In case you wondered just what
yesterday's column, was talking
about so did we. However, a
story we had written about Pitt's
football prospects was uncermoni
ously divided into two halves, and
you got the second half. First half
now follows:

SAM's beat
Beta's, 6-5,
in softball
Irv Yaffe hurls
winners into tie
for first in league
In intramural softball league
play Wednesday, the Betas, up to
this time undefeated, were over
come by a strong Sigma Alpha Mu
team, 6 to 5. Irv Yaffe pitched for
SAM, while the entire team played
good ball with Norm Bordy lead
ing the hitting and Prostok look
ing the best in the field.
This leaves both the Beta's and
the SAM's with one defeat in their
league. The only other fraternity
game was between the AGR's and
the Phi Psi's. The AGR's, led by
Schnleder, who pitched a two hit
game, ran wild over the Phi Psi's
to the tune of 14 to 1.
