Stan Ray, Delts, Fijis, Phi Psis, Sigma Nu, Chi Psis Win IM Tilts By Jack Clement phi psi, Stan Ray. Chi Psi, the Delts, Sigma Nu, and the Fijis outlasted their rivals to notch victories in Wednesday’s IM vol leyball play. The games as a whole were marked by a lack of tram coordination. phi P.si drilled home a 15-3, ...quad from McChesney Hall. The .iPhi Psis found McChesney’s abbre viated team an easy mark and wasted little time in turning in their victory. Chi Psi Wins Three The closest game of the day was 'between Chi Psi and Cherney Hall, with the Chi Psis winning in two sets, 16-14 16-14. Playing with only jfour men, the winners encountered .rough going all the way. The game was highlighted by an unusual -amount of penalties for throwing .and flopping the ball. The score see sawed back and forth and was tied at 14-all in both sets, accounting rfor the 16-14 scores. In the third game of the after moon, the Fijis downed Hunter Hall, 15-9, 15-4. Both teams were ragged and the game was a wild and wooly affair. The winners proved to be the superior club and finally pull , ed away to emerge victorious. Stan Ray Okay Stan Ray chalked the fourth vic tory of the afternoon up by defeat ing Merrick Hall, 15-6, 15-11. Both squads fought bitterly, but in the end Stan Ray proved a little too much for the Merrick men. Stan Ray belted their way to an easy win in the first set but had a battle on their hands to down Merrick in the <dosing stanza. Only two games went the full three-set route. The first was be tween the Delts and Nestor, with the Pelt boys emerging on top of the heap, 15-9, 9-15, 15-7. The score .frequently -changed and at one ■ipoint in the last set Nestor had a 7 0 lead. The Delts, not to be denied, .came roaring back to take the rub ber set. Sigma Nu Uses Pull The last game of the afternoon found Signnf Nu and the Sig Eps facing each other across the net. Sigma Nu, although extended to •three sets, finally won 1-15, 16-14, iH-3. The Sig Eps blasted the Sigma -Nus off the court in the first set and appeared to be an easy winner. fBut the Sigma Nu’s pulled them selves up by their bootstraps and •won a hardfought 16-14 second bat tle. The final set was an abbrevi ated affair, with the Sigma Nus ,forging ahead, 8-3, to win when the .game was called due to the time ikmit. 15-5, victory over a three-man Drake Back Tops Offense NEW YORK -—(.S’)—Defending champion John Bright of Drake is so far ahead in college football s individual offense race that the question now is: Will he break the season record? The agile 200-pounder has run and passed for 1,516 yards in 6 games this season, nearly 500 ahead of Bill Cox of Duke in sec ond place. Threatens Sinkvvich Mark Bright needs 672 yards in his remaining three games to better the all-time mark of 2,187 set by Frank Sinkwich of Georgie in 1942. At this current pace, the Fort Wayne, Ind., junior may pass the record in the next two games against Detroit and Bradley—if not, then in the finale against Iowa State. His average of 252.7 yards a game also is well* ahead of the 221.3 mark held by Stan Heath of Nevada since 1948, the National Collegiate Athletic Bureau said Tuesday.

Duck Aces Reshuffled As New Deal Sought Jeff Liked By Officials LOS ANGELES—(fP)—Football Coach Jeff Cravath of the Univer sity of Southern California admit tedly is under sharpshooter fire for his losing team but Tuesday he en joyed support from all official sources. Athletic Director Willis O. Hunt er and the presidents of the Tro jan Alumni Association and the student body rallied to the defense of Cravath, his staff and the team after a rumor was published re garding purported “secret meet ings” of unrest on the USC cam pus. Hunter blew down -the report by saying, “It is my opinion that the same students and alumni who sup ported the school in victorious sea sons will show their colors by standing by the coach, team and the University until we are again successful.” Zags Prepare SPOKANE — iJP)— A 30-man Gonzaga University boxing squad opened training this week for a defense of its co-hold on the na tional collegiate ring crown. The Zags tied with Idaho for the NCAA title last spring. Matches already are slated with Wisconsin, Michigan State, Idaho and Washington State. Addition al cards are being planned. Coach Jim Aiken shutnea ms lineup again in a final attempt to right the staggering Ducks before they collide with Southern Califor nia’s Trojans Saturday in the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. Earl Stelle will be back at the controls of the Oregon machine af ter giving way to sophomore Hal Dunham for most of last week’s St. Mary’s game. He will guide a back field which will have Tommy Ed wards and Ron Lyman at the half back posts and Carl Ervin at full. The Webfoots went through their second scrimmage of the week yes terday afternoon. Aiken was far more satisfied with yesterday’s re sults than with Tuesday’s scrim mage. The decline in Oregon’s football fortunes can be traced from last year’s ESC game when the Ducks went down to the tune of a 10-13 thumping. Ep until that one they had won 19 and lost 3 over a three year span. Since the Trojan debacle they have been able to put only fy game in the win column while los ing nine. Bob Anderson, first string right tackle, will be sidelined Saturday with a shoulder separation. He will be replaced by Gus Knickrehm, who will also play on defense. Ray Lung will also do double duty at right guard, replacing Chester Daniels on offense. Stelle, Edwards, and Dick Daugherty will all be in on of fense and defense.
