Conrad's Basketball Crew Hangs Sec
Ond Defeat on DOWNSTAIRS by
Score of 80 to %.
BY PAUL DAHLEN.

Augustanas speed boys placed one
more victory on the shelf Saturday
night by defeating the State Normal
university five at the college gym by
narrow margin, 1926. The game,
which illustrated the reported hard
work OF the locals, showed at times a
wonderful ability on the part of Augie's
hopes. Their floor work has improved
and the defense has been strengthened
accordingly.
Reeves stepped into the limelight
again with total of nine field goals
on the right side of the ledger. Swede-
berg also shone as one of the lights
because of his accurate tossing. For
the visitors, Thompson, occupying a
forward bunk, rolled eight counters
from the field and by virtue of his tai
lies received plaudits of the rooters.
Tuesday night marks the height Of
mid-season enthusiasm of the Augie
rooters, the occasion being the migra-
ton to Aledo to again test the steel
of the William and Vashti knights Of
the Melted hoop. The game which the
A men played Saturday evening
brought joy to the heart of the follow
ers of the indoor sport and the hopes
to defeat Vashti glimmered more
brightly than ever. The new method
featuring Augie's play has wrought
wonders in their game, and promises
still greater improvements.

ROrGHNEss FEATURES THE TILT
Both Teams Slump Badly. Displaying
Poor Formal Taber Proves Life
of Winners Throughout.
(Ry ROB OLMSTED.)

In a slow but rough basketball game
on the local high school gymnasium
floor Saturday evening, the Rock Is
land squad trimmed the five from ke-
vance by the score of 40 TO "a. The
game was not by any means credita-
BILE one to either team, both sides show
ing up poorly and showing remarka-
BILE inaccuracy in their passes
The local squad made its worst
showing Saturday night since the game
with the West Liberty five, the second
game of the season. This was perhaps
due in great measure to the disorgan-
ization Of the team occasioned by
shifting Dempsey to center. but this
can not fully explain the lack Of pep"
and spirit on the part Of the team.
Poor passes and sleeping on the job
were the rule and something in which
the whole team INDUCED.
Al Taber was practically the only
man on the team who did not appear
to be much affected by this general
slump. He played a good game
quite ably by his brother, Ed Taber,
the team work between these two be-
ing by far the best that was to be
found on either side. At guard, Cur
ley" Anderson and Huber did the best
work, occasionally breaking up the at
tempts of the Kewanee forwards with
a good bit OF speed.
Visitors Show Badly.
The visiting performers certainly
can not be said to have made any bet
ter relative showing than the locals,
as they showed themselves very weak
both in team work and in basket shoot
ing. Team work was considerably
more of an exception than the rule
and, as a result. the Kewanee lads
tried a great many long distance
passes, frequently shooting from the
center of the floor In the latter hall
luck was with them in a few of these
shots, as several of them managed to
find the hoop. Indeed, in the second
half, the score for the half was in ke.
wanee's favor until the lasttrfve min
utes of play, when Al Taber began tC
beat them at their own game, succeed
ing in placing several fortunate Ions
distance shots through the basket
However, in point of being able to fine
the basket when there was no excuse
for their not doing so, the visitors were
exceptionally weak and notably infer
ior to the local squad.
For kewanee, Tesch at center ant
Captain Bradbury at guard were the
big men and were constantly breaking
into Rock Islands plays and stealing
passes.
The Iineups of the two teams were
as follows:
Rock Island-Al Taber, IF; Ed Ia
