The Frosh-Soph Tug-o'-War will get under way this Saturday at 1:3)-p.m. This will be the first pull of theevent, the second and third pulls ofwhich will be held on Field Day. Thewinner of the single pull will be pre-sented with the Purple Shaft by Sen-ior President Chan Stevens '55 antiJunior President Oliver Johns '56. Thewinner of the pull, and hence theShaft, must make at least one presen-tation of the Shaft to the losing classduring the week preceding Field Day.At least 10% of the losing class mustattend this presentation if it is tocount. No attempt may be made totake the Shaft from the team whichwins it at the Tug-o'-War until thefollowing day, Sunday, and, regard-less of who has possession of theShaft, it must be kept on campus onthis side of the. river, and not in adormitory or fraternity room. Compli-ance with this regulation will bechecked by an impartial upperclass-man. The Class which enters FieldDay in control of the Shaft will re-ceive one point in the scoring.

A touch football game will be heldimmediately following the Tug-o'-War,the winner of same to be awardedtwo points toward the Field Day con-test.

On Field Day itself, immediatelypreceding the Glove Fight, each classwill sing one verse of "Arise Ye Sonsof M.I.T.", for one point. Which ofthe two first verses each class willsing will not be decided until the timeof the contest.

All these new innovations will bereported to Inscomm at a SpecialMeeting on Thursday at 5:00 p.m. inLitchfield Lounge. After heating thereport of Richard Langendorf '56,Field Day Chairman, Inscomm will befree to make any changes in the pro-gram it sees fit. This Special Meeting

Dr. Arthur,41ann,Institute P rofessor,1sAuthor Of Book

! Boston is the setting for a uniquehistorical study, entitled "Yankee Re-formelrs," published yesterday by theHarvard University Press.

! The study is an analysis of socialreform thinking in Boston from 1880

i to 1900. Its author, Dr. Arthur Mann,~ Assistant Professor of History at the

Institute, traces the origins of reformthinking to the character of the Bos-

s ton community.i Professor Mann also attempts to! show that Boston continued to be a: center of liberalism after the age ofi Emerson and to prove that moderna liberalism owes its beginnings to the

!city as well as to the farm.Professor Mann develops his thesis

through close biographical study ofBostonians'of the period. His historyis the history of Protestant, Catholic

:"and Jewish religious leaders; of pro-'lessors, students and free lance in-?teilectuals; of trade unionists andi feminists. All Boston is here.

Boston educational institutions play-> ed their part in this period in begin-

ning to break down the renaissanceideal of the gentleman as the cultivat-ed lounger.

?As Professor Francis Peabody of}i~arvard put it: "One cannot justifyeucation today except in terms of

/f-Camzs Htz Pg MYAot.i East Campus House Committee held the first meeting of its entire mem-

bership last Thursday, October 14. The main part of the meeting consistedof a discussion of the proposed motion by Inscomm to change the rules regard-ing off-campus hazing, resulting in two roll-call votes on the matter. A reso-lution opposing any change in the present rules was defeated by a vote of14 to 5, with one abstention; a subsequent resolution supporting the motioncurrently before Inscomm was passed 12 to 10, with one abstention. Thecloseness of the latter vote necessitated a poll of the absent members.

It was also resolved to see what could be done about having two personsworking on the switchboard in East Campus during the busy hours from 4:00

WHAT EVERY YOUNG COED SHOULD WEARGather round, girls. Snap open a pack of Philip Morris, light up,

relax and enjoy that mild fragrant vintage tobacco while Old Dadtells you about the latest camnpus fashions.

The key word this year is casla~l. Be casual. Be slapdash. B~e rakish.Improvise. Invent your own ensembles-like slci pants with a peek-a-boo blouse, like pajamna bottoms with an ermine stole, like a bockysweater with a dirndl.

(Diri-dl, incidentally, is one of the truly fascinating words in theEnglish language. Etymologists have quarreled over its origin foryears. Some hold with Professor Manley Ek that Dirndl is a corrup-tion of Dardanelle and is so named because it resembles the skirtsworn by the women of that region. This theory is at first glanceplausible, but begins to fall apart when you consider that there areno women in the Dardanelle region because of the loathesome localcustom of female infanticide.)

(Another theory is advanced by Dr. Clyde Feh. Dirndl, says he,is a contraction of "dairy in the dell" and refers to the milkmaidishappearance of the skirt. But again close examination causes one toabandon a plausible hypothesis. As every child knows, it is not "dairyin the dell" but "farm~er in the dell", in which case the skirt shouldbe called not dirndl but fl)-nadl.

