Warriors Fall;
Stars Rally to
Smack Comets
By Jay Benedict
Wednesday evening's play in
I-M basketball was hard on an
other of the undefeated, ball
clubs. The Warriors received the
crushing blow to the tune of 34
to 26 from the Philips 33 entry.
Don Strasheim with his eleven
points did all he could to lead
his team to the victory, but he
and his mates were no match for
the eyes of Christiansen and Bob
Clark and their fourteen points
each. This loss left the Warriors
with a 3-1 record and Philips
With a 4-1 mark.
Aggies Romp
As was "expected, the Bee squad
of the Farm House came through
to smash Delta Sigma Phi's Bees
50 to 14. It was Farm House all
the way with no serious opposi
tion from the Delta Sigs.
Watson led the game's scoring
with eighteen points, but he had
able assistance from Valsin, who
potted fourteen points himself.
Don Delli Paoli could not pos
sibly have done anything about
the loss even though he led the
Delta Sig scoring with seven
points.
Phi Delta Phi continued in its
habits of mowing down its op
ponents with their Victim this
time being Delta Theta Phi. The
Phi Delta Phi's ran the score to
45 to 25.
Although Richards managed
eight points, and Roebeck and
Bump hit six each, for the losers,
they were not enough to offset
the balanced PDPhi scoring
punch headed by Wenke with
nine points and Wilson with
eight. Thus Phi Delta Phi still
has a clean record of eight wins
and no losses.
PAD Upsets
Phi Alpha Delta came through
with one of the two upsets of
the evening by defeating the
Alpha Sigs 42 to 39. The first
halt saw the play quite even
with the Alpha Sigs leading 17
to' 16. The third quarter, how
ever, marked the beginning of
the end as the Paddies surged

Kanamlne Vs. Brown
Ted Kanamine, undefeated
Husker sprinter who has smashed
three records this season, will
battle with Bob Brown of I. S.
in the sprints. ,
Brown turned in times of :22.9

the 100-yard free style to beat
the league standards of :23.7 and
:53.8. These times are also under
the Coliseum tank records of :24
and :54.
Another record which is threat

the losers.
Although the City YMCA was
expected to win their game with
the Dusters, the margin of 50 to
20 was not expected. Fourteen
points by Schmidt and thirteen
by Hanson were in this upset of
pre-game expectation.
The Dusters squelched attack

Pope with five points. The Dust

first quarter but began to falter

Independent Shakeup
The Independent division expe
rienced the shakeups of the week.
Not one team occupies the same
berth this week as iV did in the
last ratings. On top of that, three
new teams have drawn a spot.
Last Week's number one team,
Ag Men's Club "A," received its
first taste of defeat and dropped
from first to seventh. The Aggie
conquerors were the Ag College
YMCA "A," Who jump from sev
enth to fourth.
The old reliables, Phi Delta Phi
and Geologists, hold down the top
two spots. Phillips 33 makes the
jump from six to three on the
strength of their conquest of the
Warriors. The Warriors in losing
fall from fifth to sixth.
Stars Jump
The Dorm A Stars jump from
eighth to fifth this week. The
Stars conquered their traditional
foe, the Dorm A Comets, to give
them undisputed first place in
their respective league. The Com
ets, earlier had handed the
Rinkydinks their first defeat. The
Comets enter the rankings this
week in ninth, just behind the
Rinkydinks, who are in eighth.
Another Ag College outfit re
appears in the ratings after a cou
ple of weeks' absence. The Pla
mors capture the number ten spot
this week. They own the only
victory over the Ag YMCA "A."
Fraternity "A" competition con
