'The Alumni, with an imposing array of stars, 'had the game in hand until the last quarter, when the students crept up and tied the score as the final whistle blew. In the overtime period Lourdes won, 20-19. In the third game we met Menom- inee High in their own back-yard and were sent home on the short end of a 25-7 score by a squad of giants. The next game proved still more disas- trous to the Orange. They met Mar- inette High on December 14. Mari- nette was in a winning mood and anxious to show some scoring ability. They sifted through our defense to pile up 28 points to our 9. ln the fifth game, with St. Mary's at Oshkosh, we looked good and seemed favored to put over a win, but we were doomed to disappointment, fortune deciding the game 27-23 in St. Mary's favor. We came north again and took Stephenson High into camp during the holiday vacation on our own floor by 25-16. On Thursday, january 10, St. Peter's of Oshkosh came north and met the locals in a close game 'which was spiced with many thrills. The game was undecided, both sides playing hard ball, although Lourdes led, until the closing seconds when Coach Jensen's iquintette emerged the YUENGER fwinners-the .score being I6-13. POQUETTE On January 30, we were outscored by the tall St. Norbert's squad, who piled up seventeen points to our five. - 0 '1----- 3 4-----1 OL-w.m-J192 91 J OL 1 Q L 5 5 L --1-, -lNiuefylf

Guay C, l' 5 a K he eam ' 0 1 1 C f Considered as a unified whole, few teams in the past have been as noteworthy as this 1 season's squad. Composed of seven courageous men who would never say 'Adown , they 1 i fought together through thick and thin. They suffered defeat with the true Lourdes spirit L V and carried themselves in victory as honorable men. L, in In basketball, as in all walks of life, every man must make innumerable sacrifices for the ' A 'good of the team. At times the game requires the sacrifice of much personal gloryg this and 1 much more the team and coaches bore without a frown. In fact, in spite of their knocks they 1 x were the cheeriest men in school. Their smiles were not restrained or forcedg they were a , ,N ol spontaneous expression of good will that coincides with true Lourdes harmony. The seven lv men in their work produced an expression of harmony worthy of a W'agner opera.
