59-Game Win Streak Ends
Sigma Upsets Barons
SPORTS REVIEW
By TONY COPP
Rattler Sports Editor
In Pigskin Thriller
November tenth will be a me-
morable date the Order of the
Barons may never forget nor will
the Sigma Beta nine who had
a hand in toppling the seemingly
unconquerable Barons 12-10 after
the tophatters had gone 59
straight games undefeated.
“WE WERE WAITING . . ”
It was a stunning defeat for
the Barons but more so a glori-
ous victory for Sigma who were
underdogs going into the contest.
“We were waiting for the Bar-
ons,” said coach Jim Mulligan,
“and knew if we played heads
up football we could win.”
Outstanding for Sigma in the
line were Gene Boron, Jim Viner,
Jim Stevens, also Martin Shaugh-
nessy, Mike “Night Train” Lane,
Philo Otto, James Zerillo and the
Sigma bench of about a hundred
or so.
VERSATILE NEUMAN
By far the outstanding player
for Sigma was Jim Neuman,
their field general who kept the
Baron defense off balance with
his option plays and running
ability while coming up with the
big third down play and main-
taining good ball control.
Sporting an inmovable defense,
Sigma controlled the entire first
half running up a 12-0 halftime
lead. Neuman passed to Lane
from 10 yards out for the first
talley set up by a 55 yard Neu-
man-to-Bill Madden pass play.
Later it was Neuman again on
a quarterback sneak for the sec-
Barons, Rebs
Collide Today
Today at 3 p.m. the Rebels and
the Order of the Barons will
meet in a game which will decide
who will face Sigma for the pig-
skin championship because - of
Sigma’s loss to Rho Beta Sunday.
Both teams have one common
loss to Sigma: the Barons 12-10,
and Rebels 12-8.
Maddin’s Mad Cavers
Having Wild Time
Searching Muddy Caves
BY LEANOR VILLAREAL
Never jump—never! Believe it
or not this is one of the safety
rules to be observed while in a
cave. Another one says, “Try not
to kick rocks loose, especially
over people’s heads.” Crazy but
true, these are safety and cour-
tesy rules for cavers from the
SPELUNKERS whose president,
Barbara Maddin, junior geology
major, is a St. Mary’s coed.
GUERILLA CAVERS
Other rules include learning
such interesting things as mak-
ing bowline and prussik knots,
wearing helmets, probing for
snakes in and around entrances
of caves, and one rule warns
never to crawl in close ranks
while wearing carbide lights.
TO THE CAVES!
All these exciting and challeng-
ing experiences can be had by
joining the Spelunkers in their
ventures. For more information
contact Barbara Maddin. You
must hurry, though, because these
adventurous people are anxious
to explore another cave. To the
caves!
ond TD with 20 seconds left to
play in the first half.
The Barons finally got rolling
in the second half as Neuman
fumbled on a fourth and one
situation. Buddy Galjour and
Novak moved the ball down to
the Sigma 25 yard stripe. A 15
yard penalty and 10 yard scamp-
er by Ralph Holt put the ball on
the 2 and Dick Overla went over
left tackle for the TD. Novak
passed to Pat Mueller for the ex-
tra points to make it 12-8.
SURPRISE GAINS SAFETY
Sigma had to punt after the
kickoff and the Barons were in
business on the Sigma 49. Overla
ran around ends for a first down.
Novak then decided to try the
long bomb hoping the Sigmas
would not expect a pass. 'On the
receiving end however was Jim
Christy, Sigma linebacker, who
intercepted it in the end zone
and attempted to run it out but
was caught for a safety making
the score 12-10.
HOLT DROPS ANOTHER
Phil Otto booted a short punt
from the 20 which gave the Ba-
rons new life on the Sigma 30
with 56 seconds remaining. On
third down Novak tossed to Holt
who was alone near the end zone
but dropped the pass. With ten
seconds remaining the Barons
passed into the end zone hoping
a Sigma player would intercept
it and be caught for another safe-
ty but the ball was batted down
by Phil Otto to end the game.

Rho Beta Overpowers Sigma
To Create League Tie
It was another great day for
the officials as they marked off
165 yards in penalties against Rho
Beta and 35 against Sigma Beta
as the RB’s downed the league
leading Sigma’s 20-6 to force a
championship playoff between
Sigma and the winner of . the
Rebel-Baron game.
The sign said “Smash Sigma”
and smash them they did, with
all the conventional means avail-
able. Taking the opening kickoff
and using good ball control, Rho
Beta moved quickly downfield
with Henry Stautzenberger go-
ing 25 yards around left end for
the TD.
