the caption of an item, which read:
Freight Agent Bowman was wear
ing a broad smile this morning

Some Of the newspaper column
lists have reverted to reading the
Presidents mind and now suggest
that he is undecided what course
he intends to pursue in relation to
the convoy question.
Having no more definite informa-
ton on that subject than the Presi-
dent has disclosed in his regular
press conferences, am still willing
to venture that this particular eX-
ample of telepathy is wrong.

perfectly we'll what he intends to
do. and will do it at the proper
time. That, | know, is the way his
mind works AS to the particular
course, he contemplates, my guess
would be little if any better than
that of the next newspaper mind.
We are aware, of course, that he
has stated that the war supplies
now in transit or due to be shipped
will reach their destination. This
implies a definite program. Prob
ably the reason he has not disclos-
ed this program is that he follows
the Navy regulations, which dis

Eagles Produce
Surprise Victory
on Small Court
Big Stan Kochanski
Responsible For Win
by st. Mary Quintet

The basketball ink which little
st. Mary's of Orchard Lake appar-
emily exerts over Michigan Normal
f|unctioned again Saturday as the
Eagles upset the Hurons, 30.2s, in
the miniature St. Mary's gymna-
stun.
Although Michigan Normal has
always been conceded the honors
of favorite whenever ii has tackled
the Polish quintet, Coach Bruno
Neumann's flashy forces have gen.
orally been pretty tough customers
for the Hurons. And occasionally
the Eagles have produced a surprise
victory OF the same magnitude as
that Saturday.
Big Stan Kochanski, who meas
ures six feet four inches in height,
was responsible for Normal's down
fall. landing the winning field goal
in the pets with just five seconds
left to play. His shot climaxed a
furious ST. Mary's scoring spree in
the final three minutes.
Nearly a minute before Kochan-
ski became the game hero Michigan
Normal had tied the at 2S'2S
on a free throw by Al Greenwood.
That concluded the point-making
until the Eagles giant center
dropped in his well-gaided goal
from the middle Of the floor.
EXpectant of easily annexing
their second win OF the season, the
Hurons took things easy during the
first half. A two-point margin at the
intermission seemed secure enough,
for the Ypsilanti cagers were con
fident they could step up their pace
as the game wore on.
They miscalculated the strength
OF their opponents. however. The
Eagles, who enjoyed the advantage
in playing on their own court, were
not to be shaken. The lead shifted
several times before Michigan Nor
nal began to pull ahead.
In short order the Hurons we're
in front by a 1928 cor Undaunt-
ed, st. Mary's put on a speedy rally
to add five points and once more
gain the upper hand. Then Green
wood knotted the count.
st. Mary's' proficiency from the
free throw line proved to be the
chief factor, for the. Eagles Gagged
eight of the 10 attempts, the Hurons
but two Of ten.
The Eagles managed to hold down
all of the Huron scorers except
Fritz BENEFITS. The Lansing junior
regained his position a Michigan
Normal's leading SHOEMAKER by
dumping five field goals and one
foul toss through the hoop for II
points. Luke Ferbert led st. Mary's
