In both the 1953-'54 and 1954-'55 seasons the team was un- defeated in league competition. This season's record presently stands at 9 wins and I loss. This one defeat gives the team a four year record of 56 Wins and 3 losses, with 8 matches still to be fired this season. The Maroon Sharpshooters are in a good position to retain the St. Iohn's Invitational Tournament Trophy which they won last year. The team also expects to better it's national standing, 24th in this yearis National Intercollegiate Rifle Matches. A four man team of Harper, Burns, Fiorentino and Bernasconi entered the William Randolph Hearst Trophy Match in April, 1955 and broke the match record. On the next day of firing, however, one of the open teams exceeded the total. Fordham still re- ceived four gold medals for being the high college team. Jim Harper has been a member of the All-Star Rifle Team since his Fresh- man year. This year, among 300 competitors, Harper is third, Burns, fifth and Fiorentino is moving into the top ten. Ray Pohl, Ron Pernasconi and Carl Szuter appear to be headed for Ram stardom. Their firing will be backed up by Frank Mellana, Joe Pianpiano and Charlie Smith. Freshmen, Don Moore and Pete Hardy have firing scores of varsity caliber and will round out next year's Maroon squad. 5. ' , 3 ... wa, 5 Q. V. ,vs ttagsf fat., . ps. I Lx - :fa .

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

Hampered by little practice which was the result of in- adequate fencing facilities on Campus, the Fencers have, however, shown great fighting spirit and the one win, five lost record does not tell the whole story. The team has con- tinuously improved and it is hoped that they will triumph over Stevens Institute, Newark and Rutgers the remaining scheduled matches, thus bettering the year's record. The individual students in the different divisions this year were Robert Gottlieb, who has an impressive thirteen wins and four losses to his credit in Foil. In the Sabre Class Co-Captain Manuel Borcini has improved his last year,s record with a 12 and 6 record. Bill Driscoll, Paul Berman, Carl Szuter and the other members have made the team no pushover.
