This victory keeps the Freshmen in the race for the class championship honors which will be staked when they meet the Juniors. The defeat handed the Sopho~ mores was an upset to the partici- pants in this year’s contest inas— much as the class of ’32 was conceded a favorable chance of winning the inter—class title. The forthcoming tilt with the Juniors will bring more light on the sub- ject. If the Freshmen can repeat against the Juniors, Armour can rest assured that it has a promis— ing Varsity aggregation in store. The work of Gustafson, Stabovitz, and Escarraz was especially out— standing. Game Moves Slowly The Freshmen-Sophomore game, however, was a slow progressing contest. Each team played cau- tious basketball, stressing the de— fensive phase above everything else. The score 8—6 evidences that neither team lost patience with its defensive tactics. Comparatively few long shots were attempted while none of the short toss—ups were made at any great risk. It was not until the final two-minutes of play that the Sophomores be— came rampant in their attempts to cage any points, but their efforts were of no avail. At the end of the first half the score stood 4-0 in favor of the Sophomores. Carlson and Real placed the two baskets for the leading team. The Sophomores were forced to relinquish this lead in the third quarter, but again as— " sumed the lead only to be nosed out in the final minutes of play. Ellis' basket followed by Gustaf- son’s free throw brought the count to 4-3. Stabovitz’s foul shot then deadlocked the score at 4. Stalzer broke the knot and placed the Sophomores in a 6-4 lead with a basket in the closing seconds of the third quarter. This incident- ally was the last time that the Sophomores enjoyed the lead. The Freshmen retaliated with a marker that brought the score to another tie which was broken when Stabovitz sunk the winning basket. Carlson, Leichtenberg, MacLen— nan and Stalzer performed ably for their team but lacked the scoring punch that was needed to reverse the outcome of the game. Following is the box-score: Armour Swimmers to Meet Y. M $43. The Armour swimming team is to engage in its first meet tonight when it opposes one of the strong— est teams in the Middle West, the South Chicago Y. M. C. A. That this “Y” is so well known in swim~ ming circles is easily accounted for when we make a casual investiga— tion of its swimmers. There is Captain Dean Garrison, former Hyde Park High School star in the free-style event and recently a Chicago Athletic Association swim— ming team member. Then there is “Dutch" Van Twin, for two years National Athletic Federation cham- pion in the 100 yard breast stroke splash. “Dutch” in addition to holding the national record in this event also has a flock of other rec— ords, some being in the free style events. Their team also claims “Swede" Erickson who, during his career at Tilden Tech High was the National Interscholastic champion in the 220 yard free style. These three champs form the nucleus of the team which Armour will try to defeat. Captain Fred Strauch, ’30, and Manager Vander Velde, ’30, think their team is in good shape to meet some other waterudogs. Edwin Knox, ’31, among others, is stepping along nicely in the short sprints and Jack Cavanagh shoots along at a fair clip in the 220 yard breast stroke. Also hitting it up in this event is err—captain Walter Tro— gnitz, ’30. The South Chicago Y. M. C. A. is located at 3039 East 91st street. The swimmers are asked to be there at about 8 p. m. and should bring suits in case they will‘be needed. Admission for spectators will be free. John Schommer in Great Demand Prof. Schommer has been kept on the jump all week end and sees no sign of break in sight. Last Thursday evening he spoke at the banquet held preliminary to the Big Ten Meeting. Friday he ad- dressed the Conference with a thorough discussion on the inter- pretation of rules. About 150 coach— es and faculty members of the Big Ten were present at the meeting. The University Club at Chicago was the next place to hear Prof. Schommer speak. This was on Saturday. Yesterday he refereed the North- western game at Evanston. Due to the fact that the University of Iowa was banned at the confer- ence held last week, the basket» ball schedule which is usually made out in the spring for the following season has not as yet been formu- lated. This leaves Armour’s capable “whistle~tooter" in the dark as to what games he will referee this season. Gristle Grows to Bone in Research Test Tubes Cambridge, Eng—A most amaz— ing case of living tissue being grown outside the animal body is the growth of the embryo gristle or cartilage into bone.

An Oregon man has not shaved for 78 years. What a bum team he must have bet on. “There’s bars in them hills," sea the old farmer. “But our little Nell isn’t afieered of: bars, she's got a bicycle and she can handle bars.” The average motorist in the United States spent 298 dollars last year in the operating and rip-keep of his car. When the proper conditions of nourishment and temperature are maintained, isolated cells from an- imal embryos have been seen to grow and develop in the test tube just as if they were still in the an- imal body. Miss Fell, using a tech- nique similar to one devised by the late Mr. Strangeway, has thus cul— tivated tiny pieces of gristle from chi-day old embryos of fowl. Dur— ing cultivation, they increased more than three times their origi- nal length and developed along practically normal lines. Besides growing, these test tube cultivations have actually manu- factured a substance called phos— phatase, an enzyme, which is of immense interest to biochemists.

