The semi-finals in the intramural
football program began thi.s week
with two squads being eliminated
with the three remaining units
still setting their sights on the
coveted trophy.
Newkirk Wins
Tuesday started the play-off in
tbe dormitory league as Newkirk
beat Soles Hall lfi-6 in one of
the roughest games of the season.
The first kickoff received by Soles
Hall was carried all the way for
a touchdown in a spectacular triple
reverse as Fred Hunt carried for
the T.D. Newkirk quickly came
back and scored two touchdowns
and two safeties. Their whole attack was spearheaded by Ernie
Peters playing halfback as he
caught three long passes thrown
by Ted Ecker.
Phi Delt QualiBes
On Wednesday in the fraternity
leagues. Phi Delt was once again
playing Phi Psi for their respective
League Championship as they tied
each other in both previous encounters. The game again ended
in that familiar 0-0 score, even
though Phi Psi had advanced all
the way to the 2 yard line of Phi
Delt only to be held by the .strong
Phi Delt line. So the game had
to be decided by the sudden death

Again Phi Psi tried a n o t h e r p.is.s,

plunged a r o u n d Phi P s i . end for

Booters Triumph 4'1; Gridmen Snap Knight Reign;
Deadlock Temple, 0-0
The Maroon soccermen fought
their way to victory over Stevdns
on a rain swept March Field la.st
Thursday by a score of 4-1. This
was Lafayette's third victory of
the season against 5 defeats, but
it was their first win over Stevens
in the past four years. The underdog Maroon team once again
hustled their way to victory stopping mo.st of Steven's attacks at
midfield.
Batter Neti
In every quarter, there was a
constant excelling of Maroon spirit
and fortitude with vicious drives
putting the Stevens men behind
by four goals. Leading the.se attacks was rugged Charlie Ippolito
who had assists on 2 goals and
put one past the goalie himself.
Shearer, Murphy, and Stengel
were the other Maroon booters
who placed the ball in Steven's
net. "Lennie" Trabulski was the
outstanding Stevens' booter as he
played a great game at center
half keeping constant pre9sure on
the Lafayette players.
Biggest Upiet
This game ended up to be Lafayette's biggest upset so far this
season, and the Maroon booters
are determined to keep up their
winnmg ways when they face
Temple November 9th.
Temple Deadlocked
This week, in a hard fought
game, the Lafayette soccer team
held the Temple squad to a scoreless tie. The few spectators who
braved the cold weather, saw what
could easily be the most exciang
game that the Maroon booters
have played this season. Both
teams threatened to break into
the scoring column on numerous
plays, but fine defensive play from
both teams goalies kept the game
at a 0 to 0 deadlock. The game
went into a double overtime period, and proved almost heartbreaking, when the inside right
for Temple kicked a goal one second after the whistle had blown
ending the game.
Lafayette moved the ball well,
with sophomores Bill Wilcox.«on
and John Larson playing outstanding offensive ball, but the team
seemed to lack the scoring punch
once they brought the ball into
Owl territory. Defensively the
team was superb, especially goalie
Bill Webster, and inside right,
Larry McKnight. Coach George
Davidson had his team up for tl'H
game, as Lafayette has not beaten
a Temple soccer team since 1937.

Rutgers drew first blood in the
opening period, after the Maroon
held four downs valiantly on their
own 12, Charley Kozichek ripped
up the middle to the 24 and fumbled, the Scarlet again recovering. Rutgers scored in eight plays
with the Leopards holding on grimly. The Scarlet finally made a
first down one foot from the goal
and then Larry Lusardi went
through the left end and scored.
Josh Hosoda converted the extra
point. Later in the half Rutgers
drove for a first down to the Lafayette two before the Pards made
a brilliant goal line stand, finally
taking over inches from their own
goal.
FRANK MATTISON, climaxing a 45-yard drive, plungei the last
four desperate yards to pay dirt scoring the tying touchdown in the
2nd quarter at the Rutgers-Lafayette gridiron classic last Saturday.

