Both Tech and Anderson are re-
garded as dark horses in the state
title race.
Anderson, coached by the veteran
Alva Stages, has shown in and out
form throughout the year, winning
from some of the best and losing
to some weaker opponents. Tech
likewise has been inconsistent. Dur
ing the sectional play last weekend
the locals looked very powerful.
They appear as fresh now as they
did at the outset of the season three
months ago.
Tim Campbell, Tech mentor, Is a
smart coach and many believe he
has led the boys through the regu-
lar season with tournament play
entirely in view.
Three weeks ago, Tech handed
the Indians q APPOINT setback on
the local court. That game was not
a true gauge of the two clubs, how
ever, as both coaches used subs and
Anderson played without the serv-
ices of their star forwards, Butler
and Woods. The Indians also have
a great center in Hunt and a clever
floor guard in Crisler. Van Dyke is
considered a clever guard, when 60
