Last night after points made in the first day of the two-day
meet had been tabulated, it was found that the Blanks were leading the field with $ 33\frac{1}{4} $ points. They had gathered 22 points in running events and $ 13\frac{1}{4} $ in field events.
Phi Delt's Are Second
In second place with $14\frac{1}{2}$ points was Phi Delta Theta, only a half point ahead of Delta Tau Delta and Sigma Alpha Epsilon. If the Delta Tau's had even qualified one man in a field event they would be in second place by a half point.
The first completed event was a close medley relay which Delta Tau took in the fast time of 3 min. 39.4 sec. Sigma Chi finished a close second, only 5 of a second behind the winners. The Blanks finished third and the Phi Gam's took fourth.

Take Me Out to .. Major Leagues Obtain Good Talent From Minors
Don't ask who they are, be words out of your mouth they w Don't ask. Let me try to mention it in a vague, casual sort of way while uncle whiskers isn't looking. The National League, for instance.
By LAWTON CARVER
Take the Boston Braves—and taking them is something practically everybody does if you will permit the reminder. They have a gent named Charlie Red Barrett who, at Syracuse, led the entire International League last season in pitching victories with 20 against 12 defeats. He, in fact, was the only 20-game winner in the circuit.
New York, (INS)—War or no war, the major leagues have come up with some sparkling good talent out of the minors for the start of the 1943 season.
They also have Johnny McCarthy, who at Indianapolis, lead the American Association in runs batted in with 113, or a few more than the Brooklyn Dodgers or New York Giants ever thought he could get across the plate in the days when he played with them. He also led in total bases.
The Braves also have, of course, in the person of Jim Tobin, the pitcher who hit more home runs than any other pitcher last season and in him the pitcher who lost more games than any other, but we will skip that remembering that in Ernie Lombardi they also have the National League batting champion if he decides to come back again. The Brooklyn Dodgers
The Boston Braves
The Dodgers will present, as erstwhile minor league leaders, Country Olmo, the batting champion of the Piedmont League—and the champion in most other hitting departments—and Roberto Ortiz, the
Cuban acquired from the Phils, who was the Southern League leader. The Chicago Cubs
The Chicago Cubs will present Kewpie Barrett, who led the Pacific Coast League in earned runs with a 1.72 figure and with 27 victories, the most won by any pitcher in any league last season. They also have Whitey Platt, whose .395 batting average made him tops in the Three-I League.
The Cincinnati Reds
The Cincinnati Reds don't have much to offer in the way of minor league brilliance, unless you want to take Charlie Brewster, who at New Orleans stole 29 bases to lead the Southern Association in that department, besides hitting .301. The New York Giants
The New York Giants had Johnny Mize as the National League runs batted in champion to go along with the minor league stars but seemingly have lost him to the draft and now are concentrating on a number of others. There is Vic Bradford, an outfielder, for instance, who was the big man at Jacksonville in the Sally League with a batting average of 342, plus leadership in runs, total bases, doubles, triples and homers and a tie for runs batted in.
The Giants also have Bobby Combs, who won 17 against 11 defeats at Jersey City and turned in a 1.99 earned run average -in further perpetuating the baseball name
