TUESDAY, MAY 24, 1988.

By Vince Jllurphy Many fine comments have come to Father F. J. H arbauer, Director of Athletics, about the souvenir program of St. Viator published by the Monogram Club. We take the liberty of p rinting in part the praise extended by two <.. : t he many congratulators.

Fred Young, sports edi tor of the Bloomington Pantagraph, has been a stalwart friend of St. Viator for the past quarter century has th e fo llowing to say about the program: " l want to con gratulate you on an excellent j ob well done. I am sur e that every St. Viator man and every friend of the college will appreciate th is and treasure it throug h the years, for it is an exceptional job if I am a judge.

"I am sure that it will come in handy a hundred times during the years, and .~.. w ill occupy a top post on my desk where I can get at it frequently so you may see considerable of thi s duplicated from time to t ime in my column, as it is replete wi t h interesting tidbits of Viator history.

"I assur e you that I a,ppreciate this, and I want t o convey my deep appreciation to its editors."

Yours very cordiall y, Fred Young.

Joe Harrington , '27, now in the employ of the Federal Government and a resident of Flu sh! ng, New York, offers this commendation : "Many fi n e things have com e from Viator, however, without quali1i<:a tion the 1938 Journal t opped everything.

'l'IIE VIATORIAN

In a meet that saw only one n ew record se t because of adverse weath er conaition s, the upperclassmen retained the "Little Brown Jug," trophy emblematic of Interclass athle tic supremacy, on the th ird Annual Parents' Day, May 17, by a score of 87-53. The athletiC carnival also saw Danny Blazevich, DeKalb,'s accomplished Croat crowned Physical Education champ for the year.

Blazevich won the title by beating out versatile Eddie O'Connor, Chicago sophomor e, and Jack Clarl<., freshman aquatic s tar, who each compiled thirteen points to th e fo urt een piled up by Blaz.

O'Connor, tryi ng desperately for the necessary points to cap ture the beautif ul trophy donated by the Rev. Dr. E. V. Cardin a l, decided a t th e last minute to enter the swimm ing and diving events; a long p eriod of absence from competition in these sports proved to be Eddie's downfall. Howeve r , Eddie and Clark were. awarded duplicate trophi es for being high point men for their r espective classes.

Roy Dusenbury, Kankakee freshman football star was Clark's closest competitor, rolling up twelve points in the track events.

Dilger Sets Record Competition was begun in the morning because of th e large number of entries with the fin als of the discus, s hot, and broad jump. being h eld.

Eddie Dilger set the only new record when he soared 21 feet, five inches in the broad jump, a feat that was made more remarkable because of the soggy condition of the ground. Dick Fotre placed second in this event and also cr acked the old mark h eld by Abe Robin sky.

Blazevich started on his victory march by taking a first p lace in the sho t put w ith a heave of 43 feet, five inches. The upperclassmen scored a clean sweep in this event with Bob Schumacher, P at Ryan, and Dan Ward, following B lazevich in that order. Red Zelen cik sco red a first in the disc us, throwing the plate 122 feet and was followed by Bob Bates, B lazevich, a n d Pat Ryan, the last three all upperclassmen.

O'Connor Wins Mile O'Connor began t o pile up his point s in th e first event of the af ternooD. by winning the mile run from a trio of freshme n. He led his n earest competitor, John Mulvaney, across the finish line by more than half a lap. Jerry McLaughlin and Frank Bloom finished third and fourth, respectively.

Don Faber won the high jump for the second straight year with the bar at five feet, seven inches, In

compliments or

but was given close competition by Bill Walsh, a surprise e ntrant who did not miss until the crosspiece reached five feet, seven inches. B laz picked up a third and Zelencik a fourth p lace in this event.

Blaz Wi1as Hurdles A I Haworth tied 1'ony Tortorello's mark in the 100 yard dash In the time of 10.1 seconds. This even t ended in a lmost a dead hea t but th e finish judges picked AI over Roy Dusenbury by a s llgh t margin. A new record would probably have bee n set up under more favorable conditions. Paul Cashman and Dick Fotre of the upperclassmen came in third and fourth, in that order.

B lazevich retained his 60 yard low hurdles titl e by beating Dusenbury. rat Ryan, and Fred Cashman.

O'Connor came home the winner in t he 880 for the second consecutive year. Owen Cooke was second, Bill Cahill third," and John Mulvaney fourth. , Swimmers Not in S h ap e The upper classmen picked up a large number of points in the swimming events which took place earlier than scheduled because the h eavy downpow· forced the cancellation of the remaining track and field events. Although no new records were established, mainly bec~use the natators had had no chance to train for the meet, this phase of the competition was one of the mast enjoyable of the day.

Sam DeBack won th e 50 yard free style, with Vince M urphy sec· ond, Sulo Siekkinen third, and Paul Cashman fourth. Myron Heintzman splashed home the winner in the 50 yard breast strok e, beating Willie Dixon and Vince Murphy.

Jack Clark took the 25 yard back stroke in a thrilling finish from Willie Dixon.

Siekkinen was third and DeBack unished fourth. Val Melto lonig swam a beautiful race emerge the victor in the 1 00 yard free s tyle race. Clark was second and Eddi~ O"Connor picked up 2 points for third place. Clark cinched the freshman trophy by snaring t h e diving championship.
