Phi Gam's Halt Battenfeld Men Blanks Delts In
Battenfeld's three-game winning streak was halted by the Phi Gam's, the blanks outsugged the Beta's, and Delta Tau Delta nosed out Phi Psi in intramural softball games yesterday.
Phi Gai won its third in a row, after a loss in the opener, as it walloped Battenfeld 13 to 4. Warren Reigle pitched the win, his second of the year.
Phi Fsi and Delt had limited their game by agreement to five innings, but an extra round had to be played before the Delts finally won out 8 to 7. Moffett was the winning pitcher.
The Blanks and Beta's almost went dizzy circling the bases, with the Independents finally winning out 18 to 14. Dreher hit a homer for Beta. VanderWerf pitched for the Blanks and Roderick worked the game for the losers.
Beta defeated Sigma Chi 16 to 11 Tuesday in a game which had been postponed from last week.

'To Repulse Insects - Bl'
To be repulsive to mosquitoes and chiggers, take 30 milligrams of Vitamine B-1, (or thiamin chloride, as it is called by scientists), said Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson today.
Evidently the odor of this vitamin repulses the mosquitoes and chiggers. This relief was first discovered by a Minnesota physician, and was recently prescribed by Dr. Logan Clendening, Kansas City Star columnist.
The vitamin will also relieve itching from poison ivy and bites which have already been procured. It will not, however, prevent poison ivy.
The preventative is not a certain thing, but it has relieved many, and it is certainly worth trying. The cost of a day's dose of 30 milligrams is about 7 cents. The thiamin chloride is not harmful to the user in any way.

"With the invasion actually now under way, the demands on the transportation facilities of the country are increasing, not decreasing," Mr. Johnson explained.
The Red army command announced merely a slackening of enemy attack because of heavy losses near Iasi.
The German rout was continuing and the former German headquarters 40 miles north of Rome have been captured. The flight of the Germans is to the Arno river where they are expected to attempt another stand. The bend in the Tiber river well toward the north of Rome may provide a stopping point.
In Italy the Allies occupied the port of Civitavecchia 40 miles northwest of Rome as the prospect of a Nazi rout grew.
In the Pacific American troops now in possession of one of Bikai island's three airbirds hammered forward toward the remaining two.
