LAST OF LINCOLN AVE. ---- I= New Trier Cagers Defeat Waukegan, Deerfield Squads Last week was one of the most suc- cessful of the season for the New Trier cagers. Beating Waukegan 32-17 and 17-15 and Deerfield 36-14 and 21-16, they extended their season's record to eight for the heavies and nine for the lights. At Deerfield Tuesday the heavies had an easy time, playing the second team for three quarters. The score at the end of the first half was 19-4. when the subs left the floor for the regulars. George (Fink) Pattisson, and Charles (Chicken) Markley led the scoring with four baskets apiece, while Thompson, Harwood and Shel- don each dropped two. Deerfield opened a stalling game with no lead and tried to hold the ball through the game, but New Trier's tricky for- wards were too fast for them. The lightweight game was more ex- citing. Deerfield led for the first two periods, but couldn't cope with the last minute strength the Grey-Green team showed. Liney Smith and George Saxton each came back with four baskets apiece to win in the last quarter. Dickinson was the star for Deerfield, being tied with Liney Smith for high point honors by virtue of four baskets and two free throws. The speed of the battle kept the crowd at a high pitch throughout the game and repaid them for the dullness of the feature game. At Waukegan a capacity crowd of 2,000 was driven hoarse by the two games. In the lightweight contest Waukegan led all during the game on- [ly to lose it in the closing minutes by a score of 17-15. With the score 13-9 against his team, Liney Smith dribbled down the floor for a basket with one minute to play. A foul by Kilponen gave him two free throws which he dropped to bring the score up to a tie 13-13. Thorsen added to the festivi- ties by scoring the winning basket with 20 seconds to go. After being the hero of the game, Smith almost be- came the goat, for he fouled. Scott as the whistle blew and gave the Waukegan Star two shots after time was up. Scott, however, missed both shots preventing the game from go- ing into an overtime period. Bob McLean, last year's star forward, played his first game of the season, making no contribution to his team's score in the period he played. In the heavyweight tilt Wally Mil- ler, New ,6 Trier"s red headed center, dropped six baskets in a last quarter rally. This with one in the first quar- ter brought his total up to fifteen points. The game was fast from the outset, Budrunas, the big Swede, drop- ping five baskets and 3 free throws in one half of the game. Levandusky left the game because of injuries. Waukegan got away to an early lead in the first half, topping the visi- tors 10-7 at the end of the second quarter. The New Trier squad how- ever upheld its reputation as a second half five and came back to win the game 32-17. Art Institute Exhibits Percy B. Eckhart Canvas Percy B. Eckhart of 206 Cumberland avenue, Kenilworth, during his spare time and when he is not attending to his duties as an attorney, devotes his efforts to art. And with such good pur- pose that one of the most recently com- pleted of his canvases is to be dis- played in an exhibition in the Art In- stitute of Chicago in the near future. Mr. Eckhart's painting was made in New England just within a few months and is a landscape. It has been accepted by the jury of the Art Institute and will be hung in the Annual Exhibition by Artists of Chicago and vicinity which opened at the Institute this week.