(There are some who0 contend we will never know the true originsof dirndl. To those faint hearted Cassandras I say, remember howeveryone laughed at Edison and Franklin and Fulton and Marconiand Sigafoos. I Sigafoos, in case you have forgotten, invented thenostril, without which breathing, as we know it today, would not bepossible. I The origins of dirndl will be found, say I, and anyonewho believes the contrary is a lily-livered churl and if he'll stepoutside for a minute, I'll give him a thrashing lie won't soon forget.)

lBut I digress. We were smoking a Philip Mori-is and talking aboutthe latest campus styles. Casual, we agree, is the key word. Butcasual need not mean drab. Liven up your outfits with a touch ofglamor. AEven the lowly dungaree an~d man-shirt comblination canbe made exciting if you'll adorn it with a simple necklace of 120matched diamonds. With Bermuda shorts, wear gold knee-cymbals.Be guided by the famous poet Cosmo Sigafoos (whose brother Samit was whoo invented the nostril) who wrote:

Sparkle, my? beards,Shiunerm and shine,The night is youn7g,Tile air's like wti1e,C-liv7g to a leaf,Haz7i.g on al vione,Crawl *x 1your belly,It's tim}e to diaie.(Mr. Sigafoos, it should be explained, wvas writing about a glow-

worm. Insects, as everyone Knows, are among Mr. Sigafoos' favoritesubjects for poems. Who can ever forget his immortal Ode to a BollWeevil? Or his Tumnblin~g Alon~g EWith the Tumnbling Tumblebug?Or his Fly Genztl~y, Swveet A/l_)id?~ Mr. Sigafoos has been inactivesince the invention of DDT.)

But I digress. We were smoking a Philip Morris and discussingfashions. Let us turn now to headwear. The motif in hats this yearwill be familiar American scenes. There will be models to fit everyheals-for example, the "Empire State Building" for tall thin heads;the "Jefferson Memorial" for squatty ones, "Niagara Falls" for dryscalps. Feature of the collection is the "Statue of Liberty," completewith a torch that actually burns. This is very handy for lightingyour Philip Morrises, which is very important because no matterhow good Philip Morrises are, they're nowhere unless you light them.

We come now to the highlight of this year's fashion parade -a madfad that's sweeping the chic set at high tone campuses all over thecountry. All the gals who are in the van, in the swim, and in theknow are doing it. Doing what, you ask? Getting tattooed, of course!You just don't rate these days unless you've got at least an anchoron your biceps. If you really want to be the envy of the camapus, getyourself a four masted schooner, or a heart with FATHER printedinside of it, or a-

I interrupt this column to bring you a snecial announcement. Arunner has jiust handed me the following bulletin:

"The origin of the word dirndl has at long last been discovered.On June 27, 1846, Dusty Schwartz, the famous scout and Indianfighter, went into the GIolden Nugget, Saloon in Cheyenne, Wyoming.The Golden Nugget had just imported a new entertainer from theEast. She came out and did her chance ;in pink tights. Dusty Schwartzhad never seen anything like that in his life, and he was muchimpressed. He watched wvith keen interest as she did her n~umbers,and he thought abouit her all the way homne. When he got home, hiswife Feldspar was waiting to show him a new skirt she had madefor herself. 'How do you like my new skirt, Dusty?' saidl Feldspar.He looked at the large voluminous garment, then thought of thepink tights on the dancing girl. 'Your skirt is darn dull,' said Dusty.'Darn dull' was later shortened to 'dirndl' which is how dirndlsgot t heir name." !c.N¢?aIDS sitilmmal. 1Z9.4

Field Day, A Coutp d'OeilThe traditional rivalry between the

freshmen and sophomores is undoubt-edly at a level where it can't go anylower. Perhaps the pessimists lookupon the Field Day Glove Fight asBarbarism in its r ebirth. Every In-sti-tution has its traditions and customsand so does MIT. We have to stickto them under whatever opinions andcomments we may get fronp the indi-viduals who look upon them as someanachronisms. For these individualsand the people who think the FieldDay Sports and the Glove Fight is toorowdy and dangerous the followinglines are dedicated.

