The Lynx placed fourth in the lntercity League and were in a position to move into first place until the final week of play. This year's club was another one of A.L.'s typical fast break outfits. Paced by the front line trio of Dick Dunlop, Dick Hen- RST derson, and Ray Waters, A.L.'s offensive rolled up an average of fifty-five points per game. The guards, -lohn Kates and Dick Crowl, were known for their demon rebounding as well as flashing, con- sistent scoring ability. The Lynx started the season on the right foot, winning their first three games by overwhelming Mo. Valley -18-40, Treynor 48-36, and Clenwood 51-42. The Abraham Lincoln five were then stopped by a strong Crin- nell team, 55-43, but bounced back to trip l.S.D., 60-55. The next week A.L. opened their intercity season with a sour note, losing to Creighton Prep, 5I-35. They then traveled to Mapleton, where they lost to a fast crew by a score of 59-5l. However, the Hilltoppers then started off their winning streak by defeating a good Omaha Central crew, 42-36. Next victim for the Crimson and Blue was their crosstown rival, T.j., blasted by a score of 60-40. ln the following game the Lynx edged a star-studded Alumni five, 69-67, in an overtime period. An upset came when a strong Boys Town crew fell before the Lynx, 51-24. Their next outing was l.S.D., who became the fifth straight conquest of the Lynx by a score of o-1-40.
