SlMPSON l'llGl-l MAN

 

After a twelve day rest between
games Coach W C. Krafi't’s Black and
Gold team won from Wheaton College
by a 21— 15 score last Wednesday at
the Armory. The Armour rooting sec-
tion numbered about ten men, while
Wheaten had twelve loyal supporte1s.

Wheaton presented a formidable
team of six footers, or better. How-
eve1, a good back— board play executed
by Rutkowski, kept the invaders from
more than a lone follow-up basket.
The game was largely defensive, for
Wheaten scored only three field goals
while the Tech team collected six.

Wheaten drew flist blood on a foul
toss, but Simpson‘s basket and free
throw soon gave Armour the lead.
Then the visitois pulled slowly ahead,
until Ott‘s pretty under-the-basket
shot tied the score at 9—9 at the half.

The second half was another story.
Armour took the play light away
from Wheaton, scoring 8 points be-
foie a hostile point was made, to lead
by 17—9. Simpson’s thi1d and fourth
baskets and Miran’ s first made up this
lead. Tech then began to play a de-
fensive game, waiting fol breaks
Wheaten sco1ed its third field goal
and four free throws. After this
Simpson, Robin and Rowley added
four free throws to Armour’s total.

Simpson was high scorer with four
baskets and three free throws; Till~
man led Wheaten with five points.

N. U. Makes Third

Victory for Team

 

Northwestern of McKinlock lost a
close game to Tech Saturday after-
noon at the formers home floor The
score was 24-22 and marks the thiid
straight win for the black and yellow.
As usual there were very few Tech
routers, but the ten who did appear
deserve credit.

The game nearly became a calamity
when Armour let an eleven point lead
dwindle to one solitary point late in
the second half.

The first 17 minutes of the first
half were hard fought and close. The
last three minutes were different, fol
three quick baskets by Rossing and
Robin gave Tech 11 16— 9 lead at the
half

The second half started the same
way the first ended. Armour worked
the score to 22-11 with ten minutes to
go. Then with both Miran and Rule
kowski removed on four fouls Ar—
mour’s defense weakened and seven
minutes later the count stood 22-21.
With about 21/2 minutes left Rowley’s
follow shot gave Tech 21 three point
lead, which they held until a North—
western free throw went thru just
before the final gun.

Tech Swimmers Defeat

Rifle Team Postpones
N. Y. Exchange Meet

The Rifle Team’s scheduled match
with the'New York Stock Exchange
for this week has been indefinitely
postponed because the Armory range
is closed.

A meet with the University of Mis-
souri is to be held the first of March.

George Heller, manager of the
squad is trying to promote a match
with Culver Military Academy.

 

At Salem they’ve gotten interested
in finding an “Ideal Man" (we hope
they find him!), and have interviewed
four girls and published their ideas
of what he should be.

One says that ,inlooks he must be
somewhere between John Gilbert and
on Chaney, and must not wear
spotted neckties. Another says he
must be a. college graduate (Carolina
preferred), and must be an athlete
and an insurance agent. The third
girl has already picked hers, so she’s
prejudiced. He’s
blonde, and the young lady merely
says he “has everything every other

 

and is applied to practical problems
in various fields of engineering.
Analysis will be made of the relation
of first costs, depreciation, interest,
taxes, maintenance and other factors
in the study of an engineering pro}-
ect. The class work will be supple—
mented by lectures on actual problems
given by practicing engineers.

The last girls seems to be desperately
in love. She’s even moved to compose

Single Nines Plans
for Trash Season

 

Coach A. A. Stagg, Jr., coach of
Armour Track Team, urges all indoor
track men to start practicing this
week if possible. Uniforms will be
issued by Coach Stagg at Bartlett
Gym.

The first meet on the schedule will
be the Armour Interciass Meet which
will be held the latter part of Febru—
ary. This will be. followed by dual
meets with Loyola and Chicago Nor—
mal, dates to be set later.

It is planned to send two relay
teams to the Illinois relays at Urbana
on Saturday, March 11. The relays to
be entered, probably will be the two
mile relay consisting of four men run—
ning one half mile each and the med-
ley distance relay. A. triangular meet
with Sears Roebuck Y. M. C. A. and
Chicago Normal will be held on March
22 at Bartlett Gym.

The Second Annual Armour Indoor
invitation Track Meet will be held
Saturday, March 29. Twenty~five col—
leges will be invited to compete. These
will include Beloit, Crane, Armour,
Lake Forest, Y. M. C. A. College,
Wheaton, Chicago Normal, Loyola,
De Pauw, Morton College and North
Central College.

