Sophs Show Fight Showing the same spirit, fight and smooth playing as in their watmup session, they should offer the sophs some fast and still? competition. Sev- eral of the squad are prep school let- ter-men who should make good var- sity material in a year or two. The juniors, with Hebenstreit, Kubik, Brown, Dunbar, and Sheehan, and coaches like O’Brien, O’Connell and Wagner, are bidding again for the title which they cap— tured as freshmen and retained last year when they trounced both the frosh and the juniors. The question of supremacy will be definitely settled Thursday at 4:30 when last night’s winner and the victor of the 'i‘rosh~soph contest tonight meet to vie for finalist honors. Seniors Have Smooth Team The seniors are back again this . year, managed by Ray Bacci. They have a smOOth team with Liebmann, center, Taradash and Ikenn in the forward line, and Drcis and Skuza at guard. They lost in the finals last year to the sophs after whipping the graduated seniors. Cage Practice to Begin November 3 The first basketball practice will be held in the gym November 3 when Coach Grant Stenger will undertake the coaching of an Armour cage squad for the first time. All aspirants for the varsity are urged to come out at this time. After about two weeks practice in the gym the squad will move to the armory at 3401 Went- worth avenue where all home games are played. Tough Schedule Ahead for Cagcrs A tough schedule has been ar— ranged for this season. Fourteen games have been booked to date, with prospects of another to be played about the first of December. The us- ual trip will be made in February, after the finals, to play Detroit Uni— versity and Michigan State Teachers College. With the return of three letter- men and several capable substitutes Armour has an excellent chance for 'a fine showing. Heike, returning let- ter-man and star forward, was high point man last year, netting 185 points in 15 games. Merz and O’Brien, also lettermen of last year, netted a total of 118 points in their number of games played. The loss of co-captains Warner and Dollen‘ maier, veteran guards, will be severe- ly felt but likely prospects for their positions are O’Connell and Wagner. Freshmen to Start Later Freshman practice will be an- nounced at a later date. The fresh- man team will he coached by Warn- er and will play freshman squads of schools in the Chicago area.

The boys of ’40 earned their poor reputation in the touchball tourney, having forfeited two games. A! 1b The newcomers blame their poor showing on the fact that they have too much homework (tch, tchl) and that they don’t know how to go about organizing a team. Why doesn’t some upper-classmen lend a hand? i; it it Rain and mud! Mud and rain! Out of six touchball games scheduled for last week, only two were played. ’l‘wo games were postponed and two forfeited. 9?

Although the team feels the loss. of such men as Schmidt, Sumner, and Patterson, all captains in their day, a huge turnout of candidates, along with six regulars and five alter- nates from last year, bids well to bring forth a team of no small capa- bilities. Seventy-One Mon Out At present there are a total of seventy-one men signed up for box- ing and wrestling“. The wrestling squad which will probably start the season is made up chiefly of men from last year. In the lightweight division at 118 pounds there is Mc- Daniel, while at 125 pounds are Ba- sile and Adelson.
