THE RING- TUM PHI

BASKETBALL RESUME SHOWS GOOD RECORD

(CoaUJIIM4 f.- hire OM)

its losinc streak by winninc a loose· ly played came from Lynchbure Col­Jere, 36 to 22. Followinr this game there was a shake-up in the line-up. Wilson was ahi!ted to forward, and Urmey plaeed at guard.

'l'tyinc out the rejuvenated team for the first time, Captain Wilson and hia teammates outplayed the fast Virrinia Tech machine, and won 43 to 80, i~ a came featured by the playiug of Lane and Spotts. Continuinc this excellent playine, the Generals easily overcame the University of Rlich·

mond, 35 to 20, on January 30. On a four day Western trip, the

Blue and White carers lost two of three ·battles. They were defeated by Kentucky, 44 to 85, and were nosed out by West Vlrcinia in a cloae aame. 40 to 34. They succeeded, however, in defeatinc Mar•hall Colleee, 33 to 21. The feature ~ this trip was the pla;yine of 'Spotts who scored 62 points durinc the three contests.

Carollnu Prove Too Clever. On February 11, the University of

North Carolina, Southern Conference champions fo-e the last three years, proved too clever for the Generals, and took the lonr end of a 48 to 26 ec:ore. Two days later, the Gobbler quint.t of V. P. I. playing at top form defeated Coach Smith's charres on the Tech court, 41 to 24. This was the first baaketb&ll game lost to t he Tecbmt n in four years.

The Blue and White ended the sea· son ftl'Y fittingly by defeatlne Car­son-Newman, and the University of Vircfnla, in two interestina and ex­citina games. The Carson-Newman team. led by Sno~m, giant forward, staged a rally in the last hal! that tied tbe score &nd caused the home team to flcht deapet"&tely !or the vie­tory. Lane and Urmey, however, c:llnched the rame by goals in the last minute.

Vlrlinfa Conquered 46 to 27 Aecompliahinr the unexpected, the

Generals ranr the curtain down on their 1926 season by defeatinr their revered foe, the University of Vir­cinla, 46 to 27, on F ebruary 20. Tbe entire team played a stellar came, and displayed passinr and shootinr far supuior to the wol'k of the Cav­aliers.

This game marked the close of the eolleciate blf!ketball career of the two star forwards of Washinrton and Lee't~ quintet, Captain Wjl!lon and "Rudy" Lane.