Later Mike Morgan intercepted
a Jim Neuman aerial and raced
40 yards for the second Rho Beta
TD. Joe Scecina’s kick was good
and the score stood 13-0.
The second half was a rugged
defensive battle with occasional
Feet Demons
Win Again
The St. Mary’s University Soc-
cer team met one of its toughest
opponents Sunday, November 17
at Randolph Field, but emerged
with a victorious 6-5 score over
the Randolph team.
COME FROM BEHIND
Going into the second half the
Rattlers were ahead 4-3 but soon
found themselves behind 5-4 as
time was running out. Utilizing
the talents of Hugh Roddy and
Roberto de la Oliva the score was
soon tied with the winning goal
by Norman Thomas with a 30
foot ahead shot.
GANOZA
Particularly outstanding was
Juan Ganoza who, with powerful
kicks, kept the Randolph’s goalie
off balance and in one opportun-
ity almost knocked him out.
Goals were made by Javier
Anaya (2), Juan Ganoza (2),
Juan Zarzar (1), and Norman
Thomas (1).
In other action November 10,
the Soccer Team downed the
Continentals 6-0. Goals were
made by Juan Ganoza (3), Mar-
tin Thomas (1), Iva Saric (1),
and Javier Anaya (1).

Orations From Copius
OLD PROPHET: Say boys, news hath come in my
direction by way of Neumanville that yon Barons were
conquered in a battle during the ides of November.
BRUTUS NAUSIUS: Yeh, those yellow-shirted
Caesars had a lot of Gaul to beat my boys. They knocked
the living affluence out of them!
CUSTARDUS PIUS: Yeh, but the oracle hath declar-
ed two-fold revenge upon the victors. Some of them shall
be kidnapped sipping the keg of celebration at the Island
House where the winds trade. Others shall be mauled
down in their next battle with the elbow experts. It serves
them right for playing clean.
MARCUS CASSIUS: Yeh, (At this moment trum-
phets begin to blare out and cheers are heard from the
pacifists in the crowd).
GLUTEUS MAXIMUS: Well, its Antoninus Copius,
young promising writer and head shrinker!
BRUTUS NAUSIUS: Yon Copius hath a lean and
hungry look.
OLD PROPHET: Hail, Antoninus Copius!
ANTONINUS COPIUS: Hell yes, old timer. How’s
the old lady? How about some cold beer?
CUSTARDUS PIUS: What pleasant and bitter tid-
ings do you bring us, oh ye great cynic!
ANTONINUS COPIUS: I’ve just come from the riot
between the RB’s of Baronville and the Sig’s of Rebel-
ville and I have this to say. Burp! (Cheers from the pacifi-
cists, boos from the right wing capitalists).
MARCUS CASSIUS: Gentlemen, we are being ap-
proached by a messenger from the south expressway, er,
that is, the south chariot path.
YOUNG MESSENGER: (His horses dead from ex-
haustion, the squealer runs up to Copius gasping .. .) Sire,
I would have been here earlier but the north expressway,
er, that is, the north chariot path is not yet built. I have
a package from an anonymous friend named Logos who
sends greetings and hopes you will reap all its benefits.
(A ticking is heard from inside the package.)
MARCUS CASSIUS: (Arising to read attached card)
Friends, Finks, and Cynics. Lend me your ears! We are
not here to praise Copius but to bury him! BOOM!!!
(Package explodes as bodies of pacifists and card carry-
ing John Birchers are blasted over the newly-painted stu-
dent council office . . . but Copius lives on). Exeunt all
Dramatis Personae.
A Thought...
Why don’t we challenge our friendly competitors, the
St. Edwards Hilltoppers, and their intramural football
champs to meet our mural kings the day of the Powder
Puff game instead of having an all-star game? Not only
would the double feature be more interesting but could
be the beginning of an annual tussle between our pigskin
greats!
HEY WILL YOU LOOK AT THAT! I’ve never seen anything like it. Let’s see,
it’s blue and gold. Has 10 legs and hands. Five heads! Hey look. Now it’s run-
ning up and down a hardwood floor and bouncing a ball. But wait, they’ve stop-
ped for a time out and now they’re six heads jumping up and down and yell-
ing. Looks weird, doesn’t it! Sounds good, though. Say, this looks like more
fun than' tossing a ball through a net. I sure would like to know who they are.
Guess we’ll have to go to the game Tuesday night and see ’em in person.
