Herbster, who is very strong underneath, as-ist.d the LaVille backcourt men in putting the ball in play and with the preAH leaving the sides open and LaVille utilizing this fact, they consistently mov.-d this fact, floor without much trouble and continu. d their offensive drive. The Falcons managed to stay nt about an eight to 10 point di* advantage until late in the perkxl when two five-point spurts on either side of a pair of free shots by Amor, gave the Lancers a big 60-44 lead going into the final period. Kinney and Herbster did the bulk of the in close work and scoring in this quarter. The Lancers did use their reserves rather freely but when you replace boys over six foot with others just as hig or even larger, not much help was gained. The LaVille roster shows <>nlv three under six while the Fab ons have only three six foot or more. The play progressed one-sided and the Lan.ers built a lead of 24 points at one time before settling on the final score of 78-59.
