It was the first loss in ight contests for the Sig Eps and left only six all-victorious teams still in action. Sigma Chi. which suffered an early-season setback at the hands of the Sig Eps and which only two days before had oeen inor oughly whacked by Alpha Tau Omega, reached a new peak for their seasonal play. It was their eighth victory in ten games and gave them new nope in tne conr ine nlavoffs. Trailing the favorites for more than three quarters, the Sigs kept the margin close and once they captured the lead, they never cave it back. Both outfits were cold the first half with the exception of Sig Ep Pat Mellette, whose eight counters led the losers to a 20-16 intermis sion lead. Other than Mallette, no one could hit consistently as the Sig Eps maintained a meager margin throughout. The third stanza saw the fa vorites spurt into a seven-point bulge, only to watch the bigs whittle it back to a single coun ter. From a 23-22 Sig Ep advan tage, the two teams battled on even terms with the Sig Eps scor ing first and then seeing the Sigs narrow the count to that one Doint. It began to appear that the Sigs would never take the lead. When trailing one point, they missed shots of all description and when the score was knotted, they missed just as consistently at the free throw line. It was in the la'tter department that it seemed the game would be lost for the Sigs. Ineffectual all the way, they man aged to sink only eight of 26 tosses. Entering the final canto, the Sig Eps were still in the lead by a 28-27 margin. The next three minutes were a repetition of the third quarter as the Sigs bungled every opportunity to grab the lead. The ice was finally broken, however, as Sam Bell hit from the corner to up the Sigs to a 31 30 margin. From that point on, it was all Sigma Chi. Although the Sigs Eps never trailed more than two points until the last minute, the winners appeared stronger and looked capable of withstanding any threat, which they did. Mallette and Bell shared indi vidual scoring honors with 11 while Bill Anderson of the losers was right behind with ten. Davei Brandon notched an additional nine for the Sig Eps and Ben Leonard and Larry Dunning each garnered eight for the winning cause. Meanwhile, undefeated P h i Kappa Psi and Pioneer House, the last two among fraternity "A" out fits, continued to pad their sea sonal records. Phi Psi's Hold String The Phi Psi's rang up their eleventh straight win via a 63-49 decision over Kappa Sigma. There was no question asto the final outcome in this fray although the outclassed Kappa Sigs kept the tally surprising close all the way. The victory gave the Phi Psi's undisputed claims of the league II championship with one game remaining. The loss all but elimi nated the Kappa Sigs from play off action. Four Phi Psi's carried the bulk of their scoring. Bob Bachman led the way with 21 counters fol lowed by Larry Anderson with 18, Don Frei with 11 and Bob Reynolds with ten. Buck Everett topped the losers with 14 count ers, closely followed by Ed Berg with 13 and John Gibbons with ten.

Delta Tau Delta kept its playoff hopes alive with a surprising 35-29 win over defending champion Sig ma Alpha Epsilon. The victory upped the Delt record to 8-6 and placed them only a game behind Phi Gamma Delta in fourth place. It was a see-saw battle all the way until the final three minutes. Both teams owned impressive margins at one time during the fray but neither could maintain them. Going into the fial frame, the Delts sported a 27-26 lead, shaky at this point, but five min utes later they were roaring to wards victory.
