Intramural Grid Preview
10 Fraternities Rate
As IM Contenders
The proverbial lid comes flying off the Intramural football box
tonight on the New Beaver practice field with four games, the in
augural beginning at 7.
The Daily Collegian decided to look into that box and see what
this year's, fraternity elevens have to offer. In doing this, we have
scouted the top ten outfits in last year's tourney and here's what
we've come up with:
PHI KAPPA SIGMA took all of the marbles last year and a
veteran-laden outfit, supported by several of last year's Navy players
—winner of the Independent diadem—must rate as strong con-
tenders
captain Lou Schneider has departed. but his talented touch
down twin, Guy Tirabassi is back to pace the attack. Pledge Phil
Hodges, a former Dickinson quarterback and star of last year's Navy
team, will handle the passing. Gip • Bonar, another pledge, should
also see considerable action in the tailback slot. Schneider's brother,
a l
Tom, and Mike Beattie wilt spearhead the forward wall and 6-6
Carmen Palmiero and V nce Brehm, also 6-6, will adequately handle
the flanks.
f
PHI GAMMA DEL last year's runner-up, should also give a
good representation of it -elf. Chuck Christiansen and Jack Bergeson
are the big losses, butpasser Terry Hutton and Bill Detterer are a
top-flight combination t make the campus outfit forget their de
partures. Don Ferguson, John Lessig and pledges Jim Pratt, Wayne
Breish and Bob Mannin are additional men with enough experience
to push Phi Gam to the top.
ALPHA CHI SIGMA, semi-finalist, has most of last year's team
intact, including tailbaCk Joe Knock. Gene Capriotti and Ted ku
bista are a pair of pledges who bear watching, along with letter
winners Fred Miller. Bob Bishop and Don Featherman.
DELTA UPSILON, the other semi-finalist, will be relying upon
the diminutive shoulders of John Pepe and Don Shaw, who snags
Pepe's passes. Ogie Norris is the only pledge likely to break into the
starting eleven.
DELTA SIGMA PHI. who trademarked their attack with a hard
charging line will be without the services of Ron Lentz, Tom Close
and Duke Miller. but passers John Rusnak and George Hunter and
linemen Bill Kaiser and George Hoffman. who also passes, should
fill the gap.
Look for ALPHA. CHI RHO and KAPPA DELTA RHO to kick
up enough sparks to bump them all in the final analysis. A Chi Rho
has Steve Baidy, the all-stater, and Hugh CaOper back, and they
were IT in last year's games. Dave Watkins is a pledge who could
surpass the feats of Cooper and Baidy.
KDR, led by their do-everything-guy, Pat Reilly, should be a
contender all the way. Stan Cheslock and 6-3 Dave Hamrick are
capable receivers. Only apparent weakness is the middle line, which
will be revitalized by pledge Joe Corini.
ALPHA SIGMA PHI, ALPHA EPSILON PI. and PI KAPPA PHI
were also members of the elite ten last season. Of the three, Pi Kappa
Phi appears the strongest this year on the basis of ace tailback Ron
Rainey, unless he should forego football for basketball.
If Rainey departs. Tom Holmes or Harry Holm will inherit the
tailback spot. Don Simmons, Frank Gleim and pledge Pat Kinney
are probable starters.
AgPi's attack will be vested in triple-threat Jack Schonberger,
Mal Pritzker, Phil Petter and soph Milt Markowitz.
Alpha Sig has Harry Brown, Ralph Bower and Dick Ferrari
returning from last year's powerhouse, while pledges Tom Norton
and Jack Stenac will back that trio in an effort to stay near the top.
Mantle, Aaron Lead Pack
As Batting Races Tighten
NEW YORK, Sept. 24 (in—
Both major league batting
races go right down to the
wire this week .With Mickey
Mantle of the New York Yan
kees and Milwaukee's Hank
Aaron clinging to narrow leads.
MANTLE, the American League
pace-setter, is swinging at .356
clip and is six points ahead of
Ted Williams of the Boston Red
Sox. Aaron, hitting .325,- holds a
four-point edge over Pittsburgh's
Rill Virdon in the National
League's batting derby. Figures
include games through Sunday.
SECOND A WEEK AGO. Man
tle regained the lead from Wil
liams with 8 hits in 14 trips for a
6-point gain. Williams, hitting
.350, went 6-for-19 and lost 2
points. The Thumper, however,
still must come to the plate .17
official times in his remaining
five games to attain the 400 at
bats required to qualify for the
title.
VIRDON, -last season's Rookie
of the Year as a member of the
St. Louis Cards, is making a be
lated bid to overhaul Aaron. The
Pittsburgh outfielder gained two
points last week with 7-for-18.
Aaron went 8-for-29 and dropped
two points.
THE 22-YEAR-OLD Aaron can
become the second youngest play
er to capture National League
hitting laurels. Pete Reiser was
21 when he topped the loop as a

