.Pjf»'e 6 DAILY EMERALD, Tuesday, October 28, 1941 IM Football Playoffs Start Today; Sigma Nu Favored Wfto will stop the Sigma Nus? Today, as ihe six quarter-finalists enter the playsoffs of the 1941 intramural football program, this problem confronts any team that has hopes of grabbing the coveted cup. Led by peerless Dick Whitman and Johnny Bubalo, the Sigma Nu juggernaut has rolled up over 100 points in four games. Strik ing with the speed of a panzer unit, the Sigma Nu attack has steamrollered over every team in their league with amazing ease. Sigma Nus-Phi Delts This afternoon the off-and-on Phi Delts will tangle with the favorites in the top quarter-final tu3sle. In two games this season the Phi Delt squad has looked like champions, but in two other tilts,* regardless of the fact that they won, the team looked like chumps. The passing combination of Hawk Burns to Gabby Gal brealth has been the spearhead of the attack. Galbrealth’s un cawiiity ability to make seeming ly impossible catches will make the Phi Hells a threat at all times. Coupled with his accurate arm, r 'I Penntj-Wise .

Broadway Eugene Burns’ tricky and speedy run ning will give the offense a valu able variation. One of the Phi Delt bulwarks is the rough-tough line. Featuring the diminutive Pete Riley, and flanked by Jim Bennison and Baumgartner, the forward wall should give the Sigma Nus plen ty of trouble before the final gun bangs. Betas-Kappa Sigs In the other game today, the Betas will face the potent attack of the Kappa Sigs. This contest will match two of the fastest backs in the tournament, Scotty Deeds of the Kappa. Sigs, and Bob Parker of the Betas. The Kappa Sigs feature a short passing game letl by Don Cawley. Using Deeds as a spot runner in the crucial moments the Kappa Sigs won all of their games with comparative ease. Bob Duden, Jim Rathbun, and Parker have sparked the Betas to their victories in previous games. I'sing Parker on deceptive reverses and as a flanker on flat passes the Betas have been able to spread the defense enough for the long passes down the middle to be success ful. The winners of these two games will meet the SAEs and the ATOs. These teams drew byes for the quarter-finals. At Second Glance (Continued from page two) the campus when word about the Oregana receiving another All American rating was printed. But yesterday, Willie Bishop received another bit of news. To-wit: ‘ Since the rating of Pacemaker has been discontinued, the Honor Roll of Distinction has been sub stituted in its place. We are hap py to inform you that the 1941 Oregana justifies such a rating.” As an explanatory note, that is the highest rating that any book can receive. Furthermore, the Oregana was the only yearbook from any major school on the Pacific coast to win such acclaim.

O Two Airtight Battles Feature Last Day of League Touchball Two airtight battles featured the final day of play in the reg ular intramural football league yesterday. ATOs nudged the Fijis, 6 to 0, and the Theta Chis sneaked by a fighting Campbell club, 7 to 6. Sigma Nus Swamp Phi Psis, 26 to 0 Sigma Nu’s undefeated and unscored on swamped the Phi Psis, 26 to 0, to establish them selves as favorites in the play offs. Oil the second play of the game Dick Whitman ripped off SO yards to set up the first touchdown. After two passes had been knocked down Whit man dropped back and fired a perfect 30-yard toss to Bill Carney for the touchdown. Held scoreless in the remain der of the first period the Sigma Nus roared back in the second quarter to push across two more touchdowns. Whitman's bullet passes set up the next score. The payoff pass was a short toss to Palmer Fal gren. After smothering the Phi Psi attack the winners took the ball and marched 40 yards for another tally. Whitman’s pass to Shiller in the end zone was the touchdown play. Johnny Mead converted on a pass as the half ended. In the third period the Phi Psi offense clicked momentar ily. After picking up 40 yards on short passes the threat was halted by an interception of a long pass. Throughout the game the Sigma Nu defense nabbed Stray Phi Psi aerials to smoth Not even the California schools could come up to that! YVE WONDER JUST HOW Mary Jane Terry, Pi Phi, got that U.S. infantry towel with the pret ty blue stripe, especially when her father’s in the field artillery. And another thing, all of you who contemplate upon asking pater or mater for an automobile this Christmas had better put in your request now, for by mid-Decem ber, due to the OPM, all cars will roll off the assembly lines minus any chrome or stainless steel trimmings. Even those pretty ra diators will be affected. AND ADDED TO OUR MAIL this morning was this note: Sun day, October 26. Mona MacAu ley, DeeGee pledge, looked gor geous at today’s tea dance in a Burgundy date dress with con trasting accessories. When asked her opinion of Freddie Martin, she candidly replied. "Well, Fred die is good, too!” No doubt she was referring, with touching loyalty, to local boy Art Holman, not herself. Anyway, we'll let you in on Miss MacAuley’s future social activi ties, for the benefit of the wait ing masses, now munching toast and gulping coffee. Another note in the mail lets us know that Bev Tobin (Tri Delt; remember?) and Dale Kae gi (now in the air corps) will re turn to the campus during Home coming. We’re sure that Chair man Russ Hudson will take care of them, or who is on the wel coming committee? ALTHOUGH THIS WAS OVER HEARD during our 11 o’clock, we think that it definitely has its possibilities. He was, as you might guess, a sophomore. With arched eye-brows and a tongued cheek, he asked the girl sitting next to him, "Have you a date for the blackout yet?" The answer, "No, I’d lrve to. But don’t worry; I always carry a torch with me.” Ah, femme fatale! er all of the offensive efforts of the losers. The final touchdown scored in the fourth period on a long pass from Whitman to Stan Skilicorn followed by a 30-yard dash to pay dirt. Carney converted on another of Whitman’s passes. Sigma Nu.6 13 0 7—26 Phi Psi .0 0 0 0—0 Theta Chis Nip Campbell, 7 to 6 Theta Chis battered and bruised defense thwarted a last minute conversion to nip the Campbell club, 7 to 6, in an air tight struggle. After running up a one touch down lead in the first minute of play the Theta Chis were pushed back by an alert Campbell de fense for the remainder of the game. Joe Wicks faded back and flipped a towering heave to Monk Katerman in the end zone for the winning touch down. Three times in the first half the Theta Chis fought their way to the Campbell goal line only to be thrown back. Campbell uncovered a tricky running attack in the dying mo ments of the game to set the stage for their touclfdown. After several reverses had brought the ball to the five-yard line Griffith shot a pass to Way for the score. The attempted conversion was blocked by the Theta Chis. Theta Chi .7 0 0 0—7 Campbell .0 0 0 6—6 ATOs Dump Fijis, 6 toO A1 Rouse grabbed Paul Bocci’s fourth down pass after it had been batted around by the Fiji secondary and stepped across the goal line for the winning touefc down as the ATOs dumped the Fijis, 6 to 0. The freak scoring pass cul minated a 60-yard drive late in the third period. Bocci’s short passes in the flat to Brown and Boone accounted for most of the yardage. The hard charging Fiji line kept passer Bocci in constant trouble throughout the game. Weakness in the pass defense cost the Fijis much valuable ground. A last minute drive by the desperate Fijis almost clicked but a fourth down pass fell iffi complete as the gun sounded.
