Winners Trail Until @pening of Last Quarter GAME HARD FOUGHT The juniors defeated the seniors 14—11 in the first inter—class bas~ ketball contest for the season last Thursday evening. The class of ’31 seems to follow in the footsteps of its proceeding senior classes. They made a great attempt to un— ravel the bonds that seem to keep them from annexing inter—class championships, but failed as usual. The seniors displayed a good brand of basketball in the first half to enjoy a '7-4 lead. The second halt found them even more able, but their ability bore no fruit. Their shots at the hoop, although close on a number of occasions were in- accurate. The juniors on the other hand were more exact and suc- ceeded in overcoming the 'I~4 lead, and reversed the outcome by plac~ ing three points ahead when the final whistle blew. It was a great game, fast and hard fought. Seniors Lead in First Quarter Pepe’s basket in the first minute of play gave the seniors a 2~0 lead. A personal foul committeecl by Carlson gave the seniors a free throw that brought them the third point. During the remainder of the first quarter both teams played cautious basketball, stressing the defensive phase above everything else. The only scoring was done by the juniors who sank two free throws. The juniors entered the game in the second quarter trailing 3-2. Carlson was given a free throw shortly after the game got under way. The ball hit its mark for the tieing point. Setterberg placed a good shot to break the tie. Carlson retaliated with another free throw that elevated the junior score to four points. Most of the attempts at the bas— ket up until this period of the game were short shots. Stehno was the only senior who became some- what frantic with his endeavors to place the sphere from the middle of the floor, but his skill was not exacting. Before the first hair ended Pepe and Kutteruf sank free throws that boosted. the senior i1 Gridiron Queries-”lg By Professor John J. Schommcr Editor's Note: Professor John I. Schommcr, star player, conference umpire, and leading football au» thority, will answer through this column, any questions on football which are puzzling our readers. Questions may be submitted to the Sports Editor, ll. 11". Richter, or they may be placed in the Amour Tech News box, which is located in the main building adjacent to the ele- vator on the first floor. Question (i. Player of offensive team substitutes another player on the field. As it is illegal for him to talk until the next play is executed will his team be penalized if he should by chance say something of apparent insignificant value such as “let’s go team?" Answer—The substitute is to keep his mouth shut until one play has elapsed because any ejacula— tion may mean a particular play or a series of plays. Question 7. As it is the duty of the quarterback to call signals will it be permissible for any other member of the team to call signals without first reporting to the ref— eree that he will conduct that phase of the quarterback’s work during the next play? Answer—Any of the eleven plays ers may call signals at any time. Question 8. When offensive team commits an offense that subjects them to a. penalty does the down remain the same on the next play or is the number of downs ad- vanced one? Answer—The down remains the same if the penalty does not place the ball in advance of the spot to be gained. There also fouls that demand let down no matter where the “Sticks" are. Qustion 9. Offensive team makes substitutions in their line~up. Does the timekeeper await a signal from the referee before he riegisters’timc in or does he wait until the ball is snapped. Answer—Timekeeper waits until the ball is snapped. Question Ill—What is the rule governing time-out on substitu— tions made in the last two minutes of each half? Answer—If the referee deems an unfair advantage is gained, he sig- nals to the timekeeper to keep the watch running. More Usher Pass—es For U. at C. Games score to 7. Juniors Grab Lead in 2nd Half Scoring in the second half com- menced when Stehno placed a free throw on a foul committeed by stalzer. Stalzer, however, re— deemed himself for this offense by placing a basket from the side lines. He added another point on a free throw shortly after, and brought the count to 8-7, senior’s favor. The score remained at this figure for several minutes until the third quarter ended The score was finally changed on the opening of the fourth quarter when Carlson scored two points with a basket from the middle of the floor, Stanley Ott, manager of the seniors then commenced shift- ing tn: men, placing Schohl, Mic— cucio and O‘Connor in the line-up. Manager Rossing of the juniors changed Schmidt and MacLennan. The senior strategy did not suffice for they could not overcome the lead. The juniors paced ahead un— til the finish. Last Minutes of (lame Tense Both teams became rampant in the last two minutes of play. The juniors were in the lead 10-9. Stehno failed to tie the score with a free throw. The handful of spec- tators became quite vehement as the game hung in balance. The margin, however, soon shifted. Lind placed a basket to put the juniors ahead 12-9, while Leichten- berg followed with another to bring the score to 14-9. Just before the final whistle blew, Schirmer shoved the ball over the hoop for two Prof. Schommer secured thirty— five usher passes for Armour stud— ents to the Mississippi—University of Chicago game last Saturday. C. Robin is in charge of the dis— tribution of these ushers passes to the men about school. Although the fellows have to report at the field by twelve—thirty, their duties thereafter are comparatively light. They consist mostly of seeing that the spectators are correctly seated. For several seasons, the Tech men have been performing this duty, and in return see a very in- teresting game free of charge. points that brought the final score to 1441.

