Show Army Wrestling Team Tame Lundberg Turner Freed Gisseman Wilding Army Tennis Team Grant Crow- Freed WRESTLING The power threat of the Sigma Chi mat men was hardly enough for them to down the crack Army roughers; hence the R. 0. T. C. copped its second major winter sport. Sigma Nu and Beta Theta Pi tied for third place. Several outstanding grapplers were uncovered in the contests, some of whom were drafted by Coach Pete Couch to the varsity mat contingent. The matches were refereed by varsity lettermen who insisted on a correct interpretation of the rules. The following men represented the Army mat team: Roy Gisseman, Kenneth Tame, Fred Lundberg, Harrison Turner, Wes Smith, Morris Buswell, Melvin Backman, and Pete Carlston. TENNIS Tennis, ever a favorite with the intra-murals, enjo3'cd two prosperous sessions on the campus in the form of spring and fall tourneys. The snappy R. 0. T. C. net-ters stepped out from the field of entries to amass honors in the fall joust. Sigma Chi placed second, and Phi Delta Theta and Pi Kappa Alpha tied for third place. Sigma Pi, with Herzog, Summerhays, and Badger, usurped the spring leg. The matches throughout were close, indicative of the fact that the quality of play has imjDroved considerably. SKIING Largely through the striking performance of Llewellyn Leigh, the Sigma Pi fraternity ski team snatched first place in the hill-riding sport. Sigma Chi pressed the leaders closely and was followed by Phi Pi Phi, Sigma Nu, and Beta Theta Pi, the last two in a deadlock for fourth place. Leigh averaged 71^4 feet and Kimball, Sigma Chi, aggregated a little better than 59 feet in two jumps from a natural trajectory just above the Bonneville Golf Course. Dick Gardner, Phi Pi Phi ski star, won the 220 yard dash, Leigh taking second, and in the two-mile run Leigh bested Kimball to the tape by two minutes. 239 |
