interclass Tourney Gains
Wide interest

Following the practice inaugurated
by Coach Kratl't in 1925, another
baseball tournament will he held this
fall. Strange to say the last time
such an event was held, the lowly
freshmen took everything into camp
and won the inter—class title. The
freshmen, this year as they were
then, are an unknown quantity. In—
cidentally, this tournament is one
means of getting a line on new ma—
terial and the hopes of the coach are
that Ogden Field will see many prom-
ising aspirants to the Varsity nine.

The first game in this event will
see the freshmen and sophomores to»
gether. This game is scheduled for
Sept. 28. As yet, the battery assigm
ments have not been given out but
there has been considerable enthus-
iasm developed and it promises to be
a lively affair.

The juniors and seniors, however,
will have strong lineups. Simpson
will furnish the fireworks for the jun-
iors while Augustine and Yount will
be seen in action on the rubber for
the seniors. Simpson, by the way is
last season’s pitching ace and says
he is well provided with an array of
curves for his senior opponents. The
seniors will present a real lineup with
four or five letter men from last
year’s team. Gent, Yount, Augus
tine, and Edstrand will occupy their
old pOSitions. The junior-senior
game is scheduled for Oct. 1.

The winner will play the winner of
the freshman-sophomore ailair for
the title on a later date.

REPQRTER

Question: Why did you come to
Armour?

Ralph Lake, ’32: “I have a rela-
tive who came to night school here
and he got me interested in it. Also
I can go home at night by coming
here, while at a school farther away,
I wouldn’t be able to.”

 

 

 

Vic Taylor, ’32: “I had heard of
Armour’s reputation and the talk by
the Armour professor that came to
Lane to tell us of Armour. All ar—
chitects spoke highly of it.”

 

James Hruska, ‘32: “Armour was
recommended to me by men who
knew the school and the men it
turned out. I personally thought that
I could get the best course available
in Chemical Engineering at this
school.”

 

David Balkin, ’32: “Armour was
recommended to me by one of its
graduates. I found that Armour rat~
ed about the third best and was the
closest of these three engineering
schools. Some of the courses at
school personally appealed to me.”

 

Salvatore Scavuzzo, '32: “I had
heard of the achievements of Armour
men and talked to some of the grad—
uates. I knew Armour rated high
in the standing of technical colleges,
and to convince myself I came down

With the opening of the school
year everyone looks forward, to the
basketball season. The first game
on the schedule 15 only a tow months
in the future, and, according to (.3. ll.
Johnson, business manager for the
quintet, the prospects for an interest—
ing series or games in this year's
cook are very good.

The team will be coached by Bill
Kraut, who is also Director of Phys-
ical houcation here. The first call
101‘ candidates Will be 1n November
and all men with'basketball ability
are requested to come out and try
tor the team.

The prospects for the coming sea-
son are good, as there will be three
letter men back to form a nucleus.
aohnny lvlanz, the captain-elect, will
be back to guide the play of the boys.
Last year Johnny was used in many
encounters and always played a sterl—
mg dexensive game. Augustine, an.-
otner veteran of three years play,
Wlli be back to carry much 01 the
l‘echs’ onense and to break up the
attack of the vnnting teams. Last
year Augustine was 1n a 1ew of the
early games but because of illness
was Iorcccl to retire.

Another letter man on the court
will be hing; Simpson, a man of two
years’ experience. Simpson last year
alternated at forward and center,
playing a flashy, scoring game.

'1 here are many others who have
last year’s experience to profit by
and they will be back ready to fight
lor their respective berths. Among
these men are Rowley, Fee, Ewing,
ctt, Setterburg and Malm.

one. Immediately upon the chair—
man’s call for nominees about half

the floor was given to the right men,
and the nominations were made and
closed in rapid order. Only one bal-
lot was required on each vote. The
meeting was very well attended, with

fishers bluish The
iiirst finalisation
(it Tourney Today

The first round of elimination in
the golf team’s annual tournament
ends today with sixteen men one step
nearer the top and sixteen others just
stepping rather aimlessly around. If
all goes well the final match will take
place on or before October 16th, the
exact date to be determined later.

 

Among the thirty-two original
signers there appeared several names
prominently associated with Armour
tennis and baseball. The former
should remember that the game is
played on a course and not a court
and that an underhand swing is prel-
erable to an overhaud, backhand or
what-have-you'! Those baseball men
who bite at the high ones should keep
it in mind that the object of the game
is to hit the small white ball at their
feet straight into center field, and
that if it goes into the rough it is not
a foul ball and they are not there-
fore entitled to another swat free of
charge.

Finally, all those who wish in win
should remmeber that no matter how
badly, widely, or deeply it’s sliced,
it’s still baloney.

Golf is being captained this year
by Hank Christiansen, with Prof.
C. W. Leigh as Faculty Adviser.

Harris and Elis Klingeman defeated
Jennings and Brown for the doubles
title, {L2, 1—6, 6—4, 6—4.

in addition to his tennis prowess,
Jennings has won two letters in base-
ball, was a member of last year’s bas-
ketball team, and is a member of the
Honor “A” Society.

 

 

 

The class also voted in favor of
Senior Jackets for wear around the
campus. The jackets decided upon
are a form of coat-sweater similar
to those worn by the Junior Week
marshals. The price of each jacket
will be about $7.50, and must be
paid for individually by the students.

The use of the jackets by the Sen—
iors is a new idea at Armour, though
very common in other colleges. The
subject was first brought up at the
end of last semester and was tabled
at that time. With the Seniors wear-
ing sweaters they will be easily dis—
tinguished by the lower class men,
so that more prestige will accompany
that high position. A '29 will be let~
tered on the left pocket in gold letr
ters, while the rest of the sweater
will be black.

tures that attracted me. During my
last year I heard much of Armour
and what it means to be an Armour
man.”

A great commotion was noticeable
last Tuesday in the Faculty out}.
and when the reason whereof was
inquired into it was found that on’n’ ,
John J. Schommer had left of? elabew
rating on ions, electrons, etc”. and
had scored a technical knockout with
his first attempt at “True ’Story’
narrative concomingwnot football,
but fishing tackles. John had a lot
to say, as it was his first appearance
at the Institute since he was 123‘;
here. His stories at the Club gradtb
ally sapped the reserve strength of
his listeners, when he finished with:
this epic of the great open places,
scapes, or something. It seems that
John was fishing when he felt 2. tug
at the line. Knowing that this meant _ ’
that there was perhaps a crab, turtle,
weed, or maybe a fish at the other
end, John lifted up his pole and
found that he merely had a pike on ” L
the hook. Like all real fishermen,’ _
he shook the pike off, since this spe— 1
cies of fish isn’t relished when res.
taurants are near at hand. Dis-
gusted with his rotten luck, he began
reeling in his line, when one, two,—
no FIVE pike made a grab for the
hook!
