AR ITY Exploded Against Southside The Southside game proved to be the most exciting of the season. Western roared on to a devastating 109 - 50 victory, breaking three school records in the process. John Petchel, playing his final home game for Western, broke Western's single game scoring record by chalking up 41 points. The team set a new record for quarterly scores by making a total of 38 points in the fourth quarter. The boys also broke Westernis total score record of 101 points set against Carnegie in 1967. Also playing their final home game were: Chuck Barrickman, Bob Benek, Chuck Kelker, and Ron Misorski. DEFENSIVE BLOCKING by Dave McCreery during the North- western game assisted his teammates in obtaining several rebounds.

He made his last game on Golden Beaver hardwood a memorable one by achieving a final total of4l points against the Southside Rams. 115
