S t. Viator gave Illinois Wesleyan their second setback of the season w h en the Irish defeated t hem 24-22 in t wo overtime periods. It was Viator's second conference victory and a victory which means much in the race for the Little Nineteen fiag s ince the Titans and the Greeti Wave are both strong contenders. Baker's Shot Wins. It was Baker who put the game in the Irish Journal as a wonder-victory when he sank one of his peculiar tosses in the second overtime pe riod wi t h but a few seconds left to play. Romary Ties Score. Puff Romary made possible the decisive shot by Baker when he tie1 the score at t.he end of the r egular playing p eriod with a beautiful long shot. Titans l.mJeash Attack. The Titans made a great comeback in the second half which almost sent the Irish home with an路 other defeat egains t them. Late in the period the Irish led 18-11, but I he re the Weslcyanites turned loose "). r ally that tied the co unt just ~j the game ended. However the only time t hat the Titans led was in the first period wh en they took an early 5-2 lead. The Green Wave ,soon passed this mark to lead 8-5 at the half. Saints Defense \Vlns. It was th e Saints' defense that p layed the important role in the victory. The Titans wer e unable t o penetrate it and thus were confined to long range shooting at which they failed to connect as regularly as did the Irish. Romary was the main factor in this defense consistently breaking up pJays and interceptinr.th e ball. Schwartz Stars.