member of the Brooklyn Dodgers
in 1941.
BROOKLYN'S Duke Snider
tops the senior circuit in homers
with 39, followed by Cincinnati
rookie Frank Robinson with 38.
Stan Musial of St. Louis .heads
the RBI production with 105,
three more than runner-up Ted
Kluszewski of the Redlegs.
HARVEY 'KUEHN of the Tigers
ranks behind Mantle and Wil
liams in the American League
batting parade with a .332 aver
age. Detroit's Charley Maxwell is
fourth at .331 and Baltimore's
Bob Nieman rounds out the first
five with .318.
In . the National, Musial is third
with .311 and Pittsburgh's Bob
Clemente fourth with .309. Ken
Boyer and Wally Moon, both of
the Cards, are tied for fifth at
.307 each.
NEW YORK. Sept. 24 (EP)—Ron
nie Knox, highly publicized quar
terback of UCLA's Rose Bowl
team, says he quit college football
because he became disillusioned
and "the system itself forced me
to lie and taught me to connive."
8 Gridders 'Poisoned'
ALTANTA, Sept. 24 VP)—Some
microscopic "bug," probably a
type of food poisoning, put eight
husky Georgia Tech football play
ers in a hospital today.
Dodgers Win
Suspended Tilt
PITTSBURGH, Sept. 24 (.V)—
The Brooklyn Dodgers regained
the National League lead by one
percentage point tonight as they
completed a suspended game with

contest, was halted yesterday be
cause of Pennsylvartia's 6 p.m.,
EDT, Sunday curfew law.
The victory gave the Dodgers
an 89-59 record record and a .601,
percentage. Milwaukee has a .600
percentage on a 90-6 C record.
In the ninth, Bob Garber, sev
enth Pirate pitcher, struck out
Roy Campanella after giving up
a walk to Gil Hodges.
Clem Labine, also nominated to
start the regularly schdeuled con
test, pitched the Pirate ninth. He
got Johnny O'Brien to ground out
to shortstop Pee Wee Rees e,
struck out pinch-hitter Dale Long
and retired Bob Clemente on an
infield out.

THE SEARCH FOR BRIDEY SIGAFOOS
It was a dullish evening at the Theta house. Mary
Ellen Krumbald was sticking pins in an etligy of the house
mother; Evelyn Zinsmaster was welding a manhole cover
to her charm bracelet; Algelica McKeesport was writing
a letter to Elvis Presley in blood. Like I say, it was a
dullish evening.
Suddenly Dolores Vladnay stood up and stamped her
foot. "Chaps," she said to her sorors. "this is too yawn
making! Let's do something gay and mad and wild and
different and gasp-making. Anybody got an idea?"
"so." said the sorors, shaking their little sausage
curls.
"Think, chaps, think!" said Dolores and passed Philip
Morris Cigarettes to everybody, and if there ever was a
think-making smoke, it is today's fresh and zestful and
yummy Philip Morris. Things come clear when you puif
a good, clean, natural Philip Morris knots untie, dilem
mas dissolve, problems evaporate, cobwebs vanish, feg
disperses, and the benevolent sun pours radiance on a new
and dewy world. Oh, happy world! Oh, Philip Morris!
Oh, regular! Oh, long-size! Oh, get some already!
'° One. two,7lzree ,
Now Geraldine Quidnunc, her drooping brain-cella
revivified by a good Philip Morris, leapt up and
cried, "Oh, I have a .perfect gasser of an idea! Let's
hypnotize somebody!"
"Oh, capital!" cried the sorors. "Oh, tingle-making!"
"Yes," said Dolores Vladnay, "it is a splendid idea,
but hypnosis requires a pliant and malleable mind, and
we are all so strong and well-adjusted."
At this point, in walked a young pledge named Alice
Bluegown. "Excuse me, mistresses," said she, "1 have
finished making your beds, doing your homework, and
ironing your pleats. Will there be anything else?"
"Yes," snapped Dolores Vladnay. "When I count to
three, you will be hypnotized."
"Yes, excellency," said Alice, bobbing a curtsey
"One, two, three," said Dolores_
Alice promptly went into a trance.
"Go back," said Dolores. "Go back to your fifth birth
day, back to your birth, to before your birth, to your last
incarnation.... Now, who are you?"
"My name is Bride,' Sigafoos," said Alice. "The year
is lillit, and I am in County Cork."
"Coo!" said the sorors.
"How. old are you?" asked Dolores. .
"I am seven," said Alice.
"Where is your mother?" asked Dolores.
"She got sold at the fair last year."
"Coo!" said the sorors.
"Tell us about yourself," said Dolores.
"I am five feet tall," said Alice. "I have brown eyes,
and weigh 3200 pounds."
"Coo!" said the sorors.
"Isn't that rather heavy for a girl'!" said Dolores.
"Who's a girl?" said Alice. "I'm a black and white
guernsey."
"Coo!" said the sorors.
"Moo!" said Bridey Sigafoos.

Vicious Vince Carocci, not to be
outdone, proved that even worse
could be accomplished. His S-T
mark isn't too pretty, but this
boy shows promise. Anyone who
has courage enough to pick Geor—
gia over Vanderbilt (14-0, Vanelo
