All-University back Dick Grant paced the Delts to their romp over the Cornhusker Co-op by complet ing 19 of 24 passes for a phenom enal aerial barrage against their opponents. Ray Mladovich and Leonard Lingren turned up on the receiving end of the Grant passes for two touchdowns apiece. In the Ftji conquest of the Theta Chi's there was no apparent threat to the Phi Gam scoring machine. The Theta Chis managedl several notable gains but could not muster up the final drive to score. In another IM contest the sledd ing was a little rough.' An extra point meant the difference of keep ing Phi Delt hopes alive for a title bid.
