Falls After Two Deadlocks

By CLARKE STEVENSON
"Volleyball's a game where six
over-sized men bat an undersized
ball back and forth over a tennis
net suspended seven feet over the
floor."
That was some sideline skeptic's
opinion that your wandering re-
porter picked up while trying to
absorb some of the finer points of
volleyball last week.
I got down to the I-M Building
early in the evening in the hopes
of gathering some information on
the general rules of independent
volleyball.
* * *
I ASKED an athlete who looked
like he could tell me what I want-
ed to know. He said he could and
invited me to play basketball while
waiting for the playing to start.
I accepted. I shouldn't have.
As we raced toward the other
side of the gym I shouted, "How
many games do they play each
night?" He made a back-hand-
ed basket and answered, "six."
We ran back and forth for an-
other fifteen minutes before I
found out there are fifteen points
to a volleyball game. The game
continued as I tried to think up
another question and breathe at
the same time.

THE VOLLEYBALL teams are
divided into four leagues of four
teams each. The teams play one
set with each of the others in their
league.
Then the winners of the vari-
ous leagues are matched against

each other for first place and
the same procedure is followed
for second, third and fourth
places.
The standings are based on the
percentages of games won over
the games lost.
ON TOP IN THE A league with
a narrow margin, the Dodgers have
won 10, lost 2 and still have six
games remaining. The Hawaiians
are close on their heels with 9
wins and 3 defeats. The Ramblers
"A" have won 4 and lost 8 while
Omega Deuteron have dropped 11
and taken 1.
In the B League the Owlers
11-1 have a narrow lead over last
year's champions, the Mis-Fits,
10-2. The Nakamura Co-op has
won one and dropped eleven.
The Ramblers "B" have two
wins and 10 defeats to date.
The C and D Leagues have only
completed one round of playoffs.
The Newman "A's" beat the Hill-
topp.;rs in a 5-1 victory. The Mich-
igan Co-opers downed Azory Mu
Pi by a 4-2 score.
The Physical Eds romped over
the Newman "B's" to pile up a
perfect score of six wins. Mich.
Christian Fellowship split with Bob
Owen Co-op, 3-3.

After twice battling to scoreless
ties, Phi Delta Theta trimmed Beta
Theta Pi, 9-0, yesterday afternoon
at Ferry Field to cop the fraternity
touch football crown.
Last week the clubs floundered
around in the Wines Field mud for
four scoreless quarters, only to
have the contest stricken from the
records.
LAST TUESDAY afternoon at
Ferry Field, the same situation was
repeated before the game was
called on account of rain after the
first half.
Regardless of how long it took
the Phi Delts to assert their au-
thority over the Betas, they real-
ly proved themselves to be true
champions in every sense of the
word. The Beta Theta Pi of-
fensive attack was completely
throttled by the fast-charging
Phi Delt line, sparked by big
Dick Strauss throughout the
game.
Phi Delta Theta opened the
game by kicking off to the Betas,
who put the ball in play on their
own 25-yard line.
A FEW MOMENTS later, Dick
Strauss fell on a fumbled Beta
lateral on the 20, and it was only
a matter of three plays for quar-
terback John Madden totoss a 20-
yard pass to center John Malloy
for a touchdown.
Doug Wick's extra point at-
tempt was good, and the Phi
Delts led, 7-0.kAgain the Betas
received the kickoff, this time
on their 25, only to have safety
man Gerry Hahn intercept a
misdirected Beta toss for the Phi
Delts on the 30-yard line as the,
first quarter ended.
But Beta Paul Veith bounced
right back and grabbed a Phi Delt
pass on his own five. A few plays
later, Strauss broke through the
Beta line to catch the passer be-
hind the goal line for a safety,
making the score 9-0.
BETA THETA PI kicked from
their 20 to the Phi Delt 40. and
after failing to gain, Blair Moody
punted to the opposing 40-yard
line as the half ended.
In the second half, the Phi Delts
received the kickoff on their 20,
and again were stopped after three
downs. Moody kicked to midfield,
whree Captain Madden intercepted
another Beta pass for the Phi Delts
on the 40. Halfback Doug Wicks
then passed to Madden for a
first down on the Beta 45-yard
line.
But here the Phi Delt jugger-
naut was stopped; they punted
to the 25 as the third quarter
ended.
Quarterback Johnny Johnstone
threw to Jim DeBoer for a first

down on the 45, as the vaunted
Betas began to roll.

HOWEVER, after getting to
midfield, they punted to the Phi

Delt 35-yard line. Wicks completed
another toss to Madden for a first
down at midfield.
Here DeBoer stopped the Phi
Delts by intercepting another
pass on the 40.. Phi Delt Jim Ge-
larum stopped a Beta scoring
threat by grabbing one of their
passes on his own 25 as the
game ended.
In the second place playoffs,
Theta Chi nosed out Psi Upsilon,
2-0, on a safety; Zeta Beta Tau
whitewashed Phi Sigma Kappa,
13-0, in the third place division.
