The Sailing Association this year was composed of seniors and sophomores and after completing a successful season, has high hopes for the future. The Varsity placed second in the Greater New York Championship besting such schools as Columbia, Hofstra, and the New York Mari- time College while the Freshmen placed third. Both Maroon squads won the right to go to the Middle Atlantic Championships at Annapo- lis for the first time in the history of the club. The Varsity also won back the trophy from the New York Maritime College in the annual team race between the two clubs. With the strong support of the Club by the undergraduates, Ford- ham has come into its own in the intercollegiate sailing world. With a strong Freshman team coming up to varsity status next year, the out- look for the sailors future is very bright. Ioe Sullivan capably took over the helm of the Club from Frank Schmitt, the Past Commodore, and was assisted by jerry Thornton, Vice Commodore. Captain Kids. 11 ,. -'sr AMW'

The team was determined to do all in its power to attain the coveted championship of the league, which, to this date, had never been attained by Fordham. This year found Fordham mainly comprised of an all veteran team. Re- turning from last year's squad were Tom Meenan, Chuck Santare, Ioe LaBocco, Bob Lekich and Art Upton. Adding to the power of the team were three newcomers in the person of Johnny McCormack and Sol Stern, who carried 180 averages, and Tom Wogan, who averages 170. The first week in October saw Fordham open the season against fifteen other leading college teams. Supposedly a weak sister, Fordham, in the first two months of competition, struck with its power and quickly became the dark horse team of the league by consistently challenging for first place. F airleigh Dickinson, the defending champions, and the rest of the league be- gan to respect and fear Fordham. Backed by great school interest in the team along with the consistent good bowling of Tom Meenan, Iohnny McCormack, Chuck Santare and Art Upton, the Barns gained much needed confidence in themselves and started What form. 262 to function like a championship team. About the middle of February, however, it became evident that Farleigh Dickinson, who had led the league the entire season followed by Fordham and Manhattan, was going to be too powerful to unseat from the cham- pions' throne. With this fact staring us in the face, the Rams decided to make sure they held on to the second rung. Second place is as high as Fordham has ever finished and it's been several years since that was last achieved. For the current team it represents a jump from tenth last year to second this year, which is a sizeable gain in any man's league. 1 Pause that refreshes. 11' Sw v' ' K .n:

P P ? men's mtizamulzal Bowlmo Surprisingly enough this organization is the largest body that con- gregates outside of classroom doors and after hours at the downtown School of Business. The Men's Intramural Bowling League meets once a week at the City Hall Bowling Alleys and not only provides much needed recreation for the approximately thirty-six members, but allows the members to meet and know other students that they ordinarily would not get to meet during the course of the school year. Using the handicap system, the teams must produce or a poorer team will forge out in front of one which is lax. Nine teams comprise the League indicating that one team must receive a bye each week, weaving a tight competitive standing, and making every fourth week a position week. In a position week a team bowls the one closest to it in the standing, another one of the reasons why the pace is furious and nerve-racking right up to the last tedious week of the twenty week bowling season. The League is climaxed with gay festivities at the annual Bowling Dinner. Trophies are at this time awarded to those individuals and teams who have earned them by proving their ability and sportsman- ship. The Hrst three teams receive a trophy and at the present time, the teams are so close that each one has a good chance to wind up on top. Last yearis champion Alley Cats, are leading, followed closely by the Ages, Tom Cats, Aces, New Rotics, Cool Cats, Debite, Bum- dums and Miller Cats. Individual honors are presented to those with the first five highest averages, the highest game, and the highest three game series. Charlie Santare, Joe LaRocca, Dick Cadigan, Joe Carger, John Traynor, Bob Lekich, Erich Augustin and Cary Locke are among those with their eyes on the high average trophies. Joe LaRocca has the high game so far and Dick Cadigan has made his nomination for the high series trophy with a neat performance. Special congratulations are in order for the League President, Charlie Santare, and his able staff of John Grill, Charles Hertgen and Joe Garger. We bid the former three success and proclaim a job well done, a job to be admired and aimed at in future years. 264
