During the week SGA President Ron Sampath; and Director of Food Services. Chris Miller had a disagree- ment about the lettuce served in the Student Center. Someone found an empty carton of lettuce from Califor- nia in the area and brought it to Mill- er s attention. When told it was scab lettuce. Miller replied. Is it really? Sampath asked for a ' . . . definitive word on this as soon as possible and cited action by the General Council as a possible solution to the matter. Upstairs in the second floor con- ference room, rumblings of a student strike against tuition hikes came from an organizational meeting. The Radi- cal Communications Club brought members of the Women ' s Collective, the Black Student Union and the Vets Association together to discuss the possible strike. They decided on a student rally for October I . Saturday. October 20, proved to be another bad day for athletics at WPC as the baseball, football, and soccer teams all lost their home games. The best showing came from the baseball team who lost to our rival Montclair State 3-1. Despite the defeat, Coach Albies was satisfied with the Pioneer performance. We had an excellent defense, only one error to their four, but we didn ' t cap- italize! ' It was a pitchers ' duel for most of the game, each team gave up only four hits, but walks hurt the Pioneers. WPC hurler. Hal Hermans, gave up four hits in six innings put- ting the winning scores on base for Montclair ' s first Inning three run homer. Walks also led to the Pio- neers ' lone score in the sixth when Jim Konel and Jose Rodriguez took two free bases. Bob Dreschel fol- lowed with a single to bring in the lone Pioneer score.

October 20: Bad Day for Pioneers In Soccer, Calvin College broke out on top near the end of the first half, and went on to beat WPC 3-0. The Pioneers had chances to tally but never cashed in. Late in the game. Art Stone, apparently scored a goal but was called back on his own hand- ball. The afternoon football match looked like a repeat of the game against Delaware. Midway in the first quarter WPC made a brilliant goal line stand, but Pioneer, Joe Corria fumbled, leading to a Lions ' TD and an extra point for a 7-0 lead. In the second quarter the Pioneer defense stopped the Cats at the twenty-three but Jack Moretti booted a field goal to make it 10-0. WPC fired up and reached midfleld in the third quarter, but Corria fumbled again giving the ball back to Trenton. The Lions capi- talized on Nate Woodward ' s run- ning, Morrettl ' s shoe, and two WPC penalties to bring the score to 33-0. After the last Lions ' score, Tom Athill returned the klckoff from the sixteen to the WPC twenty-seven. Next, quarterback Bob Pellichia found Athill for forty-eight yards which led two plays later to Pellichia hitting Al Zanka at the one. Four plays later James Rlzlo ran over the line for the Pioneers ' first score of the season. This light at the end of the tunnel didn ' t lighten the 33-6 defeat, or brighten the other two defeats of the day.
