Moreen; Metered; Mesh incline hovered; colony hurts: Moreen By ‘Miclmy’ Fitch After many weeks of forecast» ing and anticipation, the intra— mural touchball season has opened. Many of the teams will now be deflated with other teams showing startling sextets. So far, the Jr. chems, Jr. FPE, Jr. mechs, and the Sr. civiis have shown their gladiators in prac- tice. The Sr. civils honestly be- lieve that they are the dark horses in the race. Jr. chemo and Jr. FPE seem to be evenly matched. The Jr. mechs have a last book field and weight in the line. They may really be the team to «catch. Soph chemo have good material but their inexperience will cause them to lose some games. Mean- while, the Sr. mechs remain “the team to beat” with good passing and running. New Rulings The rules committee met last Friday to decide on the rules. The Spaulding touchball rules cover all instances when not superseded by one of the rules adopted. The kick oil“ will be made five yards from the goal line. The extra point will be run three yards away from the goal. Offsidee will be marked by the edge of the ball diamond and the edge of the wood fence with the cinder trucks marking the goal lines. The oil- sides penalty is five yards, rough- ing the passer fifteen yards, and clipping will be penalized by half the distance to the goal. line from the line of scrimmage. Only one forward pass per play will he al- lowed. if the ball goes over the goal on the fourth down the hall is placed in play ten yards out. The referee’s judgment holds on all plays and any protests must be placed in the hands of the. intramural manager within twen- Ly—four hours of the game. All protests will be decided by 31 rules :ommlttee consisting of the intro rnural manager and the otiiciol referees. The referees are: Dan D’Connell, lvo Buddeke, Robert lidelson, Nate Rainer, Len Schlli» ng, Herb Bay, Harry Heidenrelch, Bob Sundstrom, Morgan Fitch, Bob Bechtolt, Dick Guetzow, Pete Blasco, and Milt Pleva. There is still room for four refs. Seniors Beul- J uniore 54.2 in Hardball Meet This last Wednesday, Oct. 8, on )gden field, the senior and junior angineers met in the age-old com- ietitive game of hardball. Rivalry lies in evidence as the seniors set lack the boasting junior team by a score of 5 to 2. The Seniors, led by Mike Carey, ield their opponents to a one lit game. Had the juniors re- ’rained from committing so many errors, the score probably would lave been 1-0 in favor of the 3arey men. Outstanding in events through- lut the five-inning game was a louble play in the third. A ball )atted to Behrens, shortstop who posed to Seig, 2nd, and relayed to Earth 15:, completing the play. This certainly gave the seniors l right to boast of n- peppy aggre- ration. Femaitis and Martinek captured lOIlOl‘S as noise producers and :tars for the unlucky, uncondi- ioncd juniors. .ir. WE, .lr.

II did. . . .” And so on ad infinitum as the Jr. firemen and the Jr. chemicals tangle on the muddy flats of Ogden field. These two teams are entering the third year of their feuding in football, base hall, and the other gentler sports. After having suffered through such tortures as freshmen year and then BBF’S organic chem, these boys feel some kinship. (Your erstwhile scribe is writing with one hand after being the vic- tim of some of this kinship.) Those cocky lode who call them. selves the FPE’s were boasting about their prowess as football players to themselves when up walked a pugnacious chem and deflated the boys by challenging them to a tournament of touch tackle. Last Tuesday these two teams tangled, and by virtue of ti timely snatch by Shel Plotkin the chemo nosed out the fire extin- guishers 1%. Not to be outdone the E‘PE’S chollcnged the chemo to a return latch. 0n li‘riday be— fore o cheering throng of two spectators the lPPE’s scored early in the second quarter and held the chemo scoreless for the rest of the game. This smoothed the tempers of both teams and thus they parted friends. Out of a clear sky suddenly up- peered a bolt of lightning that jolted hoth teams. intramural manager Milt Pleva had scheduled these two teams for the first {notch oi" the touch boll tourney. Suddenly the friendships stopped and rivalry again flared strongly. to this article goes to press the opposing teams are planning straw tcgy for this nil-important game (an tenet to them). By this time you probably will know the rc~ suits of this slaughter. Golly, l with l was; a prophet. ilind "'lifitlfltliinti. Sfidfit’ll‘i STARTS intramural sports began last west: on the 'west side campus when thirty-five men reported for touch football. Coach Grant Stcn- ger plans to organize a league of five teams who will play to de- cide the Liberal Arts college championship. The players on the championship team will receive medals and will play the engineer champions for the school title. Grunt Tells ’Em Lust Tuesday at the athletic meeting Coach Stenger explained rules and regulations of playing touch football at UT. He proposed a- formaiion of a five-team league. The teams will play each other twice and the winner of the tournament will be decided by number of wins and losses. In addition to scheduled L. A. league games, encounters with the south side campus will be scheduled. Come Out! Coach Stenger explained that arrangements have been made for students participating in these contests to be excused from their classes. He also explained if any injuries are received while play- ing touch football first aid will be given, and further treatments for wounds are not the responsibility of the school.

H?&GE NEW Immmmmmmm ilovoyrnen fittest ”tonight; Mort itcicitey honours Beginning preparation for this season’s hockey games, “Doc” Harold Davey, has ordered the first, skull practice of the season-m to be held tonight at 5 pm. in U2W oi‘ the south campus student union. This represents the first aggregate effort, this year, to groom a well. balanced, efficient team out of a group which, last winter, was. somewhat lacking in smoothness. This gave rise, then, to oil-timing on attack and, at times, poor coordination on do tense. Coach Davey is prepared, as never before, to give the team. some basic hockey to work over. For, to use his own Words, “the literature on the sport is really basic,” and Davey has been doing considerable research in the field, and plans to attend Blaclchawl: games, together with the whole team. [ileum Conditioning Though team skull practice com~ prises the first group effort in preparation for the season, the boys have been working out at touchbnll and track. to condition themselves for a tough season ahead. A season including two games against Notre Dame, two against Chicago, and as many on can be arranged with the South West Falcons and the Lake ll'or~ est City teoirn. The team will. also play any other topmotch amateur teams with Whom games can be booked. Mist Youth Town itc‘tume All of last year’s men are re- turning to form a sturdy founda- tion for this year's aggregation. Those returning are: George Murdock, George Craw- ford, Brian Brown, and Jack Em litt at the wings; 1311].

Since skull practices are not sufficient means for the building of a good team, arrangements are under way to get the South West Falcon rink at 55th and Kolin (4300 west). If all turns out as hoped, the rink will be shared as a home rink with the South West Falcons. The rink is regulation size, and there is a very good chance that lights for night play will be installed. All men interested in making the hockey team this year should report to skull practice tonight. Repeating: 5 pm. in UZW. McCullough, Barry Co~Coptoin ’42 Track Unique among captains are the HT track captains, Richard Barry and Wayne McCullough. Both are listed among the select group of married men of the Armour campus. Coincident with this unu usualness is the unusual ability of Wayne and Dick on the cinder track.
