an hand for the title game. Boyd

try another fielder during the re-!
mainder of the game, but man- j
aged 11 freethrows. Humphrey
had four personals by midway
in the third and they went into I
the stall to protect him.
The Cards fouled frequently in
desperation to get control of the
ball. Three Cards fouled out
Atkinson led 21-11 in the first
and enjoyed a 37-32 advantage at
the half. Larry Tomlinson scor- i
od 25 for SMA; Jim Hendricks
got 13 for Atkinson.

ald Schmaderer and Jerry Tay
lor collected 12 apiece for Stuart.