Frank Yuknis succeeded in sink» ing the first one and his play was followed shortly afterward by a short shot by Beemsterboer, who tied the score, which remained tied until the next quarter started. A free throw which found its way into the basket was put in by Mos— cowitz, the Crane star, who was ac— corded a place on the all~clty heavies. Beemsterboer and Vic Gus- tafson were put in for Sansteadt and Pearson, and the game took a de- cided turn. Despite the efforts of. the sophomore star, however, the latter were destined to go down be— fore the aggressive attack of the newcomers. A basket by Gustafson tied the score just before the whis— tle blew, making the count 13 up. The overtime period began with a volley of basket shots by the soph— omores which somehow failed to hit the mark. A basket by Mosco- witz followed by a nice shot from the sideline by Christol put the freshmen four points in the lead, where it rested when the whistle blew. fit a a: Mfl ‘ FE), Hours a, Pi.H.J. l“ Sweaters and Letters Each year with the incoming freshman class it is necessary to offer suggestions as to the wearing of sweaters with monograms at- tached. Students who are so fortun tunate as to have won high school letters are asked not to wear them around the institute. The only oi~ ficial monogram recognized at Ar» moor is the letter “A” in either the plain or the block shape. This is worn attached to a sweater of either black or old gold and is awarded for earnest effort, exccl~ lency, ability and strict adherence to training rules of any of the list- ed sports. Major and Minor Major letters are awarded in three sports, baseball, track and basketball, while minor letters are awarded for tennis, golf, swimming and boxing. In exceptional cases major letters have been awarded to minor sport teams. The first major letter to be won is attached to a heavyweight black sweater with a eight-inch yellow “A.” Any major letter won thereafter may be worn on any style sweater that may be selected by the winner. Minor “A” sweaters are of light weight material with a plain style “A" attached. The letter “A" in any style, shape or form should not be worn unless awarded by the Ar- mour Tech Athletic Association. The letter society at Armour is the Honor “A” Society with Clarence Robin as president. hausch vs. Paul We noticed in the Chicago news- papers last week that Jim Bausch, star shot putter and football play— er for the University of Kansas is the center of proselyting and sub-- sidization charges. We might mention that. this same Mr. Bausch was the lad who defeated Captain Don Paul of our track team last year at the Illinois relays.

Tuesday, October 28, 1939 Tennis Players Urged to Follow Schedule Although it is getting rather late in the season, the tennis tour-nan ment schedule has been organized and posted on the bulletin board in the main lobby. It is hoped that. this schedule will be played through without the usual number of forfeits which seemed to be characteristic of our recent matches. The number of men has been cut down to eighteen, two of whom are already in the second round. It will require plenty of ac- tion to run off this tourney without delays, partly because of conflict— ing free periods, and also on ac— count of the‘ consolation players who are also on the courts at this time. The consolation players are strong in number, there being about fifty—two of them, all told. We are emphasizing the fact that all of the matches should be played for the reason that when the time for selecting varsity material comes around, the men who have some sort of record to show will get a «better chance than the ones who have signed up for matches and then forgotten all about it. There is only one way of putting together a tennis team and that is, select a group of players about whom we know something definite. The time which the schedule should cover has been tentatively set by Manager Krause. ,. Kai-HE 1favorite~whose flashing hoofs have brought hini in ahead so many times! Again he shows his mettle!
