ranking with the memorable

former candidates for the allimportant prom chairmanship
were declared ineligible.

Local basket ball fans had their
first opportunity to witness the
Frequent Substitutions Mark
Uneven Game With
St. Paul Five
A tired Luther five failed to
give the locals the battle that was
predicted, and went down to defeat, 41 to 13. What might be considered a flashing victory must
be discounted by the fact that the
Minnesotans had played two hard
games on two successive nights
before meeting the locals, and
had nothing left in reserve. In
the last half they could hardly
drag themselves over the hardwood.
Numerous Substitutions
Coach ''Eddie'' Kotal sent in
everyone but the 'managers during the progress of the game, and
they all looked like first team
members.
We can understand
Coach's predicament in selecting
a varsity quintet from this mass
of material. The starting lineup
of Peterson, Chvala, Thompson,
Baker and Alberts functioned remarkably well, but men like
Cashman, Andrae and Gregory
· can't be left off. Central State's
'31- '32 team certainly will have
sufficient reserve strength.

by many coaches. An honorary captain will be
elected at the end of the year.

A St. Norberts team of unknown qua 1 it y will be the

The "B" team should show decided improvement in the next

first squad will give Coach Vrobel more working material and
experienced players.

Uneasy is the head of a football coach, to paraphrase the
old expression. With Little of
Wisconsin resign ·in g, and
Thistlewaite ready for the
bounce any time now, and
Ingwerson of Iowa resigning,
it definitely proves that a
coach has to have a winning
team to hold his job. What
wonder athletes are subsidized
- the coaches have to insure
success.
College Man
Earns Victory
In Ring Scrap
Central State's outstanding batler outfought Johnny Taplin of
Marshfield to take the decision in
one of the preliminaries of the
best fight card presented here
yet. They call him ''Duke'' in
the ring, and teachers call him
Kazmier at school, but the boy
can fight in any language. Duke
has learned to keep his chin off
the other fellow's glove, and has
found out that taking two blows
to putting in one doesn't pay.
Fights For Living
Your scribe happened to be
sitting next to Duke's brother at
the fights, and found that Kazmier is literally fighting his way
through school. Instead of earning his way shoveling hash he
earns it with his fists inside the
roped arena.
We believe that
this is both an unusual and an
original way of procuring an education. Another factor is that
''Duke '' with an abcessed nose

against doctor's orders.
Interesting Bouts
Yes, some other fellows fought
too. Irish Kennedy saved all his
marbles for the last round and
got the nod over Ernie Kath in
the main embroglio
Nate Tillman the Marshfield butcher boy
got ~ll cut up again_ he's a sen~
sitive boy. A cute little blond,
girls, won his fight _ and did he
ever look nice in his chiffon
shorties !
A few interesting sidelights: Art Thompson very
gravely deciding who won
each round; E r n i e Kath
wearing his modernistic bathrobe; the fellows who ogled
Tilbnan's girl and then faded
away when he showed up;
the kids at all the windows·;
the large numbe.T of femmes
present.

Put on your gym togs girls, and

The call for basketeers and tap

learn basketball, reported to the
gym Tuesday and Thursday at
4:00. On Wednesday, approximately forty-four girls practiced tap
