Amato Leads DU
To IM Field Sweep
By DICK GOLDBERG
Delta Upsilon and Benny Amato had a good night at
Beaver Field yesterday.
Amato, setting a new high jump record and winning the
broad jump, led the DU's to a clean sweep of the IM field
events.
Amato cleared the bar at a measured 6'.1%" to break the
record of 5' 10 3 / 4 ".
The bar was first set at five
feet. However, Amato passed
up his jumps at the 5' 1" and
5' 2" marks. After that, he never
missed a jump until he was de
clared winner of the event at
5' 10".
Upon Amato's request, the bar
was put up to a record height of
5'11". On his
first try, he
cleared the bar
with inches to
spare. The bar
was continuously
raised until he
failed in his third
attempt for the
S' 24it" mark.
In between all
this action, Ama
to found time to
enter the broad
jump. And he
won it with a 20' 4 1 / 2 " l 'leap. This
is only 7 1 / 2 inches off the pre
vious IM record
The amazing thing about the
jump was Amato only took one
out of the required three leaps
to win the event. He went over
to the broad jump pit, took his
jump, and returned to the high
jump event in time to set his
record.
Gove Elder completed the
sweep for DU when he put the
shot 39' 11". Second went to
Dick Bartolazzi, Theta Chi,
with a 39' 6" heave. Both of
these marks came on the first

Bartolazzi threw first, followed
by Elder. Elder's put angled off
to the left, and was just enough
to clear the preceeding heave.
In the independent , shotput
there was also interesting com
petition. Steve Kerr unloosed a
mighty heave, sending the 16
pound iron sphere 40' 8". Tied for
second were Bob Lugo and Herb
Knappenburger who threw 36' 1".
In the independent high
Jump, a close race between
George Hammond and Herr) ,
Ba r ton, co•defending champs
from last year, was in the mak
ing. Both men were tied going
for the 5' 10" mark.
Barton missed his chance and
Hammond had taken two of the
three allotted turns. On the third
he just barely cleared the bar.
He did not clear the bar at the
next standard.

NEW YORK (o—Eddie Yost
drove in 6 runs with homers and
a single to help plunge the World
Champion New Yorkers to the
American League cellar yester
day for the first time in'l9 years.
The Detroit third baseman's as
sault included a grand slam
homer as he led the Tigers and
Yankee-killer Frank Lary to a
13-6 slaughter.
It was the third straight defeat
for the Yanks and dropped them
from seventh place to eighth in
an exchange of positions with the
Tigers. They are tied in games
but the Tigers moved seven per
centage points ahead.
The last time the Yankees were
in last place at this stage of the
season was May 25, 1940. The on
ly other times since then that they
have been last were in the early
days of the season when only a
few games had been played.

If the University hierarchy sends to the national championships

Phi Eps poured on the steam and
won tne next three games to win
the set and match.
The turning point of this de
ciding set was in the eighth game.
Greenberg took the offensive and
forced the game with his hard
slams. Kamis was also sharp in his
defensive backcourt play. Haber
became erratic in this set and.
Brandeis did not play with con
sistency. "They played on the de
fense too much and as a result
set us up for easy slams," said
Greenberg after the match Wag
