The blitzkrieg fea- tured the stellar play of Herschel”! Franks, freshman quarterback who scored two touchdowns. Good blocking, an iron well past; de- fense and the heads up ball pie. '- ing of Sarasin, Lachman, Hersh, Wittenberg and Plotkin set up many opportunities to score. This week the Alpha Sigs will meet Rho Delta Rho, and don’t be sur- prised if the winner of this game decorates its mantlepiece with the ’41 football trophy. Not to be overlooked are the Belts and Phi Kaps. Delta Tau Delta features a powerhouse at- tack with all last year’s regulars, except Umbright, back and ready for action, Sparenberg, Suthers, Creagan, Deiters, and Phillips are mighty patent medicine to any football aggregation. Phi Kappa Sigma has a strong line and shifty backfield. Sparked by Bill Lease the P.K.’s may offer some pretty tough competition.

They have worked very successfully for the first work. The Jr. chem-Jr. FPE game was the wettest game of the week. The game was played in about 2 inch- es of water which covered. the whole field. Thus, a precedent has been set which, requires that games be played irreg‘ardless of weather or ground conditions. 5: >7: is All teams must hand, in a pro gram with available playing times. This is mandatory for everyone whether or not they have handed programs to the in- tramural manager before. This same edict holds for the refs. Milt Pleva cannot schedule games with- out these programs. if the ref- erees can not handle the games they are scheduled for, see Milt. Under the guidance of Book Coach Doc Davey, the hockey team has started to get into training the pleasant way by playing touch football. The turnout has been so successful that the coach has threatened to form a hockey-touch- ball league. e 3k 3!: The Alpha Sigs have a good punter and a whole team of track- men. This is best illustrated by a little incident that happened last TENNlS STALWARTS RETURN TC) EATTLE When the first week in Novem- ber rolls around, the tennis team will convene to the armory for their fall practice. On the basis of last year’s results, this innova- tion has proven of inestimable benefit to the player’s morale and playing skill. Lance (lone Only regular not returning will be former Captain Bob Lange; his absence being counter-balanced by the presence of five returning let~ termen who will compete for the team positions. These men are Captain Mike Schultz and Dick Dunworth, seniors; Earl Sherman, a junior; and Jim Ferguson and Dick Larson, sophomores. Because of this wealth of mate- rial Coach Davey will have a tough time picking out his start- ing squad. Many men have im~ proved over last year and are are pected to have a chance to make one of the five positions. Besides, several “world heaters” in high school are expected to show up from the freshmen group. All Out! Prepare for some sizzling prac- tice sessions during the coming competition at the armory. Manager Dick Hameister com~ merits, “the practice periods will he conducted from 5 to 7 pm. in order that everyone has an oppor- tunity to try out.” Friday. It happened this way. Their punter kicked the ball over the fence. Then, a little neighbor- hood boy made a fast recovery of the ball and played track man down Federal street. But, the Al- pha Sign got their “scotch” up and bolted over the fence (.5 sec- ond) and stretched out their legs. Next scene—Alpha Sigs plus ball. a: v5: 2a ‘Wrcotling and boxing have started their practices. So far, sixty wrestlers and thirty boxers have turned out. The team’s work- outs take place Monday. Wednes- day, and Friday, 4-6. More men are invited to come out whether they have participated in these sports or not. #5 >2 511 The sports department hereby issues a challenge to the feature department to play a game of six man touch football. Or, if they can’t get six men, or five men, or four men, or three men, or just Pleva and Minwegen, we will still play them. boys Mons Flor @i’lllllléllfi booson Illinois Tech’s basketball hope- fuls had their first official hobnob last Thursday at the combined basketball and track meeting. Coach Remie Meyers, starting his sophomore year as the Techawk’s mentor, announced that practices will be held on Tuesdays and Thursdays in our fifth floor band~ box until November 3, at. which time the 108th Engineer’s Armory will be available for daily practice. Thirty Como (lull After looking over the thirty- odd men who answered the first call, Rennie predicted a good sea- son for the hoopsters. Of these, twelve are returning as major or minor letter winners, and seven are numeral winners from Bill O’Brien’s :frosh squad of last year. Also, there were several transfer students who played basketball for other schools last year. It was on the basis of these figures that Bernie was able to predict a “good season.” Illnothor Trip The Detroit trip, again the high light of: the season, has been to scheduled, and Coach Meyers has once more promised at Saturday night with no strings attached. Those cagers who made the trip to Detroit last year all agree that this four day trip alone is worth all of the hard practice, training, and rigid conditioning that the boys had to go through. Dean Welssman of EDT and “'1‘, as usual, said a few words. He pointed out that by virtue of the large number of veterans and the apparently talented fresh, we stand to have a much better team this year. This, he said, coupled with the fact that we are one of the few schools which. is not hit: by the draft, thus giving us full strength, and the other schools a headache, also gives Tech a po- tentially great team. Howie Holds Hope One very interesting fact to note is that Capt. Howie Pcndlebury who finished last season in a vir- tual tie for scoring honors, made most of his points in the latter half of the season. Last year was “Howie’s” first here at Illinois Tech and he was just a, little shy and self-conscious, but as soon as he became acquainted he really went to town. This year, he will, no doubt, start right in where he left oil“, and play his usual classy brand of ball that he showed us before. Coach Meyers and the team are counting heavily on him and they believe to a man, that he has what it takes; to make a great lead- er of a good team. He wouldn’t be captain if this weren’t so. Sophs llltart Siirsgin’ Two sophomores who are ex- pected to furnish a lot of competi- tion to their big brothers on the varsity are “Slingin’ ” Danny O'Connell, Bill O’Brien’s captain of last year, and Bob Kidd a coop with plenty of class. They are both tall, rangy lads who know their basketball inside out. Starting tonight, the whole gang will be out there working hard for HT and Remie Meyers, who is a swell fellow and a grand guy to play for. He proved his capa— bility as a coach last year when he moulded a good hard driving unit out of a literal scrap heap of material. This year, he has scv~ eral fine men returning along with a very good crop of new men, and we don’t see why he shouldn’t turn out a winning team—perhaps one of the greatest teams in re- cent years.
