All Square at 1918
The Blue Devils came through
with a desperate rally in the final
quarter to survive the clash with the
ContinentalS. The Washington
it,
as the windup period began and
were playing a spirited brand of ball
that made the outlook for the North
Siders appear none too bright.
Mcdaniel registered for Short
ridge soon after the last period be-
gan, Shoemaker tailed a free throw
for Washington, then Brown Melted
a pair of charity tossses for the
Blue team and the score was dead
locked, 1918.
Shortridgers Stall 2 Minutes
Dawson dropped in a long-range
attempt to give Shortridge the lead.
The Shortridgers called time out. It
was the fourth such request and
automatically awarded Washington
technical free throw which Capt.
Lasley made. That ended the Wash
1ngton scoring. Dawson hit free
toss for Shortridge, producing the
final 21-19 figures, after which the
Blue Devils elected to stall away the
remaining two minutes of the fray.
Kasnak played brilliant game
at forward for the losing Continent
tails, though he failed to score a goal
from the field. His fiery ball-hawk-
ing had much to do with the teams
"stepped-up" performance. McDan-
lei and Brown were the only Blue
Devil players to find the hoop from
the floor, each collecting three field
goals. Washington led at the half,
1879.
Techmen Pile Up Points
Techs Cannons were impressive
as they continued the scoring spree
they. launched with GIT victory
over Castleton in the morning by
adding 3417 verdict over South
port last night. The Techmen were
too hot" on the hoop all the way
for the tourney-improved Cardinals.
Bonn, who capitalizes on his diminu-
tive build by making himself doubly
elusive, skipped under the basket to
give Tech a two-point lead soon
after the opening horn, and the East
Siders never were headed the rest
of the way. Tech was in front, 8 to 5.
at the quarter; II to 8 at the half.
and 22-15 at the three-periods post.
The individual scoring high for
the tourney was set during the fray
when Fisher, lanky center, contrib
uted II points to the Big Green
total, His record overshadowed a
previous 15-point performance by
Schwomeyer of Manual against New
Bethel.
Schmoll Does It
The Buggmen of Southport thor
oughly earned their game with Tech
when Forward Ollie Schmoll tossed
in a spectacular one-hander as
the final gun popped to give them
their two-point edge over rival Ben
Davis in a first-round morning bat
tie.
The Cards maintained COM
manding advantage throughout
the first three periods, only to have
the fighting Giants rally into a
1922 lead with less than a min
ute to play. Schmoll then set the
stage for his own heroic heave
when he knotted the score with a
free throw after he was fouled by
Dyer.
A close battle for this afternoons
semi-final program was forecast
when Manuals city champion Red
skins peppered the baskets last night
to pile up a 40-to-30 margin over
Warren Central. A high-scoring
duel may result when the South
Siders tackle Tech today.
Gale Forces Battle
Turning back the Warren Central
crew wasn't as easy as the score
sounds, however. The Warrenites,
paced by Gale, jumped into an ga
first quarter lead. Cohn, Manual
center, warmed up in the second
