year, the fans had to pick out the
stars just as they cropped out in
the action.
AS the tournament passed into
the second day after eight first
round games Friday, talk shifted to
such names as Butterworth, the
giant pivot man of Bose of Evans
vile, JAM of Michigan City, Boink,
the big back guard, and Osborne, the
midget forward of Bose; Voss, the
sturdy shot of Cicero and some of
the unknowns who had made them
selves noticed by their performances
in the opening games.
1t might be said there was an alb
sence of the outstanding class
among the ball players which left
about twenty-five or thirty of them
as near alike as peas in pod.
This particularly applies to the
center position and it only can be a
personal choice that differentiates
between the quartet, Butterworth
Reder, McAnally and JAM.
ButterWorth had offensive power
as well as defensive, was able tc
move from one end of the floor tc
the other and work highly effective
ly at either end. Reder was a great
basket shot, was a factor in his
