Bosse Winner Os State Cage Title Saturday Evansville Bosse won the Indiana State high school basketball championship Saturday at Indianapolis by defeating Washington of East Chicago, $4 to 81. Bosse advanced to the final game by defeating Madison in the first game of the afternoon, 79-75. Washington downed Kokomo in the second game of the afternoon, 74-73. Both games of the afternoon were real thrillers, with the lead changing hands *many times and the outcome of each game in doubt until the final buzzer sounded. In the championship game Washington moved ahead to an 8 point lead at the half, 44-36. In the third, Bosse started to chip away at the lead and with continued good shooting from the field went into the lead in the fourth with 6:16 to go in the game and were never headed from that point, winning the championship, 84-81. Bosse hit an amazing .539 from the field to Washington’s very good .427. Bosse made 34 field goals out of 63 attempts to Washington’s 32 for 75 shots. Thirtyone fouls were called in the game, Washington charged with 15 and making 177 of their free throw attempts. Bosse had 16 personal fouls and made 16 of their 22 free throws. A capacity crowd of 14,943 watched three thrilling ball games that had a record breaking eight point spread in the three games. Bowling Prattle While loafing at the lobby desk of Wawasee Bowl, I noticed that every once in a while Joe Jr., shut his eyes and scringed like he was in pain — I kept watching him, pretty soon he threw the same fit and muttered—for the love of Pete, I wish that man Hare would ease up with that cannonball speed, don’t he know those pins cost money.— I caught on right away that tfie Turf Bar team was giving the pins a real workout. That man Hare delivers the ball ‘with such tremendous speed that it takes out the middles pins and the great swish suction of the ball literally blows the other pins off. ' Sometimes' the speed of the ball is so great that the advanced air pressure pushes the pins off the alley before the ball gets to ’em. What do you mean, you don’t believe me? What’s more after the series is over Mr- Hare takes home an armful of busted pins for stove wood. Joe, you better back me up on the foregoing or folks will think I’m lying. More power to the Turf Bar gang — keep on reaching for that pennant flag. Your Prattle Reporter — Dreamer — REMEMBER .. .
