Wingate by a bit Of clever work

Near the end Pierce was awarded

1t seemed the score would be tied.
But the Pierce booter muffed.
It was the fifth game of the
series. The first contest was an
extra-period scoreless tie; Monroe
won the second, the third was
1-to-1 extra period deadlock; the
fourth another extra-period scoreless
tie and Monroe yesterday won the
fifth. It was perhaps the closest

TRIMS
TECH; WESTERN

Eastern, Western, Technical and
Central pried off the lid in the
inter-high school championship
basketball series with a twin bill
at the Coliseum, yesterday after
noon. AS had been expected, East
ern triumphed over Tech and Cen
trail bowed before the superior speed
and basket-shooting of Western.
Eastern, although returned the
winner over Tech, 26 to 10, did not
win with the comparative ease with
which she had been expected, while
Western after being outplayed for
the first few minutes never left
the issue with Central in doubt.
The Western-Central clash which
wound up with the low count of
II to in favor Of the Rock Creek
lads, was featured by the excellent
five-man defense of the winners.
Central registered but two baskets
from scrimmage, while Western
made but four.
Ralph Bennie, Coach Guyon's
sensational rookie forward, prac-
tically proved the deciding factor
in Eastern's victory over Technical.
Bennie looped four through the
basket from the field and in four
attempts from the 15-foot line put
all four in the basket for points.
The Western Central game, while
fast, was featured by there being
only fourteen fouls called during
the entire play, while Eastern and
Technical threw discretion to the
winds in the final quarter and at
the end of the contest had compiled
a total of forty-three fouls between
them.

able to sign up both heavies for to-

This is easily the best show
Washington has ever had" said
Freeman today. Joe Stecher's rep
utation is too well known to be re-
cited over again. Everybody knows
him and his body scissors. Not so
many have seen him use it, though.
They get their opportunity tonight.
"Gardini was good enough for

brought him his triumph. The Ger

minutes before the Nebraskan
clamped his body scissors, coupled
with bar hammerlock. Down went
his shoulders to the mat. The Sec
ond fall also went to Stecher, whose
body scissors and wrist lock tossed
the Teuton in ten minutes.
Gardini, weighing 1876 pounds,
gave away twenty-five pounds to his
Greek opponent, but the first fall
went to the Italian in eleven minutes
when, putting on a deadlock, he
tossed Abrimidos over his head.
Gardini's' speciality is headlocks,
and he won the second fall in seven