Both squads were so evenly matched, the wits of the Seniors against the skill and speed of the Juniors that not once dur— ing the game was there more than a three point lead. There were no outstanding play- ers, but each player gave all he had in the perfection of a [fast passing game. Setterburg of the Junior squad led the scoring list with seven points to his credit. Serson, a Senior, was next with six points. rias'r gunman After the tip oflf both teams took it slow for a few minutes, each feeling out the other’s weaknesses. The Seniors then opened up with Serson sinking a long shot from the center of the floor. Setterburg quickly retaliated with a basket for the Juniors. Again each of these men sank a basket and Stehno sank a free throw. Hurley quickly evened the score by sinking one from the free throw line. Another free toss by Rowley gave the Sen— iors a one point lead as the quar- ter closed. Score: Seniors 6; Jun- iors 5. SECOND QUARTER The scoring was cut down cone siderably in the second quarter, Rowley sinking only one free throw to another basket by Setterburg and two generosity shots by Rod;- owski and Pepe. This made the Senior rooting section very mild and meek during the halves. Score: Juniors 9; Seniors 7. WEED QMARTER The Seniors were held to a sin— gle basket by Hurley while the Juniors added a basket by Kutteruf and a free toss by Pepe to their score. This silenced the Seniors entirely while the Juniors gave vent to their feelings. Score: Jinn- iors l2; Seniors 9. FOURTH QEUARTER The fourth year squad again went on a scoring spree, Rowley, Hurley and Olson each scoring a basket. The Juniors managed to tie the score when Johnson sank one and Settcrburg made a free throw. Score: Seniors 15; Juniors 15. OVEIRTIIME In the first minute of this period Serson sank one from close in un— der the cage. This made the Jun— iors snap into it and Stehno sank a long shot. A personal on Rutkowski by Serson put the Jun— iors ahead by an 13 to 17 score. The final whistle blew without any further scoring by either team.

"WNW—“mg. E El raga arrears WWW—T“ 3 Tech Varsity The other evening we watched the Varsity practice at the Armory. Except for several minor casualties the Varsity is about ready to open their schedule. Kraut has a game scheduled with the University of Chicago for Thursday at the Bartlett gym. This will be a practice game and prom— ises to be a good one. Too Bad, Don’t Walk Captain Simpson has a rather bad foot. His right foot has a slight infection at the bottom which makes it painful for him. to walk. In the evening scrimmage Tell played center with Rossing and Robin in the forward positions while Rutkowski and Miran played the guard positions. A “Ncscy” Guard When Miran appeared on the floor with his football nose guard he looked like he had a very large nose. After several minutes play “Von” discarded the offensive pro- tector because it impaired his breathing. Interclass Basketball started with a bang around Tech last week. rI'wo of the interclass games were played to officially open the season. Thrills seems to be the keynote of most games played in Armour‘s 45x45 gym. On Wednesday the Frosh trounced the “cocky" Sophs. Thursday saw the Juniors take the bacon from the fourth—year men. Freshmen 8—Sophomores 6 The Freshman—Sophomore con- test ended with the score, Fresh 8; Sophs, 6. The Sophs gathered most of their points in the early part of the game and then pro— ceeded to illustrate the famous “lay down”. While the red shirts were resting, Gustavson rallied his green team to the extent of 8 points, enough to cop the contest. Stabovitz, with his captain, car— ried the brunt of the Freshman at— tack. No Frosting Left Many games have been played in Tech gym, but it remained for the Junior—Senior clash to present the climax for genuine thrillers. In their annual basketball game last Thursday the Juniors “took all the frosting off the Senior cake.” till, What a Game After 40 minutes of hectic bat~ tling the score stood at 15 all. A five minute overtime period was played and five points resulted. The Juniors got three while the Sen—- iors got only two of these. Final score was 18 to 1’7 in favor of the class of ’31. The Juniors missed 16 free throws, certainly enough to win any game. The Ref and llllis Cigars When the game was called it was noticed that one, Otto Kuhn was in the referee’s position. Otto did a very creditable job in con- ducting the game for very few kicks were noticed in the audience of some 5i) loyal rooters. Maybe, the cigars which the class of ’29 promised him last year. What the Seniors Had President Serson of the Seniors was in the centw position with Fee and Hurley as forwards in the ’80 team. Quinby, Rowley, Ross and Olson acted in the guard posi- tions. This combination was not strong enough to overcome the long range shooting of Setterburg and the Junior forwards, however. Bowie}; threatened to end the contest several times in the final minutes but his shooting was er— ratic. He had a chance for two Sittihli Slight? noon seamen 3:092» Reduction area 50.

A Good Man Rutkowski, who is slated for a guard position on the Varsity, played his usual brilliant game. But for his free throw at the last moment of the game another over— time period would have had to be called. “Rut” literally won the game in that one single shot. What the Juniors Had The supporting cast in the (fun- ior victory was Johnson, Erland, Stehno, Pepe, Kutteruf and Schir- mer. Draus, Miccucio and Holt were at hand but their services were not required. A Slim Margin At no time during the game did more than three points populate the two teams. Oh, what a game that was. With his Armour tie, black and yellow, “Vern” Storm assisted in the operations on Thursday. He did some fine work in refereeing the Frosh—Sopb game on Wednes- clay. The “Dope” Later As we go to press the champion- ship game between the Juniors and for his good work he will receive ' the Freshmen is being played. We shall have the “dope” for this col- umn next week. Possibly Schommer will come through with that article he prom— ised us several weeks ago. He might give us the inside on this Iowa reinstatement case.

Four other teams will take the floor be— fore the Christmas Holidays, while the remaining five will take their turns after the vacation period. The Phi Pi Phi fraternity again looms up as the favorite this year, although their prospects are some- what less promising. They have held the school championship ior eleven consecutive years, winning thereby three trophies which are offered for permanent possesm'on to the fraternity that wins the con- test for three consecutive years. The Phi Pi Phi’s have two legs in the fourth trophy that is up for this year’s cempetition. All games will be played in the school gymnasium.
