1931 BASKETBALL TEAM DOWNS TILTON QUINTET

TEAMWORK OF FIRST YEAR MEN RESULTS IN LARGE SCORE

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Displaying a driving attack, the Freshman basketball team defeated the Tilton Academy by a score of 35-15 in the first game of the season, Saturday afternoon in the Freshman Gymnasium. W. W. Foshay '31 and J. L. Rex '31 had the visiting forwards so well covered that they were unable to score. The teamwork of the first year men was responsible for the large score.

Last week the 1931 quintet was defeated in an informal game with the Cambridge Latin School team, and in this game the two regular forwards were injured. Despite this handicap the new combination of forwards repeatedly broke through the defense of the Tilton team and scored almost at will.

In order to try out all the material Coach A. M. Samborski '25 made several substitutions throughout the entire game. J. L. Rex '31 was the indi- vidual high scorer of the game, with 11 points to his credit.
