Tuesday, February 7, 1939 ARMOUR TECH NEWS Page Three lichen, the boieslllifhlp Capers; North Central hiasi Armour hoe bwanson and Sliwa head Scorers on Trip By HOWARD DOYLE Had Tech been looking for easy victories on its eastern trip, it wouldn‘t have picked for its opposi» tion the winning teams of the Uni- versity of Detroit or DeSales College, both of whom defeated Armour by substantial margins last week. Ar- mour Tech played games of a good ball club. but couldn’t twist up the defense of the Titans, or stop the first break of the Sailors of Toledo. For its second defeat of the trip, Armour dropped to Detroit Saturday night 60-35, in the Naval Armory. Switching from man to man defense to zone early in the game, Tech forced most of the Titan scoring back to the guards, two of whom tied for high point honors with 11 points apiece. Accurate loop shots edged the Dctroiters ahead as the tight Titan defense held Armour to three field goals in the first half. The halftime score was 28-14. Detroit Unbeaten at Home When Detroit had built up even a larger lead, the Techawks loosened up and scored field goals—two set-ups and a long by Herb Sher, and two short shots by Captain Swanson. Al— together Tech converted 15 out of ' 19 free tosses. It was the 8th vic- tory in 11 starts and the 7th on the home floor for the Titans. Succumbing to a fast break offense in a second half rally, the Techawks lost to DcSales College 51-35 last Thursday night in Toledo, Ohio. The Sailors had a stormy time of it dur— ing: the first half, but managed to win out for their 11th victory in 14 starts. Fast Break Wearien chhawks Armour Tech's scoring was paced by Captain “Big Stoop” Swanson and Hank Sliwa, both of them cupping scoring honors of the [game with 13 point: apiece. Meanwhile the Sailors liaraged holes in "i‘ceh‘s tired second half defense by employing all of its 1:3 man squad, 11 of them participat- ing in the scoring. For the most part of the inaugural stanza, Coach Stcnger's crew was leading DcSales from one, to four points. Just before the gun, however, O‘Connell and Mosser looped field goals from far out to give DoSales a halftime lead, 21420. DeSales had rallied for 18 points in the second half attack while Tech took three free tosses, before Ed O’Connor looped in Armour’s first fielder. Barret-Smith accounted for two fieldch before the close of the game to bring Tech up 5135. .n Bahama, Tankers Too Strong for Techawks Before the fatal exam week struck the Armour campus, a group of cour- ageous Techawkers braved the fero- cious tricks of winter to swim against Dc Pauw at Greencastle, Ind. The meet was swum on Saturday, Jan. 21. Although the Armour mermen put up a strong battle, the De Pauw squad, a more experienced team, man- aged to win, 49-35. By piling up 35 points, this year‘s wearers of the red, yellow, and block have accomplished something which last year’s team did not. Even though the distances were longer than the local lads were used to swimming, no engineer made a bad showing. With but one or two exceptions, the events were very hotly contested. “fiiop Leasure" ls Theme the Team kracrices Having completed a rather disap— pointing road trip, the Armour Tec- hawks returned today to their own court to prepare for the approaching game with their arch rival, North Central. The battle scheduled for next Tuesday at Naperville will be the sole encounter between the two teams and promises to be a “bum- dinger." The Armour boys will be fortified for the game by the return of Nor— kus and Hoffman and although neither will likely start, both will see plenty of action before the game ends. O’Connor who has been handi' Medley T‘mm Win” capped by a bum hand and a severe Armour’s surprise ““0le team cold is expected back in shape, and COHSiBtini; 0T WWW. SUN/01h and Capt. Winblad, let the cat out of the bag by beating the host's team which had previously whipped Indiana U’s team. Blume put the medley team into a half length lead by his back» stroking efforts. Stowcll held the lead, and Winblad, suffering from a cold, still managed to finish five feet ahead of the De Pauw anchor man. Perhaps the greatest thrill of the meet, one which had the jammed gab lery screaming with excitement, was the 200 yard breast stroke. Bell pulled himself into an early lead of a few feet. Hutchings, Armour‘s sec- ond entry, held on to a slight third this with the prior addition will again put the Institute at full strength. Leature, No. Central Star Practice, this week, will consist mostly of an attempt to devise a scheme by which “Slick" Leasure, North Central's high scoring.r for- ward, might be stopped. The neces- sity of halting the Cardinal flash can be seen from a study of his record. So far this year, this 190 pound junior has totaled 79 points in 6 games. This record looked better before the Carroll games since his three shots only grossed two baskets against the Wisconsinites. Last year i he ran up 215 points in 14 games place. For the first 150 yards the for a new Cardinal record. four swimmers were almost stroke Another feature about this Nanci" and stroke. In the last fifty yards, however, Bell lost about half his lead, and Hutchings dropped to forth. The last length was the thriller. Bell, pulling harder than ever, barely man- aged to touch out his opponent, and all four of the swimmers came in as fast as one can say one, two, three, villc star is his ability to play the full route without slowing: up. AL though he never played a minute in high school, his time of participation last year was 544 minutes out of a possible 560. Len Biober considers “Slick" his best product as well as the finest player ever to come out of Dodge Taker, Three Seconds North Central, Again, as last year, the Lou Geh- rig of the water proved to be Ray Dodge. By takim,r three seconds, he also was Armour's top point man. Ray achieved second places in the 220 yard free style, 100 yard free style, and 440 yard free style events. To swim all of these and make a good showing in one afternoon cer. tainly is test of a swimmcr's ability. All of Armour’s swimmers made an excellent showing. I’crhaps when DePauw meets Armour at. Bartlett Pool in early March, the tables will be turned and the Techawks will be the victors.

