Two more intramural basketball
powers dropped from the elite list
of the undefeated Thursday night
as Phi Kappa Psi and the Lu
theran Student Association were
slapped down in the second round
of the I-M cage playoffs. The de
parture from championship play
of these two outfits left but two
all-victorious teams still in con
tention for the All-University
crown.
The Ramblers and Pansies, two
Independent aggregations each
won their second-round struggles
to keep their records unblemished.
Top-rated Phi Kappa Psi, a
bridesmaid but never a bride for
the last three years, found their
Dlavoff iinx again too high to
hurdle as their 13-game winning
streak was shattered by Sigma
Chi, 47-41. Leading the last cage
ratings with the Ramblers, the
Phi Psi's couid do nothing right
and were no match for the hot
Sigs.
It was the third straight year
for the Phi Psi's to enter the
playoffs undefeated and then fal
tering. In 1951 upstart Sigma Nu
turned the tables in the first
round while last year Sigma Al
pha Epsilon turned back the Phi
Psi's on. their way to the All-U
title.
In Thursday's contest, the losers
held their only lead at 5-2 with
five minutes gone on Duane Ran
kin's fielder and three free-throws
by Bob Reynolds. The tide quickly
changed as Sig Sam Bell con
nected on three straight from the
corner and Larry Dunning hit
from underneath to push the win
ners into a 10-6 quarter lead.
Sigs Lead Early
The Sigs appeared to be on their
way to a rout as Bell opened the
second canto with two more loop
ers and Carr Trumbull added an
other to push them into a 16-6
margin. Bob Bachman finally
found the range for the Phi Psi's
to narrow the gap, but the Sigs
countered to nolrl a 20-9 bulge at
one time and 21-10 a second later.
A quick flurry closed the margin
to 16-22 at halftime, but the Phi
Psi's appeared lost already.

the Sig Eps continued to blast the

without Ron Smaha, however.

If more than five are men

team. All teams and managers are
asked to vote for ten men.
Ballots should be sent or
brought to the sports desk in The

basement of the Student Union by
March 17. Teams that have al
ready finished their seasons should
vote immediately while those still
in contention should hold off their

Four teams will be named, one

Tabulation will be on a percentage
