Betas Win 5 Straight A' Hill Football Titles
It was Beta's day on the Hill yesterday.
For the fifth consecutive year, Beta Theta Pi won the intramural touch football "A" Hill championship. The victim was JRPF, a Joseph R. Pearson Hall team and Independent "A" Hill champ, which fell to the "Butts," 21-0.
For the fourth consecutive year, the Beta Theta Pi "B" team won the Fraternity "B" Hill championship, crushing Phi Gamma Delta, 47-20. The Beta "Bees" play the Navy ROTC team, Independent "B" champions, today at 4 p.m. for the "B" Hill championship.
The Betas drew first blood midway through the first quarter when they marched 70 yards in 11 plays to score. The tally came on a 15-yard blocking-back release, when quarterback Morgan Metcalf threw to Karl Kreutziger. Bob Swan added the conversion to give the Betas a 7-0 lead that they carried to the halftime intermission.
IN SPITE OF THE Beta "A" team's 21-point margin of victory, the Hill championship game was a hard-fought contest down to the wire.
The Betas began their initial scoring drive on a pass interception by safety Laird Patterson on his own 10-yard line.
JRPF had taken the ball on the first series of downs and, sparked by the pinpoint passing of quarterback Jim Poage and receiving of ends Gary McCabe and Denny Morse, moved deep into Beta territory in six plays.
THE BETA DEFENSE, however, featuring a hard rush by John McCormick, Ron Greenlee, and Kreutziger, pressured Poage into the errant pass,
one of five that the alert "Butt' secondary picked off during the afternoon.
The third period was also a scoreless dual, but both teams showed steady drives on offense that marched them far into enemy territory.
Beta Theta Pi took the ball on the first series of downs after the intermission and moved from their own 20-yard line to the JRPH 12 in 14 plays. Typically, the conservative Beta offense tore off small chunks of yardage most of the afternoon, splitting the JRPH secondary.
However, the defending champions ran into a tough JRPH defense, led by rusher Jim Simms, and the drive stalled on the opponent's eight- yard line.
TOWARD THE END of the period, JRPH had its second chance to put across the tying tally. Beta kicker Dave Phillips boomed a 46-yard punt to Poage, who was standing on his own 15. Poage then rifled a pass up the sideline to McCabe who returned the ball all the way to the "Butt" 30.
Two plays later, however, at the outset of the fourth quarter, Poage rifled a 20-yard pass up the middle which Beta linebacker Jim Emerson intercepted in the end zone, killing the threat.
Then the Betas caught fire, moving the ball 60 yards in five plays to an insurance score. The touchdown came on a 30-yard bulls-eye from Metcalf to end Laird Patterson, and again Swan added the extra point.
The key play in this series was a 30-yard Metcalf-to-Emerson pass on the play preceeding the touchdown.
