selves with a lone corner kick.

umph over Tau Phi Delta. The

dent and fraternity, advanced in
to the second day of inter-league
playoffs. The winners of last

vanced to the semi-finals, to be
played tonight.
On the fraternity side of the
ledger, Sigma Chi's A squad,
champions of league H, fought a
winning battle against the A team
from Kappa Sigma, 15-10, 15-11.
Not bei n g contented with a

top men in the J loop. The iron
man stunt failed to - work as the
J circuit winners came through,
15-3, 15-12.

the K league, had little trouble
subduing the I loop champs, Sig
ma Nu, in a fast game, 15-2, 15-7.

enough to overcome the M league
power, Sigma Phi Epsilon. The
two set match went 15-12, 15-7,
in favor of the Phi Kap's.
F league champs, Phi Epsilon
Pi's A team, was the power that

finest. In a three set, hard fought
match, the Iron Men took the
two end sets 15-13, 6-15, 15-7.

Hollen Will
MSC Track
The absence of Red Hollen from
Saturday's meet with Michigan
State may spell the difference be
tween victory and defeat for the
Nittany thinclads. Hollen must
take an examination for entrance
into medical school and will not
be able to accompany his team
mates to East Lansing. ,
The Spartans have some good
sprinters, and it will be rough for
the Lions to gain any points in the
100 and 220-yard dashes. Skip
Slocum,' however, may surprise
some of Michigan State's highly
touted sprinters. In the 440 it is
doubtful if 011ie Sax is in good
enough shape to compete with
Lou Vargha, who recorded a time
of 0:48.3 against Illinois last week.
Dave Leathem and Sax should
take second and third though.
Sax has not had much work since
his injured ankle healed.
One of the Spartan strongholds
is in the 880, where they have
four topflight men in Dick Jar
rett, Lyle Garbe, John Cook and
Jim Kepford. With these men
combining in the two-mile relay,
they should take the five points
alloted for that event. Don Austin
may capture some points for the
Lions in the 880, for his sizzling
1:54.7 against Navy proves his
Baseball's Big Leagues
The New York Giants blasted
six Chicago pitchers in a 15-hit
attack yesterday to hand the Cubs
their seventh straight loss, 8-5,
in a three-hour five-minute strug
gle.
A. big six-run rally in the fifth
inning did the trick with the help
of two-hit relief pitching by Al
Corwin and Hoyt Wilhelm down
the last five innings.
The Giants tied a National
League record with only one as
sist—a throw by Sal Maglie to
double Roy Smalley on first base
in the fourth inning. Three other
National League teams have had
only one assist, the last being
Pittsburgh in 1950. The American
League record is no assists.
Ned Garver, working with a
sore knee, belted a two-run hom
er and scattered 10 hits to lead
Detroit to an 8-4 victory over
Washington.
Garver ran off the mound look
ing for a bunt in the .sixth when
his leg buckled. Jack Homel, Ti
ger trainer, merely ran onto the
field and slipped it back into
place.
In addition to Garver, three
other Tigers knocked in two runs
—Bob Nieman, Walt Dropo and
Steve Souchock.
The Chicago White Sox snap
ped a three game losing streak
behind the six-hit pitching of
Billy Pierce-by downing the Bos
ton Red Sox 6 to 2.
Del Wilber's pinch hit homer
with one on in the seventh
spoiled Pierce's bid for a shutout.

Miss
Meet
showing in the Penn Relays was
no fluke.
If Bill Youkers can duplicate
his performances in the Middie
meet, the Lions might be able to
make a rip-roaring fight out of
the dual meet. The Spartans have
two hurdlers who have done un
der 0:15.0, while Youkers won the
120 highs with a time of 0:15.2.
Although the Lions figure to be
outclassed in the track events,
they should be able to dominate
the field events. Jim Herb will
have to perform at his peak to
win the high jump. Two Spar
tans have cleared the bar at 6 ft
2% in., Herb's winning height last
week.
Another Lion who will have to
perform well in order to win is
pole . vaulter Dan Lorch, who hit
only 11 ft. 6 in. at Annapolis. The
SpartAns have two men who have
cleared 12 ft. 6 in. Broad jumper
Ron Johnson will have some stiff
competition to contend with, but
should take a valuable second for
the Lions.
Rosey Grier may once again
make a clean sweep of the discus,
shotput and javelin, and. wi t
some help from Al Schutz - and
Bill Body the Lions could sur
prise the Spartans.
