TILT GOES IN RECORD BOOKS AS 67-67 TIE

“\\V rillM. C AN HAPPEN WHEN DEPArW \MI \\ \B\SH MEET" As ha.-s be^Ti said many time in the pa.st. "anything’ can happen when DePauw and Wabash tangl* in an athletic contest,” ami this situation held true .Saturday mght in Bowman gym. The Tigers, r aking their home deb.it of the 1954-55 basketball season, left the floor thinking they had nos-d out the IJttle Cliants in a battle royal by the score of 67 to 66. However, it developed that unofficial srnrei had credited John Thrapp, of Wauasii, with a free throw while DePauw was leading, l.'» to 11. The official scorers failed to give him tn<; first free throw point while in the process of entering a DePauw substitution in their books Thrupp’s second attempt was n^it good and the Count should have been, 15-12 in fawn** of'the OH

advantage at halftime as result | of a rally that put them out in , front of the Tigers who led from | thre. to five, points during the earlier part of the opening half. Play was hard and fast during the second half. The struggle was so intense that Jay Crittenden, star Wabash forward; Jo. D< hner and Sam Ulmer, DePauw forward and center respectively, left the game via the personal

foul route.

It was nip-and-tuck during tlv j closing minutes with never more than three or four points sepor- !

, ating the two teams.

Ron McCammack, Tiger veteran and former Stilesville flash, who had been unusuAlly “cold" the first half, spearheaded the DePauw attack in the second half and it was his one-handed basket that proved the tie-mak-

ing shot.

Ofliciatly, the score .should have read 67-66, DePauw. It was Thrapp again who was fouled as the battle was practically over. He dropped in his first chance from the charity sttipe but his

Two new opponents and the first ninegame schedule in 33 >ears highlight DePauw’s 1955 1 football activity, announced to1 day by Athletic Director James C. Loveless. The ’55 slate will feature a resumption of gridiron competition with Butler, one of DePauw's oldest rivals, and the addition of L’eloit, a brand-new foe. With the Bengals booked for their second football season in the Indiana College Conference, the return of Butler to the schedule gives DePauw a full sixgame ICC slate. Although the DePauw-Butler series opened in 1890. there have been no games since 1947. The Tigers and Beloit have met in basketball but never on the grid-

iron.

Repeaters from the 1954 card include the five other ICC entries Evansville, St. Joseph’s, Ball State, Valparaiso, and Indiana Slate—plus non-league foes Oberlin and Wabash.

So. Mr. Heinsite went up with the ace of spades in dummy. Nothing happened. The king was now a winner and, since the defenders were bound to win the two minor suit aces, the contract was down one. Mr Heinsite turned to Mrs. Fusty in amazement. "I have heard of a lead from the king ar.d two small trumps," he said, “but I never saw a lead from the king doubleton. Surelj' you irmst realize, madam, that if I had held the ace of spades, your lead would have been the only one to let me make my contract." Retains Dignity Mrs. Fusty retained her dignity. "Young man." she replied, “I took my last bridge lesson in 1921. In fact, for many years I have given lessons in whist.

"You might profit by joining one of my part - ner’s classes, Heinsite," he said. “If I remember correctly, you bid clubs in response to Abel’s four no trump bid. That told all wlw cared to listen that you had no aces. So tell me. how could you possibly hold the ace of hearts?” Mr. Heinsite quickly cut the cards.
