm 29 piled up most of its
points by placing first in four out
of its five events which were run
off in clocklike fashion under the
direction of "Dutch" Sykes, assis
tant director of IM athletics.
Starring in Dorm 29's one-sided
triumph was Henry Wieler who
sparked his team to victory by
winning the 60-yard free style and
swimming on the victorious, rec
ord-breaking relay team.
Indies Set Record
A check of the records reveal
ed that a new mark was created
in the 120-yard relay event which
Dorm 29's relay team of Wieler,
Dick Mertz, Seymour Wexler,
and John Merges won with a
1:00.2
_timing.
The near-flawless diving of
Sigma Chi's Dave Douglass prov
ed to, be a major factor in his
team's victory. In addition to cop
ping individual diving honors,
which enabled his team to re
main in the running, Douglass
also won the 60-yard breast stroke
and swam on the victorious relay
squad.
Combining efforts on. SC's win
ning 120-yard relay team were
Tom Overdorf, Rich McQuillen,
Douglass, and Tony Pillegi. Pill
egi, SC's ' anchorman, spurted
ahead in the final yards to beat
Pi Kappa Phi's anchorman, Joe
Ruyak, by a hand .

Lion Grid Machine 'Opens
As 'T' Play Steadily improves
Observers who noted a wider diversity of the Penn State of
fense in Saturday's Boston college fray were not mistaken. The
Lions have added to their repertoire—and before the season is over.
the "New Plays Department" of
Rip Engle & Co. can be expected
to come up with quite a few more
innovations.
Not that the plays are actually
"new," although no doubt some
of them ,have that special Engle
angle, it's just that the Lions are
beginning to put into action some
of the T-stuff they were not able
to master earlier.
Fundamentals First
"Up until the Boston college
lame," Engle explained, "we had
been limiting ourselves to the
plays
,we • could run right. We
tried to work more plays early in
the fall, but the boys had enough
to do learning the basics, so we
dropped them."
The result is that the Nittany
offense has greater variety, with
the more than incidental result
that the entire offense—includ
ing the old maneuvers—has been
strengthened.
Engle was generally po-ased
with the results, labeling the
-quad's performance against BC
'2.5 the "best" offensive effort of
the season. "The line ,opened bet
ter holes, and the blocking was
': , eter than we've had all year."
Engle is backed by the statis
tics. The Lions gained 310 yards
from scrimmage, 230 by rushing
and 80 via passes. This net yard
age total was second only to the
Lion effort against Georgetown
when the Blue and White totaled
327. The 230 yards gained on the
ground-was the season's high, as
was the 17 first downs athassed
by the Englemen.
