Off the topic of sports, Dr. Walker was telling the hatmen
(and hatwomen) about the planned housing of men and women in
some of the new dorms.
`'We plan to house half men and half women," Prexy explained,
then realizing the double meaning of the statement, clarified it with,
"An equal number of men and women."
And while we're on the topic, this column might try to aid
Prexy in one of his problems. It seems the trustees are cool to the
term "community living" (for obvious reasons) in reference with
housing men and women in the same buildings (on different
floors, boys.)
If you can come up with a different tab that would not carry
the "marital" connotation, send it

The Daily Collegian.
The winner will receive a personal subscription to The Daily

Larsen Not Slated
For World Series
CHICAGO (il 3 )—The New York
Yankees' Don Larsen, who in
1956 pitched the only perfect
game in World Series history,
may riot be in the 1958 series.
The Yankees disclosed Tuesday
they have listed_ only 23 eligible
players with Commissioner Ford
Frick's office for the post-season
series, probably with the Milwau
kee Braves next month.
Larsen's name is not on the
list. He is suffering from an ail
ing elbow in his pitching arm and
has not pitched since Aug. 16.

Illness Keeping Williams
From 6th Batting Crown
NEW YORK (4)—Ted Williams, 40 years old, dogged by
illness and 70 points behind his pace of a year ago, will prob
ably return to the Boston line-up Tuesday night and begin
late season move aimed at winning his sixth American
League batting title.
Because none of the contenders
have been able to hit consistently,
Williams finds himself in a bet
ter position to finish on top than
when he was bedded with a heavy
cold Aug. 25. He has not been to
bat since.
When he left the line-up Wil
liams was in seventh place in the
batting race, 12 points behind his
league-leading teammate Pete
Runnels, Monday, Williams, with
a .315 mark, is fifth and only
eight points behind Runnels.
Runnels' average dropped five
points to .323.
According to a Boston spokes
man, the weather will determine
whether Williams will start or
pinch-hit against th e Chicago
White Sox Tuesday night.
In the National League, Stan
Musial of St. Louis took advan
tage of a mild slump by Philadel
phia's Richie Ashburn to take
over the lead.
Musial, who missed several
games because of a leg injury,
dropped one point to .340. Ash
burn tailed off five points to .336
with a 10-for-31 performance last
week.
