HV1 E were talking the other
Wl day to an athlete who
graduated from Butler. He
had been a member of Coach Pages
basketball teams. The former net
player made a remark concerning
Pat which hit the nail ON the head.
He said that Page was a wonder
full judge of men. What better
compliment than that could a
coach receive? That is his job
to judge men.
This basketball player went on
to say that Page sometimes
started different combinations
against different teams. His
players often wondered just why
it was done, but before the
game was over they knew.
Page had sized up the opposi-
ton and had matched their per-
formers with his own men in such
a way as to get the best results.
While on trips Butler played
teams never seen before. But Pat
with uncanny perception classified
the opposing players. He rated
them from observation as they
practiced and made his plans &C
cordingly.
The best example of this was
in the national n. A. U. tourney
at Kansas City, won by Butler,
during the season of'1923-24. In
this meet Butler met all styles
of play in individuals and teams.
Page varied his lineup and plan
of attack and defense to meet the
different situations with remark
able success.
Even rival coaches admit that
Page is smart. And his for
mer player made a bullseye when
he remarked. that Pats greatest as
set was his intuitive judgment of
men.

ninth man to go. Meyer will be

practically the same team made
the trip. Howard and Spaulding
are two new players.

this year because of knowing just
about what it is up against. The
addition of Howard and Spaulding
also has strengthened the squad
considerably

while in the northwest farmers were

with the expectation that the govern

was little pressure in corn and the mar

conditions over the belt with little or
no rain, but temperatures were low and
acting as a hindrance to the maturity
of the crop. Oats averaged slightly

dull, were firm in sympathy with
grains and an upturn in hog values.
