Pi Chi’s Win Two;
KA’s and “B” Ind.
Fall 6-0 and 26-0
Beginning the second month of
Intramural football play, t'he Pi
Chi’s edged by the Kappa Alpha
team 6-0. The- KA’s, showing
marked improvement, surprised
the Pi Chi team by stopping cold
their air attack; long ground gains
told the story with the lone tally
coming in the second quarter.
Fine blocking for the Pi Chi’s
enabled Eldon Mayes to make
numerous long gains as his team
was unable to gain yardage pass-
ing. The 'hard charging Pi Chi
line, beginning to stand out as
one of the best in the league, gave
Dave Self little time to pick his
receivers. He was continually
rushed by Breeding, Deschner,
McIntyre, Heckman, and W.
Mayes, who backed up the line
over ceniter and rushed when not
checking pass receivers.
Gpod pass defense work by Bean,
Hammond, and Hahn along rith
hard rushing by Kenley, Guthrie,
and Tooley kept the Pi Chi’s from
getting ini scoring position more
than twice.
To round out the last of the
third wedk of Intramural play,
the Pi Chi team beat the B Inde-
The A Independents came out,
on top of the Phi Delta Theta
team 7-0 in the second game of I
the week. The Phi’s were not in
top form with their passer, Buddy
Mark, out of the game. The A’s
received the kick-off, hut they
could iiiot score until t/be second
quarter.
There was no serious threat
made by the Phi’s during the first
half. Dan Parmalee led bis team
S,
iy nr mu,
with his usual brilliant passing.
The fine A Independent line did
its share of the work by holding
out the Phi line and giving the
passer plenty of time to make his
pass.
Long drives were stopped many
limes by the beautiful interception
by both the Phi’s, who intercepted
7 passes, and the A’s, who inter-
cepted 6. Buddy Mark was res-
ponsible for 4 of the Phi’s 7; Par-
malee latched on to 3 out of the
li for the A’s.
The usual amount of injuries
were received by both teams with
Boh Bisbee, a Phi guard, trying
to crack t'he sidewalk, and Jack
Quigley, an A Independent end,
getting ihis shoulder knocked down.
A fair writeup would not be
complete without mentioning the
alertness of Bill Ayres on the Phi
defense and offense and the rough
work done by Arbie Kiker for
the A’s.
The oiftstanding feature of the
Southwestern-East Texas Baptist
College game was undoubtedly Bill
Hartley’s punting. Hartley punted
sevem times for an average of 38
yards. There was a runhack on
only one punt, and it was a mere
four yards.
The next night Hartley journey-
ed to Bryan with the “B” team for
the Alla.ru Academy game. In this
game he not only handled the “B”
team punting but scored on a five
yard jaunt over the middle of the
line.
Leroy Atkison repeated his
punt returnt performance of the
Howard Payne game against East
Texas Baptist. The only difference
being he brought this one back
only 55 yards as compared to his
88 yard return of the week before.
“Big Dan’’ Davenport proved
•he was fully recovered from the
injuries he received in the Cor-
pus Christi NATB game by
wrecking the Tiger offense
throughout the game. Bob Koenig
also gave the Baptist a very bad
time.
Joe Evans found holes in the
Fast Texan’s line for large gains
all night. Dewey Baker, Leroy
Atkison, Jimmy Jon/as, Bill Sweet,
and Jim Francis 'also penetrated
the Tiger defense with regularity.
Frank Butler played his usual
good game against * East Texas
and took the “B” squad to Bryan
the next night and acted in the
capacity of coach. Butler did a
very good job of handling the “B”
squad and said, “All the boys
played a good game”.
pendents 26-0. The Pi Chi’s took
a quick lead in the first quarter
and added to their advantage three
more touchdowns ini the second
half to come out at the 'half 20 to
0. Touchdowns were made by E.
Mays, Jerry Breeding and Heck-
man.
The second quarter showed a
changed B team that not only
held the Pi Chi’s to 6 points, but
also got the ball deep in Pi Chi’s
territory several times. With
Floyd Walcher an/d Marshall Ew-
ing alternating as passer, the In-
dependents completed several long
passes to Bill Mann and^Don Lee.
The sparklimg passing attack of
the Pi Chi’s was interrupted many
times by long running gains by E.
Mays. Following carefully the
hard blocking by “Red” Townsend

periods of play Friday night, Oc-
tober 31, to take a non-conference
tilt from East Texas Baptist Col-
lege of Marshall 13 at Snyder
Field.
Neither team scored during the
first quarter but the Buc’s run-
ning attack with Dewey Baker,
Jimmy Jonas, Leroy Atkison, and
Bill Sweet carrying a/nd the punt-
ing of Bill Hartley kept the Tigers
in their own end of the field
throughout the period.
The Bucs recovered a Tiger
fumble on the East Texas 19 yard
line and Jimmy Jonas carried to
the 15 as t'he first quartei ended.
Baker and Andy Allison carried
to the 10 as the second began and
on the next play Jim Francis took
the hall over his own left guard
for the score. Francis’ extra point
attempt was no good a/sd the Bucs
led 6-0.
Southwestern scored again early
in the third quarter when Evans
carried over from t'he 7. Holloway
started the scoring drive when 'he
took Billy Joe Arms’ kick-off
starting the second half on the
Southwestern, 27 and returned to
the 37. On the next play Evans
broke loose and went all the way
to the East Texas 24 before he
was brought down. Baker, Evans,
and Sweet carried to the seven
where Evans circled 'his own left
ejvd for t'he touchdown. Francis’
try for extra point was good and
the Pirates increased their lead
to 13-0.
Leroy Atkison increased his punt
return average late in the fourth/
quarter when he took Billy Bock-
man’s kick on his ovm 10 and re-
turned to the Tiger 35 before he
was brought down. A penalty took
the ball to the 20. Jonas carried
to the 15 and Clyde Bradley in-
tercepted Bill Sweet’s pass and
was downed on t'he East Texas
seven as the game ended: South-
