Twenty five points in arrears at the start of the quarter, Kappa Deuteron fell twenty more points behind. The gist of this forty five points deficit is that the Fiji's must finish ahead of AEPi in every Spring Quarter sport. The Spring Quarter sports are Softball, golf, track, cross country, and horseshoes. We are the defending cham pions in golf and Softball and should do quite well again. The major sport of Winter Quarter, basketball, saw the Gams finish in a tie for second. After an opening game loss to the eventual champions. Kappa Alpha Psi, Kappa Deuteron finished strong without another loss. Particularly grati fying was an 8 point victory over AEPi. In bowling the Gams paced by Cap tain Neil Seiter, raced to a Fourth place finish behind pacesetter Tau Epsilon Phi. This Fourth place finish repre sented the pinnacle of bowling success in Kappa Deuteron's short intramural history. A close race in weightlifting resulted in a third place effort. Captained by Ray Paris, the weightlifters were barely nosed out by AEPi and Theta Chi. Out standing efforts were made by Ray Paris, Pledge Mike Turbyfill, and Jeff Smith. Defending champions in badminton, the Gams were not able to duplicate last year's victory and were defeated in a nip-and-tuck battle with Theta Chi. Brothers Rogers, Lawrence, Reddick, and Parker comprised the team which came within a few points of another championship. Winter Quarter was a great deal more productive than last year's Winter Quar ter but still saw the Gams falling behind. Crowd enthusiasm and team effort were both at a very high level and if con tinued should produce Kappa Deuteron's third consecutive intramural champion ship.
