WHITING. IND, Jan 3e-The whit
ing high school basketball team which
has proven to be one of the most con-
sistent winners since the days Of Water.
Benson and Bartusks. is now leading
the procession In the race Tor the bas-
kctbaH championship or Lake county.
The Hammond high school team had
the bunting safely tucked under their
arms until last Friday night. when they
met and were defeated by the Whiting
team, 1871. This was the first defeat
Tor Hammond in the county race and the
third consecutive win for the uearers Of
the green and white in the chase for
the flag
without doubt the championship
race this year will be q corker-all the
teams are still in the running as The
above averages show. The Hammond
team this year under Coach Hess have
proven themselves a strong contender
and the players are filled with the never
say die spirit" which makes it all tho
harder TO beat them. East Chicago. de-
spite the fact that they have had trou-
bic in keeping their coaches have put a
strong team in the field and are conf
dent Of winning the county race.
Both Crown Point and Lowell who
have never been taken seriously as con
I tenders for the championship are now
playing such a brand Of snappy basket
ball they have forced the other teams
to consider them stin in the race.
The Whiting high school team this
year. under Mr.. Grub have had one
of the most successful seasons they
have experienced in recent years. Al
though the team is light. only averag-
ing one hundred and thirty pounds, they
have proven that 81 is within their pow
er to defeat heavier opponents. This
they demonstrated last Friday night
when they defeated Hammond whose
team averages one hundred and fifty
pounds The small Whiting forwards
ran their heavier opponents around the
floor until they could no longer stand
the pace and it was then that Whiting
scored the points that defeated Ham
mond Hammond during the first ten
minutes of play scored nine points, but
in the last thirty minutes they were
unable to cage a basket and made two
points on free throws.
on Friday night. next. the Whiting
high will teke on the Calumet high team
of South Chicago who have been having
things their own way in the suburban
league The Whiting tossers realize
they have a hard nut TO crack and are
putting IN strenuous week Of practice.

THIS EVE
(By JIMMIE RAYD

WHITING. IND. Jan 30-It is here
The big game Of the year for basket
falls VIII be played this evening at the
Whiting high school auditorium when
the Whiting Owls play the invading
Illinois Athletic Club Of Chicago. Last
year this game attracted the largest
crowd that has ever attended a basket
ball game and this year the attraction
ought to be just as great.
The I. A. c. are coming to Whiting
with their entire outfit consisting of
twelve men, everyone Of whom is a
good man. They never do things by
halves. these wearers of the Tri-Color
and viii again attempt~to show the fans
of whiting that their organization is a
superior one. Those fans who have fol-
lowed the fortunes of the Chicago team
throughout the past few years know
that this Chicago club does not spare
expense nor energy TO get a. good team
TO represent them.
The Whiting owls are preparing for
the invading Zoe. The locals arc in
good trim and this was evidenced by
the game against the Joliet Steels on
Saturday evening. Butch ScanIon OF
the Steels paid the boys a compliment
by saying that the Owls had one Of the
best teams he has ever seen. And this
is going some for Butch" ought to
know.
And further more. the Owls are prac-
ticing nightly. If you were one OF the
privileged ones to see them practice
on Monday evening you would have seen
a number Of things that would open
your eyes TO the possibilities Of the
local team. New plays were devised
and the way the men fell into them
gave promise that the ]. A. c. with all
their record and with all OF the train
ing and expense spent on them will
have to 60 and go mighty good, to b
able TO stop the Owls.
