Vet'- non’s Cornell Relays last Saturday as the Pioneers took eighth in a field of twelve schools. Overcoming strong bids by SCI and Central, Luther College won the team trophy, Grinneli’s cause was hurt by lack at good periormances in the field events and poor baton passes in the sprint medley. Captain Jeri Lang- ham remained the foundation of the Grinneli team as he led the two-mile relay team of MacDowell, Kelsey, Brint- nail, to a third place iinish. Langham again led the mile relay (Watt, Schwartz, Brintnall) to a second place iinish. Along with Jon Busweli’s iiith in long jump, these relay teams were Grinnell's only point winners at the day. Both the varsity and trash teams move to Cedar Falls and the Dickinson Relays this weekend where, though the competition will be at least as strong, they hope to improve their showing. error by the Cornell left fielder.

The L’mox Siwashers were fresh from a drubbing by Monmouth. and the Grinnell players’ spirits were “high," The game turned out to be a pitcher‘s dual between Grinnell’s Dean and Knox’s Litney. The first sixnandra-half innings were scoreless as neither team could tally although both had several chances, Scores in Seventh Finally in the bottom of the seventh, an infield error, a sacrifice bunt, a walk, and a one-bagger produced a run {or the Siwash, The Pioneers came right back in the next frame with a marker to tie the score.

The first one was to powerlul Carleton 9-D while sr. Olat squeaked by 54 when they took three doubles matches to overcome a 4-2 singles deficit.

Three teams now have one loss— Smith, Dibble, and Clark. Smith and Dib« ble have already lost to East while Clark lost to Dibble and was scheduled to play East this aiternoonr The biggest game or the year'came , Tuesday when an overly-confident crew from Smith ran into the East Grinder. While the East tans watched as their ’ boys careiully kept the score down, by making many errors, so as not to make a rout of the game. the Smith ians glumiy sat on the sideline and watched their buys slowly fall from the ranks Hi the un- deieated. By their and others' admission, Smith had a tough team. They had iirebali- ing Henry wingate on the mound, and such potent hitters as Jim Randall to back hiln up. But Wingate could not fire the ball past the East batters and Ran- dall only managed one hit. East got behind in the iirst inning 4-1, but the East fans were not Worried because East had been behind early in tour oi its tirst iive games. in the second inning East started roll- ing. Normally a singles hitter, Coach Jim Wilson slammed a three-run homer past the astonished iett fielder to tie the score. Later in that inning, East took the lead they never gave up. With Steve Casey spearheading the attack with three hits, and left-handed hurier Greg Rankin mowing down the Smith bat- ters, East took a 14-7 lead into the bot< tom of the seventh. After Rankin be- came a little wild on the mound and East made a couple of errors, Ken Sturbler, ace relieier on the East staff, came in to preserve the 14—11 victory. Smith then dropped to a three-way tie {or second With powerful Dibble and Clark. Dibble, since their opening loss to East, has looked like the toughest oi the three. Among their wins is a 17-2 shellacking of Clark. Clark's four wins have come against second division opponents so it is tough to evaluate their potential. Gollum’ Service dry, STANDARD
