To expect them to win the world series is predicting quite a bit, V but they may win a game or two. Coach Orr has developed another 'set of guards to replace Lockwood and Howard, Duker and Ed Mooney being the comers. Lockie hasn't been going so hot lately either on offenae or defense and the use of the other pair has been meeting with iftore and more success. : .

The regular game ended 25 all and then each team scored a gift shot in the first extra period to bring the score to 26 deadlock. And then the action really started. Wally Kreutzer added his fourth basket, Kukie Kinsala his sixth and Locjcy then sneaked in hia only point of the game with a free throw. Ehorn counted the foe's lone score with a free throw on a dual throw. Duker and Ed Mooney started at the guard positions for Orr and Duker counted the first poiiil of the game on Fox's foul, Ehorn made, one on E. i Mooney's two, fouls to'tie it up. Kin- K. OF C.

IPfcis doesn't represent v'a hatred for Wd(>dstock; but the fans are tired of seeing basketball supremacy anchored in the same place year after year. .Hail to the ehampa, they earned their spurs. « Hebron and Woodstock had a thriller on the same night, with a basket with four seconds to go in the "first overtime pulling the game out of j melee, Kinsala, Whiting and Kreutzer Ryari followed before Kreutzer sank one. Ehorn Again put Richmond ! out in, front by three points, but Duker cut. it with a free throw. Sandgren, then Kreutzer, scored to bring the "score to 16-13 at half time. Then McHenry put on a big spurt, their second straight game which found the third, quarter very profitable.

With but eleven seconds to go the ball was jumped at center with Hebron one point ahead, but a onehand hook shot from the wdm changed the whole aspect. Jig saw puzzles may come and go, but that renowned checkerboard puzzle with only fourteen pieces is about the most exasperating one of the bunch. Fact is, more than one fan has declared that he'll have to 3ee it solved before they will believe it can be done. And that goes for me, too, though I'm no puzzle fan. Vogel made the/ only basket for the Richmond lights last Friday night. Just in case you don't know it that Vogel is the youngest brother of Henry Vogel who hailed from Richmond before transferring his affections to Main street. You remember Hank, he's the fellow that slices them out j Henry camp after the game was very counted in rapid succession before Ryan counted on a double foul which involved Howard, now at guard with Mooney. Whiting got the point back on a free throw, but Ehorn scored to bring the score to 20-19 in McHenry *s favor. E. Mooney, Kinsala and Howard then scored successive free throws to increase the lead to 28-19 at the three quarter mark. Sandgren put on a one-man act to score twice from the field "and the score was tied. He then missed two free throws when fouled by Lockie under the basket, but Ryan put Richmond ahead with a field goal. Just before the final gun Kinfeala tied the score and then the overtimes werp played with the very dramatic effect already related. Richmond has a very much improved team this, year, with the veteran crew giving a good account of themselves. The rejoicing in the Mcof bounds on number two in the good old sutnmer time. similar to those occasions when, in days of old, victories were hard earned over Woodstock, Harvard and the Lakers.
