Grady Hi in Initial Start Tech's freshman cagers had to leave their home court Wednesday afternoon for their first game of the • season, but they brought back from the Henry Grady High court a 36-26 victory over their hosts. S Bob Reidel sparked the Engineers with 8 points and his heads-up floor play, but Chuck Navia and Bennie Register each tallied 7 markers and were very much in the battle all the 44-1T- way. Coach J. C. Hyder sent in Navia and Curly Cunningham at the forward slots, Reidel at center, and in can count Register and Jack Owens, guards, to start the fracas.

Owens drew first blood with a 4. charity shot to start a score-starved on Chesterfield's first period which ended with the count knotted at 5 all. Chuck Navia found the hoop early in the second frame • and the Junior Jackets went ahead ABC's to give you to stay. Jay Milam and Cunningham contributed a large part to the Tech victory and showed up outstandingly on both offense and defense. 'The second half was packed with fireworks as the Grady Knights a grand smoke" ti threatened to take the lead at several points and only by virtue of long, looping shots were the Techsters able to hold their advantage. The third quarter ended with the White and Gold out in front 26=20. Tillman and Turk led the prep cagers, the former dropping in 10 points to emerge as high point man LORETTA YOUNG for the contest.

Bowling (Continued from page 6) ma appear to be pretty strong this year with Beta Theta Pi not yet having a real test. In the Gold League it looks like Phi- Gamma Delta, Delta Sigma Phi, and Pi Kappa Phi have the know-how. Although it is much too early to really tell, these teams rolled the best games on opening night. Bowling against each other, Metzger of Sigma Chi and Ayers of Alpha Tau Omega rang up the high games of the evening. Metzger had 142 and Ayers 135. Looking at Friday's schedule, only one important match is on the docket. • That is between Alpha Tau Omega and Sigma Alpha Epsilon. Both teams are undefeated. If Monday's games are any criterion, the remaining un- beaten fraternities should keep their records clean. Awards To Be Given Jack Pearce, who runs the Lucky Strike Alleys, will donate the trophies again this year. Ti ,re will be a cup to the winning fra.3rnity, a cup to the high individual scorer, and an award to each member of the championship team in the form of a mina- ture bowling pin to be worn on the watch chain.
