Page Eight - The SKYSCRAPER - November 1, 1968 comments on sports Marauders mangle Mudcats; win first game of new season by Theresa Ebenhoe Chicago, ni., Oct. 26 Mun delein's Marauders opened their 1968 football season to day with a hard fought victo ry over Marygrove's Mud- cats. The Marauders' amaz ing defense held the Mudcats scoreless through four quar ters of dazzling play. Quick Score Barbara Ochs' spectacular kick-off drove Marygrove back almost to their own,goal line. The Marauders' defense held the Mudcats to a minimal gain in yardage thus giving the Mundelein offense excel lent field position for their first drive. A run by flanker Margaret Desmond set up the offense for the only score of the game. The touchdown came when fullback Mary Montovon drove around the right end and into the end zone. The Marauders' failed in their attempt for the extra point. Key Interceptions The Marauders' defense then took over and prevented any scoring by the Mudcats. Two key interceptions thwarted any thoughts the Mudcats had of scoring. One interception, by Linda Mixan, was almost turned into another touchdown for Mundelein but Linda was halted on about the one yard line. The first half ended be fore another play could be started. Surprised Crowd The second half was one of halted drives, misdirected runs and close calls. A triple reverse pass and they blew it, gasped a startled specta tor at one point. Under the superb quarterbacking of Sue Conser, the Marauders drove near the Mudcats goal line only to be deprived of further yardage by the tough Mary- grove defense. At one point during the third quarter a Mundelein coach was heard to exclaim, We're actually win ning The game ended with the Marauders winning 6-0. The Marauders' next game will be played at Loyola field tomorrow, Nov. 2, against the Bombers of Barat College, Lake Forest, III.

We want pants, some IN boys from Loyola's Campion Hall surrounded Cof fey Hall, then laid siege to the Northland, Thursday night, Oct. 17. Inside informa tion had it that the raiders called two girls on third floor Coffey to give advanced warn ing of the impending invasion. The expedition was not a total success, however. The invad ers captured some from Cof fey, but the Northland surren dered only a few pair of pant ies, a bucket of water, and a towel. The natives of the violated territory responded with an almost universal reaction of shock, not that there was a pantie raid, but rather that it was so ineffective. Com mented one girl, It was the poorest excuse for a pantie raid I ever saw. If that's all the Loyola guys can do, I feel sorry for them. Generally, the attitude was that the rampaging hordes didn't stay long enough to make the brief battle worth while. They were only outside the Northland for about five minutes, although one boy with initiative did try to climb a tree to the second floor win dows. He got a wet reception, a bucket of water thrown by Barb Langer, 219 Northland. (Some kind heart took pity and threw out a towel.)

(A message to the thanking student) This time there's an alternative. Perhaps you were committed to the compassionate, sometimes wistful intensity of Robert Kennedy before an assassin's bullet dashed your hopes. Or perhaps you believe in the understated eloquence of Eugene McCarthy, the quiet man who has shaken up and inspired a nation- This time your hopes were snuffed out with ruthless efficiency by a cold, impersonal, largely discredited political machine. The people voted for Gene McCarthy in the primaries. But the people couldn't get through the barbed wire barricades outside the International Amphitheatre. The people voted for Richard Nixon, too, in primaries stretch ing across the continent from New Hampshire to Oregon. His party listened, and now Dick Nixon is on his way to the White House. Hopefully, with your help. Dick Nixon offers an alternative to what happened behind the barricades in Chicago. He's no glamour boy you've been told that often enough. He's no specialist with the fast quip or the extravagant promise. Dick Nixon, simply, is the new leader, the man of experience, brains and tested ability who will restore stability and harmony to our torn and troubled land, the one who will lead the way to peace and progress at home and abroad.
