Returning after a , bombing expedition of Flsmes, "where he was positive ho brought down two "German airplanes in flames and two other enemy machine of which ho was .jjii'ncertain, he said, he came down between tfflthe- lines where he captured one Oer- man soldier and succeeded in bringing f" t a wounded French officer. Ho made his report of the flight at ie request of tho British officer com andlng the squadron, he said, to "cover him up, ' as ho was liable to court martial for permitting tho.

He scored twenty-two field goals in one game nnd contributed mo-it of tho points tallied by his team. "The other forward position should go to "Kid" McCulIough, of Brown Prep. AVhllo not so good n shot from the floor as some of the other forward, McCulIough more than makes this up by hit great foul shooting. Out of a possible I'll chances he scored 1-0. He also is fast and n fine team worker. . "Center goes to Graves, the l'cnn Fresh star. In addition to being n great shot from the floor, hnving led the local schoolboys with SO two-pmtit-ers, Graves is a fine dribbler nnd out jumped nil his Opponents this seus-on, He should prove to bo n woudciful player in another .senson. "For guard positions I would have 'Whitey' McManus, the mute plajer of P. I. D. This fellow is a great de fensive man, n fine foul tosser and n good shot from the floor. Latighliu, of St. Joseph.
