Hanchett starts to drive through the I. C. defense. Facing North Park the next Friday, we fell to their tremendous scoring punch 70-41, with the two Johnsons, Lael and Ralph scoring over 45 points for the Vikings. North Shore's Raiders, who went on to win the champion- ship, took the floor against Wheaton. Our Warriors, who had lost earlier to the Winnetka team, got sweet re- venge as they left the court with a sparkling 18 point victory. Kraft led the way with 21 points followed by McCarrell with 15. University High playing its usual stall offense was beat at their own game 44-27, as the Warriors held the ball for as much as four minutes. Wheaton then fell upset victim to the hustling Luther North team losing by four points. Immac- ulate Conception followed getting their second win of the season over the Academy, 61-48. Smith lets fly with a iump shot against Timothy Christian.

In a very exciting game the Warriors lost to Havard 58-54. Wheaton closed the regular season with two easy and unimpressive victories over Elgin Academy 69-41 and Latin 74-40. Getting a bye for our first tourna- ment game Wheaton moved into the quarter finals without any action. The Warriors were then pitted against Walther Lutheran whom they had badly beaten early in the season. An- other easy victory, 63-40, resulted in sending them into the semi-finals against North Shore. Despite I4 points by Duddleston North Shore had a 20 point lead at the half and maintained the lead for a 59-41 final score. In the third place play off game with Christian the big battle was in the fourth quarter which started at a 36- 36 tie. Dan McCarrell's 'I8 points and hard fighting by his teammates was not quite enough as Christian won 52-50. Timothy Christian stands in awe as McCarrell makes another layup.
