V. M. I. ENJOYED A MOST
 SUCCESSFUL CAGE YEAR
WORKING HARD AT LOCKWOOD PARK FOR COMING SEASON g

Lexington, Va, March 12.-(special) Virginia Military institute closed one of the most successful basketball sea sons in it's history when she defeated Virginia Polytechnic institute in Roanoke last Saturday. Throughout the season the team has played won derful style of ball which is credit to Coach Spruhan. The record made by the team during the past season was 16 games won out of IT played, the only loss being to the University of Pennsylvania, which is not mem Der of the s. A. L. A. A. The Cadets, therefore, have a clean title to the South Atlantic championship, and also a strong claim for the championship of the south, although Virginia Milf tary institute is not in the s. A. I. A. A. since they won over Georgia Tech. 53 to Is.
 The Virginia Military institute team is made up of men who, notwith- standing the fact that they are r>- dividual stars, play for teamwork at all times.
 Captain Leach is undoubtedly the best guard in the South Atlantic di- vision He is whirlwind on the floor, aggressive, fast and an accurate shot at basket. He has scored more than twice as many points as his op posing forward Bunting is the won der forward who shoots equally well with either hand. Because of his previous reputation, he was closely guarded throughout the season. and his remarkable number of points scored is, therefore, not even indica- tive of his real worth. Stuart, guard, is smay. but very fast and aggressive. He has scored more points than his opposing forward which fact speaks for his ability, as goal shooter and also as a guard.
 Summere, the giant center, has out played Parrish in two of the three games between Virginia Military in- stitute and Virginia Polytechnic in stitute. which gives some idea of his ability in basketball Virginia Military institute should land a good per oentage of her men on the al1-South Atlantic teams unless all the dope is wrong.

 BERNIE A FIXTURE
 "Dutch. Bernsen, of course, has the inside track at first base. This vet eran fence buster and field captain of the Barons is not in any danger of losing his job with the Barons for quite while yet.
 Meanwhile Willigrad, Pacific coast youngster. is showing lots of stuff at the initial sack. Willigrad is only q over six feet tall and weighs 195 pounds. He hits a ball without ap parent effort, but with terrific force, and the pellet rides when he connects solidly. Willigrad looks good as d firstbaseman and the Barons will hardly let him escape them if he lives up to the promises which he has shown.
 STEWART IN INFIELD
 Barring first base, it is probable that "Stuffy" Stewart could hold down any infield position with the Barons this year. Whether .'Stuffy" will be used at second, his old stand last year, or whether he will take shortstop and let the other infield candidates de- eide the Keystone job between them. is not yet known. "Stuffy" has worked at both places in practice. showing equal ability at each
 Ralph Croll Harry Berkowitz, Tay- Tor, Moseley, Heilman and Gardner have been looking gooc m the infield.
 It is yet too early to tell who is making the best showing in the infield. but some of the youngsters are show ing some good stuff" these days.
 THE OUTFIELD
 In the outfield several men have been standing out by their excellent work. They are Henry Emery, Doe Silva. Sumpter Clark, Blethen, Kane and Welsh. The first named three seem to have a slight edge on the others. Emery seems every inch ballpioyer. The way he has been5 plucking then, out of the ozone has been pretty to | see.
