Six of the eight Redwood Falls
High school basketball players who
attained fourth position at the state
tournament, the highest honor ever
won by local team, completed their
careers in the Cardinal uniforms Sat-
urday night at the Minneapolis audi
torium.
Jim Inglis, Irwin Smith, Dale By
ram, Palmer Kise-all regulars-and
Wallace Lauterbach and Albert Cor
bett are the six of the eight at the
tourney who will be lost through
graduation.
Still suffering from an attack of
WIDTHS, the team was defeated by
Moorhead Saturday night "a to Is
when a victory would have meant
third place. Redwood Falls earned a
place in the semi-fnals by upsetting
South High of Minneapolis in the
first round "a to 16 but was eliminate
ed by Mechanic Arts of st. Paul 81
II Friday night.
Chisholm won first honors but it
was forced to play its best ball and
needed every basket to subdue q
fighting Mechanic. Arts five which
proved it was the most under rated
of the eight tourney entrants before
losing % to 81. South of Minneapo-
lis beat Winona 80 to 81 to take fifth
place.
The Moorhead- Redwood game was
closer than the score indicates for
Redwood held the lead good part of
the time and was ahead II to 10 just
before the Spudders started their
scoring rush, accounting for many of
their points from. long range. =
On the all-state team, picked by Of
ficials and sports writer's, were the
Burich brothers Of Chisholm, Peter
at forward and Gordon at guard;
Lowell Sullivan Of Mechanic Arts at
center, Buzz Gray Of Cass Lake at
forward and Woodrow Olson of Man.

was awarded the sportsmanship tro-
ply.
Lose to Mechanics
An moderated Mechanic Arts bask-
etball team-underrated because Of its
poor showing against Mankato Thurs
day night-came through Friday
night to win over Redwood Falls 81
to II in the semi-finals.
After a poor exhibition of basket
ball the first half, the Cardinals, al
though tired from their hard game
against South High the night before,
staged a gallant recovery the final
two periods but not gallant enough
to cope with the brand of basketball
displayed by the Trainers from st.
Paul.
The team fell into the short end of
the count early in the game and was
behind most of the way. A IL to
lead did not cause the Redwood spec
tators any great dismay as many
times during the season the team
was behind that far only to come
back strong the second half to walk
away with the game.
Outstanding was the work of Low
ell Sullivan, Trainer center who not
only scored seven points but held Jim
Inglis, Redwood's prime scoring
threat during the first two Journeys,
to the same number.
In the Redwood Mechanics Arts
game, Palmer Kise, unheralded all
season, played his usual steady game
and worked effectively on the de-
tense. His running mate, Buz Smith,
captain, was handicapped with three
personal fouls.
Upset South 24-16
A Redwood Falls team which work.
ed with decision succeeded in COM
pletely upsetting the forecast Of the
dopesters when it triumphed over the
much touted South High team of
Minneapolis in the first round of the
state tournament Thursday evening
by score of "a to Is.
The Redwood team played much Of
the second half without the services
of Jim Inglis, sensation of the re-
gional tournament who was released
from service two minutes before the
third quarter ended because Of four
personals.
Much Of Redwood's great victory
must be credited to the sensational
free throw shooting of the team as a
whole. The members made IA out Of
16 attempts to give them more than
half of their total score,
Ralph Tenney who has received not
enough attention during the regular
season came through with flying coll
ors Thursday and received half of the
high point honors tying with Inglis
with seven points each. He made
three field goals and q foul shot and
Inglis made one field goal and five out
