THOS E Irish are at it again. | £ Last year during the fair Notre Dame grid team was suddenly transformed | into a rip-snorting bunch of ground-gainers who spilled | Northwestern right in the middle of a perfect record, and now the Notre Dame basketball men are spilling teams like Illinois and Purdue in the same manner.

Saturday night the Keogan brigade walked around the South Bend floor, dropped baskets in as if magnetized and let Illinois in on some excellent Hoosier guarding. The score was 41-33. | It was the 12th victory in 15 games for the South Bend boys. Most of the credit for the large margin of victory must go to one John | Moir, who, in the rapid progress of the evening, put eight field goals through the net and casually tossed three free throws for a total of 19 points. However, the Irish had no easy time of it Saturday night. The sensational Louie Boudreau, Illinois’ forward, got his team off to a fast start. The Illini led until 12 minutes had ticked away. Then Moir and Nowak pulled off and the Notre Dame five led, 26-16 at the half. Big Robert Reigels, Illini center, set the Irish back on their haunches early in the second half when he placed four consecutive tosses in the basket. But Irish pluck of Wukovits and Nowak (Irish pluck, did I say?) did the rest and wrapped up the encounter with L | & | |

short field goals.

= o n

o td FIER a few exciting minutes during the second half Saturday night at the Fairview Fieldhouse, Butler crumpled and Central | Normal's Warriors stalked off with another kill, retaining the unusual | title of the only undefeated college net team in the state. Tony Hinkle e's basket men went down, 32-28 before the fast Danville five which featured quick under-the-basket shots noted for | their accuracy. Chet Jaggers looked best for the Hinklemen but it was his floor play and not his shooting that earned him mention. Big Bill Merrill clicked at the pivot position fairly well but Tony had four men in the lineup during the evening who neither scored nor fouled. After Butler had pulled ahead, 18-17 shortly after the second half started, Morris and Englehart led the Danville boys to a 26-21 advantage and although the Bulldogs made it hot for the Normal men for a few minutes near the end, they couldn't get the hall long enough to make it count. ” = = ” ITH Vern Huffman alternating with Babe Hosler at center, Indiana's quintet gave Iowa a 38-34 beating Saturday night before a crowd of 6000 at the Iowa City Fieldhouse. Bill Johnson starred for the Indiana five with 13 points, 10 of which came from field goals. Ken Gunning slipped a bit and counted only seven points during the tilt. An idea of how tight the game was can be gotten from the fact that the score was 19-18, in the Hoosiers’ favor at the end of the first half.
