Delta Tau Delta showed tre- mendous power in smashing Tri- angle, 25-1. Bob Carlson lofted two home runs, Boyd Henderson, a four-bagger and a triple, and Paul Herrick added a n o t h e r round-tripper to lead the heavy hitting Delts. With this type of power the Delts loom as a strong contender for top honors. Trigon boosted by Bob Reeves' three triples and Bob Copeland's home run ripped Phi Kappa Sig- ma, 19-3.

The quartet that bettered the :41.9 mark set' in 1930 was made up of John Gregg, Don Chal- fant, Dick Cephas and anchorman Tom Robinson, who did the dis- tance in :41.4. Michigan also took the mile re- lay with a time of 3:18.5. Dick Cephas, Tony Seth, Dave Martin and Marsh Dickerson did the honors in this one. Bryan Gibson usually runs as leadoff man for the mile relay, but was withheld from this race to take a first in the 440 run. Tom Robinson, hampered by a cold, ran nothing longer than a leg of the 440-yd. relay, but was able to sprint a :9.4 100-yd. dash. The time would have been a new varsity record, eclipsing the pre- vious mark of Tolan and co-holder Sam Stoller, '36, if he had not been aided by a strong wind. Teammate Gregg. was only one- tenth of a second off his pace. Show Depth Coach Don Canham's men show- ed their depth as they picked up their 12 firsts without any double winners. Junior Ron Trowbridge tallied his initial varsity first by topping teammate Pete Stanger, Big Ten champion, in the 220-yd. low hurdles. Other Michigan firsts were taken by Captain Mamon Gibson in the pole vault, Seth in the 880, Mar- tin in'the mile, Stanger in the high hurdles, Crownley in the shot put, Cephas in the high jump. The two-mile run saw a rarity in a dead heat between Dick Schwartz and Cam Gray, both of Michigan. ORIENTATION LEADERS for FALL SEMESTER Sign up in Student Offices Apr. 6th-11th 3-5 P.M.