Field Day originated fromn the CaneRush. Many years ago the Cane Rushwas an annual attraction of Bostonwhich the underclassmen celebratedwith all their vigour and enthusiasm.In the Cane Rush the Freshmen weregiven possession of a cane and wvereobliged to defend it from the Sopho-mores. These Cane Rushes were sched-ailed to terminate fifteen minutesafter their commencement, but thetempo that they, gained usually car-ried them on indefinitely. Eventuallywhen the Cane Rush would lose mo-mentum, the number of Freshmenand Sophomores who had a hand on

The latter held the adultviewpoint that when an individual|would suffer, by missing an exam, orIa few hours study, or by becoming illas a result of the thoughtless conductof a selfish group, that the individualshould be protected; and if he is thetype of individual who desires suchinfantilism, then, just as any infanctmust be, so moust he be prevented fromdamaging himself. It is relatively ob-vious to everyone, and it is most clearto those who seek to pass the amend-ment, that the effect of such a clausewould be to restore a Kul Klux Klansystem of tyranny to power onceagain. Some have said that "if a rideis given in the right spirit and takenin the spirit it is enjoyable, and evenbeneficial!" But, in all fairness, wneask you, and furthermore we ask themembers of Inscomm who yet favorsulch a policy, from 'the vice presidentof that illustrious body right on downto the president of the SophomoreClass§, what spirit and what benefitlies in missing a quiz ? What benefit,what spirit is there in leaving a man,half-naked, out in the middle of theMaine wilds, or in a dark alley ofdowntown Philadelphia! What is thereof value to the victims of such des-potic ogligarchy? We pause for a re-ply, but there can be none.

CAMBRIDGE, MAY 12, (FF): Pro-fessor Francis W.

For that matter, whatwas bundling? Which, in all goodtime, poses the fine old question: Issex there to stay? Or is sex here?Allow me to quote Mr. Webster: 'Bun-die-To occupy the same bed withoutundressing-said of a man and woman,esp. during courtship.' He goes on tosay that the custom, once popularhere, died out in the early eighteenhundreds. Now I regret to say thatI am displeased. It seems to me thatgood things like this come just oncein an every so often. Oh, yes, youeducated beasts out there may pointout that there was a board in themiddle and all that, but it was a stepin the right direction. And now lookat us. Or better yet, don't.

the cane welre counted, and the classwith the greater number of hands onthe cane were declared the victors.An inadvertent disaster brought theCane Rush to an end when in 1900the lifeless body of Hugh ChadwickMoore was embracing the cane. Withthe end of the Cane Rush, Field Daywas introduced where freshmen andsophomores could match their skill atFootball, the Tug-of-War and the Re-lay Race. Twenty-seven years later in1927, the Glove Fight was introducedinto the Field Day program.

Glove FightThe Glove Fight will climax the

1954 Field Day. Two classes will bemade to stand at the opposite ends ofthe football field. Each member of theteams will be given a colored glovethat will identify their class.

And at the end whichever class has the most gloves arethe winners. The participant's searchfor laurels usually leads to the field

being littelred with apparel. ThisGlove Fight is witnessed by crowdsfrom all over Boston who come towatch MIT carry out one of its annualtraditions, and M.I.T. is not going tolet them down.

Score On "Break"Latin, which had held last year's

Boston champs to a scoreless tie earl-ier this week, was unable to scoreoffensively against Coach Dave Scott'55's charges. Their score came on abreak. Midway through the secondperiod the class of '57 got the ball ontheir own twenty yard line and beganto move. With Ken Jones doing mostof the driving, the sophs moved tothe midfield stripe. Then a fifteen yardpenalty set them back to the thirty-five. On the next play, Willie Water-son faded deep to pass. Three bigLatin linemen broke through and con-verged on the Engineer quarterback.As he cocked his arm back to throwhe was hit by two men, and the ballpopped out of his hands and into theair. Joyce, the Boston defensive endtook it and romped the remaining dis-tance for the game's only score. Thetry for point was low.

First Quarter Play EvenThe first quarter play was more or

less even. Bill Salmon kicked off for'57 and Latin returned it to the 35.Ken Jones, backing up the left sideof the Tech line, stopped two playswith clean, hard tackles. The thirdplay started as a pass and ended withthe Boston passer, after having brokenaway from the onrushing Beaver line,being stopped a yard short of a firstdown. MIT got their first break of thegame when the pass from center camelow and B.L.S. was unable to punt.Jones stopped the attempted run, andit was '57's ball on the Latin 38. DonAucamp found the Boston High's linea stone wall as two sallies were stop-ped for no gain.

