via the personal foul route
Lundeen, right forward for II
Lutherans, was the only member Z
the Augie quintet who could On
the basket at all, and had he n

guards have held a candle to Ry.
holm and Johnson. Johnson is I
tall, rangy husky who takes I'd
ball off the board every time, o.
only once did man pass him n
a short shot during the trip. RE-I
holm. playing running guard, haI
proven equally efficient at his posi-
ton. This is his first wear at guar.
bit he is rapidly developing into
real PLAYER, and before the seas07
is over should be well in line loi
a berth on the conference five.
Aronson. covering the pivot p751
ton for Augie. was high individual
scorer for his team, getting - has
kets. He is a deadly shot at ne
basket, and plays the floor equally
well. Lundeen and RosenkralLI
