Delta Gamma Downs Sig Ep's In 1947 'Brown Bottle' Game
A post-season "grudge battle" over the coveted "Brown Bottle" ended in a wild 22 to 4 softball victory for Delta Gamma over Sigma Phi Epsilon Monday.
The Brown Bottle, a trophy modeled only slightly after the Brown Jug of the famous Michigan-Minnesota rivalry consists of a wooden model of a softball, mounted on a base of walnut, and topped by a beer bottle. The
base is inscribed with the names
if the competing teams and goes to the winner each year.
to use winner each year.
In an attempt to "equalize" the teams, the Sig Eps went too far and the DG's capitalized. Sig Eps batted left-handed, walked around the bases, and allowed the girls six outs per inning.
Not liking the quality of the umpiring, irate Sig Eps doused Umpire Jim May with buckets of water in the third inning. May attempted to halt the game because of "showers", but his decision went unheeded.
In the fourth inning, Sig Ep had to put its entire membership on the field to end DG scoring. This move created a mob scene around second base, and DG countered by running two girls ahead of each baserunner as interference.
Riot broke out in the fifth inning when a Sig Eip baserunner dropped a smoke bomb at second base, and the Delta Gamma team scurried off the field. On the first play after the smoke cleared, Dave Johnson was called out at second base, but refused to leave the field, so six DG's picked him up and carried him off.
Starting lineups:
Jeanne Atkinson, DG pitcher, was the heroine of the afternoon, getting five hits, including two home runs to help win her own game.

Tomorrow Will Be IM Ballot Deadline
The deadline for turning in in- tramural softball all-star selections has been extended till noon Wednesday.
Intramural managers of all teams should turn in nominations to the basket on the sports desk in the Daily Kansan news rooms.
Several organizations had not yet submitted lists by the previous deadline at noon Monday. Don Powell, director of men's intramurals, and Jim Raglin, Daily Kansas intramural editor, want lists from all intramural managers in order that the final selections will reflect the over-all choice of the team which played.
Each manager should choose two all-star lineups, a first and second team. He should not name any members from his own club on two teams. Separately, he should list his own most valuable players.
The all-star teams, made up from players getting the most votes for their positions, will be published in the Daily Kansan.

Beliefs Told To Unitarians
"This period of history is torn by conflict between the necessity of scientific thought and the urge for religious faith," the Rev. R. Lester Mondale, All Souls' Unitarian church, Kansas City, Mo., told the Unitarian group Sunday.
"Even the best blueprints have bugs in them which can be discovered only by testing. In religion, we are the bugs. We can only accept the answers to our questions that have the fewest bugs," the Rev. Mondale said.
"In biographical research, I found that when persons believed they had achieved salvation, they had actually found their place in society. Mental integrity is important above all."

Baseball Team To M.U. Today
The University baseball team plays its first of a two-game series with Missouri at Columbia today. The second game will be played tomorrow.
The Tigers will be seeking to repeat as title-holder after winning in 1942, the last year of championships in Big Six baseball. They dropped into second place in the conference race last week by losing a two-game series to Oklahoma State. Sooners a completed season average of .636 and first place in the conference.
Missouri can climb back into the lead if they can sweep the series from the Jayhawks. A single victory would elevate the Tigers to .643 and a double victory to .667, while a split would leave them in a .600 tie for second place with Kansas State.
Coach Vie Bradford's men will be out to continue the winning string they started against Nebraska Friday, and hope to sweep the series from the Tigers.
