The victors captured firsts in seven of the eleven events and also garnered a few points by seconds and thirds. The senior team, led by George Nelson, captured second place in the 50 yard (lush when Reed came in second, being: nosed out by Carroll, the high point man of the freshman tracksters. In the next event, the one mile run, Hanson stepped away from the field to add three points to the senior score. Neal Wins. the 440 The 440 yard run proved to be an exciting race, that was captured by Neal, and this was the only first place that the sophomores were able to win, although they gained enough seconds and thirds to run up a score of 11% points. The sophomore hopes were at a low ebb due to the fact that several of their mainstays did not put in an appear. ance. Johnny Roberts beat out a soph-_ omore and a freshman to capture the low hurdles. The three points gained here. along with the points picked up by Frieda, Jones, Bris— tol, Kulpak and O‘Connor account- ed for the bulk of the junior scor- ing. They claim that they ran their race the night before at the Shore- land. George Nelson captured the high hurdles in a rather easy fashion asi did Ray Flcissner in the 880 yard: run. The other seniors who made a good showing were George Reed, arx'y Frateschi, Jim Manly and George Mayer. Equipment to Be Issued The men who made a creditable showing are to be given an oppor- tunity to win a place on the team and will be awarded suits and lock- ers in the. near future. The track team will begin its practice imme- diately but a concentrated effort will not be made until the mental hazard of the semester exams has been vanquished. SUMMARIES 50 yd.

By Ray Fleissner Intorclass athletics got another boost last Saturday when the under- graduates battled for the track championship. A well balanced team of seniors scored nearly half the total points to win the meet easily, with the rest of the classes fairly even. Now the senior class will have to dig down into an already much- dcpleted treasury for about a dozen interclass athletic awards. Yea teaml Tech Cagers All Even Right now the Hawk basketball team is playing give and take._ Its performance looks something like that of Minnesota in the Big Ten race. Lose to the out—of‘the-running teams and then beat the potential champs. Well, almost! With the vic- tory over George Williams Saturday night, the mid-season percentage is .500, and as most of the remaining; crimes are at home, the final stand- ing shouldn’t be so bad. De Paul U. was noted several weeks ago as the only major uni— versity which was undefeated in football and basketball as yet. This still stands, but it sure would look sweet to see the following in the newspapers :— “ARMDUR TECH SNAPS DE PAUL VlCTORY STRING No one can say that the Tech men don‘t fight hard enough because they are the scrappiest bunch this side of the Atlantic and Pacific, to which De Paul can attest. Assistant Track Managers Wanted All interested should apply to Nick Kuehn, manager of the track team, in the near future. l LATE SPURTS TECH CAGERS DEFEAT GEORGE WKLMAMS A grimly determined Tet-hawk cage team becoming tired of being victims of lost minute rallies, pulled the lot out of the fire and thereby hangs a tale of o. hair~raising 39'34 victory over an aggressive George Williams live last Saturday night. After McBride started the scorv inc; for the home team with a short shot from the free. throw line, Armour completely dominated the play in the first half. Led by Al Lauchiskis and Gene Heike, who to« gether sank six buckets and five gratis tosses, Amour jumped to a commanding lead of 21-9 at half- time. Starting the last half, the Eng-in- ours defense, which is still not what it should be, loosened up to such an extent that with two minutes left to play the score stood 35~34, Armour. The Techawks at this point, decid- ing that thing's were going too far applied “the pressure" and garnered two field goals to sew up the game. BOX SCORE Armour (39) F.

Umpire—Osborne. Letterman Gino Victim on Awards and trio/lore In response to a questionaire in— volving the school colors and sports awards, forty-eight Tech lcttermen answered inquiries on several im- portant items. Opinions on the first question, “What is your reaction to— ward the present Armour colors?” were. well divided. Twenty men on- swered “good,” nineteen thought the colors in question were bad, and the remainder were indifferent. 0f the first twenty who thought the present colors were 0. K., fifteen prefer—red them to the old set of'col» 01's, notably black and old gold, and the other five liked the old better. On the other hand, all nineteen who dislike the present red, yellow and black, prefer the old hues. The in— (lilierents are split up on the old and new. State Opinions of Sweaters The present system of sweater colors is very simple, the first award being black in all cases, with a choice of any color thereafter. Twenty-two men thought that this system is all right, but the remain- der prefer two or three basic colors, either black and white, black and gold, or all three. Some of the men objected to the rod and yellow sweaters ol' the present system. Several suggested that the white sweaters be limited to captains. Agree on One Thingl Then suggestions were called for ‘ on the improvement of the athletic awardsystem. All who made offer— ings in this line stated definitely that the awards should be made immediately at the close of each sport’s season, some of the state- ments being quite vociferous. There were several good suggestions in- cluded under this heading. Many were of the opinion that the awards should be made at a school assem» bly or hamwet. Others thought; that all captains should receive ma- jor letters, which is practically the case. at present. A difference in the minor awards in major sports and those in minor sports was also advocated. Even the managers broke into print, when one man stated that the assistant in major sports should be in some manner. Numerals for Freshman? One of the best ideas presented in the list was that of having fresh— men eligible only for numerals. There is a great deal to be gained by such a change and undoubtedly an attempt will he made to secure it. The final query called for sug- gestions for a suitable set of col- lege colors, and those whose ideas were expressed in writing agreed fairly well. The majority thought managers rewarded that either black or maroon with a true old gold would be appreciated by all. it? % MEMJKE liauti’nwhianiiw row . . u... .5... WWW M u...
