them within two points of Spalding, but their man to man defense was ineffective in trying to break up Spalding's stalling game, and con­,se<juently went down to defeat, the final score being 23-18.

The individual performance of Hertges, Fox Va lley center, was the most outstanding. He kept his team in the running continually by getting the tip-off, rebounds from the back­board, and mostly by scoring three baskets and a charity toss. Harding, clever red-headed forward of Spa l­ding. led individual scorers with three baskets and three gra tis shots. Together with his running mate, Brophy, who scored three baskets, they were responsible for fifteen of the Peorians twenty-three points.

In the fourth game of t he first round, St. Teresa of Decatur upset Acquin High of Freeport, 19-12. Teresa started slowly and were be­hind, 7-3, at the half. Acquin pres­ented a well-balanced team at the start of the game and made an irn ­pressive showing the first half. They fo ught hard on offense and their de­fense held Teresa to one field goal.

broke their zone defense by trying tJ cover too large an area. This proved di~astrous because both of their guards left the game on personal fouls in their zealousness of close guarding. Without their service, St. Pat's continued to rally and although St. Joe fought bitterly to regain a lead they were doomed as a victim of over-confidence.

Perseverance brought victory to a hard-fighting St. Mary's five from Moline in their encounter with Routt of Jacksonville. Trailing 9-5 at the half, they fought an uphill battle '0 overcome the lead and finally took the lead to win. They held Routt to two free throws the entire second half while they scored three field t he final score 13-11. goals and two free throws, making'

Routt, playing a slow-breaking of­fense, found the Moliner's zone de­fense impenetrable and every basket they scored was shot from ol1tside the defense.

The effect of hard play during the fll'st half was very noticeable in the second frame. Neither defense was very effective and many long at.­tempts and wild heaves at the basket were evident. Kinly, pivot man for the Kewaneeans, and his teammate, VanRanidonk, did all of their team's scoring the second half. Kinly col­lected two baskets and a free throw, while the latter also scored two baskets and two gratis shots. They were tied for scoring honors with nine points each. The other points was a charity toss made by Blachin­sky in the first suarter.

SECOND HOUND St. Thomas of Rockford won their

way to the semi -finals by taking an overtime tilt from Corpus Christi of Galesburg, 19-17. It was t he first overtime game of the tournament and required two extra periods to determine a winner. In the first overtime period neither team scored and for a large part of the second both teams went scoreless. St. Thomas took the ball off the back­board and started a fast break which ended when Kennedy sank a one­handed shot from outside the foul line just as the gun went off. It was a spectacular finish to a hard, gruel­ing battle.

The score at the first half was tied at nine all. Halberg, stellar pivot man for Corpus Christ, made a ll of the team's points hut one the first half and it was his all-round play that kept them in the running. Kennedy, Hickey, Cavanaugh and Taphorn each contributed a field goal and the later a free throw to account for Rockfo.r(fs nine points the first half.

Galesburg rallied the t1rird quarter and were leading 13-10 before the final period started. The lads from the Furniture City started the last period with grim detennination. They fought like wildcats and while they scored seven pOints, they held the Collegians to four points. Before the final gun a long shot by Hallburg seemed destined for a two pointer but it scooped the basket and bounced out.

Hallburg of Corpus Christi was high point man with four buckets and two free throws. For Rockford Kennedy and Hickey were the of~ fensive stars; both contributed three baskets and the latter a free throw.

Spalding spent little effort in put­ting away St. Teresa in the quarter finals, 35-8. They looked like an un­beatable team and were sure of reaching the finals. Their finished tea m play and superior passing were everything that could be expected from a prep five, although t he Peor­ians looked more like a college ag­gregation.

The boys from Decatur fought They had the do or die spirit and hard, but they didn't have a chance. they certainly lived up to it, and deserve everything that can be said of a team which fights against such odds.

The Tractors held a thi rteen point lead at the intermission, the Score being 17-4. The Spalding coach with­drew his best man, Peters, and sev­eral others to rest for the sem i­fina ls. They returned later in the game to get a final workout.

The fact that they had so little trouble in scoring forbids us to pick an individual star. It was a case

TITANS REGAIN SWlrdMING TITLE

T hree New Records Are Established at Meet

Held in Viator Pool

Illinois Wesleyan stole the show in the a.nnual Little Nineteen swim­ming meet held at the St. Viator pool, Saturday, March 21. The de­fending champions obtained a lead by winning the first event and from then on were never in danger of being overtaken, since they had men quali­fied for each event. The meet was perhaps a little one-sided, Knox be­ing the only team that offered any kind of competition. Only five schools were represented, which is more or less a POOl' representation consider­ing the number of schools in the conference.
