Although several of the varsity basket
ball teams at Gallaudet were out on the
side lines because of ineligibility. that
quint more than made good showing
against the goal tossers from Catholic
University. and but for the fact that the
guards failed to cover up at critical mo-
ments, the game would have been much
closer. Catholic University took the long
end Of the 34-to-24 score.
Both teams were unable to find them
selves at the beginning and the only scor-
ing for several minutes was by the free
toss route. Cartwright having the bet
ter Of this argument. r. Wenger then
started things by tieing up the count with
a beautiful goal from court From this
time on until the end of the period the
game was fast and interesting. although
the period ended with the score Il to II
in favor IF the BrookIand five.
In the second half the Gala udet team
took 4 new lease on life as they soon
We're within hailing distance of the Red

of the guards to cover the Catholic Uni

the score to again soar and at this
