De Paw Steps Out for
Win Over Big Ten Five;
Northwestern Is Victim

GREENCASTLE, Ind, Dec. 23.-De
PAW defeated Northwestern at basket
ball here last night, 81 to 10, in the
closest game the Tiger quintet has
played this season. The five-man de-
Tense used by the visitors interfered with
the Old Gold scoring machine
Each team opened its scoring with a
foul throw, and for time the count was
very close. Soon, however, the Tiger
basket shooters broke through the
Northwestern defense and gained a sub
stantial lead which they maintained
throughout the remainder of the game.
Captain Mendenhall and Cannon were
the only De PAW men who scored in
the first half. They only made two field
goals each during this period. Captain
Mckenzie and Saunders Gagged the mark
ers for Northwestern in the first half.
They only scored one field goal each in
the period, however. At the rest period
the count was II to for De PAW.
In the second period, De PAW scored
10 points to 10 amaSsed by the Purple
squad. Captain Mendenhall and Cannon
were the high point makers for the
Tigers while Captain Mckenzie rang up
the most counters for the visitors. Nc
Kenzie was taken from the court in the
second half because of personal fouls.
On Dec. 80 De PAW will meet Purdue
here in the second game of the Tiger
holiday season. 1t is predicted that this
Will be one Of the best games played
during the season. Then on Jan. the
De PAW quintet will meet the rival
team from Wabash on the local court.
Games between these two schools are
always among the classics of the season.
