Play Sunday
as Wderdogs

Given only a slim chance OF
gaining their second victory OF
the week and the season in their
game with st. Fred's of Pontiac
tomorrow, st. Mary's cagers held
light workout this morning in
preparation for the clash. The
game, in st. Mary's gym, will
start at $50.
The strong Pontiac outfit
trounced the locals, 1878, in the
first meeting of the two schools
and the Mountaineers are given
little chance of overcoming their
opponents to gain revenge. First
victory for the local parochials
came on Wednesday when they
whipped st. Francis de Sales in
Detroit, 17-9.
Only three games, with St.
James, St. Rita's and st. AL
phonsus, remains for the Noun
taineers after tonight. With only
one victory to their ere dit t.,
Coach Lee Harris crew is in the
cellar position of the Catholic
Leagues second division west
side.
Starting lineup for st. Mary's
is expected to be: GUARDS, Ken
Vernier and Capt. Jim Petitpren;
forwards, Lloyd Dubay and
Fred Fox; center, Palmer Hud-
son.

quarter as he and Bill Shaw,

Back in stride after a pair of
close wins, New Ravens unde-

game, 1929.
The Foundrymen led 1915 at
the end of the third quarter, but
were slightly outscored in the
final period. Jay Bull, star GEN.
ter who has been out with an
ankle injury, was back in the

The New Haven seconds con-

gave Armada its chance how

| SURE ON TlF-OFF
The game started fast with
the Bathers scoring on a tip-off
play, Ken Strassburg hitting a
short shot after a nice pass from
Bob White. After the lead had
changed hands three times, the
Bathers pushed ahead, holding
a III margin at the end of the
first quarter.
Came the big second period
and the city high outfit could
not miss. Ralph Siewert pushed
one in from the side, Lyle Bliss
dropped a pair Of long shots, a
fast break netted a trio of bas-
kets and Strassburg and White
both CO n CT d with short
buckets for the 16 points, mean
while, limiting their opponents to
five.
OVER CONFIDENT
Over-confident as the second
half began. the Bathers stood
gaping as Forrie Naveaux and
Vic Pratt led brilliant rally
for Monroe. Caught fiat footed
time after time, the Bathers
watched the Trojans pour by for
baskets. With the score 27-22,
Siewert finally hit for the Bath
ers, on a free throw but Pratt
marked a field goal on a one
handed push shot to make the
score 1924. From there on in,
the game wasta mad scramble
for the ball and baskets with
frequent fouls marring the game.
With the score $3.50, Strass-
burg took a set shot, missed and
then followed up from the left
side to give the Bathers q three
point lead, cut to two immedi-
ately by Courrey's free throw.
Fifty seconds left to play, the
Bathers swung into gear for the
first and. only time in the Sec
ond half to score a pair of quick
buckets. On fast break, Heinie
Mordan sucked defensive play
err in and whipped a pass to
Bliss who scored on a one-hand-
er from the side, making the
score 1881. A few seconds later.
Bob Bentley fouled Mordan on
chase for a free ball and the
Bathers took possession out of
bounds instead Of shooting.
Siewert took a pass and laced
the ball to Mordan, who took
lazy underhanded shot from the
side a shot which joggled into
to clinch the tilt.
Throughout the first half, the
entire team played good ball,
but during most of the last two
periods they looked like the
quintet that lost their last three
games. Ken Strassburg and Lyle
Bliss shared scoring honors with
a lanky Trojan forward, Vic
Pratt, all collecting 10 points.
