-- a Ra ---------- = TIT IRR OEE ----------, TTT IIT vd 8 March 5, 1927 WINNETKA TALK -- ----- NEW TRIER CAGERS TROUNCE EVANSTON North Shore Heavyweights Add More Laurels to Great String of Wins; Lights Lose Honors were even when the final whistle blew on the cage contests at Beardsley gymnasium in Evanston Fri- day night, February 25. To Evanston went the high side of the score in the lightweight division while the New Trier heavyweights had an easy walk-away on a doubled score in the second of the two tilts. When Coach Duke Child's light string stepped out upon the floor for the first of the two games they walked into as fast and exciting a cage battle as has been waged this year. While the final score dealt out bad news to the tune of 19 to 17, the township bunch carried a wallop in their work throughout and not until after the final gun, could Evanston claim the match. Evanston led off at the outset with a three point lead but at the end of the first quarter the score stood 7 to 3 with New Trier swinging the whip end. The half ended 11 to 6, likewise in the local favor and apparently the boys were off for their second win over Evanston. At the end of the rest period, however, the Wildkits took the floor refreshed and four min- utes after the toss-up had tied the score. A second later a basket by Culver placed Evanston in the lead and a pair more, donated by Mendel- ius, gave the south-downers a point lead, New Trier having annexed a goal of their own in the meantime. In the final minute, New Trier show- ered down two more while Evanston kept ahead by looping the final bas- ket of the game. As the gun cracked both teams were holding the ball after the jump. With the heavies the tale was entire- ly different. New Trier, staging a come-back from their defeat at the hands of Morton on February 19, rang up one field goal and 11 free throws, giving them the long end on a 13 to 7 score by the end of the half. The first quarter turned out to be the only tight period in the game, ending with New Trier in the lead 7 to 6. From then on the local boys tuned in on all five and slid through for a 30 to 15 win. The heavyweights now find them- selves on the last lap before the com- ing district tournament, which will be played at Waukegan the latter part of next week. Providing they can down Deerfield and Waukegan in the meantime, they will enter the tourney as champions of the old Suburban league. Game Summaries Lightweights New Trier Evanston b. f. p. b. f. p.

T'wo Principles LEXANDER GRAHAM BELL discovered an electrical principle upon which a great communications art has been founded. Those who undertook to give practical value to his discovery likewise left to their successors a prin- ciple of service, that has been developed into an intercommunicating system 6f over 17,000,000 telephones. Both of these principles were built upon and de- veloped with the same objective,--that of enabling men to talk one to another easily, conveniently, cheaply. With nation-wide telephone service already an accomplished fact, these principles still continue to act and react upon each other, producing new ideals of service, new goals toward which to strive.
