it slashed its way to an overwhelm-

Slicers.
The local team, keyed up to a high
pitch by the occasion, got off to a
slow start. warmed UP gradually and
at the end flashed through the La
Porte defense with amazing speed.
Too Much Speed
Weakness of La Porte on defen-
sive tactics made it rather hard to
get an accurate line on the offensive
power of the Berries. The Steers
We're unable to present enough speed
to match the local lads and were

The average guard will have the
tendency, which is a perfectly nor
NAL one, of letting eyes follow the
ball at least momentarily. He is
just a little bit curious. so he takes
his eyes off the man he is responsible
for and gets interested in the ball
as it is passed.
Even though the duration of this
lapse on the part of the guard is very
short, it gives the clever offensive
player the opportunity .he is look
ing for, so. he starts out at top speed
either into an open space or toward
the basket.
The result is that before the guard
