CUMMINGS LANGE The IQ33 Basketball Season EFEAT again made an appearance in the Ram record as a result of the game with the Central College Eagles. In spite of excellent playing on the part ofthe K. C. C. S. team, the Central boys seemed to find the basket a few times too often. Penn College came to Kirksville for a two game series with the Rams. In the iirst game the K. C. C. S. boys showed great form and took Penn into camp. The second gauze of the series however again found the Rams on the short end of a score as the Penn team took revenge. Going to Trenton College the Rams took another beating from a wellfgroomed Trenton team. The K. C. O. S. boys played a good brand of ball but the breaks were against them and so was the score. Revenge is sweet however and when the Trenton team came to Kirksville for a return game the Rams tasted of it. Playing an inspired game the team swept all resistance aside and put the Trenton Pirates down with a jolt. This was the last game of the season and by far the most exciting. Good teamwork brought about a well earned victory. No basketball game would have been complete without Tuffy Taylor and his particular brand of cheer leading. He could always get the best out of the Ram sup' porters. Il .igs - H1233
