Anderson High Net Team Looms as One of Strongest Title Contenders

RED MID GREEN FI Flaw CLASSY GAME Gym Is Jammed to See Marion Team Smothered Under Score of 53 to 23. • By VEDDER GARD ANDBRSONT, Ind., Jan. 11.—At

Anderson the first thing they give the baby to play with is a basket-ball. It's a basket-ball town running over with enthusiasm for the great net sport. Every year a great Anderson high school team steps out on the floor and challenges the world —which means Indiana in the hardwood pastime. This season is no exception and Coach Staggs is molding what seems to be one of the greatest prep fives in this State. Anderson demonstrated very clearly "Wednesday night in its contest with Marion that it is a team that must be considered very seriously by any of the State fives that have a hunch they are going to be crowned champs some of these days as the March winds blow. Marion went homertVednesday on the small end of a 63 to 23 score. Gym Packed The Anderson gym was packed tight for the tilt. There was no ques tion but the "home boys" completely out-played their opponents. Their superiority was marked at the very start of the contest and continued through out. The first half ended 21 to S. Patterson, Marion center, stood out like a lighthouse in a storm with seven fold goals and five fouls for 19 out of the 23 points. Anderson played its usual game, setting a terrific pace from the jump. It is a. smashing offensive and Captain Robinson is an ideal leader for such an attack. He cuts in under the basket like a streak. Stone at floor guard !s of a rugged type and is used to get the tip-off to a great extent. His steadiness makes him extremely valuable. He has a nice eye for the net with shots from around the foul line. With players charging at him he shoots calmly, never taking his eyes from the loop. Shettle at back guard is a forward made over. He has plenty of weight and seems to use his head. He can come down the floor in tight games for much needed points. Genda is an other tall, rangy forward with plenty of fight. Beatty who took Robinson's place In the second half showed a burst of speed and a decisive punch.

Team Ixoks Good Os course, it is early in the season and Staggs may shift this line up about, but the team that played agkinst Marion was plenty good enough to take care of itself in this fast and furious basket-ball center of the universe. If there is any weakness it may be at back guard. Also with the style of play used a smooth, deliberate, slow passing game might stop the dashing offensive of the Staggmen. Line-up and summary: Anderson (53). Marion *23).
