and even I'm this close game did
not jeopardize his position. -.
That speaks well. When you
can substitute TN q close game
and not have the pattern fold
up entirely, you have some nice
reserves. And what Is more
important to q coach, You got
the lads under your thumb.
Nobody playing just because
there's nobody to take his
berth. Turn In the goods or
warm a smooth spot on the
bench is the order of the day.
This game resolved itself into a
scoring duel between Conkey and
this boy lanyard. lanyard in
the first quarter was streaking
through the defensive to score
three buckets, and then his lease
ran out. Kringen trailed him
to the teeth and he didn't break
through. Kringen pointed out a
little angle on the jersey number %,
and bemoaned the fact that his
men always wore that number. i. :.
Lanyard wore it Friday, Odegard
wore it for Tech with glory, Kleb-
er used to wear it for Melrose. :.
All dangerous scoring men; all in
the little number %. Kringen
thinks there oughta be law. :.
Conkey, easily sailed into high
scoring position for the evening
when he took four buckets. Two
he took in rapid succession, at the
games opening and two he took at
games end put the lads into the
last minute race. Had Pang-
burn developed his scoring PROV
ess little earlier Friday, it might
have been different, but those are
post mortems. :.
Now blooms on the schedule
the Minneapolis South High
school game scheduled for to-
morrow evening, Friday. For
the first time a Minneapolis
team will play on the local
court. If the lads don't get
big cityities il oughta be right
smart ball game. really think
these lads can give the Mill City
kids a tussle they won't soon
fOrget-if they will. But
one never knows. This Sank
Centre team is a long way from
its stride yet. Where Mime
apOlis South stacks I can't say.
There's one thing to re-
member that South probably
isn't a darn bit bigger school
than Tech, and Tech had no
business running up a defeat as
they did. >.
And the game ends, too, the pre-
Holiday schedule after meeting six
cams. Now the lads can sail into
he last, long half of the schedule. |
The projected North Dakota trip
3 definitely off. Tentatively sched-
lied for weekend Of January 6 and
;, the games with Wahpeton and
former hangout Of Coach
Toftness, have faded from the ros-
er. Toftness was anxious for
lis boys to have this trip, but COM
'lications arose when Wahpeton
filed it's schedule with someone
Use, and one game isn't enuf to
the trip. -.
Boy, the patter sails idly around
N the loose when the lads take a
rip. The boys flip the CUFF
round so fast your correspondent

Those high school guys got more

Comeback Trail?-
Free Throws Off-Color-
Toftness is Happier
Cuff is Hot
North Dakota Trip OFF,
Danger at the Lake
Well, the boys hit first motel
in the comeback trail Friday night
They didn't win; but they didn'
look the demoralized squad of boy
that played against Tech either. :.
They were the best team on tn,
floor, but first half letdown al
lowed Benson to snatch a scan
lead the boys couldn't overcom,
Immediately. 80. A revamped squad
for Toftness played a pretty gooc
performance on that floor Friday
evening, but a Benson jinx still
dogs Sank Centre teams. :.
This Benson ink we speak of
SO blithely is really not just a
DOGGY man. LOoldt the rec
ord. In three out Of four
years, Benson defeated the loo
ais by one point. In 1897 when
the locals gave up the ghost
by a score of 10 TO IL, the free
throw bracket counted for plen-
ty. And I want you to watch
what that free throw column
has done for Sank Centre
against Benson. In 1887 the
lads missed 10 free throws, lost
the game by 8 points. You
begin to get the idea. 1885,
FL to 20 was the score, Benson
again on the hair-length long
end. That year the lads missed
IL free throws. In 1885 we
have similar tale to relate.
Is to IL was the score, Benson
again, and that year they pared
the free throws missed to Z. go.
Friday, it was the same old ding
dong battle. Eight field goals
each, with Sank Centre non-op-
portunists missing scoring chances.
:. But converting only 8 out of
IA free throws. There's this
much about those free throws. If
a team can play good enough ball
80 its opponents can have their cuts
unhampered at the basket, that
team deserves to win. Providing
the free throws can be made. :.
so percent is not too much to ex-
pect from high school competition.
Benson did it with four out of 8,
which is every last free throw they
could wheedle out of Sank Centres
clean defensive. But 8 out of
IA isn't so hot. . It's usually the
case that the team over-anxious, the
team that doesn't play as good ball
fouls most. Witness the Sank
Centre-Tech game, when Sank Gen.
ire fouled a dozen times. True,
st. Cloud fouied equally as much,
but their fouling would, I'd say,
arise from the ragged play Of the
locals and not their own. But
Benson was clearly over-anxious.
And as such deserved to lose.
80
Toftness looked a little hap
pier Friday night. His gang
played q fair brand Of ball. -,
! Even II they couldn't outscore
Benson. But that old brgaboo
shooting is going to dog their
footsteps for long, it appears.
:. TOftness believes he has
a team that potentially is
powerhouse. Friday he used
several combinations, substitute
ed far over the Benson coach,

Circulation Increases Sharp
ly In July, Monthly Re-
port Reveals

An increase of $500 in the approp-

granted by the Vance Board of Com
missioners on condition that arrange

main open in the forenoon during the
winter season it was announced to-

librarian, in connection with the an

Miss McDearman retires at the end of

to assume direction of library there

library.
