Eight Team Loses to U of Chicago By Barry Ancona The Gtinnell basketball team braved icy roads and six hches of snow to play the Maroon: of the University of Chicago last Saturday. The Irowd of close to three hundred theering Chicago fans did not Intimidate the handful of Grin- nell footers, but the 70-511 de- feat did. In the first half, the Pioneers hit 42 per cent from the field, but this percentage was off- set by a 27 per cent free throw mark and numerous instances of traveling and throwing the ball away. The first few minutes of the second half saw Grinnell's 'downfall as Chicago shot un- erringly from close in and out- side to run up a twenty point lead. The Pioneer bench took I turn on the boards and fin- ished the game. Elliott Hibbs and Mike Schwartz, third and fourth in Midwest Conference scoring, managed only 5 and 9 points respectively. Roger Able was high scorer with 10. Others scoring: Tom Hill and Tom Lower, 1 each; Bob Watt and Thor Evanson, 4 each; Steve Brintnall and Jim Stephens, 2 each. The alumni present at the game seemed understanding about Grlnnell’o twenty-first consecutive loss, and one re- marked to Coach Pfitsch, “You can't win them all," Replied the Coach, “You mean we can’t win any.” The cagers travel to Mt, Vernon tomorrow to take on the second place Cornell team that handed them their twen- tieth defeat, 70-69, on January 24 in Darby Gym. Their next home game is Feb. 21 against Monmouth. ’ SWEATERS beautifully drycleaned land finished with \ SCARLET AND BLACK Swim Team Drowns Coo The Pioneer mermen pooled their efforts last Saturday afv ternoon and swam away with a 54—38 victory over Coe.

Having erupted for 13 points in its first team effort, South left little doubt that it will have to be reckoned with, though not necessarily as a basket- ball team. Clark's “B" team set a re- cord of sorts by committing four consecutive technical; in its game against Langan. The technicals had little effect, how- ever, because Sam Carrell’s 28 points led Clark to an easy victory. Langan’s “A” team, with the finesse of a wounded rhinocerous, continues to roll along intimidating lesser one mals‘ Cowles' “A” team presents a diversified appearance. Un- fortunately, diversity is all it offers and the season could be u trying one. One of the most earthshaking games thus far was the Cowles-West “A” game with brought John Lawson and Steve Carroll into head-to—head combat. East appears to be in for a long year after losing half 01 the hall to the Varsity bas- ketball team. Rawson, labor- ing under the stigma of having the shortest players on campus, has found the going rather rocky although its fine-shooting "A” team, led by the “Tree", can cause trouble. West rebuilt its teams after the first LM. game in hopes of achieving balance and thus improving its overall record. Unfortunately this dream has not been ren- lized and West is struggling along at about .500. Smith, North and Dibble, leading the trophy race in that order, find themselves leading the pack in basketball. Smith and North have exceptional “A” teams, While Dibble, tradition- ally lacking respect and pro- priety, stacked both teams. With four men averaging in double figures Dibble appears to be the best of the “B" teams, while Dibble. North, Smith and Langan are fighting it out for “A” team honors.