With the opening of the second semester comes the announcement by Tom Clark, intramural manager, that one more intramural sports will fill the headlines. Swimming, track, and bowling: are the activities scheduled for the ensuing weeks with softball an event of the distant future. Bowling will start next week ac- cording to Clark and will be played under the same conditions as existed last year. Players vxill shoulder their own expenses such as car-fare, alley fees, etc. identical rules will cover this tour- nament as did last year. Each depart- ment will be allowed to enter one team which will be composed of five men and one alternate. The two highest totals for the tournament will meet in the finals in a match in which the highest of the two wins the champion- ship. The number of opportunities each team will be allowed to make a North Central a large edge but such comparison was shown the door 1on1,r ago and it is only the actual game that counts.

By .111... raiicy See where two of Armour‘s “A" men have returned to the fold, mean- ing Irv Scidcnberg and Joe Pucocha. In case you have forgotten (we don’t know how you could) Irv was co- captain, catcher, leading: hitter, the spirit, and the brains of last year's baseball team while Joe was one half of the pitching staff. one Remember the game at Lake For- est when Krone pitched his heart out in that 14 inning, 7 to 6 defeat that c ackcd Armour". 14 game winning streak, Ei0i(l€nb(!lf,i“s knee, and the team. In that game Irv got six for seven and yet didn’t score a run and Joe made a spectacular, game sav— ing, catch in deep right center in ad— dition to hitting a home run through left. no in ii Wonder if Joe will play this year. At present he says no but let’s wait until he hears the crack of the but against ball and the glory and thrill of feeling the spikes digging- into the turf, the flash of cleats, and the impact of leg against bag. Then we’ll ask him. .1. m in But baseball belongs to the spring and winter is still with us and basket ball is the sport of the hour. The Techawks returned from a disastrous road trip Sunday, dropping both games and leaving their record at 5 wins and 6 losses. 1) u :1 This record doesn’t speak well for the team when one considers who they beat. In Chicago Teachers, they faced a small inferior team that shouldn’t have come close, yet bothf games were tight. Arkansas State: was a “lit, Georg-c Williams a set-z up, and Deltalb, a bunch of sopho—l mores still learning: the game. Won-l dcr if the team wouldn't do bettcrl if they'd all follow Eddie O'Connor'al forte and try all the time and also re- 1 member it takes five men, playingl together, to make a good team. 1 1. 4v North Central is the chhawk's next foe and the boys have to figure a. way to stopa afollow named Ilcasurcl whoso been doing: a mighty mess ofl scoring this yet“. Detroit Tech and DeSalcs will bring the schedule tol a close. .11 l 111 who i at w Ham off to Paul Henrikaen passed up the Detroit trip so some one else could make the trip.

Standardization of the award sweaters is being strivcn for by the Honor A this year.

(Singers, beaten by lElmhurst, Victoria in Coliseum bottle Coupling good rebound work with a flock of free throws, Armour's cagcrs once more gave Chicago Teachers College the short end of the score when they took the Normal- ites 34 to 29 at the Coliseum. Tho game was played before an audience of 2,000 spectators January 21 as the curtain raiser of a twin bill of- fered by the Coliseum. Led by Eddie O’Connor, the Tec- hawka held a 17 to 8 lead at half time and, although the Teachers came tremendously close, retained the load for the remainder of the game. O’Connor scored nine points before being ejected on fouls in the first two minutes of the second half, but Sliwa took up where Eddie left off and tallied nine points. High point man for Armour was Swanson with ten points. These enabled Ed to finish second to King of Normal, who sank seven baskets and a free throw. Wild Painters Spoil Chances Ragged passing after O'Connor’s departure prevented the Institute from running up a larger score. A continual fast break was useless due to the inability of the passcrs to find ._........... the receivers. The Normalites were handicapped} by the loss of three players through fouls and this slowed Lip both their offensive and defensive play. Ile- spite this, the Teachers came within one point of tying the score in the last few minutes before successive baskets by Sehercr, Sliwa and Swan» son put the game on ice. Elmhurst Wins 37~3l Unsuccessful at freezing- the hall in the last minute of play, the ch~ hawks were forced to award an over- time period to an inspired Elmhurst five, the latter going- on to triumph 1.1. 37—3 1.

It was the first meet 01' the season for the Techawks and the absence of some men and lack of conditioning on the part of others contributed largely to North Central’s superiority. The meet was fairly even until North Central scored cit-an sweeps in the quarter mile and half mile to take a commanding lead. in the first event, the 60-yard dash, Rikli of North Central took an easy first to give the Redbirds a 5—4 lead. The mile run followed, and it was here that Armour's new milcr, Fisher, came through with a well run race to take first place and even the score at nine all. Harv Drops Clone Ones The running: of the high hurdles event brought forth one of the clos- est finishes of the day. Rothenberg, of Armour, lost the decision to a Redbird for first, and Barry of Ar— mour, lost a very close decision for third. The finish of the low hurdles event was almost exactly the some as the highs. In the two mile run Finnegan was forced to drop out when his Slide troubled him. That is the some thing which hindered him last season. The results oi" the shot put grave Armour a first and second as Van- dckieft and Burman came through in that order. Vandekieft scored an- other first in the high jump when White and E117. of North Central were unable to clear 5 feet 6 inches. The pole vault was the scene of an- other Redbird victory, as White cleared 12 feet 6 inches. In the last event, the relay, the Redbirds showed what their excellent mile relay team could do as they paced the distance in 3132.5. Elwood, of the Tochawks, was very fortunate in escaping injury in the polo vault. With the bar set at 12 fact, be came running; down the run- way, and set his pole in the slot. Just as he reached the top of his jump, the pole broke. Managing" to twist away, Elwood landed in the pit with only a cut lip as the result of his experience. ,2: ... ._.”__ .
