Friday. May l. ma Baseball Team loses Two Games; To Take on Cornell By Jack Harrod’ Trying to break out of a sell one hitting slump which has plagued them most of the sea- son, Grinnell’s baseball squad plays host to Cornell tomorrow in a twin bill beginning at 1:00 pm. Only the first game will count towards conference stand- logs. The Pioneers. who had. ear- lier shown some signs of being ' a pennant contender in the MCAC Southern Division, ran up against two iron»man pitch- ers last weekend and dropped all three contests. The losses moved Grinnell to third place in the divisional standings with a .428 percentage. Harold Wertich of Monmouth went all 16 innings against the Scarlet a week ago to pick up the win in a 7-2 decision In- cluded in this marathon were 13 consecutive hitless frames by the Scot hurler. Cal Collier, last of a trio of Pioneer pitch- ers. was tagged for the loss. Both Grinnell markers came in the first on a hunt, hit batsman, throwing error and Nick Nonas’ run-producing single. On April 25th Knox’s Doug Ziech matched Wertich's per formance by pitching both ends of a doubleheader and downing the Scarlet 471 and ti-q, Again. ' Nonas came through to drive in the lone Grinnell run with a base hit following Steve Tilly's wind-blown triple to'the wall in right. In the nightcap the Pioneers got runners around to third in three frames but left them stranded. As in the Monmouth contest, the Scarlet pitching was excellent with Denny Hanssen and Barry Anderson going the route, but spotty field- ing gave the Siwash crucial runs. Leading the Grinnell hitters at this point in the campaign is Dick Ulrich with a $19 aver- age. Ulrich has also knocked in 6 runs, Nonas. who leads the club in R. B. l.’s with 7, and John Sliierholz are both over the 300 mark. Pitching, the P i 0 rl e e r’s strongest department, is headed by Hanssen who has a 1.24 ERA and has struck out 44 batters in his 29 innings of work Hans- sen, 172 for the season, will get the nod in tomorrow's opener. Coach John Pfitsch’s other starter for the duo will be sophomore Steve Tilly, who tossed 6 innings against Mon- mouth and was touched for only one run. Backing up will be Anderson, leading the staff with 2 wms, and reliefer Col- lier. . Rounding out the Pioneer's lineup against the Rams in the first game will be Collier at. hrst,,Ulrich at second, Tilly at short, Phil King at third. and‘ Shierholz, Dave Synhorst and; Vern Robinson in the outfield. If Nonas, hobbled this week by n jammed heel. is unable to. catch then Robinson will switch to backstop and Steve Farber, will go into right. i sharpshooiing Marsha Smith. draws a bend on the Scarlet and Black photographeri Miss Smith has been sll oi titles in compel ng since n. Fig. Seven Sharpshooling Sophomore Follows Dad, Wins Trophies, Titles in Rare Hobby For her competitive shooting Marsha uses a Winchester 52, a smallbore .22 caliber gun. There are four ratings is competitive shooter can have and Marsha already has three of them. in 1960 she received her marks- man rating; in 1962 her sharp- shooter rating; and in 1963 her expert rating. If she can get in enough practice she hopes to have her mas‘ter‘rating by next year. Since practicing in the city of Des Moines is frowned on, Marsha has to drive thirty miles to Van Meter, Iowa, to practice. She usually goes about twrce a week in the sum- mer. \ When asked why she enjoys shooting, Marsha mentioned travel. Then she said, "We spend the whole day outside and just shoot constantly. in any weather, sunny and hot, windy, rainy, cold, we keep on shooting!" ‘CARLET AND BLACK By Pam Clay A sophomore coed who is a crack rifle shot? Yes. and right here on Grinnell campus! Marsha Smim, Haines Hall, started shooting in 1956. “My older brother didn’t shoot at all so Dad was real happy when l showed an interest," Marsha laughed “There are very iew women interested in shooting.” Mr. Smith's business is the lCI-X Manufacturing Company which makes hunting coats and other similar articles; Mr. Smlth also shoots and Marsha: accompanies him to various matches around the state. In her eight years of shootui ing Marsha has amassed a small collection of titles. in 1962 she was on the Iowa State Team (comprised of the top, ten shooters in the state); in 1961 and l962 she was Iowa State Woman’s Champion; and in 1963 she was the Minnesotal State Woman’s Champion. Grinnell College sophomore. 1955 and has amassed a host 4 Animal Life -:- By Don Kurasch ‘ First, an important bulletin: As a result of last week’s edi— torial in the 5&3 regarding paths being trodden across Grinnell's ”green expanses.” 1M baseball players playing on either Mac or the 10th Avenue fields are asked to survey the base paths before getting up to the plate. It the batter notices a definite lack of green along these base paths and ii the bat ter accidentally gets hit he is asked to try to avoid runningy directly along these paths and> instead should skip daintily around these bare lanes with as much haste as the hitter deems necessary. in fairness to these consider- ate hall players the opposing infielders are asked to take their time fielding the ball and throwing to first. This will help One positive factor in partic- ipating in shooting matches is the chance to travel. Marshai has traveled east as far as Oan' to compete and she competed in‘ Bunny Hunt and Sue Taylor the Sharpshooters of Rocky have entered Theta Sigma Phi; Mountain Regional Match inllohn Woli has been elected to Colorado in 1962. lsigma Delta Chi. Three new members hav. been selected by the t campus journalism fraternities; preserve the aesthetic beauty of our ”green expanses.” Thank you. (As far as the ”new field" is concerned, there’s not much anyone can do to help that thing, anyway.) Raw Deal of the Week award goes to East by unanimous Ile~ cision of the judges. They were allowed to play four innings throughout last Monday’s rain (which constitutes a completed game) only to have the game called with the bases loaded and no outs, just as the rain was obviously letting up. At the time they were behind 52. thus losing to Smith. That game ls now under protest with WW, the IM board, as is an old game with North and Cowles. The standings haven’t changed much since last week, with Dibble and South still at the top of the animal heat.
