Duck jBackfield Coach John McKay said that halfbacks Eddie Macon and ,/fc.ai McCormick were as good as aoy in the country and were draw Tbig the expert eye of Cleveland JSrowns Coach Paul Brown. The COP defensive unit has held JHardin-Simmons and Loyola to a total of 100 yards lushing, while the offensive platoon has ripped off T85 yards in their wins over Hardin-Simmens by a 33-7 count, s-.id Loyola by a 41-28 mark.

The Tiger passing attack has not played a vital part in the first ! two victories, since it accounted for only ”8 yards in the two con tests. Oregon Coach Len Casanova will not be a stranger to the Stockton school, since he led his Santa C lat a gridders there in 194 i to eke out a j i 21-20 victory over COP.

Alert and hard-driving defenses stayed an important role though as seen by the majority of low scores. ; in perhaps the roughest scrap of the day, Sigma Nu pounded its viay to a 2-0 triumph over Alpha Tau Omega. For three periods, neither team could score, but then the Sigma Nus hit paydirt and were neveT caught. Midway in the fourth quarter, ltich Terjeson broke through the ATO forward wall and nailed Bob Ward in the end zone for a safety. That score doesn’t tell the whole .story, though, for earlier in the game, Joe Segura inppeu a yard aerial to Terjeson for a Sigma j Nu TD, only to have it called back on account of unnecessary rough ness. ATO Hollis I,ine They threatened again in the third quarter, but a Stout ATO de fense held the line for four downs on their own 7-yard line. The highest score of the day was posted by Gamma Hall in its victory over Alpha Hall. Led by Bill Nikkelson, star tailback, the Gammas piled up 28 points while holding their opponents scoreless. One way or another Nikkelson was responsible for every tally. Early in the first half, he passed to Chan Sogge for the initial TD, and then to John Gamiles for the extra point. Sederstrom Wins Sederstrom Hail kept its win streak alive with a 6-0 triumph over Hunter Hall. The victors countered early in the first quarter on a pass play from Howard “Lefty” Page to Pat Ford. Previously, Page had completed three straght aerials to set up the touchdown play. The try for conversion was no good. After that quick scoring spree, the Hunter de fenses stiffened and the fracas turned into a knockdown, drag-out defensive tussle. Another high-scoring game was the Kappa Sig-Tau Kappa Epsilon contest. The Kappa Sigs combined passing offense and top-notch de fense to down the Tekes 19-0.

It was the [ second time this year the Negro j outfielder had stolen home. The Giants scored no more until, Dark dumped his drive Into the I left field stands in the sixlh inning, but the way Koslo was whipsawing the Yankees, runs were a surplus commodity. The Yankees scored their only run In the second inning when Gil McDougal cracked a double to left and moved to third on a single by Coleman. When Thompson hobbled the ball for an error, he came home. It would have i>ren an unearned run but a subsequent single by Pitcher Reynolds took the onus off Thompson. The big Giant sixth Inning Just put the string around the victory package that Koslo wus wrapping up. Catcher Wes Westrum slrffcled with one out to start the rally. Koslo moved him along with the first of two neat sacrifice bunts. Kddie stanky drew a walk. Not that it mattered in the light of sub sequent developments, lint the Yankees just missed picking West- | rum amt Stanky off base, Westrum on the fourth hall to Stanky when he was slow returning to second, and Stanky after he took a fat lead off first.

He’s got guts enough to stand up for his pitcher against the whole opposing team. But this kid has more than guts! He has grasped one of our very oldest American traditions—that men and women have the right to be judged on the basis of their individual merits. Being “foreign” is noth ing against an individual—nor is his race— nor is his religion. It’s up to each of us to keep disunity from our families, our community and our country. Make sure that you are not spreading rumors against a race or a religion. Speak up, wherever you are, against pre judice, and work for better understanding.
