DERU is taking no more chances
l. than necessary with Joe Diem
hart's Cathedral hoop tossers. Jim
Phillips, Tiger star who hurt leg
in the Washington game, will not
accompany his team to Alexandria
tonight, but will stay at home and
rest to be sure of getting into action
against the Irish tomorrow night.
Coach Loveless secuted the Cathe-
dral-S hortridge tilt in Butler field
house a couple Of weeks ago to get
line on what Dienhart will offer
at Peru.
Walter Bradfute of the Bloom

a breeze-maybe a gale.
And from Shelbyville it's reported
that fan spirit is low regarding the
Tech encounter tomorrow night.
Bravely one scribe down there comes
out to remind the -towners
that Tech was tripped up by New
castle, and that what one team can
do another might be able to ac-
complish.
1T would be worth journeying
l. seventy-five miles tonight to
watch the Hartford City-Wabash
tilt in Hartford City. The Airedales
all season have doomed as one of
the top-notch quintets in the state,
and Wabash goes into the battle
with thirteen straight wins back of
their team
In the Wabash lineup will be
John McNaughton, who has been
batting in around fifteen points a
game all season, and who. against
