FOOTBALL
AWARDS ARRIVE
wmK
(Explanation of the symbols are
C-Company, 2 platoon and etc.)
S C is Ships Company.
The P. T. instructors started)
the tournament and a game is
played on Wednesday, Thursday
and Fridays at 4 o’clock. A sched-
uled game is 5 innings, 7 innings
will be played if there is time
but usually the game is called at
5 innings because of chow. It is
a round robin type tournament.
Every team plays every other
team once. With ten teams in the
league the tournament will be over
some time in June, and the win-
ner will receive a picnic for their
dates and themselves. Also no
varsity men are eligible to play
in the intramurals, that is men
who have earned an “S”. The win-
ner of the Navy tournament has
extended a challenge to the win-
ner of the civilian softball intra-
murals, or the two top teams of
the navy can have a round robin:
with the two tops of the civilians.
Now I would) like to give you
a few short notes about some of
the softball players. A. M. Bick-
ham seems to be the best pitcher
in the league, he plays for the
C-2 team. (The leaders). Also P.
K. Harrison is a good pitcher.
The best hitter in the league is
W. L. Burgess from the A-l team
(who is running second in the
league). J. E. Armstrong, and
Commander Howe gets some good
hits but never can make it to
base; he turns in to sick bay after
every game, (joke)! I’m sure the
sharp rivalry among the teams
and the capable players on the
team would be exciting games to
watch, so come 4 o’clock on Wed-
nesday,. Thursday, and Friday why
not drift around to the softball
diamond1 behind the gym and see
some good games.
The Pirate football awards, or-
dered last December by Coach
Medley and the athletic council,
have finally arrived, and delivered.
The sweaters are of black 100%
wool, cardigan type, with a gold
“S” on the left front side.
They arrived at the Business
office several days ago, and within
a space of a couple of hours, were
distributed to the different boys.
Former Gridsters
Visit
Ernest O. “Pappy” DeWald
visited the campus again last Wed-
nesday afternoon. DeWald, a vet-
eran of three years with the Pi-
rate grid eleven, saw friends, and
before leaving got his sweater, his
second letter-award in football.
Also visiting the campus was
Larry Cesmirosky, another form-
er footballer of ’45.“Ces” left the
school early this semester, and his
visit came as a pleasant surprise
to his friends.
Ralph Poteet, hardly recogni-
zable in khaki, also paid a visit.
Ralph has been in the army only a
few short weeks.
P. E. Majors and
Minors Meet
S. U. Enters Team
In Conference Tennis
The team of John Lundblad
and Edwin Spann, represented
Southwestern last week in the
tennis tournament of the Texas
Conference.
This is the third time the Pi
rates have entered into inter-col-
lege competition. Previously, the
Buc’s have played two matches
with Trinity University, of San
Antonio.
The Majors and! Minors of the
P. E. department had a called
business meeting Wednesday eve-
ning, May 8, for the purpose of
reorganizing for the coming year.

elected: President-Lottie Boyd;
Vice President—Daphane Fowler,
Secretary— Martha Tumlinson,

porter and Scrapbook—Trudy Ev-
ans.
A farewell banquet was planned
for the evening of June 5, naming
as honor guests the four P. E.
graduating majors.

the banquet are:
Decorations, Nell Buiee.
Bucs Take Dual Affair With Ease
As Preparatory For Conference Meet
Southwestern University, in its
third meet of the season, racked
up eleven first places and tied
for another to devestate the Me
Murry Indians 77-37 in a dual
track meet in Abilene last May 4th.
The meet was the final warmup
for the Pirates, who entered the
Texas Conference Meet last Fri-
day at ACC.
The Pirates had three double
winners-Otis Budd in the 440 and
880, Robert Coleman in both hurd-
les, and Kenneth Goetzel in the
pole vault and the broad! jump.
Budd ami Goetzel tied for high
point man with 11 1/4 points each.
Coleman second with 10, and Ev-
ans third with 9 1/4.
Copping all first places except
the shot discus, and 220, the Bucs
displayed a well balanced team,
with a slight weakness in the
weight department. Both the mile
and sprint relay teams won their
races by appreciable distances.
The Abilene Reporter News ac-
corded Southwestern’s lanky red-
head, Ted Bare with having reg-
istered the best performance of
the evening, with a javelin toss
of 172 feet, 5 1/2 inches.
Menu, Martha Gruenwaldt.
Program, Bernice Nelson, Pat
Brabham.
M. C., Lottie Boyd.
All majors and! minors are urged
to attend the next meeting May
22 at 6:39 O. E. S.—Sponsor—
