NO SUPER STAR WITH LEADERS 8 = 2

WILDCATS RELY UPON BALANCE

IN ORTHWESTERN'S basketball squad,.leaders in the Big Ten race, provides striking proof that an individ- ¢ ual star is not essential to team success. ... A study of the Conference scoring column reveals that Jake Nagode, the Wildcats’ leading scorer, is down in the list with 55 points. . « . Other members of the starting five are even further away; as follows: Jean Smith, 53 points; Fred Trenkle, 36 points; Ad Vancé and Bernard Davis, 23 points. Mike McMichael, versatile veteran, was injured early - in the season and lost out in the race for points, but in recent games his work as a substitute has been a factor in putting the Cats over in the close ones. : A Instead of relying upon any single player to carry the scoring burden, the Western Conference pacemakers have stressed all-around team balance. . . . The experience + . has been that if one or another of the starting five has an _ _ off night, a teammate usually comes through with a scor- | ing spurt.

2 = » # tJ #” THIS reliance upon team balance is an important part of Coach Dutch Lonborg’s technique. . . .. Lonborg never did adopt the fast break, slambang offense, which attained its greatest vogue this year with the elimination of the center jump. . . . The Wildcats continued to play a short pass offense built upon a series of plays to work the ball in for close-up shots. Just how much the loss of Bernard Davis, regular “guard, will upset this balance remains to be seen. . .. He was one of the best ball handlers on the team. . . . The Cats got by without his assistance last Saturday when Bob Voigts filled in at the guard post and tallied’ four points against Wisconsin. . . . Jim Currie, a letterman, also will be available after he leaves the hospital list.

DE genius is another reason for Northwestern’s success. . . . A close squeak is their dish as the statistics testify, 233 points scored to 218 for opponents in séven games, a margin of 15. points over all, and one battle was lost, with Purdue doing the upsett The game average is 33 2-7 to 31 1-7. . .. The Cats’ next game ‘with ‘ Indiana at Evanston Saturday. ; Every Big Ten team goes to the post again Saturday and the other games call for Purdue at Wisconsin, Minnesota at Michgian, Ohio State- at Illinois and Chicago at Iowa. . In clashes last month, Indiana lost an overtime struggle to Northwestern and the Boilermakers trounced the Badgers on a surge in the second half. ; Purdue gets a second crack at Northwestern on March 5 at Evanston and the attraction is sold out.

HIO STATE has taken over the darkhorse role in the Big Ten and is a definite threat in spite of three defeats. . The Bucks’ remaining games are with Illinois, Purdue, Northwestern and Chicago. ¥ . They hold triumphs over the Illini, Boilermakers and Maroons and lost by one point to the Wildcats at Evanston.

- CHICAGO, Feb. 15 (U. P).-— Michigair booted its chance to overtake the leaders in the Big Ten basketball race and championship interest centered today on two weekend games involving Northwestern and Purdue. : Latest favorite to skid out of reach of the lead, Michigan lest to Iowa, 38 to 30. Another significant defeat last night was Chicago's 33d straight Conference setback administered by Wisconsin, 46 to 32. . Northwestern’s league ‘leaders wiil seek their seventh victory in eight games, against Indiana, Purdue travels to Wisconsin, Minnesota plays at Michigan, Ohio State meets Illinois at Champaign and Chicago goes to Iowa in the five Saturday night contests. Towa’s expert rebounding whipped Michigan. Controlling the ball off both backboards, Iowa took its time in setting up scoring plays, most of which had Ben Stephens on the scoring. end. Stephens popped in six field goals and three free throws for his 15 points. The Hawkeyes even controlled the ball during numerous furious scrimmages on the floor. Trailing at half time, 16 to 11, Michigan came back in the second period and pulled even, then one point ahead at 22 to 21 on consecutive field goals by Manny Slavin, Leo Beebe, Herjnan Fishman and Johnny Townsend. Jowa, however, called on Stephens and Jack Drees who scored seven points between them in two minutes while Michigan was being held to eight points ihe last 10 minutes of play. Townsend,

all-Conference for-

ward, and center in his two previous |

seasons, scored 15 points on four baskets and seven free throws. It was Michigan's third defeat in seven games and the fourth victory in eight for Iowa. Chicago’s 33d defeat was expected, but Wisconsin was unable to put on the finishing touches until the second half. As usual, the Maroons hung on desperately throughout the first period which ended with Wisconsin ahead, 18 to 12. Early in the second period, Hod Powell and Manny Frey led a sud-

| den Wisconsin barrage that finally

stretched the lead to 15 points. The Badgers then began to hit consistently and only three long field goals in the last two minutes by Morris Rossin, Chicago guard, kept them from running away with the game. Rossin led the Maroons with 12 points. The standings: Team Ww. Northwestern .... 6 Purdue .... Ohio State

