JON STEIN, ERIC JAl-EN and Oscar Rattenborgappear determined in ther preparation for the loop meet. Harriers Place Third At Coe Eric John Takes Top Honors Eric "the Quick" Jahn led Grinnell’s not-so-jolly jog~ gers to an overall third place finish in the Coe Invitational at Cedar Rapids. Eric took top long distance runner hon— ors on the muddy course last Friday. Grinnell finished bee hind St. Ambrose and Dubuque as the rest ofrhe team seemed to be on a "downer” for the meet. Grinnell was listed asa very strong contender; but with junior star Chuck “Short- cut" McGrath ailing, the team is losing a high finisher. The way the members fin- ished: Jahn lat, McGrath 6th. Russell 11th. Frank 14th. Mendenhall 19th, Oscar 24th, Stein 26th. To save their strength, they have cancelled their skirmish with Ripon this week.

What ever hap- pened to do or die for "01’ Grinny"? Alas . Why not Ric Mc Doodle? - - Hermes THE SCARLET AND BLACK October 29, 1970 GriddersContinue To Roll, 22-21 The Big Red apparently likes to play the close onesand give everybody coronaries. Or maybe the Pioneers like to prove that they can win in the clutch, that they can come up with the Big Play whenever they have to. Last week they did it against nonrconference foe Beloit (non~ conference be cause, contrary to conferen— ce rules, Beloit is playing fre cshmen on the varsity foot- ball squad this year due to a lack of varsity bodies), by the miniscule margin ofonepoint, 22-21. It looked as though Grinnell would blow this game apart early, as Darling Bill Dicks picked off a pass from Bel‘ oit's Jim Nitz on the fourth play of the game. Shortly th- ereafter, Gorgeous Gary Jo- hnson found Mafia Jim Firolr li in the endzone witha seven- yard strike. When placer kick— er Twinkle-toes Roy Lewis missed the extra point, the score was 6-0, Pioneers.Tw- inkle-toes, in making right his wrong, then put the kick- off into the end zone, where Beloit's receivers tried a handroff and reverse. HowV Pink Toy Falls Again The Freshman Football team has done it againi Capping a perfect season, with an un‘ blemished Win Column, the preps were defeated by Coe in their season's finale, 404). This was definitely a moral victory after last week’s fiasco of a 76-0 rout by the Knox preps. An unblemished win column was not all this undaunted squad is the pos- sessor of. It also is unble- mished in their number of points scored in one season, 0. A defensive record was set also in that 149 points were scored against them. This breaks the record of 121 points,‘ set by the laSt 0-3 prep squad of 1966. Deceivingly, there are some good players on this team. Especially the linemen, who will add greatly to nextyear's team, according to Coach B07 were. All in all, this team Phone 236-3197 showed how the game is real- ly supposed to be played, just for fun. Losing is not as much fun as winning though. ELI... Step up to JD’S RESTAURANT 922- 1/2 Main Moanat. s to 10pm. Sunday-Noon to 10 p.m. BATES FLORIST 1012 Broad ,— ever, the reverse was foiled when the Big Red Machine's kick~off team displayed rare speed and tackled Beloit's re- turn man in the end-zone for a safety, to run the score to 870. Grinnell then took the ensuing free kick and drove in for another score, with the big play being a 37-yard bomb from G.G. to Henry “the F1- ash" Corona in the end zone. This time, the PAT was good and the Homecoming Wreck- ers were on top 15-0. In the second quarter, Beloit was driving, only to have Jef— fie Dick pick off a Nitz pass on the Grinnell eight and lum~ her all the way for a TD. Ber loit, however, mme rightback to score, Nitz throwing 29 yards to Dick Bartolomei for the home team's second tour chdown. The first half ended with Grinnell up 22-15. The fourth quarter was so- mewhat wilder, as Grinnell's offense failed to score any- more, but Beloit’s did not. With 6:21 left in the game, their QB smashed over from the one. Beloit then went for all the marbles and a two point conversion. This time, however, they were stopped short and the score remained 22*21, Grinnell. Grinnell then killed four and a halfminutes, but Beloit wasn’t through yet. They mounted their finaldrive of the day, and had victory in their grasp, when the Pione eer’s great defense came up with their fourth Big Play: Mafia Jim picked off a Nitz pass in the end zone with 21 seconds left. IT’S All TOGETHER The Big Red Machine facesa severe test this Saturday asil meets the Redmen of Ripon. Last year, Grinnell stungRip- on with a relatively easy vic— tory. It willne’erbe sosimple this time around. However, with the Pioneers' penchant for pursuing the close ones, and winning them, they won't exactly be blown off the field, either. Grinnell is fully mp“ able of making the Big Play. The Pioneers should pull it out, 20-18.
