The gridders started off with a 13-7 defeat of DePauw, and lost a 20-26 thriller to Wooster in the next game. Key players were on the side- lines, however, and the Hornets never did function at full strength the rest of the sea- son. Albion was defeated, 21-7, spoiling the Briton's Homecoming, for Kazoo's only con- ference triumph.

MacKenzie trophy for the most outstanding lineman, and named a second time as All- MIAA center, Earl King, voted to an all-con- ference tackle's berth, and James Nawrot selected as the team's most valuable player. The cross country team finished a surpris- ing second in the conference in its first year under coach Samuel Brown. The Hornets were edged by defending champion Albion, 56-59, in the conference meet, after defeat- ing all but the Britons in dual tests. Captain Fred Winkler led the team, placing fourth in the conference race. Kalamazoo's triumph in basketball was the year's outstanding achievement. The Hornets won the MIAA title with an 8-2 record, and won thirteen of twenty games during the regular season. They also finished second in a January conference tourney. i0 4 Climaxing the cage season was the team's appearance in the National Association of Intercollegiate Basketball tournament at Kansas City, Mo.

Nine new team and individual scoring records were set by the Hornets during the year. Frank Walters, Charlie Stanski and Bill Bos were named to the All-MIAA team, Wal- ters and Stanski for the second time. Walters also won the MlAA's coveted most valuable award for the second straight year. Bos received the Harold S. Garrison Memorial trophy, and Stanski was elected captain for the season.
