The situation was re- versed, howevci', in the rest of the game, as only one free throw was sunk while twelve baskets were made. It is encouraging to know i that the boys can hit the basket after bring: fouled as a large number of the games last year were lost by one or two points that could have been made thus easily. First Half Slow The men from the south side seemed headed toward success when one of their forwards, Conwill, made a basket immediately after the toss- up. Then Mei-'1. took the ball from Heike following quickly upon the second toss-up and scored one of the few baskets that Armour could get during- the first half. Then another basket for Junior College and the game started to lag in interest. The Armour players were a bit handin capped as they were prepared for la mun—tovman defense and ran up against a zone defense. They were ,somewhat disheartened due to Cap— Lain Lauchiskis sitting on the side- lines with a leg injury. The invading team had a way of streaking toward their basket and striking quickly; their comparatively low score from such plays was due to the excellent guarding; of “Pop” Warner and Dollennmicr. Christoph also had a big, part in getting- the ball away and taking- it down under ‘his basket. Interest was added to the game by the spills that occurred when six or eight fellows would all , go for the ball at the same time.