"Here's an excitin moment under the Butler base at the Fieldhouse as Notre ler clash in their 30th meeting. on

Butler Five

£

By Notre Dame, 45-22

By TOM KENNEDY ) The opinion practically was unanimous today that in removing those red light baskets Tony Hinkle had fallen short of solving the difficulties besetting his Butler basket tossers.

The theory had been, according

to those professing to know, that

the boys had mistaken the red lights for §top signals,

And now that the Notre Dame® avalanche has passed on, the boys are saying that what really Tony intended to do was to substitute green lights for the red ones. He may get around to it yet, having tried about everything else, ‘as the followers of the Blue and White are well aware. , A few short weeks ago when Butler was toppling such sturdy|m opposition as Michigan, Pittsburgh and Boston U., the prospect of a clash between the Bulldogs -and|B Notre Dame was something to contemplate. Shortly after the first of the year, however, the local boys went

into a nose dive and despite Hinkle’s | g

heroic efforts have yet to get straightened around. And so ample warning was had that Butler for some strange reason had degenerated into just another ball club and it was apparent that the encounter with Notre Dame would be just another ball game. It proved to be just that. Despite this gloomy outlook, however, some 6000 of the faithful were on hand'at the fieldhouse last night for no other purpose apparently than to get a peak at Mr. George F'. Keogan’s streamlined 1938 aggregation of basket tossers. The boys lived up to advance notices and proceeded to do the expected by defeating the Bulldogs, 45 to 22. One got the impression that \ they could have showed even greater superiority if they had been so minded.

Moir Plays Briefly

Keogan turned loose 18 men on Hinkle’s charges as Notre Dame controlled the game from start to finish, using a fast break in combination with a smooth-passing at‘tack. Butler used 13 men, making a total of 31 who saw action. Only a brief glimpse was obtained of Johnhy Moir, famed All-America star of the South Benders, but this | was sufficient to show that while the Niagara Falls boy may have slipped from his high degree of perfection of last year he’s still quite capable of big league basketball. Paul Nowak, Notre Dame’s other All-America star, demonstrated his adeptness at flicking the ball to goal-bound teammates, getting little opposition from the much smaller Butler men. Tommy Wukovits led the- Irish

e free throw throw at-

averaged 697 from line with 11 of 16 1 tempts. Butler obtained only 39 shots at the hoop, scoring seven of these for a .179 mark and getting 8 of 13 attempted frée tosses to average 615 in that department. The summary: Notre Dame (45) Butler (22) -

How to keep his team in top condition is the average Hoosier coach’s problem today, with most of the state’s major prep fives facing little or no activity this week.

Perhaps the outftanding tilt Priday will bring together South Side of Ft. Wayne and Bedford at Bedford in a test of intersectional strength. Both teams rank high in most pretourney rankings and their battle will do much to settle Ye question of northern or 'southe Indiana supremacy. Another team will come out of the north, Whifing’s Oilers coming all the way from Lake Michigan to meet Sullivan’s Arrows. Following the Arrow contest, the Oilers will move to Vincennes to mix with the Alices on Saturday. In the North Central Conference, Marion is the league’s last hope to keep Muncie from an undisputed championship. The Giants entertain Muncie’s Bearcats Saturday with a good chance of coming. out ‘ghead. The Bearcats were hard pressed to take a two-point victory from Coach Orville Hookei’s team '| when Marion visited Muncie several weeks ago. Johnny Boyd and Bud Prewitt lead the hjgh-scoring Columbus Bulldogs into Seymour Friday for a game between two of southern Indiana’s best fives. It should be a case of lots- of Bulldogs scoring against great Seymour accuracy from the field with Seymour rating a slight edge because the Owls have a defense and the Dogs have not. Saturday’s headline jamboree will be staged on the banks of the Ohio with Bedford's Stonecutters in Jeffersonville, intent on hacking ‘a bigger position in state prep circles by cracking the Red Devil machine.
