h y | December 29, 1928 WINNETKA TALK 13 Morton Basketeers Trounce New Trier by Lop-sided Score New Trier's heavyweight basketball team was overwhelmed by Morton, 28 to 4, last Friday, at Cicero, to lose its first suburban league game; but the lights evened things up with a 29 to 24 victory over the, hitherto un- defeated, Maroon and White ponies. Cerny and Lohr stunned the Gray- Green heavies by making baskets for Morton right after the contest started and their team kept the lead all through the one-sided game. The New Trierites put up a great fight, but they couldn't seem to get around the tight Maroon and White defense and their opponents' clever stalling completely gaffled them. The loss of McLain, star forward, whose last report card made him ineligible, made the Gray-Green attack much less effective. Even when they got a chance to bombard the basket the visitors couldn't make any ringers. The Cicero players raced off to a 14 to 2 lead in the first quarter and for the rest of the encounter were able to take their time. New Trier's second team, sent in during the last period by Coach Grater, failed to make Morton pant any more than the vars- ity had. The lightweight battle was a much better game with the score always close and the lead often changing. Fencl gave Morton a good start by sinking the first basket of the game and his teammate, Rubado, gave the home team a 4 to 0 lead. Hart and Captain Saxton each put the ball through the hoop to tie the score, but Morton made a free throw just before the gun and finished the first quarter one point ahead. New Trier turned the tables in the next session and finished it with a Black Silver Fox FURS When this bright look- ing little fellow gets big- ger, he'll take the eye of some one of our many patrons who come direct to our ranch to select their furs by seeing them on the living animal.

Billy Reed started the second half with two ringers for the Gray and Green that gave the visitors a 5 point lead which they held until the first part of the last quarter, when Morton rallied and got on top. After 8 points had been rung up on the home score- board in quick succession, New Trier tightened up and Saxton, Berol and Reed, who had done most of the Gray- Green scoring, made enough more for their team to finish with a 5 point lead.
