Page Four ARMOUR TECH NEWS Tuesday, january 20, mm hail/iota caesium WSE ”lid “r" AND Alldlld'lhda rites Free Throws—'chli Tech Defeat in Close fiance RALLY FAELS Armour‘s basketball team was administered its third straight de— feat when Y. M. C. A. College out—v scored the locals 38—24 in the game played last Monday at the “Y” gym. Wilson and Meyer, Y. M. C. A. forwards, lead the attack for Y. M. C. A. College by scoring 27 points. Their contribution of field goals and free throws was enough to give “Y” its victory. Armour’s quintet fought con- sistently throughout the entire game. They executed their plays in good fashion, only to lose the ball, four out of every five times that an attempt was made to ring a field goal. First Half 'll‘cnsc The game in the first half was closely contested. Shortly before the first period ended Armour came within one point of “Y” col— logo to enjoy holding 15 points against “Y” College’s 16. The final period, enlivened by the brilliant shooting of Wilson and Meyer, gave Armour but little opportunity to make any serious threats towards attaining a score that would throw any fright into the victorious team.

The score at the end oi? the first half stood 26-16 in favor of Augus- tana. Armour made a compara~ tively poor showing in this period and showed no promise of provid— ing any greater amount of compe- tition. Tech Outplays Augustana When action was resumed in the second half, Coach Krafit’s staff showed a complete reversal of Armour, Wheaten To Mix Thursday The Armour Tech basketball season continues with a game against Wheaton on the Wheaton College floor, Thursday evening, January 22. In thinking of this game, we re- call the 36—33 victory ,which Ar- mour attained over the Wheaton five on December 16, at the Ar— mory. It must be remembered that the game was not “in the bag" until the final gun went off, and also, the encounter took place on the Tech floor. Although, in the last few games, Armour has been unsuccessful in attaining a victory, all the games have been very closely contested. A lack of spirit has been shown in the games with Chicago Normal and “Y” College, Armour’s early lead being wiped out in each case. If the boys come out of their slump and play with their snappy attacks and accurate shots, which typified the early season games, our chances of victory will be greatly magnified. fl form. They executed brilliant passing plays, located the hoop from all angles of the floor and kept Augustana well guarded. Ar— mour reigned as the superiors in the final period and displayed real basketball art in the closing min~ utes. The 10 point lead, however, was too great for our men to overcome. Their offensive power although greatly intensified was not forceful enough to bring them the victory to which they were entitled. The four point margin which decided the winner of the contest was an— nexed on free throws. Both teams scored 13 field goals, but Augus— tana succeeded in sinking 8 free throws as compared with Armour’s four. BOX SCORE Armour—30 FT. 1?

Wheaten on Thursday Winter athletic teams are in the midst of their schedules at this writing. Basketball has plenty to look forward to, with Wheaten to be played on Thursday. Since this game is to played away from the home floor, the outcome is much in doubt. In their last encounter with the Wheaten outfit, Tech came through in fine style with a 36~33 victory. Two Plus Two Equals Loss In the game played with Angus. tana, last Thursday, several inter- testlng facts were revealed. Ar- mour, although outscored in the first half by 10 points, outplayed the Rock Island team and very nearly won the game. In other words, Tech won the second half 14-8, while Augustana won the first 26-16. Adding these together we have for a final score: Augus- tana 34, Armour 30. Coach Kral’ft was forced to start a substitute in the guard position usually ocupied by Miran. Miran is again troubled with weak kid- neys. It was this condition which forced him to abandon all athletics several years ago. Boxing Tournament Soon Captain Ustryski of the varsity boxers tells us that an all—institute boxing tournament is contem- plated. Tournaments oi’ this type are annual occasions in a large number of the Conference schools. 