In their march toward the myth

they tackled the fast Irving A c., of

g. strange floor and their stars not
in their customary form simply
couldn't get going. This proved
disastrous for the speedy Hammond

and nice teamwork. But 1t is our
contention that the tables will be
turned the next time. for when you
consider the fact that players Of
such caiibre as Mosny. Burrell.
Graham and Gallek could make only
"a basket q piece IN that game. one
can but agree that there was some
thing radically wrong with these
players on that night. When, with
the high school team. It was con-
sidered very poor work If Mosny.
Burreil and Graham made only four
baskets APIECE. so from these facts
a causaI observer can easily sea
that the Orioles were not in the
form by which they massacred the
Gary Friendship House and the J.
+. J., OF Chicago.
AS a result OF their poor work
in this last game. Coach Hays has
outlined a program OF stiff prepa-
ratlons to eliminate the possibility
OF the team again playing in this
poor manner. This defeat. instead
os discouraging them. is more OF
an incentice to show them that they
aren't so good after all, and that
they need a lot more practice.

Has However Uphill
Battle
By LARRY GEORGE.

The fast East Chicago Club ouin-
tet crashed a sensational 81 to IS
win over the redoubtable Gary
Boosters last night at the Mckinley
gym. before wild and rab1d crowd
of equally divided rooters.
Trailing at the half. to 4. and
then Is to 4. the Club boys, led by
the fiery spirit OF Smith. staged
an uphill battle In the last ten
minutes of play. so sensational that
the house fairly went insane with
excitement
Gary was played to a standstill in
that period. Despite their wonder
full defense they were totally un-
able TO cope with the rain OF ringers
East Chicago's whirlwind offense
was netting.
Wichorst. Cant, McShane and
Smith played a veritable tattoo
against the blackboard with phe-
nomenal success. The Boosters
were sorely bewildered by the at
tack. And. as g. result, became
panicky when GOODNESS was abso-
lutely essential
The argument began with Gary
jumping in the lead as though they
intended to swamp the club. eager
after eager was made with surpris-
ing ease.
And their defense was practical
" impregnable. East Chicago had
d tough time breaking thru II.
The half fund the Boosters COM
fortably in the lead with four
point advantage. They dominated
the situation and appeared as
though they would win with ease.
This was further apparent when
they heightened the gap Is to 4 in
the first five minutes of the second
half
Smith then called time out in
order 10 hold a council OF war. He
must have injected the very fire
OF hell into his men because from
then on they were unbeatable. BY
leaps and bounds the club boys
bridged the gap until they finally
overcan1e IL.
At this juncture the big crowd be-
came so excited that they almost
surEed over the floor. And when
wichorst and Icshane finally Gagged
the winning markers Of the fray,
the crowd was understandable. They
let out a primitive war whoop that
could be heard for a block around.
The rassberries followed this
when the large Gary delegation took
the defeat TO heart. After the final
whistle the two elements IN the
grand-stand almost mixed in a
heated battle OF their own.

star of the show. He broke away
from the strong Cary guards time
and time again to sink an almost
Impossible basket. He also proved
to be an invaluable man on defense.
Smith. Cant and McLdne were also
in the scintilating class. They had
little trouble in garnering Their
markets after they got started.
Capt. Martin played his usual de-
pendable game at back guard.
