Battle For Hill Championship Begins Today In I-M Softball
By JOHN McMILLION
The struggle for the Hill championship in intramural softball will get under way this afternoon at 4:15 when the first round of the fraternity "A" playoffs begins. The opening session of the independent "A" playoffs will start Wednesday afternoon.
Four fraternity "A" teams drew first round byes and will not play until Thursday. These teams are the Phi Psi's, winner of division I, the A.T.O.'s winners of division III, the Sigma Nu's, who finished in a three way tie for first in division II, and the Phi Kaps, who tied for second in division IV.
Today's games find Sigma Chi 1949 champions, pitted against the Beta's on field six; the Alpha Kappa Psi nine versus the Ph Gams on field two; the Sig Eps, 1949 runner-up, meet the Delta Upsilons on field three; and the Sig Alphs will play Triangle on field one.
The teams to watch should be Sig Alph, Sigma Nu, Sig Ep, and Phi The Sig Alphs are somewhat of darkhorse but have a well rounded aggregation and will be strong. In Harry Koons, business senior, the
Sigma Nu's possess probably the best pitcher in the fraternity "A" league. His closest rival is Bell of Sig Ep, a pitcher he beat 7 to 6 earlier in the season. The Phi Psi's proved their potentialities when they blasted Sigma Chi 19 to 2 last Sunday to win their division.
The champion could well be decided Thursday when the Sigma Nu team meets the winner of the Sig Ep-DU game. This should be the Sig Eps and a Koons versus Bell duel appears to be in the making. In their first meeting both men pitched nine hitters but Koons struck out 10 men to Bell's two to cop the game.
always a scrappy bunch. His pit-
ter Bill Conboy, is also a top-notch
hurler. He bested the Sigma Nu's 11
to 10 in the regular season.
The division champions will be determined by how far a team gets in the playoffs. Therefore the team from each division that gets the farthest will be awarded the division trophy. This is only in the case of those divisions where there were ties as the A.T.O. and the Phi Psi teams have already won a clear cut championship in divisions I and III.
The Beta-Sigma Chi game should be a close one. The Sigma Chi's will be on the upgrade after the shellacking that the Phi PSi team handed them on Sunday and the Beta's are
The playoffs will be finished by next Tuesday unless bad weather causes some postponements. The first round of the independent "A" will be Wednesday and then the second round of the fraternity "A" will be played Thursday.
In the independent "A" bracket it looks as if the Jim Beam's, A.R.O. T.C. and the Dix Club will be the teams to beat. Each of these squads were winners of their divisions.
It is hard to say just what team will be the ultimate Hill champion but Phi Psi, Sig Ep, or the Sigma
Women Near Softball Finish
Suspense is almost over as the championship of two divisions was determined in Monday's women's intramural softball games. The last tie play-off will be this afternoon when Harmon meets Delta Gamma for the title in division III.
Jayettes pounded out a 27 to 6 victory over Pi Beta Phi to become champions in division I after a three-way tie with the Pi Phi's and Jolliffe. The winners "poured it on" for a 14-run spree in their half of the first inning while allowing their opponents only one score. The game tightened down after that, but home runs by N. Blackwood, Scott, and Schiller for the Jayettes and Maloney for the losers kept the game interesting. Moore and Jones registered the victory as Baker and Stodder went down for the loss
Warner led off with a homer for the Tri-Delts and set the pace for the contest that was won in the first 3 innings. The winners came out of the second ahead 6 to 4 and blanked the A. D. Pi's the rest of the way while adding 12 of their own, 11 in the last inning.
Delta Delta Delta scored an 18 to 4 victory to defeat Alpha Delta Pi and regain full title to division honors after being dumped to a tie with them by a defeat at the hands of the cellar-dwelling A.O.Pi's in their final game.
Richmond and Brubaker are credited with the victory as Coppedge and Tessendorf take the defeat.

Dave Dennis Slams Way To Invitational Golf Win
Dave Dennis, K.U.'s lone entry in the fourth annual Colorado college invitational golf tournament, walked off with individual honors. The tourney was held May 12 and 13 on the swanky Broadmore golf course in Colorado Springs.
Dennis topped a field of 60 with his true driving and keen putting. Dave turned in a 36-hole total of 147—seven over par—to edge Skip Carlson of Iowa university by two strokes for the championship. Another Big Seven golfer, Oklahoma's Jim Vickers, carded a 152.

Lila Tessendorf, Chloe Warner, and Ada Watson.
Freshman: Vinita Bradshaw, Lorraine Godding (mgr.), Esther Harms, Marilyn Hanson, Ada Hatfield, Shirley Hillier, Catherine Holloway, Joyce Jones, Jere Mueller, Darlene Schindler, Donna Schleifer, Jerry Tillotson, Virginia Tinker, and Shirey Wilkie.
Scores were high in the Colorado college tourney due mainly to extremely fast, slick greens. Putting was greatly hampered and playing was difficult if the golfer got off the fairway. Long, accurate driving by Dennis kept him out of trouble.
In team play, Oklahoma, who won the tourney in 1949, placed third and the Colorado Buffalos fourth. Denver won the team title from a field of nine.
It was the second major championship captured by the battling business senior in two years. He won the national junior college championship
