Mclaughlin and Bundy. and Pell and

did the champions eVvhange word

while. ON the other hand. their oppo-
Dents roared directions back and forth.
Not only did the strain of this con
slant calling do something to tire out

Bundy an inkling of what their oppo-

Pell and Behr not infrcquently went
after the same ball. while there was no
flaw whatever in the team play of the
champions. even though they were
often second in individual brilliance.
