'55 Basketball Team Defeats YMCA, 59-53

The Boston Y.M.C.A. put up an unexpectedly hard fight Saturday night at the Blockhouse, but Floyd Wilson's Crimson freshman basketball team led all the way and won, 59 to 53. Showing accurate passing and steady teamwork, the Yardlings had for more poise than the big but rough 'Y' team.

Harry Sachs paced the Crimson attack with 20 points. Guard Roger Bulger sank seven long set shots for 14 points, while forward Paul Shaw had nine and Captain Rollin Perry, eight. Hefty Jack Underland tossed up 24 points for the losers, mainly on tap-ins under the basket.