He may not be able to play forthe rest of the season. Latin movedto the MIT 35 where a penalty setthem back fifteen. Bob Laurence brokethrough to nail the Latin passer. Thefourth down kick was short and Wat-erson returned it to midfield.

Latin DrivesThree plays failed to gain and Wat-

erson kicked high. The ball rolled tothe Boston Latin 10. With Coulon andJohnson carrying, two off-tackle playsand a sweep netted fifty yards and afirst down on the Tech 40 as the quar-ter ended.

Waterson stopped the drive whenhe recovered a fumble on the Tech 25.Then began the ill-fated march. Iron-ically Latin was never able to pene-trate deeper than the Tech 25, andthe sophs never went further thanthe B.L.S. thirty.

Intercept PassJones fumbled the kick off deep in

his own territory, picked it up andfought to the MIT 15. '57 was unableto gain and kicked out. Aucamp inter-cepted a Latin throw, but the play wasruled an incomplete pass when hestepped out-of-bounds. On the nextplay Waterson picked one off on hisown five, but before Tech could starta play, the half ended.

'57 Gridders Bow, 6-0;Fluke Touchdown Decides

There was an upset on Briggs Field Friday. It was not an upset in theusual sense of the word, and few people thought of it as such.

Boston Latin School edged the sophomore football team, 6-0, on a fluketouchdown late in the second quarter. This was not the upset. The upset layin the performance of the sophomore team. For years, class football teamshave been more or less pushed around by their opponents. Nobody was runningall over this team. This is a football team.

The Beaver cross-country squad ranagainst a strong University of Massa-chusetts team Saturday, and came outon top, 25-34. Proving that there'spower in numbers the Tech harrierstook six places out of the first ten,with four men tied for third and twotied for seventh. Ray Smith '56, LarryBerman '55, Bob Solenberger '57, andDave Vaughan '57 all joined hands atthe finish and so were all tied forthird in the good time of 24:05. Ascant twelve seconds behind were StuBengston '55 and Pete -Carberry '57in a dead heat for seventh. Dave Pala-mountian '56 finished a disappointingeleventh but should improve with hiscondition.

Break RecordMassachusetts had two tremendous

runners but little else. Their first manbroke the course record by more thanten seconds and the number two manwas less than a minute behind.

The Frosh raced and lost 17-41. Thescore gives no indication of theirmarked improvement over last weekbut a quick glance at the order offinish does. Four men finished withinfifteen seconds in the nine throughtwelve spots. Couple this with theexpected further improvement of the'58 runners and the picture brightensconsiderably.

Tie Lord Jeffs:PFace Tufts Next

In an exciting, closely contestedovertime encounter, Tech's undefeat-ed soccer team played regional cham-pions Amherst to a 1-1 standstill onBriggs Field Saturday. With Amherstleading 1-0 going into the third quar-ter, Berinie Blaxhitz '55 put the equal-izer into the nets.

Played in RainThe game, played in a downpouring

rain, was without doubt the finestexhibitions put on by a Tech soccerteam in recent years. Amherst waslucky to come out with the tie asmost of the play after the half wasin their territory. Tech put the pres-sure on with a vengeance but neverdid succeed in pulling out the win.

Lecquo StarsThe star of the game for Tech was

center back Jon Lecquo '56 who play-ed a hard driving game. Goalie WaltFiey '66 and Dick Miller '56 alsoshone in what was basically a teamendeavor.

Hopes HighIf the first three games of the sea-

son are any indication, M.I.T. socceris in for one of its most successfulseasons in years. The team will faceTufts this Wednesday at Tufts.

I

in command all the way and wereclearly the better team today. TheATO line, led by big Tony Vertine '57,was rough, but nothing could stop theTheta Chi pass receivers. Althoughhe isn't the best passer we've seenthis year Theta Chi's Dave Scott '55is just what their doctor ordered. Hebobbed and weaved enough to keepthe rushing ATO line just out of reachwhile all the while hitting his endsfor the winning yardage. The T.D.play was a 20 yard pass on which DickRush, '56, made a phenomenal catch.Al Richman and Fred Kissner '57 alsopulled in plenty of Scott passes, andKissner made a practice of catchingATO heaves as well. From here on inTheta Chi should be close to impos-.ible to beat.

