SOUTH BEND, Ind, Feb. r.
Notre Dame basket teams, with a
string Of thirty victories and but two
defeats the past two seasons, are
piIing up a record which threatens
to equal that set by Irish grid ma
chimes.
Since the start of the 1856
season the Irish have encountered
but one team able to outplay and
outscore them-Franklin College.
Last year the Franklinites, although
defeated in a return game later in
the season, slipped over 1922 win,
keeping the Irish from finishing
their year indicated.
AS matters stood at the end of the
1926 season the Irish record stood
nineteen victories and one defeat in
a schedule which included Wabash.
Franklin, Northwestern, Illinois,
Minnesota and Iowa.
This. season the Irish have amassed
record of eleven victories
and one defeat-another Frank
lin triumph-and tonight they
hope to avenge their defeat when
they meet the Franklinites in a re-
turn game here.
