:X THE MICHIGAN DAILY THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, THE MICIHGAN DAILY THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, lass Interception Sparks ATO sigma Nu Air Attack Wins Roman Tells Story of a Minor Leaguer I By BOB ZALISK and ROY WHANG Alpha Tau Omega squeaked past Theta Chi, 6-0, in the first overtime game of this year's I-M schedule, yesterday in social fra- ternty 'A' action. Mitch Phillips broke the ice for ATO in the seesaw conflict when he scopped up a twice-deflected pass and carried it to the one- foot line. After two unsuccessful attempts for the TD, quarterback Rollin Douma hit Dan Molhock in the end zone to put the game in the bag for ATO. Sigma Nu exploded out of a 0-0 half-time deadlock with Sigma Phi to trounce the Sig Phi's, 22-0. In the first play of the second half, SN's Bryant Ewing made a leaping dive for quarterback Shan Griffith's long pass and crashed to the ground for the touchdown. Griffith clicked again to Ewing, who made a repeat performance for the extra points in grabbing Griffith's pass after a frantic Sig Phi defender had knocked it away. In other play, Trigon trimmed Theta Delta Chi, 14-6, in a hard- fought battle. Behind 6-0 at the half, Trigon's Tom Addison even- ed , the score in the opening minutes by intercepting a Theta Delt pass and running for a touch- down on the first play. Trigon soon regained the lead on a long pass play and stayed out in front by chalking up the fnal two extra points. A bitterly fought match between Beta Theta Pi and Theta Xi ended in a 2-0 victory for the Betas. Don Corriere decided the game when he pushed the opposition back for a safety. The Delta Upsilon and Acacia battle ended n victory for the DU's through Captain Dave Ran- dall's 35-yd. touchdown pass to Arnie Morawa, and Gary Joachin's TD run. Psi Upsilon walked-over Alpha Delta Phi 10-0 through a safety in the first half and a short touchdown pass by Tom Ahren in the second half. Sigma Chi's two platoon sub- stitution system and the bull-like rushing of Phi Delta Theta's 245- pound John Manz, were highlights of respective games last night. The precision passing of Bill Reed to glue-fingered receivers, Bob Roberts, Guy Briggs and Bob Young accounted for 18 points of a 26-0 defeat over Lambda Chi Alpha. Meanwhile, the Phi Delt's bigF John Manz busily chopped his way through the front line pha- lanx of a courageous Phi Gamma Delta team. Quickly grabbing a stray Phi Gam pass, Rick Board- man raced to the end zone for the lone TD of the game. Also uti- lized was mercurial back Tom Gibson, as the Phi Delts eked out a 6-0 win. Sportsmanship and .' spirted play typified the evening ' games, three of which were not played because of absent teams.

After hitting .317 in 17 games for the Barons he was reassigned to the Durham club of the Class B Carolina league. How does it feel to be handed a fat contract one minute and the next minute find yourself playing baseball in the so-called "bushes'? Batted .292 Roman, who hit .292 with four home runs and 43 RBI's for Dur- ham, grinned as he told of some of the bizarre incidents which are typical of minor league baseball. "In one game," he recalled, "our club committed four errors on one play and allowed four unearned runs to score. I remember the play very well because I made two of the errors." "One other time," he continued, "our catcher hit a ball into deep right field that landed on top of the cinder block wall and stayed there. The umpires had a heck of a time deciding whether to rule it a double or a home run." 'Poor Players' . And after having the lavish Michigan training quarters at his disposal for four years, Roman sadly related the tale of the poor ballplayer who gets hurt in the Carolina league. "When a ballplayer gets hurt in the Carolina league he practically has to take care of himself," he related. "There are no whirlpool baths, no heat lamps, and no rub- down tables, and besides, the team bus usually left right after the game anyway." Despite all this, Roman has "no ragrets whatsoever" about sign- ing the Tiger pact. Undoubtedly he was influenced by the fact that he could return to school in the off season and still get his degree in aeronautical engineering in three semesters. Didn't Sign The big first baseman could have signed a lucrative contract directly out of high school but was influenced by his parents to con- tinue his schooling at Michigan. "I'm very happy now that my parents talked me out of signing," he said. "I feel I learned as much baseball playing under Don Lund as I could have in any minor league, and I got my schooling in besides." Roman listed two things he thuoght were the big differences between college and professional baseball. "When you know you're playing for money it seems to make you put out a little more, to play a little harder." Good Pitching "Also," he continued, "in pro- fessional baseball you face good pitching every day while in col- lege you may face only one good pitcher a week." Roman had no trouble recalling his best and worst days at the plate. They both came during doubleheaders. "In one doubleheader I had five for seven, including two triples, two doubles and a single. In the other I went zero for eight. That last one was a long day." Although he had offers from seven other major league clubs, Roman chose the Tigers because he felt that he would be able to rise quickest in the Tiger organi- zation. Another factor that might have had something to do with it, he admitted, was that the Tigers of- fered him as much money as any of the other clubs. It might not be too long before Michigan followers see Roman in Tiger uniform. His contract for next year has been purchased by Denver of the Amercian Associa- tion, although he will report to Tigertown for spring training. .Williams In Farewl; Hits Homer BOSTON (M - The seventhj place Boston Red Sox wound up the American League season yes- terday with a 5-4 decision over the second place Baltimore Ori- oles but the result was a mere incident to most fans. For Ted Williams, baseball's nonpareil hitter over the last two decades, bade his farewell as a player in typical fashion. To a tumultuous reception by the fans he walloped a monster home run more than 400 feet over the bullpen in centerfield. It was his 29th of the year and the 52 1st of his illustrious, fre- quently interrupted career. Every time he came to bat he was cheered and applauded. Then, in the eighth inning, with the count 1-1 he smashed the last homer of his career at Fenway Park. The fans chanted "We want Williams" as play was delayed fully three minutes. He didn't come out of the dugout until the Sox took the field for the ninth inning. Then he received another great ovation. As soon as the applause died he was replaced by Carroll Hardy, and in typical fashion, hurried from the field to another long, loud cheer. 4 I I AUTHENTIC SHIRTS SOUND-Ex-Wolverine first baseman Bill Roman has ed his first season in professional baseball and hopes Tiger uniform soon. He has returned to school to program in aeronautical engineering.

Mickey Mantle moved past teammate Roger Maris for the AL home run lead by hitting his 39th and 40th, and Cletus Boyer belted his 14th as the Yanks tied the league homer record of 190 they set in 1956. They have three games left, against Boston at New York. The Major League record is 221, held by the 1947 New York Giants and 1956 Cincinnati Reds. Ford Wins Whitey Ford (12-9), a possible opening game choice by Manager Casey Stengel in the World Series, was the winner, giving up five hits and one earned run-Bob Allison's 15th homer - in a five-inning tune-up. Chuck Stobbs (12-7) was the loser. He was tagged for all three home runs as the AL champs rolled up their longest winning streak since 1954. Williams' home run, his 29th of the season, was a 450-foot blast in the eighth inning off loser Jack Fisher (12-11). The Red Sox won it in the ninth on an error by Billy Klaus. Mike Fornieles (10-5) was the winning pitcher in his 70th appearance, breaking the AL record set by Boston's El- lis Kinder in 1953.
