U
I M SPORTS TRAIL.
.. . By Gene Mackevich
Now wtih the holidays behind us, intramural sports, like other
cpnpus activities, will begin rolling in the new year with a quick two
week program highlighting four new winter sports.
Heading the I-M roster of events from now until finals will be
blasketball, both "A" and "B", bowling, paddleball in the social fra-
ternities, and in the resident halls, water polo.
j With the teams starting out fresh again, in a sense, with new
sports in a new year, let's go back to the completed first third of the
intramural program and take a look at the leading squads in their
Iespective leagues.
Starting with the social fraternities, last year's champion,
Sigma Phi Epsilon, is once again leading the field. The Sig Eps
have emassed a total of 635 points, 49 better than runner-up Alpha
Tau Omega with 586.
Other houses in the big ten include Sigma Chi, 558; Kappa Sigma,
534; Phi Gamma Delta, 532; Delta Tau Delta, 528; Delta Sigma Phi,
ยง23; Pi Lambda Phi, 513; Theta Xi, 441; and Phi Kappa Tau with 430.
These totals include five of the fall sports: football, outdoor track,
.ross country, volleyball and wrestling.
Topping the big ten in the residence halls is Hayden house,
with 603 points, followed by last year's winner, Williams, who
l- sports a 588 total.
After a little point drop, we find Hinsdale trailing in the third
slot with 522, followed by Allen-Rumsey, 506; Wenley, 437; and
Gomberg of the South Quad with 410. Rounding out the leaders
there is Winchell, Prescott, Adams and Hayden in that order.
Interesting to note here is that Kelsey is the first South Quad
house to capture a championship in I-M competition. This was ac-
complished when the South Quadders downed Hinsdale in the hand-
tall finals, 2-1.
;haw Club Leads Pros
Moving over to the professional fraternity league we see the Law
Club is on top with an even 400 points. The lawyers have won three
out of four titles so far this season: football, volleyball and bowling,
r.vhile they lost out in the semi-finals of handball to Phi Epsilon
Kappa, 2-1.
Nu Sigma Nu trails in second with 340 tallies; they are fol-
lowed by Delta Sigma Delta, 310; Alpha Kappa Kappa, 305; and
Alpha Chi Sigma and Phi Delta Phi who are tied with 285 points.
The Turks, who are undefeated in volleyball, lead the Chinese
and Arabs in the International Center loop.
The Independent league finds the Foresters on top with 392 points.
Newman, 365, Hawaiians, 337, Wesleyan, 285, and the MCF with 257
}follow in that order.
)IM's'51 Flashback
Around this time each year everybody and his brother is picking
}the best and worst things that have come about during the course of
the completed year. In discussing the intramural program it would
be impossible to follow this idea through, but a slight modification-
a general sumnation of the better happenings in each of the loops
dating back to the beginning of the fall semester-might not be too
bad an idea.
For example, among the professional fraternities, the Law
Club has been all-everything. It may be remembered in five
football games the lawyers compiled a total of 151 points while
they were able to hold opponents scoreless. Unusual as it may
be, the Law Club never punted once in any of these five contests.
Two more titles came in volleyball and bowling. In the former
they beat Nu Sigma Nu in the finals, 4-2; while in the latter the
squad totalled 4,958, which figures approximately 165 average per
man per game.
A TO on Title Warpath
Probably the most outstanding bit of news from the social fra-
ternities comes by way of Alpha Tau Omega. Although 49 points
behind the league-leading Sig Eps, ATO has managed to capture three
first place championships and one second place title during 1951.
In the residence halls, the nod again must go to a team that,
at the present time, is not leading their loop. The house is Wil-
liam$, which trails league-leading Hayden by 15 points.
Briefly, that's it. Law Club, ATO, and Williams are nominated
for outstanding play during '51. But two-thirds of the I-M program
his still to be played out. So, time remains for any other squad to get
hot and make an outstanding record for itself. New sports in a new
year may give us a new story.

BOSTON-(A')-Ted Williams,
the Boston Red Sox $100,000-plus
slugger, yesterday was recalled by
the U.S. Marines for what is ex- >
pected to be at least 17 months of
active service.
A flying instructor in the Corps
from 1943-45, Williams has been
ordered to report at nearby
Squantum for a physical exami- f
nation April 2. If found physically
fit, he will start eight weeks of
re-indoctrination training at the
Willow Grove Naval Reserve Base
near Philadelphia on May 2.

