brook by thé one-sided score of
24-5, the cadet grapplers came
back in the next match to hold
the older and more experienced
Fort Wayne YMCA team to an
8-6 score. A fall in the last bout
enabled the upstate Y team to
come from behind to take the
match. In a return match at
Fort Wayne the cadets dropped
another close decision by a
score of 11-10.

Eight falls, four by the cadets
and four by Armour Tech of
Chicago, featured the meet be-
tween the two teams here on
March 6. A draw in the 115 pound class and a
decision in the 175 pound class gave the Chica-
go team the margin to win by a score of
2414-211.

Bill Sandow Jr., of St. Louis, was elected
captain during the season and will be succeed-
ed next year by George Hibbert, a second class-
man from Toledo, O. Seven members of the
team to receive varsity letters at the end of the
season were Captain Sandow, Captain-elect
Hibbert, Albert Allen, Robert Stewart, Robert
Hoffman, William Bockhoff, and Curtis Noblitt.

BASKETBALL

Led by Captain Bill Phillips, all-tournament
forward from DeKalb, Ill, who scored 152
points during the season, and who, according to
Coach Oliver, is one of the best prep or high
school basketball players that he has ever
seen, the basketball team showed a good brand

of ball throughout the season.

During the regular season the Maroons won
nine of their thirteen games, and then defeated
Wayland Academy of Beaver Dam, Wisc., and
Harvard School of Chicago in the tournament,
before giving away to St. Bede’s Academy of
Peru, IIl., in the quarter finals. St. Bede’s went
on to win the tourney.

The entire squad deserve great praise for
the way in which they worked together as a
coordinated team and for the way in which all
showed real Culver fight throughout the sea-
son. Broten and Borden showed up particularly
well at guard, as did McFadden at center. Mc-
Fadden was perhaps the most improved player
on the squad all year, and his all-around abil-

ity on the floor and under the basket drew the

praise of all who saw him in action. He was
second high scorer of the season with 125
points. Beckmeyer, Slo-
cum, Herron, Price,
Henderson, Koebel,
Cohn, and Morton all
saw action in the tour-
nament.

The largest score
made by the team dur-
ing the season was the
41-14 rout of the Cen-
tral YMCA cagers from
Chicago. The worst de-
feat was registered by
the Notre Dame B team
which set Culver back
to the count of 41-20.