DTD-12, Kappa Sig-0Another game that should prove de-

zisive in league standings was theDTD-Kappa Sig section one contest.The Delts gained an emphatic 12-0 de-zision. They were the most beautifullyCo-ordinated team we've seen so far.The main reason for this is the ar-tistry of quarterback Mike Tyrn '5C

to his own 40. A poorly executedqualrtelrbac k option play lost five. Twoplays failed to gain, and Waterson'sshort kick was returned to midfield.Denny MacLain recovered a fumbleon the visitors' 40. Two Vaughnpasses were incomplete and a thirdwas intercepted. Coulon and Johnsonagain combined to drive to midfield;working inside and outside the Techends. A cross buck and a plunge gain-ed nothing, and two incomplete passesmade it MIT ball at midfield. Loringwas stopped but Aucamp drove forfive, and Vaughn, working the optionto perfection this time, went for nineand a first down. Two penalties stop-ped the embryo drive and Watersonkicked to the Latin 37.

Dean Steals BallRain started to fall. Two plays up

_the middle netted Latin a first down.On the next play, Bill Dean pulled theshalrpest defensive play of the game,stealing the ball from the B.L.S. ball-carlrier. This was the first play of thefoulrth quarter. Three plunges netteda scant two yards. On fourth downDon Aucamp took a Vaughn pass inthe flat and dodged ten yards downthe sideline. He drove forward, injur- ing his arm on the play. "Ducky"Dieselman took his place at halfback.Jones spun up the middle for fiveyards. Vaughn swept wide but wasshoved out-of-bounds just as he ap-peared about to break away. A shortVaughn pass was incomplete. Onfourth down Vaughn again faded andthrew perfectly to Kissner in the endzone. The big end went high in theair to gather in what appeared to bethe game-tying score only to have theball knocked from his hands on a be-autiful bit of defensive play by the

Latin safety man.Despite fine defensive play by Dean,

MacLain, Lee Bredbenner and TonyRyan, B.L.S. dlrove to the MIT 25·where Bredbenner recovered a fumble.Jones met a stone wall trying to crashthe middle of the Latin line. Vaughnwas thrown for a four yard loss. Hehit Dieselman with a short pass, butit was fourth and ten. Waterson kick-ed to the forty. Two Latin passes wereincomplete, and a third was good forfifteen yards as the game ended.

Gridders Should ImproveLatin outgained the Engineers ex-

ploiting the inexperience of the MITdefensive ends. The Boston team wasfar more experienced, having hadmonths more of practice and twogames under their collective belt. Thesophomore offense showed a lack ofsmoothness which should improve withthe added polishing of practice. The'57 defense was rather inconsistent,but strong when it had to be. Particu-larly outstanding were Ken Jones, abulwark on defense and a batteringram on offense, Bill Lawrence, hardcharging guard, and his running mateLee Bredbenner. Ed Vaughn at quar-terback showed a lack of smoothnessin his ball-handling particularly inhis execution of the option play, butflashes of fine play indicated that witha little more practice he will improvedrastically. His defense of play wasexcellent. The loss of Bill Salmon wasa severe blow. Salmon, easily theteam's top punter and one of the fewexperienced men on the squad, wascounted on as a power both of ansive-ly and defensively. He may be able toplay against the frosh, but will be un-able to face Tabor this Saturday..