11’ this idea should materialize, all of the bouts will be fought in the school ring in the gymnasium. Indoor track has attracted a large number of new men, espe- cially members of the freshman and sophomore classes. Coach ' Stagg has hopes for these men if they will continue to practice. Hockey Team to Use Rink in Jackson Park The A. I. '1‘. hockey team is get— ting oil? to a good start this year although their first, scheduled game has been postponed indeflu nitely. The first meet of the sea- son will probably be with “Y” Col- lege The new hockey rink that has just been built on the baseball dia- mond in Jackson Park at 63rd St. and Stony Island Ave., will be the practice grounds of the Tech squad on Monday evenings from 8 to 10 and Saturday afternoons from 12 to 2. The South Park Board cooper- ated to their full extent with the Armour manager in arranging a schedule for them on the rink. The puck pushers had their first game scheduled: with the Midway Rangers but were unable to play it because their rink permit was can— celed in favor of league games of the Central A. A. U. hockey league. There have been about five prac‘ tice sessions so far and there is still plenty of time to grab a berth on the squad. Anyone wishing to try out for the team see Manager 0. T. Barn— ett. fihemiciuis Nose Gut Electrical Cougars The Junior Chemicals are on a rampage. They have taken on both the Electricals and Mechani- cals oi the Junior Class in basket— ball and have emerged victorious each time. Last Wednesday the Chemicals played the Electricals and defeated them by a score of 20 to 18. Led by Goldman, who caged 4. baskets and 2 free throws, the at— tack of the Chemikers proved too much for the doughty .l'uiccrs. The game was hip and tuck through“ out, however, and the result was always in doubt until the final whistle blew. As can be imagined, the defeat did not rest easily upon the Elec- Tecii Page Meet Tough @pposirion Armour students will have the opportunity to view our ias. step— ping, scrappy, boxing squad in ac~ tion when they tangle with the Headquarters Regiment lighters sometime during the week of Jan. 26 to 30. The definite date will be announced as soon as Colonel Reilly of the Regiment verifies the date. This encounter will represent the squad’s third meet, with each in~ dlvldual exerting himself to the utmost to register a victory. The Headquarters Regiment boasts a group of picked fighters, selected from 52 possibilities. As a result a hard fought and heated argument will take place in every weight. Although these pugs rate higher than ours, their challenge was accepted so that the student body might view the Tech squad laboring under adverse conditions. Since its inception as an accepted school sport there has been only one similar previous opportunity. The team is accustomed to per— forming before hostile crowds and will appreciate a large turnout of the student body. The remaining meets will all be outside of Chicago, namely, Springw field, 111., February 14; Blooming— ton, Ill., February 28 and Culver, Ind, on March 14. tricals and they have challenged the Chemicals to a second game which will be held in tho near'fu— tore. This being the first time the Electricals have played together, they feel that the next game will tell a diilerent story. If the Chemicals are again able to bring home the bacon it will be up to the FirenProtecta or the Civlls or MWCVEE} "Milli SQWAD ”iii? With thdltfi QCEEEQE Seek to Average Defeat in Meet With Culver OTHERS ON SCHEDULE The swimming meet scheduled for last Tuesday with Crane Junior College had to be postponed due to the illness of two of Armour’s mainstays, Carlstrom and Davisson, and also because of program inter» ference. The meet probably will be held next Thursday, January 22nd. The Culver Military Academy meet, slated for Saturday, January alst, will be an outstanding one for this season. Culver’s teams are usually successful and were so last year when the Armour tankers met them. This year the worm may turn. Armour’s team is practically the same as last year with a few additions in the breast-stroke. As will be recalled from last year the Armour team won most or the meets. One of those lost went to Culver. The count 33-25 was not overwhelming and with a bit of luck Armour may emerge success- ful. other meets for this season will include schools like Normal College, American College of Physical Edu— cation, several oi? the Y. M. C. As and perhaps Wheaton College. No definite dates have yet been set but Manager Davisson is doing all to arrange these meets for the near future. someone to take the cocky Schmler Chemikers down a peg or two. “ Whldilmt THE Eliot Street and Mich.
