Theta Xi Tops
Trigon Behind
Black's Hurling
To Face Phi Delta Theta
In Finals As Alley Cats
Beat Whirlwinds, 5-2
By DON WIRTCHAFTER
Tommy Black's six hit hurling
helped Theta Xi whip Trigon for the
second straight time in two weeks
yesterday and placed them .in the
final round of the I-M fraternity
softball, league.
It took two victories for the Theta
Xi men to do the trick, for in the
first encounter which they won 13-6
it was discovered that they had used
two graduate students, Dick Ger-
kensmeyer and Paul Simpson. Yes,-
terday's game which ended in a 6-2
victory was the result of the I-M de-
partment's decision to replay the
semi-final match.
Black had things his way all af-
ternoon. In only two innings, the
second and the fifth, did the Trigons!
touch him for more than one hit. In
the second frame Kettler bunted
safely down the third base line and
Dayton Slater followed with a long
double to left, but both were left
stranded when Walt Rodgers fanned.
Trigons Score In Fifth
The Trigons scored their only runs'
in the fifth inning when Hurler Tom-
my Lawton led off with a triple to
right. Kettler pushed him across
with another safe bunt down the first
base line this time and tallied on
Slater's second bingle, a one-base
poke to center.
Theta Xi scored one in the first.
Ed Christensen reached first on an
error and went on to score when Bill
Mason's hard grounder took a bad
hop over third-sacker Kettler's head.
In the third, John Robinson led off
with a double to right. Phil Simpson
drew a base on balls. Robinson and
Simpson took second and third re-
spectively on Fred 'Burdick's single

Greenberg Hits 13th As
Tigers Down Yanks 84
NEW YORK, June 1.-(/P)-Vernon
Kennedy came within three home
runs of shutting out the Yankees to-
day as he pitched the Detroit Tigers
'to an 8 to 4 victory over the World
Champions for his eighth consecutive
win of the season.
The league's leading pitcher hard-
cuffed the Yankee sluggers for seven
innings with five scattered singles,
but in the eighth he tossed "fat" ones
that Lou Gehrig and Bill Dickey lifr-
ed into the right field stands, and in
the ninth Frank Crosetti crashed a
homer into the left field stands with
Bill Knickerbocker on base.
Hank Greenberg, first up for De-
troit in the ninth, smashed one of
Bump Hadley's pitches deep into thae
left field seats for his 13th home run
of the year.
The Bengals owed their victory,
successfully opening an invasion of
the East, to resounding rallies that
drove a total of seven runs across the
plate in the fourth and fifth innings.
and knocked starting pitcher Steve
Sundra out of the box.
- Greenberg, with his homer and two
singles, and Kennedy, with a double
and two singles, led the 13-hit attack
that snapped the Yankee winning
streak at three games.
