Title races take shape in IM Softball j IM Scoreboa/d
The men's IM basketball season ended with not one champion, but two —Peon U and PAU.
The two Power League rivals
were unable to meet for _ final
and as a result co-'champloris
were named.
Peon U earned tbelr way
Into tbe title clash by virtue
of a 102-86 triumph over Temperature Easy t the AU-Stars.

got within five points late to
tbe game, but a last- minute sur-
ger by' Peon U put It out of
reach.    Rocky Perry tad tbe
All-Stars with 25 points.
Meanwhile, to the other selm-

tM Notebook:
Tbe EM Dept tips Its bat to
the "Collegian," who in tbelr
ceaseless battle against the forces of accuracy and objectivity,
grossly misstated the EM budget
Instead of using <-*
1977-78 -adgetflfur-of$-2,000
($9,000 Initially from tte AA
plus an augmentation of $3,000),
the "Collegian" went back another year to 1976-77 and
$6,000, and erroneously cited
the 1978-79 approved budget
of $20,000 as a three-fold Increase, to reality, the Increase
amounts to $8,000, still a hefty
increased IM partlciparia-. Tte
EM Dept, had asked for $23,585
■ -*•«) tin lin **—<—¥»*,

squeeze translates Into a continuation of tte $10 charge.
Again the "Coilegt-tf'" is deserving of kudos, neglecting
to print the results of the Women's basketball playoffs. For
those unable toattend, the Jock- '
ettes added another top price
to tbelr trophy case, overcoming Val's Gals 29-23. Tte
Jockettes took dead aim at tte'
women's title from first to fnal
teaser, as ttey scored 10 unanswered points after tte opening Jump. Val's Gals narrowed
the margin to 16-11 at tte half
tat were unable to close tte
