The loop artist who played football and who were given several days respite after the close of the football season comprise the nucelus around which the Libertyville heavy-- weight team will be built this year. High up on the I'st of valuable candi-- dates for the team who performed for the mardon and white last year are,. Tegen, a center of ability; Grimes, sensational football quarter back who plays equally well at guard or forward, and -- Litchfield and Thomas who filled the guard posi-- tions last year in creditable. style. These men, all well known to the populace of L4bertyville because of their performance on the orange and black 1928 conferance football team, are heavy and rangy and will show up well when Libertyville gets going in the race for the basketball cham-- pionship this winter. All are »ro-- ducts of last years team and with their build, speed and exper'ence mixed with team work should form a formable barrier for the other teams of the conference in their race for the championship. . Libertyville fin'shed fourth among eight teams last winter in the Con-- ference ° playing. A --better team should be produced this year because of the enthusiasm aroused by the successful football season and be-- cause of the added experience gained by four or five of the ° most out-- standing -- candidates. . Libertyville will not have the easy time winning the basketball championship whic} marked their winning of the football title. During the football season the orange and black played several hard games and are enttled to much credit for winning them but in a few other gamesnmey walked away from their opporents for easy wins.
