Wrestling Team Coach George Turk Azar's wrestling team had a most success- ful season with five wins and three defeats. Considering the fact that there were only three men left from last year, and the lack of previous experience of the rest of the squad, it may easily be seen that thej record is very good. The team had meets with the Scranton Y. M. H. A., Cornell I. V.'s, Bloomsburg S .T.C., Franklin and Marshall I. V.'s, Gettysburg I. V.'s, and the Wyoming Sem. I. V.'s. The first match with the Y. M. H. A. was won by a score of 29V2-4V2. Captain Longo set a record by pinning his man in 27 seconds. The second match, with Cornell, was lost by a score of 15-23. The meet, however, was closer than the score would in- dicate. The next meet was a return engagement with the Y. M. H. A. and was won by a final score of 30-8. On lanuary 29 there was a home meet with the Blomsburg Vars- ity, which Keystone won by a score of 25-13, following which the team went to Lancaster and was defeated by Franklin and Marshall with the final score being 18-5. The meet with Gettysburg was also a loss for Keystone, although very close. Gettysburg won by a count of 18-14. In a return match with the Bloomsburg Varsity at Bloomsburg, Keystone again triumphed by the previous score of 25-13. ln the final meet of the year Keystone defeated the Wyoming Sem l. V.'s to the tune of 25-ll. The team was coached by Mr. Azar, who was assisted by Mr. Wolfe. The Captain was Maurice Longo, and the manager Sidney Schwartz.

his teammate, Pied Wallace, managed to score on a good percentage of his long shots. The day after the Bucknell game, the cage squad took to the road for a return game with Wyomissing. Despite the early lead enjoyed by the Keystone club, it was de- feated by a score of 51-53, the winning goal being shot in the last five seconds of play. The next game was on February 16, a return game with Venard, played on the op- ponent's court. The game was a rough and tumble affair from start to finish, but the final whistle found Keystone leading by the score of 40-30. The following Saturday night, Key- stone met the Bucknell lunior College team in a return game on the home court. The game was an N.E.P.l. game, and two records were shattered in the evening. Keystone won by the largest score ever recorded for a league game, and Red Wallace set a new scoring record. The final score was 80-41, and Red accounted for 40 of the points tallied by Keystone. The next night, Saturday, February l9, the Keystone team jour- neyed to New York state for a game with the Alfred Frosh. This was the only out of the State invasion of the year, and the Little Giants won by a score of 40-29. Cazenovia Iunior College was the next opponent to be met on the home court, and they were defeated by a score of 74-39. The League standing had been a tie all season with Keystone and the Saint Thomas I. V.'s each having one loss against them.: However, in their next to the last game of the season, the Tommies were defeated by Keystone in a return game played on Keystone's court. The score was 53-43. This placed Keystone in the lead, and the championship was assured when the Tommies were also defeated by the Bucknell Frosh a week later. The last game of the season was the third loss of the season for the Little Giants. The team playedt Seminary on the Kingston court, and lost after a hard struggle by a score of 46-60. However, the Keystone team had a far larger winning percentage than its nearest rival, and so the League title was ours. THE NOKOMIAN OF