It is also planned to have a team
entered in the Drake relays at Des
Moines in April and The National
Collegiate Championships in June.

This year’s team is very promising
as practically all of last year’s regu—
lars are back.

Chicago to See
Past in Future

 

Through the cfibrts of Ernest A.
Grimes field, Jr” and the money of
Max Adler the city of Chicago may
very soon be given a rare treat.
Large audiences will be able to see
a 24 hour astronomical day run
ofi in four minutes.

The movements of the solar "and
stellar bodies will be completely
visualized by means of a powerful
projector to be erected in the new
planetarium. Mr. Adler has pro-
vided $560, 000 to build and equip
a large ‘domed building for this
purpose and Grunsfield was select—
ed to design the structure.’ ‘

A complicated system of lenses
and reflectors is employed, giving
a perfect image of the heavens on
the mammoth white dome. The
result is the observation of stars,
planets, sun and moon and even
the milky way in a clear sky. Gare-
ful calculations have prevented the
overlapping or blurring of images.
The possibilities of the projector
are endless, but the most spectac—
ular is that of changing time so
that the heavens may be viewed as
they were thousands of years ago
or as they will be thousands of
years in the future.

A little motor, with a gyroscopic
motion, brings about a procession
of the equinoxes, so that when it
is speeded up we may pass over
a day in about four minutes. Eter—
nal day may be demonstrated by
slowing down the earth’s revolu-
tions to one a year, thus dispens~
ing with sunrise and sunset.

 

Five fraternity houses have been
burned down at the University of
Southern California in one month.

SECOND VICTORY

Tech swimmers chalked up an-
other victory last Thursday when
they defeated Hyde Park Y. M. C. A.
by the score 34-32.

Stranch, captain of the team, did
not perform because of injuries
which he sustained in an automobile
accident during the Christmas vaca-
tion.

Perhaps the most spectacular race
of the night came when Knox beat
Lyons of “Y.” in the 100 yard free
style event. For a time the spectators
were uncertain as to who had won the
race, however the judges unanimous-
ly voted Knox the victory. This de—
cision determined the victor of the
meet.

Fraternity Cage

Eight of Armour’s ten fraternity
basketball teams will compete for the
iiiteixfraternity championship this
week. The first two games are sched—
uled for Thursday, January 16..;~The
Rho Delta Rho s and Phi Pi Phi’ s will
uncap the proceedings by starting the
first game The Sigma Kappa Delta
and Triangles will take the floor after
the first half and then will again re-
sume play after the first game is
completed.

On Monday, January 20, Phi
Kappa Sigma meets Theta Xi in the
starter while the Delta Tau Delta

mix in the aftermath.

All games will commence at 5 P. M.
and will beheld in the school gym—
nasium. The championship contest
is scheduled for January 24.

From the Auburn Plainsman we
plucked this peculiar bit of neWS:

the University of Boston last year

The Future?

Another year has passed! We now
enter 1930 wondering whe‘ her we
shall enjoy the athletic accesses
which Tech experienced in 1923.
Everything seems to point to a ban—
ner year. Basketball, baseball, track,
swimming, boxing, etc, all seem to in-
dicate a best year in 1930.

 

 

 

A Great Year
Some of the notable events in the
Sport calendar of last year were: the
wonderful record of Tech? Baseball
team with 13 victories and a single
defeat; the unprecedented success of
the First Armour Tech Invitational
Track Meet; the Junior Class’ on-
usual string of interclass champion
ships 1:1 indoor track, baseball and re-
ay; the unexpected victory of the
Fresh in the interclass basketball
tournament; Phi Pi Phi’s repeating
their 1928 victory in the great track
meet of Circus Day; Sigma Alpha
Mo’s winning the interfratemity in-
door baseball trophy; so we mig it
continue ad infinitum.

Just Because

An article written by John J.
Schommer which appeared in the last
issue of this paper seems to have
raised the ire of some of our Chicago
newspaper columnists.

John W. Keys in his “Right in the
Mitt” column in the Chicago Daily
News said: “But if we remember cor—
rectly it was Mr. Schonuner and not
the newspapers that called it a tout-J:—
back." We imagine that Mr. Keys is
refering to the famous f‘control and
possession" decision in the Notice
Dame—Southern California genie gt
severaLyears ago. . .
