They were John McConnell, John lvlislcell, Jim Orr, l-larry SmiTh, Jim 0'Brien, ArT lvlaThiesen, Arlo lvlueller, Bolo STevenson, Elmer Riber, Clarence Dierks, and Enos Kendall. Recovering Trom a bad TirsT halT, Coach Wallace's Troians recorded Their TirsT vicTory oT The season in Their opening game wiTh l:orresT. The score was 34 To IB, The Trojans never did clicl4 Through The enTire conTesT and TreguenT subsTiTuTions marked The Tray. The Troians challced up Their second vicTory oT The season when They slapped iT To The sTrong Drummer l-ligh oT Gibson CiTy. Playing Tine heads-up basl4eTball Throughoui' The conTesT, The game ended wiTh Dwiqhf on The Top oT a 23 To I8 score. The Troian lighTs also Toolq The preliminary when They won by The score oT 42 To l8. ConTinuing Their brillianT record, The Trojans regisTered Their Third sTraighT vfc' Tory aT Fairbury Decemloer 8 when They came ouT wiTh a 30 To 25 score. OuTsTanding Pirffr' S'i.T I?- in The aTTacl4 were ArT lvlalrhiesen, sophomore cenTer, and Jim O'Brien. The DwighT lighTs also won Their game wiTh Fairbury by a score oT 21 To I5. Paced by ArT MaThiesen and Jim O'Brien, The DwighT Trojans rang up Their TourTh vicTory oT The year when They deTeaTed a sTubborn OTTawa Team. Wifh Their passing wealc and spoTTy, The Trojans goT a bad sTarT in The ball game and as The TirsT Tew min' uTes oT The game elapsed iT seemed as iT They would have To show a decided reversal oT Torm or be deTeaTed. lT was noT unTil Tour Tree Throws in The Tinal quarTer were scored ThaT The Trojans goT a good sTarT on Their road To viCTory. The DwighT lighTs made iT Tour sTraighT wifh a 29 To 26 viCTory over The OTTawa lighTs. The DwighT Trojans dropped To Third place in The BVV race when They suTTered a deTeaT oT 3l To 28 aT The hands oT Les Lindbergs Tive oT l.oclcporT. Playing beTore a Tair-sized crowd, The Trojans sTarTed ouT sTrong and aT The end oT The TirsT period OT warTare were leading by a 5 To 3 score. This lead was shorT-lived, however, Tor Lock- porT wenT inTo a period oT basl4eT shooTing. A Team ThaT jusT couldn'T miss holds a vicTory over The DwighT Trojans by a 42 To 26 score.

Insufficienf experience was aTTribuTed To The defeaf. Braidwood had parTicipaTed in seven games during The holidays while The Trojans were idle. The Trojans capfured Their Third BVV Conference win when They scalped The Ponfiac Indians by a 35-22 score. O'Brien, a Trojan forward, was ouT of baskeTball indeTiniTely because of a sprained ankle he received when he collided wiTh Bob Vicars, Ponfiac guard. Crippled by The loss oT Jim O'Brien, and playing Their Third game in four days, The Trojans wenT down To defeaf To Mazon, 26-I9. The game played aT Mazon was dull, Iisfless, and never Took on The aspecT of a real baffle aTTer The Third quarTer. IT was a superior Team ThaT Turned The Tables on DwighT High Trojans on Their own floor when Lee STrombom's invading Marseilles Panfhers defeaTed The Trojans by a 34-I9 score. Fairbury handed The DwighT Trojans Their Third successive defeaf when They won by a 38-20 score, Fairbury led all The way and The oufcome of The baTTle was never dubious. Lockporf, a newcomer, won The Third Annual Big Vermilion Conference Tourney played in Marseilles when They defeafed The Trojans 27 To 26. Marseilles capfured Third place by downing Ponfiac 38 To I5 in a game ThaT was aT no Time very inTeresTing. The DwighT Trojans downed The LockporT PorTmen here, 34 To 24. Bafiled by a razzle-dazzle aTTack +ha+ never quiT funcfioning, The PorTmen were never in The Thick cf The game. Time and Time again Arf MaThiesen, DwighT cenTer, puT on sparkling exhibifions of speed and abiliTy in breaking up passes. The Trojans had an easy Time disposing of The Cornell baskefeers aT Cornell and came home aT The Top end of a 34 To 20 score. DwighT had everyThing Their own way ThroughouT The game and could have doubled The score had They seT Their minds To iT. Red Delockery's long shoT in The IasT Three seconds of play gave Coach Bob Zim- merman's Morris Redskins a 25 To 24 vicTory over Coach Wallace's Trojans. Bearing down now The Trojans added To Their presTige when They noTched up Their second vicTory of The year over Bob McKay's OTTawa Pirafes by a 29 To 24 score. IT was The Tiffh BVV vicTory as compared To four losses. The IighTweighTs won over The OTTawa ponies 33 To I6. Alfhough failing To hiT Their sfride unTiI Thesfhird period was well under way, The Trojans ran over The Gardner-SouTh WilmingTon preps. The D. T. H. S. Team finished up one of The mosT peculiar seasons iT had ever ex- perienced when They defeaTed Abe MarTin's Ponfiac Indians by a 36 To 22 score. DwighT came Through The Regional TournamenT wiTh flying colors. They won TirsT place, beaTing Odell, Chenoa, and Fairbury. Fairbury and DwighT played in The finals, and DwighT won in a Thrilling game by a score of 3I To 20. Eligible because They had won The DwighT Regional Tournamenf, The Trojans did The unprecedenTed Thing in The JolieT Secfional Tourname-nT by adminisTering a harsh drubbing To Gilman's Maroons and Thus winning Their firsT secfional conTesT in The his- Tory of The school by a 45 To 2I counT. Never before had a DwighT high school Team succeeded in winning a secTional TilT, alfhough They had come close To iT on Two pre- vious occasions. This made Them eligible for The semi-finals in which They were ouT- classed by Jolief I-Iigh School, losing by a score of 47 To 25. This game broughf an end To a very successful baskefball season in which DwighT gained a considerable amounT of presTige in The sporTs world. E. J.
