To speed up the handball doubles tournament, Coach Kanehl has advanced some of the teams on the chart, giving them victories by default.
Thus the Jerry Simpson-Bill West Beta handball team is advanced to a spot in the finals, and in the upper cracket another Beta team, Howard Joseph-Bob Neustrom is placed in the semi-finals, to be matched with the Phi Delt team, the John McShane and McGuckin.
This makes the doubles tournament look like the singles contest did at the end. Playing in the singles semi-finals were one Phi Delt, John McShane, who went on to win the title, and three Beta's, West. Howard and Simpson.
McShane beat West, 21-6, 21-11, and Simpson defeated Joseph in two out of three, 12-21, 21-8, 21-2. In the finals, McShane took three straight, beating Simpson 21-9, 21-7, 21-11.
Beta's Lead Bv 9.9 Points
If the McShane-McGuckin team defeats the Joseph Neustrom combination the issue will be another Beta-Phi Delt contest. Beta's Lead By 9.9 Points
Significance—Beta and Phi Delt are the leaders, in that order, of the entire intramural program, and Beta is only 9.9 points ahead of the Phi Delts.
The golf turney remains only half played, mostly because of the weather. There are still three first round matches and one qualifying match to be played. The first round matches are Bill McGarry, Sigma Chi vs. Marsh Fryar, Phi Psi; Jerry Simpson, Bimpa, vs. Charles Aylward, Phil Delt; George Waitt, Phi Gam, vs. the winner of the Jack McEvers (Beta)-Jack Miller (Phi-Psi) qualifying match.
Atkinson Is In Quarter-Finals
These matches, when played, will complete the quarter-final pairings in the upper bracket. At present one of the quarter-final positions is filled by R. J. Atkinson, who beat A. L. Chase, Beta, and Harold Warwick. Phi Delt, in qualifying and first-round play.
The lower bracket semi-final match is set up between Kirk Scott, Phi Delt, and Bill Chestnut, Phi Psi.
Point scores for the one A-league and four B-league softball teams that have completed league play are now posted on Coach Kanehl's chart.
Oldham's Oldsters. A division, earned a score of 85.6 points. In the B division the Blanks lead with a point score of 150, Kappa Sigma is second with 139.1, the Phi Psi's third with 107 and Pi K. A. fourth, 96.3. Chicago Teams Slipping
Chicago teams in both the major leagues started the season with the best prospects in years but since their first bright showings seem to be slipping.
This is especially true of the third place White Sox who were slowed down considerably in their recent tour of eastern American league games. In their last 15 games they have won only four.
The sox returned home this week to Comiskey park and a four-game series with the league-champion St. Louis Brown's hoping that their slump can be overcome.
The fifth place Cubs are in a series with the St. Louis Cardinals this week and will return home Friday to fill in a scheduled open date with the Cincinnati Reds, one of the National league teams that is farther down on the list than the Cubs.

"BEYOND THE PECOS"
San Francisco-Although posing as a neutral, Sweden, with the approval of the Allies, secretly armed the Danish underground army in defiance of German aggression, a Danish delegate to the United Nations conference revealed yesterday.
Sweden Helped Arm Under Neutrality Pose
Erik Husfeldt, professor of surgery at Coopenhagen university, told in detail how his underground fighters were supplied with arms. He said Swedish ships met plucky little Danish fishing boats off the Swedish coast and gave them cases of automatic pistols.
He said Sweden manufactured the arms under agreement with the United States and Great Britain, and that he made arrangements for shipments during a 14-day visit in Stockholm last summer. More than 3,000 automatic pistols and ammunition and thousands of hand grenades were provided the Danish army of 43,000 patriots.

A small Negro with white hair, glasses aiding his twinkling eyes, a soft voice, a smile that says he gets a lot from life, is John A. Porter, custodian of the city library for the past 40 years.
Mr. Porter, called Jack by his friends, celebrated his 40th year with the library Memorial day, having held that position since six months after the Carnegie gift was opened.
Working from 7 a.m. until 9 p.m. is a good opportunity for meeting persons and Jack says "I've seen a lot of them come and go, grade school, high school and University students. I remember their faces although I can't recall their names."
Two or three generations remember Jack and look him up when they come back to town. They remember when they were children and he used to scold them for making noise in the library.
He has worked for three head librarians and has seen the enlarging and improving of the library through many years.
'Can't Do Without Him!'
Miss Francis Carter, librarian at the main desk, said, "We all think a lot of him. Just this morning a woman from Wilmington, Del, remarked about the unusually well-kept building."
Jack smiled modestly when accused of being spoiled and said, "It takes a lot to spoil me," but the friendly manner of the librarians showed that the "spoiling" works two ways.
"We can't do without him," Miss Margaret Perkins, children's librarian stated emphatically.
"We all agree that he is indispen-sable," Miss Margaret Daum, assistant children's librarian, added. "He is efficient in answering the questions usually asked of librarians. If somebody calls early in the morning and wants to know how to pronounce a word, Jack looks in the dictionary and tells them." Generations Remember Jack
