C.In the second series, the Redskins came out on top in the first game by a score of 39 to 35 and then dropped the second at 42-23. A five-man defense kept Aggies were able to solve the play the Rediskins had piled up a commanding lead and were able to coast in under the wire for a win.The Farmers came back the second night in a far different mood and ran amuck to shoot baskets from every corner of the floor. The Ute quint was outclassed from start to finish and didn't even have a chance against the spectacular caging of "Flash" Nielsen and his teammates.The Aggies this year were handicapped at the start of the season by a late football season which took the team to the Hawaiian Islands to play the University of Hawaii during the Christmas holidays. Several members of the basketball team were also members of the football squad. Included in this number were Worthington, Smart and Martindale. Although basketball practice went on while the football team was absent, complete, regular training could not go on until these men returned. This necessarily was a great handicap to the team, particularly at f ' the beginning of the season, and prob-ably accounts to a large extent for their mediocre showing early in the season.Captain Glen Worthington has been reelected captain of the team for next year. This selection is warranted for he is a fine leader, and his brilliant playing has twice won him all conference positions.|*fJt#JERRY SMITH ForwardEVERETT LYBBERT Guard |