DIRECT DISTANCE DIALING
Modifying telephone systems for nation-wide dialing
requires months of make-ready. Working with technical men from Bell Laboratories and Bell telephone
companies. Western Electric engineers develop and
plan the manufacture and installation of the intricate
equipment needed for change-overs. Shown here is an
automatic switching bay being manufactured in one of
Western's 16 plants.
March To T.D.
Late in the second period after
an exchange of punts, the Hokufmen took over on the Rutgers 45.
Jack Slotter gained 20, Frank Mattison four, and then Joe Bozik
passed to Jack Slotter, the play
reaching the seven. Gordie Brown
drove to the four and on two tries
Mattison bulled over, soon to boot
the tying conversion with 50 seconds remaining in the half.
Lafayette did everything but
score in the third period and, late
in that stanza, the same Maroon
attempted a field goal and were
thwarted. Rutgers fumbled on its
first play after the try and Al
Caesar recovered the bobble on
the Scarlet 16. After three playa
took the ball back to the 21, Bozik
faded, but failed to find a receiver,
and then promptly darted through
his own left tackle to score standing up just as the fourth quarter
began. Mattison again split the
uprights to make it 14-7.
Clinch Contest
The Maroon marched again later in the period, but Rutgers held
four downs on the 20. A holding
penalty shot the lads from New
Brunswick back to the nine. On
third down Bill Whitacra tried to
pass from his end zone, and Kozichek and Mike McCooey promptly
dropped him there to add some
icing to the cake.
Statistically, the Maroon led in
the first downs, 15-7 and in yards
rushing, 273-118. The Eastonians
were also superior through the
air by 30 yards to 11, and in punting average, 34 yards to 32.
RIFLE TEAM

Princeton was forced to cancel the
meet because her rifle range is

"The Geology Department of the Lafayette College
was host to over 100 members of the Mineralogieal Society of Pennsylvania last Sunday, announced Dr. Arthur
Montgomery, geology department.
On Sunday morning, a field trip went to the Royal
Green Marble Co. quarry. Many fine crystal specimens
were brought back and the expedition was considered a
great success.
That afternoon, the guests examined L a f a y e t t e ' s mineral
collection and attended a semiannual meeting in which current
business was discussed. Dr. James
Dyson, geology department head,
addressed the assembly and welcomed the guests. Following his
speech. Dr. Montgomery gave a
talk on the ties between a mature
and professional mineralogist. He
stressed the importance of trying
to get as much useful knowledge
as possible out of their work; even
though their interest may only be
small.
The Mineralogieal Society was
founded 15 years ago, and now has
a membership of 353. This society
is now widely spread over the
country and has succeeded in stimulating a great deal of interest in
the field of geology.

evil wholesale. How can we say
that we Americans are less deserving of punishment than the Russians, merely because we claim
to be Christians?
Protection
Tradition holds that we must
protect God with our institutions,
but it is God that protects tis.
Our tradition of protecting God
by killing all of the truth-flnders
such as Christ and Galileo is like
the Indian who tried to protect
Pike's Peak from destruction by
picnickers, using only a spear. Our
physical powers are fruitless if
they merely change a man's actions but not his heart. He who
yields to these physical powers is
merely a coward.
We say men die in battle for
our country, but really these men
die to kill as many foreign men
as they can slaughter. All this
slaughter to find peace, and it never comes; war has failed in the
past and will fail in the future also. But Christ hasn't failed us.
The Roman Empire died long ago
regardless of its mighty physical
power; but Christ still lives on.
His only weapon being His heart.
What are we to do then? We
can follow the leader we truly
believe in, namely Christ. We can
find His ideas and follow them by
reading the Scripture. What the
crowd thinks or what the tradition
says doesn't matter. It's what you
believe that does patter.
Interpretations
After the sermon, while eating
dinner in the College Inn, Dr.
Crane inspired us with his personal history and his brilliant interpretation of the New Testament and Christian history. He
described Palestine's wretched condition of Christ's time by citing
the revolt failure of Judas the
Galilean, and interpreted Peter's
denial and Judas Iscariot's betrayal as typical human reactions. For
example, Judas, the most trusted
disciple of Jesus and the treasurer
of the group, knew that the Messiah would liberate Israel, but
thought in a materialistic or political way. Thinking he knew the
conditions and solution better than
anyone else, he tried to put Jesus

good taste and good manners of
fraternity life. The common courtesies of being good hosts to chaperones who are invited by the fraternity was another point he made.
Bell soon proposed a three-fold
program. The first suggestion was
to eliminate poor social conduct.
In his second point he recommended that each fraternity set up certain minimum standards of behavior, enforced by the officers. He
concluded his proposal by suggesting that a Standard Committee be
drawn up by the IFC to encourage continuation of the former
points, working towards a Social
Code of Honor.

His power for political control.
To do this, Judas accepted a small
bribe from the priests to make
the deal look official, and led the
procession to Jesus, expecting to
see His power used at any moment.
But when Jesus failed to protect
Himself, Judas realized his mistake and hung himself.
Also Dr. Crane told us how
Christians first became soldiers under Constantine,

war was the worst possible solution to today's problems, and advised us to become conscientious
