take the finals in 1948 from Yale,
9-0, and placing third in 1947 and

tion with the sharpness of his
team on the eve of its departure
for the Eastern competition.

proved upon their last few rounds,
and this improvement should be
of great help to us. Our weak put
ting has been definitely improved,
but you have to get the breaks.
“Everyone - has to be ‘on.’ This
kind of tournament play requires
a lot of concentration in clrder to
win.”
