STYLUS guard, from further participation in basket' ball at Harding. Nevertheless, the boys carf ried on in excellent style, and in the second Central game the quintet captured the city championship by a 30f14 score, thus estabf lishing, up to that time, Harding's supremacy over Central in two of the major sports of 1928. Another season's victory in baseball will make the major victories complete. Perhaps one of the most outstanding events in the 1928 season was the barnstorming tour on February 17 and 18. The squad travelled to New London and on the after' noon of the 17th engaged the strong Chap' man Tech. team. After decisively defeating them, the Harding quintet tackled the Ston' ington High group, another strong combinaf tion, and again were victorious. The next day the boys were entertained by Rogers High of Newport, R. I., last year's New Eng' land champions, and succeeded in defeating them a hardffought contest. To furnish a fitting climax for the season, the Harding quintet fought its way to the Enals in the Yale Interscholastic Tournaf ment. In the irst game Harding encountered Meriden, one of the favorites, and defeated them by the score of 29f14, the most decisive victory in the tourney. The second contest, played with Hillhouse, was adjudged one of the most exciting and spectacular ever played between two high school teams in the Yale gymnasium. With Hillhouse leading almost all the time, the Harding boys by 'a superb effort managed to tie the score in the last few seconds of play. In the overtime period Captain Eddie McPadden secured the ball and with deadly accuracy dropped it into a basket from the center of the floor, thereby giving Harding a twofpoint lead. Despite all their efforts, Hillhouse could gain only one more point, and at the last whistle it was Harding's game. In the final contest with Bristol, Harding spirit not overcoming the fatigue brought about by the afternoon game with Hillhouse, the team succumbed to defeat at the hands of last year's champions. After the game the finalists were given a banquetg the Bristol players were presented with gold basketballs, while the Harding boys received silver ones. Manny Klein gained the distinc- tion of being the leading player of the tour' ney, while Captain McPadden was complif mented on the fine way in which he conductf ed his teamfmates. The team next year is to be led by joint captains, Elliot Graham and Manny Klein. Both hold optimistic views in regard to next year's prospects.
