TUESDAY, MAY 4, 1948 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS PAGE FIVE Mud, Rain Fail To Halt I-M Softball Activity Muddy diamonds and occasional drizzles failed to stop play in intramural softball competition Monday as Alpha Chi Sigma, Sig Eps, Beta, Edgehill Roaders, Co-ops, and Smith hall chalked up victories. Despite the bad play conditions several of the teams displayed good softball form in disposing of their opponents. The Co-ops and Smith hall had trouble squeezing out the Law® social and the Gathering, respectively. | An explosive fourth inning and a two-run homer in the sixth made the difference in a pitching duel for the Alpha Chi Sigma's in a 7 to 0 victory, over the Delta Sigma Phi. Alpha hurler Dale Clark, who faced only 27 men in the shutout, tossed a two-hit tilt and set down seven men via the strikeout while giving up only five passes. Excellent fielding by both teams aided the pitchers in their tough battle. Both moundsmen permitted only eight hits and the only errors were chalked up against the Delt's in the big fourth. ward Graham led the hitters with his hard hit homer to deep left field with one man aboard. Andy Bertuzzi smashed out a long triple; John Patton, who batted two for three, and Oliver Edwards slammed out doubles for the victors. A double by Wayne Neelson and a single by Jack Gilmore accounted for the Delt's lone safeties. DSP 000 000 0-0 2 2 000 : 502 x-7 6 0 ACS 000 1000 0-0 2 2 The Co-ops hit hard to edge the Law school 10 to 7, although both crews bagged 13 hits. The victors raced it to the lead in the last of the first and the hard fighting Lawyers were never able to overtake them. Ernest McRae, who was on the mound for the Lawyers, wiffed six of the Co-ops and issued four free passes while Bishop Hopkins was busy fanning four and delivering only one base on balls. Homers were plentiful as Morrison, Phillips, and Baker tagged three for the Co-ops. For the lawyers, McRae blasted out a four-bagger in the fourth and Jim Hunsuager laid out two doubles in three trips. Co-ops 210 120 1-7 13 4 403 120 x 10 12 3 Co-ops 102 136 140 147 A six-run sixth stanza paved the way as the Smith hall nine came from behind to cap the Gushers 8 to 7. The Gushers were unable to blow off the lid as a late seventh inning rally was stopped after three runs had crossed the plate. Norbert Zimmer and first baseman Armstrong pounded out round-trippers for the Gushers in the bottom of the seventh. The Gushers collected 10 hits and five walks off Smith hall hurler Norman Yakle while Smith hall was garnering 13 hits and a single pass. Smith hall 000 066 2-8 13 10 Gushers 010 111 3-7 12 0 The smooth working Edgehill Roaders, smarting over their last defeat, took revenge on the Wesley nine as they hammered out 19 hits behind perfect fielding to trounce Wesley 15 to 0 in a five-inning rout. Robert Fountain started the parade across the plate in the first, riding home on a single by Ray Irwin and a double by Bill Bovard. Eight runs crossed home in the third as the Roaders clouted 10 safeties, including two triples, a double, seven singles, and a homer. Irwin was the batting champ for the victors with a triple, a double, and a single in four times at bat. Hurler Clyde Burnside held Wesley to four hits while fanning three and delivering no free tickets. Long, Wesley pitcher, gave up 19 hits and two walks, and was unable to rack up any strike outs. 128 40-15 19 0 000 00-0 4 5 Edgehill Wesley The Sig Ep's coasted to their third straight win behind the three-hit pitching of Bob McNieve as they romped over the Delta Chi's 11 to 0. The winners started their victory march in the first as they pushed across three runs, then continued to score in every frame. Don Wright slapped out a homer in the third and twirler McNieve repeated the performance in the fourth. Wright and McNieve grabbed the honors as each batted two for four and scored twice. Sig Ep 341 21-11 19 4 Delta Chi 000 00-0 3 6 The Beta's remained at the top of their division by defeating the Phi Kappa's 11 to 3 as Bill Conboy sent 11 men to the showers nursing strikeouts. The Beta's, who tallied their runs on eight hits, started their scoring spree in the second stanza as they crossed the plate three times. Bill Jones scored first after receiving a pass and then stealing three bases. Highlighted by Harry Hunter's homer, it was the sixth stanza that put the game on ice for the winners as they shoved across six tallies. William Hart clouted a two-run homer in the sixth for the Phi Kap's to capture the batting honors for his crew. In addition to his 11 strike outs, Conboy limited the Phi Kappa's to five hits and passed only two men. Opposing pitcher Kenneth Diecker issued eight hits and gave up an equal number of walks. Phi Kappa 000 002 1-3 5-4 Beta 030 026 x-11 8-2 Phi Kappa 000 002 1-3 5-4 Beta 030 026 x-11 8-2 Blues 'Frozen' Out In Monday's Game The Kansas City Blues were "frozen out" of their game with the Columbus Redbirds Monday night as the game was postponed because of cold weather. The Blues will meet the Birds today, with Minneapolis playing Toledo, league-leading Indianapolis meeting invades St. Paul, and Louisville faces Milwaukee. The Brewers' long-ball hitting gave them an 11 to 2 victory over Louisville in the only game played. Carden Gillenwater hit a homer in the second with two on for Milwaukee, and teammate Johnny Logan duplicated the feat in the Brewers' eight-run sixth inning. One of Louisville's four hits off Norman Roy was a homer by Walt Dropo. Of all urban traffic fatalities, last year 8,200 happened at night, according to the national safety council. Umpires Needed For I-M Softball "We could use six more umpires every night." Jack Greer, assistant intramural manager said today. The lack of umpires has forced the intramural office to place only one man on a game, which is not adequate, Greer said. He explained that one man cannot call balls and strikes, watch the bases, and still call all decisions accurately. The intramural office pays all officials for the games they work. Big Three Has IM Edge Beta, Phi Delt, and Phi Gam, the big three in intramural standings, are setting a blistering pace in spring sport competition. The three teams have won a total of 28 games while losing only two in minor sport competition. The Phi Delt's are undefeated in all four of the minor spring sports—tennis, golf, handball, and horseshoes. Beta has lost one horseshoe match and the Phi Gams have dropped a lone golf match. Contestants arrange the matches. Each team or contestant plays one match each week. The schedule is posted on the intramural bulletin board in Robinson gym.

Tennis contests are played on the University courts and golf matches are scheduled at the sand greens south of Lawrence.

Schnellbacher Calls K-Club Meeting For Tomorrow The case revolved around Big Stage, a Sande-owned horse which won the third race at Jamaica on April 21. The racing commission said a routine saliva test revealed traces of 'an opium derivate' in Big Stage's mouth. Monday Sande was arrested by federal narcotics agents in an unprecedented move and hailed before U. S. Commissioner Edward E. Fay. He waived examination and awaited action by a federal grand jury. If tried and convicted, Sande could get from two to five years behind bars. The arrest marked the first time that a horse-doping has been made a criminal case in New York. Otto Schnellbacher has called a meeting of K-Club members in Robinson gym at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow. Read the Daily Kansan daily. Drama School!
