CER i l and Bob Behr look on. LEFT-Gary Meyer balances ball on toe while elbowing opponent. CENTER-Tom Malanchuk and Dave Sheri- dan scramble for ball with three Kings Point- ers. through four goals in the Hnal period against reserve goalies Jer- ry Hopper and John Dina, while starting Goaltender VanBrunt sat out watching the moves of the Blackbirdls All-American can- idate for that position. Maritime never had a prayer against, the powerful Long Is- landers, being without the services of defensive stalwarts Thompson, Sweeney, and Wilkins. Only Paul Mason and Sheridan's fine play kept the 9-O final score from reaching epidemic proportions. C. W. Post took advantage of the Privateers inexperienced de- fensemen three times and added another goal against the regular backfield, in defeating the Marin- ers, 4-1, October 26, on New- port Field. Wilkins, Thompson, M a s o n, and Sweeney carried the defen- sive burden for Goalie VanBrunt perfectly until with only 2:10 re- maining in the first half Stan Johnson tallied off a pileup in front of the goal. Mike Schirmacher put the game on ice for Post during the ensuing quarter, booting two home within 1:15. Schirmacher's first came on a pass from Roy Garmen at 7:52. SCHMOLOTOCA V E R S US MASON AT PRATT XValter Schmolo-toca, Pratt In- stitute's All-American linesman poured across five goals for the defending conference champions in leading them to an 8-O vic- tory over Schuyler, October 19. Maritime didnlt have a chance against the best defensive team in New York City. Despite their slim margin at the halfway mark, Pratt showed their championship play with perfectly executed defensive and offensive maneu- vers. Schmolotocals stinging penalty kicks and head goals gave Pratt the momentum to tally five times in the final period, four of those coming against Vanderwarkeris second team within ten minutes. Only Masonls fine defensive performance against Schmolotoca, 69 during the forty minute span that he guarded him, kept the brilliant booter from scoring at will from the Held. The Privateers ran aground against Kings Point for the third year in a row, 5-2, October 12, on Newport Field. Stuart, one of the few bright spots on Schyuler's squad, saved the Mariners from total ruin, tal- lying twice in the final quarter, once unassisted and the other on a pass from Halfback Pendzick. Kings Point opened fast. Tak- ing advantage of the wind, with superior skill and hustle, they crashed the net for three goals in the first period. Mike Bellomo drew first blood, then Don Swei- gart tallied, and at 14:54 Norman Weld added another. Weld and Sweigart also scored with the wind in the third period giving the Point some insurance. QUEENS ON TOP, 6-I Slamming across four goals in the final period, three within 4:15, Queens College trounced the soccermen, 6-1, October 5, on the Queens Field. The contest yielded Queens its first victory in league play, while the Privateers suffered their sec- ond consecutive conference loss, the first coming at the hands of Adelphi College, 6-1, October 2. The Mariners also threatened Adelphi for the first half. With 6:45 remaining before halftime Sandberg cut Adelphi's lead to one, 2-1, following a combina- tion pass from Malanchuk and Dreyer. Beyond that, however, it was all Adelphi. They added three in the third period and struck once in the final frame, while effectively holding the Privateers. Center Forward Wilkins and Malanchuk, playing out of the in- side position, tallied two goals apiece in leading the club to a 4-2 opening day victory over the Long Island Aggies, at German Stadium, September 28. The victory appeared to set the pace for bettering last year's 1-7 -2 mark.

FE CING Despite five consecutive defeats last season at the hands of New York University, St. John's University, Cooper Union, Fordham University and Brooklyn Polytechnic In- stitute, foiler captain Eugene McAvoy looked forward to- ward the 1964 season optimistically. He founded his hopes on an experienced squad composed of Steve Gabrys, Robert Schmitt, and Brian Mangan in the foil event, Epeemen McAvoy, Denny Schroeder, and Frank Mangan, and Sabremen Joe Gustafson, Casey Wood- ka, Al Paris and Bob Pellegrino. Last year, Woodka, Gabrys, Gustafson, and McAvoy paced the fencers in their first competitive season with respective records of 8-4, 8-4-, 6--3, and 7-5. In one early scrimmage this year, the parriers, coached by the world famous instructor Bela Csajaghy, downed St. Peter's College of Jersey City, 17-10. Gabrys broke the ice with a quick victory in a foil match while three teammates followed in suit, giving the Priva- teers a gaping lead. St. Peter's was not to be bumped off that easily, however, and rallied in the remainder of the foil events and in the epee contests to close the margin. It wasn't until Gustafson, in the third round of the sabre bouts, defeated his opponent that Maritime accumulated its fourteenth point and was assured a victory. This year's schedule includes contests with Pace College, Fordham University, Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute, Long Island University and St. John's University. GOLF Strengthened by the return of Fred Lobbin, the club- men are almost a sure bet to improve upon last year's 1-2 record. The only curve in the golfer's path is the academic loss of Brian Lingenfelter, last year's captain and number one man. Lobbin, who missed most of last year because of an in- jury, was one of the Big Three on the previous seasonis team and is expected to supply enough scoring punch to bring the anemic golfers home with a respectable record. After winning their initial contest against the Long Is- land Aggies, 5-1 last year, with Reggie Sjokvest and Jim Johnson turning in acceptable winning rounds of 82 each, the clubmen bowed to Hofstra University, 13-5, and Iona College, 4-O. The Mariners, led by Lobbin, Sjokvest, and Harry Thranhart, placed nineteenth in the Metropolitan Inter- collegiate Championships, competing against twenty-one other schools. jUDO Organized three years ago by members of the graduat- ing class, the Judo Club originally began as a self defense club, its members being instructed in Judo, Jiu Jitsu, and Karate by a third degree Black Belt Judo expert, Mr. Visi- tacion. Judo was initially practiced as a pastime, but as time marched on the pastime gradually changed into a serious sport, terminating late last year in intercollegiate compe- tition. Judo matches are three minutes long, the object being to throw your opponent off balance and onto the mat. Points are awarded according to the way the opponent lands on the mat, the most points coming when he lands on his back. The present club consists of thirty-five members and is still growing. It sports as its president, Bob Bauernfeind, who along with Charles Brader, Charles Boykin, Roy Wrenn, George Clements, George Saccio Cwho holds a brown belt in Jiu Jitsuj, and John Hall wear green belts. Those in yellow belt competition include Dave Munger, Tom Rodg- ers, Dick Dreyer, and Bob Atwell. The remainder of the clubis members have white belts. The Judo Team proved its potential in intercol- legiate competition by defeating the previously unde- feated West Point team, 20-17. This year's schedule in- cludes meets with the New York Athletic Club, West Point, Seton Hall, Queens College, and City College. YEWWU Playing a rough seven game schedule against far super- ior opponents, the Varsity Tennis Team, coached by Lieu- tenant Gino Gallina, closed out its 1963 season without a victory. Led by Richard Bingman and Bill Preeg, the team started its season against one of the best teams in the Metropolitan Area, Adelphi College, and came out at the short end of the stick, 9-0. Despite fine performances by Preeg, Bob Gilman, and Bill Miller in the singles competi- tion and a rallying win by Bill Hall and Sam Peters in a doubles match, the netmen fell before the rackets of Yeshiva University, 5-4. The netmen dropped another thriller in their next outing to Long Island University, 5M-3b. Preeg, Gilman, Miller, and Mike Walter tallied for Mari- time. Following a disheartening 9-0 shutout by Hunter Col- lege, the racketmen bowed to Pratt, 6-3, and Queens College, 7-2.
