HOnored by Teachers.

Thursday of last week, while
the teachers in attendance at
State College Summer School
were assembled in groups by
counties in which they teach, the
teachers of Blair county elected
Miss Barbara Martin to be their
booster for that county. AT the
annual institute the booster is
supposed to appear before the
institute and in a few words give
the State College Summer School
a boost. The value of the school
is inestimable to teachers and
every teacher should take advant-
age.

CLOSE DECISION IN
CITY CHAMPIONSHIP
Goal Scored After Time in
Brandeis-C Creighton Basket
Ball Game.
TIE AT 20 POINTS TILL THEN

After conference between coaches
of the two teams, captains and Off
Gals, the decision as to who was
winner of the Brandeis-Creighton
game last night was left to the bas-
ket ball national rules committee. The
score now stands tied at twenty-five
points, according to the ruling of
Referee Sam Waugh, and the decision
of the rules committee whether
goal thrown by Burkenroad just as
time was called, counts or not, will
either make the Brandeis a winner or
will leave the game as it now stands.
If the goal counts the store team
wins and the series is over, but if it
doesn't count the game is tie and
another game will be played.
The ball was in the air as the
whistle blew, admittedly, situation
which, as decided in recent games,
would make Brandeis winner.
At the end of the first half the
Brandeis team were leading, 10 to E.
When final time was called the score
was tied at twenty points, and an
extra fve-minute period brought forth
a real battle. Shields of the store
team had already been disqualified for
roughness.
The first half saw the Brandeis
squad at their best and Creighton at
their poorest. The Brandeis team
excelled in team work in this half
and displayed great accuracy in shoot
ing baskets, Stryker getting four
fields in this half. Team work on the
part of Creighton in this half was at
a standstill and their shooting was
poor.
The second half saw Platz and Lutz
sidetracked for Haley and Mulholland,
and to this pair OF subs great deal
of credit is due. Sheer team work on
the part of Mulholland and Parrish,
and basket shooting by Haley, brought
the score I'D to a tie before time was
called.
Creighton Spurts.
In this half the heavier store team
were completely outclassed, Crelgh-
ton making fourteen points, while
Brandeis were annexing four. With
the score 20 to 16, with the store
team leading, Haley shot two beautl-
full baskets just before time was
The crowd went wild when this
same Haley opened the extra FIVE
minute period with another field goal,
putting his team in the lead and Stry-
ker, the Brandeis star, tied the score
again with another field goal. It was
here that Burkenroad, standing in the
center of the floor threw the ball in
the general direction of the basket
inst as time was called, the ball pass
ing squarely through the goal after
the final whistle had blown. Sum-
