y. ID. Shows Improvement.
The work of the Hoosier quint
during the first half was the best
seen here since the opening home
game of the season when, with
Daley and Grant both in the line
up. the Notre Dame aggregation
easily trimmed the West Virginia
Wesleyan team. The passing was
! better and the men were much more
accurte in basket tossing than they
have been in recent games.
For a time during the second half,
the visitors led in the scoring for the
period, but the Hoosiers braced and
shot into the lead, playing a better
brand of basketball.
McDermott was undoubtedly the
star of the game, but Cliff Cassidy,
playing throughout the contest at
right forward. put up a clever ex-
hibition and tossed several difficult
/ baskets.
Daley Important Cog.
Daley, playing his first game in
some time, was an important cog
in the teamwark of the Hoosiers,
while Capt. McKenna played an eX-
cellent guarding game. Tom King,
| in his new position at center acquit-
ted himself most creditably; he toss
/ ed three field baskets and played a
fast floor game.

visiting stars Vonachen led in the
scoring for St Viator's with four
field baskets and three free throws.
