Deitaib Game bright
Spot of “fear

 

By Herb Sher

Ending the season with a 56 to 35
defeat by the De Sales basket-ball
five from Toledo, the Armour squad
looked back upon a fair season of 5
victories against 9 defeats, five of
the defeats being the last games of
the schedule.

The Techawks started the season
with a 30 to 29 victory over Chicago
Teachers College, Ed O’Connor, a
newcomer, scoring ten points to be
high scorer of Armour, and Hank
Sliwa, a sophomore making his first
appearance with the varsity, was run-
her—up.

Arkansas St. Second Victim

Arkansas State was the second
victim in a row for Armour to the
tune of 37-34, with Capt. Ed Swan-
son taking individual scoring honors,
throwing 15 points through the hoop.

Defeat struck the Armour five at
Lake Forest when the chhawks lost
33 to 29 despite Sliwa's standout
playing. Failure to stop Harrison,
Lake Forest forward who scored 12
points helped defeat Armour.

The next game with De Kalb set
the chhawks back on a. winning
basis when they beat the potential
Teachers 36431. This game was the
most prized victory of the season for
the Armour quintet.

U. of C. Has Easy Time

The most important game of the
season, the game against Chicago
University, was played next. Ar-
mour immediately went into a 6-1
lead but were then stamped upon by
the Maroons, who went on to win
48—11. Only three men, Swanson,
Nol'kus, and Sher scored for the
chhawks duringc the entire game.
Lounshury of Chicago scored 20
points to take scoring honors.

A return game with Lake Forest
also resulted in defeat, as the Lake
Forest five overcame the Tech team
55-45. Maiman scored 20 points for
the visitors, while Swanson took high
honors for the home five by scoring
1 1 points.

George Williams helped Armour
not back in a winning stride by no-
ing down to defeat 30 to 26 in a dc—
fensivc battle.

Elmhurst Wins in Overtime
Defeat again struck the Armour

quintet when they met Elmhurst Col~
loge. After being behind at half

time 17-12, the Techawks rallied to:

a 29-23 lead with 1‘/; minutes left
to play. However the team failed to
hold this lead and when the gun went
off the score stood at a tie 31-31.. In
the overtime Elmhurst made 6 points
while holdingc Armour scoreless and
won 37-3].

The Coliseum was the scene of the
second game between the Chicago
Teachers College, and the Techawks,
with the Teachers again falling vic—
tim to Armour's attack. King of
Chicago Teachers scored 17 points

but could not pull his team through: It will be remembered that a little‘

for when the smoke of battle cleared,
Armour was on the long end of a
34—29 score. In this game 5 men
went out of the frame on fouls.

Trip Proves Disaslrous

At this juncture a disastrous los-
ing; streak struck the Techawks for
they lost all of their remaining: five
games. The streak started on a trip
to Toledo where they fell to De Sales
College 5135. They next journeyed
to Detroit, where the University of
Detroit made 60 points to Armour’s
35 in routing the Chicagoans. Hank
Sliwo, Armour forward, made good
in these two games by scoring 23
points.

After returning home the team met
North Central, but despite the ab-
sence of Leasure, North Central star
forward, went down to defeat 29-25.
Rupc Weber played a nice game for
Armour and looked good despite de-
feat.

Detroit Tech came here next and
helped Armour’s losing" streak by
heating the Techawks 40—33. De
Sales ended the season for Armour
and the college basketball careers
for Capt. Swanson, Kubicku, and
Hofmann with the 5635 defeat of the
Tee-hawks previously mentioned.

Returns give Capt. Swanson scor-l

ins: honors with 119 points, and Ed
O’Connor second with 81. points. The

Tochawks scored 446 points in their?

14 games for an average of 32 points
per game.

Visitors Too Fast
For flagers

 

Unable to cope with the superior
passing and perfect teamwork of the
Visiting De Sales College of Toledo,
the chhawks quintet dropped its
final game of the year by the tune of
56 to 35.

From the offset it was apparent
that the local team was in for a great
deal of runninx.r around as the visitors
threw the hall all over the court as
they sank one shot after another. De—
spite the terrific speed of their op-
ponents, the Institute team stayed
close until midway in the first period
when Thompson and Blackburn got
busy and tallied 10 points in rapid
successsion.

For the Techawks. Norkus was the
individual star with fourteen points
to his credit, whilc Swanson‘s six was
next in line. For the Toledo team,
Blackburn with eleven was top man.

Coming: out for the half trailing: 32
to 17, the chhawks rallied and drew
within ten points as De Sales seemed
to tire, but the rally failed as the
Stenireritcs tired and De Sales stepped
out and constantly increased their
lead.

The amazing- item in the De Sales
attack was the fact that all but one
of their twenty-two baskets was a
push-up shot, and that shot was a
pot shot from the free throw line.

By Jim Fahey

We had heard several stories con—
coming this De Sales quintet which
struck Armour last week, and now
we believe every one of them. In our
short experience of seven years of
observing basketball, we can say that
only once have we seen a team as
well coached as this Toledo team,
which, figuratively, ran the legs oil’
the Techawks and that team won a
National Interscholastic Basketball
championship.

>2 11L ’1'-

This Toledo outfit had speed to
spare, perfect passing, perfect team-
work, no dribbling, and an uncan—
ny ability to sink push up shots. A,
study of the records shows that only
one, mind you, just om- llosket was
made from other than beneath the
basket. That one was a pot shot from
the edge of the circle.

