Won Championship Last Year.
Winning yesterday's game gives the
Dells their second consecutive cham
pionship of the fraternity basketball
tournament. Last year the Phi Delts
battled the Delts in the finals with tho
Delts coining out on top. The majority
of the 1920 championship Delt team
graduated to the Varsity this year. The
uldition of Holland and Schafers to
tho Delt team this year gave them
unlimited matedial. Both of these
men were all state performers on last
year's championship Lincoln high
team.
The A. T. O. team was composed of
mostly veteran players with Miller, a
freslunan, the only new addition. The
A. T. O. men played their best gams
of tho tournament against the Delta
and were picked as a winner a num
ber of different times throughout the
