waterviIle, Feb. 27-The lambda
Chi Alpha five pushed the Zeta Psi
hoop aggregation into the cellar
position this afternoon in the final
round of the interfraternity basket
ball league at Colby college by de-
feating them 26 to 9 in q rough and
tumble game. The Non fraternity
basketeers also retained their lead
for first honors by defeating the AL
pha five to the tune of "a to 10. Be-
fore the final results of the league
can be announced there are two
games yet to be played which were
cancelled previously. the lambda
Chi Alpha team will have to meet
the Phi Delta Theta aggregation
while the Delta Epsilon and Alpha
Tau Omega teams will battle in the
deciding game of the series. I'm
doubtedly. the Phi Delta Theta team
will defeat the Lambda Chi Alpha
aggregation. Should the Delta Upsi-
lon team win from the Alpha Tau
Omega five, they will be tied for
first place with the Non fraternity
team. However, should the Delta
u team lose, the Non fraternity ag-

ball and was very rough. At the end
of the first period, the score stood
81 in the favor of the Zetes but al
