VOLUME 47 SAN FRANCISCO, MAY 23, 1956 NO. 26 PR's Grab Bonus Mural Draft Success By DICK DURIS Intramural tackle football Frank Mulholland which will begin next fall on the Hilltop took its first big step last Friday afternoon when the annual draft choices were made by the participating teams of the league. • The three teams comprising the league are: the Pershing Rifles, the Block Society and the Delta Sigma Pi. Same As NFL The draft procedure was the same as employed by the NFL with each team drawing to determine the order of draft. Delta Sigma Pi drew the first choice pick; the Block Society won the right to draft second, and the 'Pershine Rifles drew third. It was decided before the draft that the team drawing third would be given the bonus choice. Therefore, the Pershing Rifles were able to get a jump on the other squads by their third place position in the drawing. For the bonus choice the Pershing Rifles chose former St. Ignatius High star Bill Koenig. Players picked in the draft will remain with the team that chooses them until they have terminated their college careers or are traded to one of the other clubs. In future years only one draft will be held, but next fall a supplementary draft will be helu for incoming freshmen and transferees. Big Surprise Biggest surprise of the draft was the Pershing Rifles choice of Bill Koenig as the bonus pick. There were many names considered as possible bonus choices, but Koenig was not one of them. Therefore, it was a mild surprise when the P.R.'s made their choice. Representing the three teams were: Jim Hermann, manager; Ed Griffin, captain, and Jack Doherty, (Pershing Rifles); Charlie Myers, manager; Mike Gregor, captain, and Tom Tom- masser, chief advisor, (Block Society), and Dave Cerini, manager and Frank Trumbower, captain (Delta Sigma Pi). Coach Sarge McKenzie and his assist- ane Vince Briare supervised the draft. Following is the list of the first twenty-three rounds of the draft: FIFTH ROUND Deltasigs, Jim McDonald; Block Club, John Vlahos; PR's, Bob Durkee SIXTH ROUND Deltasigs, Bob Forni; Block Senior Retreat Set For Scenic El Retiro This year's Senior Retreat will take place at the beautiful El Retiro in Los Gatos from Monday, June 11, to Thursday, June 14. , SodalityPrefect Frank Rinaldi, who is chairman of the affair, requested donations from those who plan to attend; no established rate is planned.

Just prior to joining the Mission Band, he trained in the Television Institute at Stanford University.
