Tense considerably. although Ser
geant' Owens played a creditable
game.
The Maroons on the other hand
were greatly strengthened with the
return of Harry Mehre, who led his
team mates in floor work and in
passing. His dribbling was of tho
highest order and was a problem
which the losers could not solve. He
made two difficult baskets and a free
throw. Trafton did the heavy scor-
ing for the victors, making six field
goals. many of which were Gagged
from the center of the floor.

game. The former South Bend high
school athlete Gagged two baskets.

the pair of baskets made. The first

in a close one on a long pass from
Mehre. ScOfield missed a free throw
on a foul called on Wynne. Martin

Tense. made a close basket. Ed. An