victories in this third week of intramural football as the season rolls up it'ssleeves and roars towards the inevitable bang-up finish.

~~~~i ~Theta Chi WinsI Most important of the fifteen contests played today is probably the Theta

Chi-ATO affair. This one should decide the winner of League four laurels andnlay have decided the Intramural championship. Theta Chi won 7-0. They vere

I . - .whose smoothness is up to big-collegestandards. Their two T.D.'s came onpasses to Ed Holland '57 and "Leaky"Dylce '56. Holland is a velry fast, sure-handed receiver whom we hear is astandout on the Frosh football squad.Kappa Sig threw up a fine defensebut couldn't get anywhere offensively.A lack of a passer is their biggesttrouble.

The third of the "most important'"struggles was the Beta-Buriton Stu-dent Staff game. We picked Bulrtonin what we figured would be an upset,but the Beta's were clearly the mas-ters of the situation. Playing in Sat-urday's rain and mud they used anoffense relying almost completely onthe running of Gordy Nutt '58, andNorry Hersey '55. These boys werecomplimented by an impregnable de-fense and the Betas almost toyed withthe dorm-men keeping the ball in theirterritory throughout the vast majorityof the game. It looks like Beta inleague three.

FiJi In SqueakerIn a hard-fought battle Phi Gam

eked by Baker "A" 6-0. For thirty-three minutes two rock-ribbed de-fenses played each other to a stand-still. The FiJi cause wasn't helped anyby still another injury to the man whoshould be leading their attack, quarter-back Willie Waterson '57. This coupledwith the loss of Tom Hoffman com-pletely crippled the FiJi offense. Fin-ally, with about two minutes of regu-lation time left Fred Culick '56 whois a good passer, put a beauty rightinto the hands of Larry Anders '58,and there was-the-ball game.

Sigma Nu shifted into high gearand rolled merrily on. They subduedTheta Delta Chi 19-0. Each time theyplay they look better and better. Thistime it was Jack Bacon '56 and RogerMackey pitching and Bill Pugh andMackey catching for the T.D.'s. Butthe Sig Nu's proved that last weekwas no fluke, and that they're readyto take on all comers.

ed two T.D. passes to Bard Crawfordand Pete Hohorst '54 and '57 as SAEkeeps winning after their initial set-back by Theta Chi. This week's vic-tims were the boys from Phi MuDelta. We wonder how far the SAE'scan go. Also in league four East Cam-pus got bumped out of competition bya swift moving Pi Lam aggregate. TheEasties were hit hard by injuries inthe Sophomore football game, butthere was no excuse for the 35-0pasting the Pi Lam's handed them.Particularly impressive was JoelParks '58, Pete Bernholz '57 and DickHirschon '57 who compose a speedyand efficient backfield

TEP UpsetWhich brings us to our bi:r~(-'st set-

back of the weekend, the -'Yl)-PhiKappa fiasco. We watched th. TEPboys and were particularly impressedby them; but, as one the victors put it"we didn't see that 'big, experiencedline' you told us about. We rolled allover them." With J. C. Cardinal hit-ting .Art Kouba '58 for a couple ofmarkers and pitching for a total offour T.D.'s the Phi Kappa outfit look-ed like pros playing with babies. Ourdeepest apologies to them for makingthem two T.D. underdogs.

In the most dramatic contest todate AEPi turned almost certain de-feat into stunning victory in the finalnineteen seconds of play. Phi KappaSigma was leading 9-6 with one min-ute left to play. They had the ball ontheir own five yard line. They threwa pass and Milt Ginsburg '57 whoplayed a terrific game, intelrcepted.Two plays later Stu Peltz '55 skirtedend for the game winning score.

Bush Leaguer(Continued from page 5)

test Sigma Chi, looking stronger andstronger, crushed Chi Phi by a 24-0margin. They thereby establishedthemselves as one of the better squadsaround. We should be hearing fromthem in the finals.

Sigma Phi Ep VictorSigma Phi Ep took the measure of

a fighting Student House team by a28-0 score. In the course of this gameLarry Hallee '56, one of the betterends around, pulled in three touch-down passes. Jack Hoffman '56 did thepassing. SAM figured to romp overBaker "B", but they just managed tosqueak by 12-7. A particularly finegame was played by SAM HerbMalkind '58. His running was directlyresponsible for one T.D. and figuredin most of SAM's yardage. Besidesthis he played spectacularly at his de-fensive safety position.

The DKE-Phi Beta Ep affair and theDelta Psi-Lambda Chi Alpha contestround out the week's activities. DKEwon 6-0, Lambda Chi took theirs 7-0.The DKE's won when Don Braddock'58 intercepted a pass and returnedit to their opponents 7. A sleeper playthen accounted for the score. LambdaChi Alpha won mainly because theycompleted about 80% of their passes.Bill Herblin '58 was their passerwhile Jack Merkle '56 stood out on thereceiving end.

PredictionsAs we get better acquainted with

the capabilities of the teams we canbetter predict the outcomes of thegames. We picked correctly in 12 outof 15 contests for an 80% score thisweek. This gives us a 22 for 30 over-all record or a percentage of 73.33 ...

For you guys who don't like the wayI see the weeks games take a longlook at The Tech's new football pre-dictions contest. The prize is a six-pack of beer which you will get foryour very own. This week I take PhiGam by twelve over Phi Kappa; Sig-ma Phi Ep by twelve over AEPi; PhiDelta Theta by six over Lambda ChiAlpha; Pi Lambda Phi by two pointsover SAE, and SAM by the same mar-gin over DKE (frankly the last twoare what they are simply because thecoin carne down that way).
