A Slight Upset
And then there was Columbus,

But speaking about record smash

Manual Makes Nine Points
Shortridge Drops Close One,

Shortridge and Manual high
schools started out their at-home
schedules Friday night with losses.
Shortridge dropped game to Elwood,
% to 81, and Manual went down be-
fore Greencastle, 20 to 8.
The Shortridge game was a thriller
and was won in the final minutes by
the visitors, who put on a sensational
squirt. Claybaugh, a substitute, and
Virgil tossed in baskets at the last
minute to snatch the fray away from
the locals, who had led throughout.
Hickman was the high point man for
Shortridge with three field goals and
one foul. Spaulding played a strong
game at floor guard. Virgil starred
for Elwood.
Manual had that peculiar malady
that affects the eyes and makes a
basket seem about four times smaller
than it really is, thus making it almost
impossible TO get any baskets. The
first half ended to 3 in favor of
Greencastle.
Shortridge plays at Valley Mills to-
night.

Taking a sqUint at the perform
ances of the pair at the November
tournament in New York. il seems
justifiable that Cochran should be ia
vored to dethrone the once boy Won
der"
Erratic Frequently
In that meeting, Hoppe didn't look
anything like his old self. His playing
was only fair; he was erratic and
time and again ne missed easy shots.
The fact that Willie lost only one
game, wasn't due so much to his
sellar work as 1t was TO the poor
showing of his opponents.
Cochran, on the other hand, sur
prised his fondest admirers. He took
a fall out of both Hoppe and Schae-
fer. the two favorites.
Beaten by Foreigner
An unlocked for defeat at the hands
of a foreigner was all that prevented
Wslker from walking off with the
championship, then and there.
m. 1t is quite possible, though, that
Wbppe viii regain the same form that
enabled him to whip Schaefer after
Jake had copied his title.
Willie Is an old campaigner, and
in crucial matches seems still pos
sessed of the stuff which permits him
TO surmount the toughest barrier just
when the going is toughest.