WILLIAMS, fishing in the Flo- NI
rida Keys when the news was re-
layed to him by his business man-
ager, Fred Corcoran, commented:
"If Uncle Sam wants me, I'm
ready. I'm no different from the
next fellow." 1
Williams, who has a winterH
home in Miami and spends most i
of the baseball off-season fish-
ing, told Corcoran he would re-
port for spring training as usual. Et

months, the statutory limit for re-

tarily.
During his three years of pre-
vious service, Williams served as
a flying instructor at Chapel
Hill, N.C., Pensacola, Fla., and
at Pearl Harbor. About two
years ago, the Marine Corps cir-
culated recruiting posters bear-
ing Williams' photograph and
the slogan "As the Man Who
Was A Marine."
"Williams will be a terrific loss
to us, despite the fact we have
seven other outfielders," Cronin
said. "We had no warningof his
recall. He'll be hard to replace,
but we'll make the best of it."

Ice scrapings after six Michiganl
victories in nine starts so far this
campaign:
MIDWESTERN LEAGUE: Vic-
tories each worth two points Mon-
day and Tuesday over Michigan
State boosted Denver past Michi-
gan into sole possession of firstj
place in the Midwestern Collegiate{
Hockey League.
The Westerners, coached by
Neil Celley, have ten points, on
five triumphs in six loop starts,
while Vic Heyliger's Wolverines
in second boast six points, hav-
ing played one less game and
lost one more than Denver.
The Pioneers' two wins over
MSC were by scores of 8-2 and
7-4.
Colorado and North Dakota are
tied for third with four points,
each having won two out of three.
Tuesday the Nodaks downed Mich-
igan Tech, 8-4.
Denver and North Dakota, top
contenders with Michigan for
league honors that mean a bid
to the NCAA tourney for the
first and second place finishers,
each have split two game series
with the Wolverines.
The Nodaks and Pioneers, how-
I ever will have a chance to cut
each other's throats leaguewise
when they clash February 19 and
20 in Denver.
LOST: Hockey scoring punch:
Maize and Blue; urgently missed,
especially against North Dakota:
finder please notify Vic Heyliger
at Coliseum post haste.
After scoring 34 goals in their
first five starts, the Wolverines
have tapered off, bagging exact-
ly half that number in the next
four games.
"We get the chances," says
Heyliger, "but we just can't put
the puck in the net." This was
particularly true in losses to
North Dakota (2-4) and Denver
(4-5).
Heyliger and his sextet are
searching diligently during prac-
tice drills for the wayward knack
of bagging goals in preparation for
this weekend's two game Minne-
sota invasion. Friday night's bat-
tle is for two points in the MCHL
standings.
BRIGHTER SIDE: John Mat-
chefts and John McKennell, third
and fourth high scorers last year,
have apparently hit their stride of
last season, each kicking up six
points against Denver and North
Dakota after comparatively slow
starts.
Also, the third line of Doug
Mullen, Bob Heathcott, and Ron
Martinson flashed brilliance in
the Nodak series.
Reg Shave, the big blonde de-
fenseman, broke into the scoring
column against the Northmen,
bagging a goal and an assist.
PROGNOSTICATION: Watch
for the Wolverines to bust loose
and bury some unsuspecting op-
ponent with a deluge of goals in
the near future.
Players of the caliber of Pat
Cooney,rEarl Keyes, and George
Chin (linemates who have been
having trouble denting the
twines of late) can go only so
long without tallying before
something has to give.
And if this trio gets going the
way Heyliger expects them to,
combined with the effective play
of the other lines, future foes will
be in for some rough goings over.
BROTHERLY LOVE: Melvin
Mullen, younger brother of Michi-
gan's red headed right wing, Doug,
has enrolled at Denver and is
eligible for immediate hockey
competition.
Mel, a highly regarded puck-
chaser, will help Celley fill the
gap left by the induction into the
Army of Tony Poernich, forward
who appeared against the Wol-
verines here before vacation.
