five pounds underweight and “plain
tired out.”
The shot put meet record came
from Parry O’Brien, also of South
ern California, and traveled 57 feet,
% inches. The old record of 57
feet, 5/8 inch also belonged to
O’Brien. It was set last year. But
it’s not his best for he has a 59
feet, 2 3/8-inch throw, made ear
lier this year, up for recognition
as a world mark.
The only double win of the meet
finals went to Jack Davis, Southern
California’s hurdler, who took the
highs in :14 and the lows in :23.3,
both easily. Davis’ work, with that
of O’Brien, Iness and a crew of
other fine lads, resulted in a romp
to a fifth straight NCAA team
title for the coast school.
The western outfit rang up 80
points to 41 for Illinois, the sec
ond place team.
A real surprise was the defeat
of Charlie Capozzqli of George
town in the two-mile by Rich Fer
guson of Iowa, Big Ten champ, who
ran the Easterner into the ground
to win handily.
Day Students Lead
First Week Softball
With the completion of the first
week of summer intramural soft-
ball, the Day Students team, coach
ed by enthusiastic “Stormy” Walk
er, may be the team to beat be
cause of its “Murderer’s Row” of
heavy hitters.
The opening day, Monday, saw
close ball games; Project Houses
squeezing by Mitchell 9 to 8 and
Law winning a close one from Pur-
year 5 to 4. For Project Houses,
Philip Brunett made two outstand
ing catches; one a high, leaping
thriller to stop an apparent home
run. Herbert W. Warren pitched
a fast but losing ball game and
will be hard to beat when he im
proves his control.
A feature of the Law-Puryear
battle was John Bomba’s bases
loaded double, which scored three
runs in the second inning. Coach
Jerry Johnson of Puryear got a
home run in the top of the fifth,
mut with no runners ahead of
him, it was not enough to win.
In a 13 to 11 ball game on Tues
day, the Day Students outlasted
Mitchell despite the good pitching
of Herbert Warren. Fred Brous
sard hit two for two, while W. G.
Blair got on base evei'y time at
bat and scored three times. Relief
pitching by Roy Dollar, though er
ratic in the early innings, accounted
for the win.
Puryear swamped the Project
'Houses in the second game 16 to
2. Frank Malch batted 1000 per
cent, getting three for three. Clete
Hardin showed the best pitching of
the week in allowing only five hits.
Philip Brunett covered left field
like a flood light and hit 2 for 2,
hitting a clean double and a single.
Coach Stegall hit 2 for 4 for the
losers.
Project Houses came back on
Wednesday to defeat Law Hall 14
to 10, the highlight for the losers

being James Compton’s home run
in the fourth inning. Stegall led
Project Houses hitting, getting 3
for 4, as did Brunett who was
brought in from left field to pitch.
Day Students won their second
game, swamping Puryear 15 to 7.
Broussard again was the big gun,
getting a bases loaded homer. He
also hit a double off pitcher Don
Shipe’s head. Broussard hit a line
drive which hit Shipe on the for-
head and bounced to right field.
Shipe went down like a hammered
ox, but came back to finish the
game. For the losers, Johns and
Richardson hit 1000 per cent.
