CROWN POINT INKLINGS 21 Star Calls C. P. H. S. powerful team. Rensselaer Sports writer gives local gridders credit for great game. The Crown Point High School football team journeyed to Rensse¬ laer and in a fast and well played game with the Jasper County Team won by a score of 20-0. The Rensselaer paper gave the following account of the game: “Crown Point’s powerful high school football squad, Friday after¬ noon, dashed the hopes of the Rens¬ selaer High School team to end the season without defeat. The Lake County team, account¬ ed the best in the Little Seven Con- 1 ference, won 20-0. Star Local gridders defeated by Mor¬ ris, Illinois. One point margin sav¬ es game for invading team. Play¬ ing a superior brand of football, especially in the ground gaining de¬ partment, Crown Point High School’s Pigskin Warriors lost a heart-breaking game to the Morris Illinois, High School last Friday by a score of 7-6. Star Lowell High defeated in grid bat¬ tle. Crown Point High School shows superiority in all depart¬ ments. With their goal never in danger from the battering of a bunch of huskies and hard playing football stars from Lowell, Crown Point High School won the season’s classic between the two teams last Friday afternoon at Brown’s Field by a score of 13-0. Time after time Lowell had its plays and formations smothered be¬ fore getting well started and sever¬ al costly fumbles resulted when the Crown Point forward and backfield men broke Lowell’s defense many times for substantial losses. Not all season has Crown Point put up such a splendid brand of team work in both offensive and defensive play. Although the weather was bitterly cold, with wind and snow detracting from ideal playing conditions, Crown Point players never had a fumble regis¬ tered against them. Crown Point did its scoring in the second and third quarters, and aft¬ erwards, confined itself to a purely defensive style of play to keep the ' visitors scoreless. Register Crown Point High School tri¬ umphs over Valparaiso. In a hotly contested battle, the, local high school eleven trimmed the Valparaiso aggregation 6-0 on their own field last Saturday aft¬ ernoon. It was a beautiful football, day, and a good crowd attended the game. Crown Point’s line held and blocked in great style and the back- field made some marvelous gains. Register Crown Point trims Lowell 13-0. C. P. H. S. closes season on the grid¬ iron with smashing triumph. The Crown Point High School team and officials are being criticiz¬ ed for their game last Friday with Lowell. A football game was held at Brown’s Field and nobody told Lowell about it until they were trimmed to the tune of 13 to 0, at least that was the way the specta¬ tors took it for it was the old red and white that did all the playing. While the fans were thinking about Santa Claus, due to the snow and temperature, Lowell kicked off to Crown Point. Fateh the shifty halfback received the ball, and headed for the north goal. He was tackled after running about ten yards. On the second play Fifield took the ball three yards, on a line smash. Fateh carried the ball up to the line of scrimmage and was brought down. Henderlong drop¬ ped back to kick and sent the ball to Lowell on their forty yard line. .Friday’s game closed this sea¬ son for the Crown Point High School team, that has made a good showing, considering some of the strong teams that they have en¬ countered.

Playing a | desperate game to overcome an 8-0 lead, Crown Point High School football players, after a 50 yard march down the field had their hopes of a victory over Hammond Tech blasted when the referee’s whistle sounded the end of a fast and exciting game with the visitors. Times Wallace triumphs over Crown Point High School. Eleven husky football warriors from the Gary Lew Wallace school triumphed over the Hub School aggregation by a score of 3-0. Henderlong’s punting toe was badly missed from the Crown Point line-up, Fifield who essayed to take the injured man’s place in the ounting role, failed to get the pig¬ skin away for any appreciable gains.

22 CROWN POINT INKLINGS HARDWOOD SPLINTERS Register C. P. H. S. opens B. B. season. Ham¬ mond Tech to play here Wednesday evening. The Crown Point High School opened the 1932-33 basket ball sea¬ son on their own floor last Friday evening with a game with Hills¬ boro. Three practice nights were all that were available before tht game and the boys made a good showing under the tutelage of ‘Pop’ Mahan. Practically the same teams are available this year that played last year. In the opener, R. Collins, D. Harper, and Weinberg played for¬ ward positions, Stonex at center, and Fateh and Madsen were the guards. It was a nip and tuck scrap for both teams, but in the final tally Hillsboro held a three point lead 30 to 27. Saturday night the fans got an¬ other chance to see the teams in action again, when the local fives played the Hebron teams. In this encounter the boys had less opposi¬ tion and triumphed easily by a score of 32 to 13, for the varsity and 14 to 11 by the seconds. Register C. P. H. S. wins fitom Griffith. Overtime period necessary to decide victor. The Crown Point High School five showed their spirit and color Satur¬ day evening when they defeated the Griffith High School Team by a score of 24 to 23. It was a nip and tuck battle from the opening whis¬ tle to the final overtime signal. At the half, Griffith lead 9 to 8, both teams came back strong, and fast plays were made by both sides, but neither took a very great lead. At the end of the regular period the score was 22 to 22. Crown Point tipped in a basket from the field and Griffith took a free throw and the score remained that way until the end of the three minute over time period. The seconds lost a hard battle to the Griffith seconds by a score of 16 to 24. Griffith had the edge on the locals throughout the struggle and easily triumphed. Bulletin Saturday evening Crown Point journeyed to Griffith and came home on the long end of a 26-21 score. The game was a hard fought battle from the start to the final whistle. The half ended with the score of 15-12 in favor of the locals and at no time during the whole game was the Hub City quintet in trailing position. The second team lost a tough game to the Griffith “B” team by a score of 13-12. Bulletin Crown Point High School success¬ fully defeated the Merrillvillle quin¬ tet last evening at the latter’s home court, to the tune of 42-17. The locals were leading at the half by an 18-6 margin. Bulletin The Hub City cagers, making an exceptional display of team work, defeated the strong Chesterton five at the Community Gym by a score of 29-27. The game was one of the most brilliantly fought encounters of the season, neither team holding an appreciable lead during any part of the fray. Bulletin The Bulletin reporter attended the Crown Point-Kankakee bas¬ ket ball game last night at Kan¬ kakee. and was very much impress¬ ed by the exhibition of “Pop” Ma¬ han’s crew. Team work by every member of the squad, along with their execu¬ tion of new plays and a good de¬ fense constituted a fine working machine. Although the Hub cag¬ ers lost by a score of 30-24, the boys of the local squad are to be com¬ plimented for their work as Tarn- men, the Kankakee Ace, scored 16 points in the first half, but was held to 4 points in the final period. This year one finds discipline on the local squad and “Pop” Mahan should be complimented for this. His coaching technique caused Tammen to be held to 4 points in the last half.
