3 '1' H E E P O C H THE TOURNAMENT When the sectional tourney came along the Tiger crew, a production of Coach Phares, was hitting a stride far better than when they opened the season at Upland, November 10. The fundamentals had been drilled to ultimate perfection, and the spirit was running high, along with com- petition, to see who would be the eight men who would represent The Old Maroon and White at Marion. To our satisfaction we drew Matthews, playing them Friday night. The winner of this fracas was to meet Marion fthe highly taunted Taube Terrorsb, who expected to meet a worn out team like they played January 11. But to their surprise, they met a determined bunch of TIGERS- true in name who had gone through the season with flying colors. The Giants had things their own way the first period of the game. The score at the half was 21 to 10 in Marion's favor. The TIGERS, with that never ending fight, came back in the last half and scored 7 points while the so- called Giants scored only 3. The TIGERS never at any time showed signs of giving up, and went down to an honorable defeat, to the score of 24 to 17.

T H E E P O C H UPLAND With the Tiger spirit running at its highest the Tiger crew journeyed to Upland, November 1, to defeat the Highlanders to the tune of 23-21 for the first victory of the season. The Tigers played topnotch ball to assure the fans that they meant to make a record season. SWAYZEE The Tiger band, with a victory to their credit, invaded Swayzee, No- vember 8, to leave with the small end of the score 42-16. The Tigers were hampered by the small gym. The boys played a good brand of ball but could not hit the hoop. ROLL The Roll Rollers, touted to win over the Tigers after their defeat by the Swayzee brigade, invaded Gas City, November 15, as the Tigers' guests. The Tiger crew showed old time form and flash to defeat the strong Roll team, 32-29. NORTH MANCHESTER The Gas City Tigers, with one defeat and two victories, journeyed to North Manchester, and, with the old grim determination, they came back with the long end of the score, 42-32. CLAY TOWNSHIP On December 6, the Clay Township Giants Knot exaggeratingj came to Gas City, only to return with the short end of a 32-33 score. The Tigers were never threatened until the last few seconds of the game. WINDFALL With fate against us on January 13, CFridayJ, the Windfall quintet handed the Tiger crew their second defeat of the season. Outdone in height, the Tigers played a good brand of ball, but bowed to the onrush of the invaders, to the tune of 33-21. GASTON The Tigers backed to the last word were hosts to the strong Gaston quintet November 29. The game was hotly contested and both teams fouled to an excess, but Gas City finally edged out the invaders 13-16, after leading at the half. SPICELAND Fighting their way through a snow storm and snow drifts, the Tigers made their way to Spiceland and handed the Spiceland boys a hot defeat, 64-34. FAIRMOUNT On January 3, the fighting Tigers went down to an honorable defeat at the hands of the Fairmount Quakers, 18-21. The defeat was due to the small playing facilities and a last minute rally.
