|day night they won the beautiful
ifirst place trophy by defeating
| Peabody 53 to 52 in a game that
|was a real thriller:
| The Peabody team was the
|dark horse of the tournament. A
|a last minute pick up bunch bui-
‘It around the flashy high school
senior, Hoyt Baker who made 27
|of Peabodys 52 points while Earl
|Roth was guarding him most of
| the game. When theyscore many
‘points on Roth they have to be
good. It seemed to us that this
boy Baker hada part in every
play during the game. He comes
jnearer being everyplace at once
ithan any player we have ever
| seen,

The college that gets this boy
will be doing allright. |