1; a a

Against this attack, the, chhnwks
threw a fighting spirit such as has
never been shown before. Despite the
opposition’s rapid scoring, the black
and gold colors were flying: high un'
til the boys just couldn’t go any
more. To pick a standout for the
chllowks would be like looking for a
loss in Loyola’s schedule, Swanson,
Kubicka, and Hoffman all played
their last games, as if it were for
the championship, but they had to
give way to Lloyd Norkue, who was
high scorer for the Technwks and
chicf—pcst—in—general for the De-
Sales outfit defensively.

19 S‘ W

It was a fine sight to see the more
velous turnout, of Armour students
who came out to see the last game
of the year. Had the two teams
withdrawn from the floor at any time
the building): would have been as silent
as awe and private as a grave.

a a a:

Basketball men do dcscrve an ex-
pression of appreciation for the ef-
forts they made this past season. We
believe that if we inform the student
body that this team forgot to enroll
in the nlibiology course, it will ex»
plain our feeling. Regardless of
what has been said before, the team
jtlid their host against superior oppo-
lnition and what more could any one
usk fol"!

the swimmers and
wrestlers arc hitting: the winning
ways in full stride. The water wing-
ci-s have won three in a row while
the gruntcrs tied that feat lust Fri-
Iduy against De Kalb. The latter
1earned a big feather through their
victory over the Boilermakers from
Purdue a week ago Saturday. It
was a hard job to get a Big Ten team
to wrestle the chhawks and now
we understand why. The Sonny boys
are nobody’s pushover and the big
schools knowing: it, keep away from
, the boys while they are winning. We
1don’t blame them.

Seems like

 

i being too ill to make the trip. As a
matter of fact, their best backstrok-
er was forced to stay in Peoria, tem-
porarily made immovable with the
lflu. Thus it remains a question as
1 to whether Blume and Talcott could
i have taken the backstroke if the Brad-
llcy man was there.
1 Bradley Meet To Be Close
l Nevertheless, a 32-30 meet means
1 that another match with Bradley will
1 result in a similar, close»fought con-
3 test. In the short pool it is a ques—
l tion of who can make the best turns,
l as there arc seven turns to be made
i in the 100 yard free style, instead of
l the usual four. It was noticeable in
‘the last meet with Bradley that the
,l’eoriamen always came out of the
lturns a little ahead of the pursuing:
A.I.T. tankster.
1 When March 8 comes around, the
date of the match with Bradley, it is
l hoped that both teams will be at full

Marleen Win Revenge
Meet With Teachers

Revenge was the word at the Ar—
mour gym last Friday night when the

 

Techawks outwrestled the De Kalb
Teachers in a close, hurd~f0ught
match, 17-13, to make up for an

earlier defeat at the hands of the
Teachers, 19-9. The outcome of the
match was in doubt up to the final,
bout, the victory coming; on Harri-l
son’s decision over Hopkins of thci
Teachers on a time advantage of1
5:34. The Engineers won on four
decisions and a pin. Captain Tull-
;zl'en got that only Armour pin in
short time, slightly dislocniing his op—
ponent's shoulder.

McDaniel and Warren fought an3
even fight at 128. At the end of the:
first three minutes neither man had 1
been laid on the mat, so, on the flip1
of a coin, McDaniel chose to be down. ,
For the next three minutes the tide,
of battle sec-sawed hack and forth
with Won-en of the ’l‘cachers heinirl
put down at thr- slx minute i‘nnrk.‘
From there Warren went on to beat‘
McDaniel with .1 time advantage ofl
2:01 and u‘ivc the visitors n three
point lead.

Bill Mashinter, president and numv
her one sharpshooter of the Armour
Tech Rifle Club, has released the

the first of April. This schedule in-
cludes only the postal meets which
are definitely arranged. Others may
be added as challenges are accepted.

Wheaton College and Brooklyn
Tech have been sent scorecards,
which were fired last Friday, but the
results of these matches are not as

Wheaten is a return duel, the Tech-
men having.r defeated the college
squad earlier in the your.

Oil ll‘iclds Rifle Club of Montana

Besides Mashinter, the regular
members of the shooting: team are
Gus Galamluk, “It. ‘Zombi’" Miller,

Quiver Meets
senses ”Wheaties

This week will be an eventful one
for the boxers and wrestlers, for in
this time more of Armour's athletes
will have a chance to show their
prowess than at any other time dur-
ing the year. Meets with Case School
of Applied Science in Cleveland and
Culver Military Academy will send
a group of about 30 of Coach Weiss-
man’s boys out in search of victories
next Saturday.

The meet with Case will be the
first time that the two schools have
met on the mat. Case will present
a, formidable lineup, and the ch-
hawks ”A” mat team will carry Ar.
mom’s colors into the fray, Since

Hanna, 1,46; ngrclli, 155; Kasmiero-
wicz, 165, Tullgl'en, 175, and Pocius,
whose arm should be healed by that
time, at heavy.

Both the wrestlers and boxers will
have a chance to see action at Cul-
vcr. Last year the engineers came

sion. Peterson, Kotulla and Erickson,
fighting in the Loyola section, were
defeated in their first bouts. Col—
ant, figl'ltiny,r in the same section, won
