Brennan's worth is demonstrated by the manner in which he assisted Krause in whipping together a green Irish team. The third member of the troupe guiding Irish basketball fortunes is a 22-year-old senior Economics major, Jim Conway, of Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Alternating between the center spot and one of the forward posts most of the season, "Bag" proved to be one of the mainstaj'-s on this year's squad.

His work under the baskets was an important factor in the Irish victories this season. Along with teammate Don Strasser, Big Dan hails from Leo High School in Chicago, where he won two monograms in basketball. One of the biggest men on the team, Dan stands 6'4" and weighs in at a healthy 190 pounds. Al­ though he's a junior, Dan has two more years of eligibility left, due to the fact that he did not play last year.

Richard Clancy . • • Another of the fleet-footed sophs on this year's squad, Dick didn't see much action this season, although he did make most of the trips. He comes from Kankakee, 111. He was an outstanding athlete in high school, making a name for himself in all the sports. He captained both the football and the basketball teams in his senior year, making All-State in the latter sport. He was sent to Notre Dame as the best player in the Kankakee area upon graduation from high school and is expected to see a good deal of action on the hardwood next season. Dick is vice-president of the Sophomore class.

Neal Fichtel • • • Neal was one of the top-flight reserves this year and will be out fighting for a stai-ting role next season. Fie is fast and aggressive and his hard driving lay-ups are his trade­ mark. Neal calls Aurora, Illinois, home, attending Marmion Mili­ tary Academy there, where he earned three letters in basketball. Neal's all-out play in the NYU game sparked the Irish to within three points of the leading Violets but time ran out before Notre Dame could go into the lead. Fichtel is a junior in the College of Commerce.

John Foley • • . Completing his fourth year on the Notre Dame varsit}', John turned in many fine games in late season. One of the best liked men on the squad, he is also one of the two married players, the other being Captain O'Shea. He first played for the Irish in 1942 and then put in three years in the Army. John hails from Worcester, Mass., where he won letters in football, baseball and basketball at St. John's High school. He captained the bas­ ketball and baseball teams in his senior year and led the quintet to the New England Catholic high school championship. John was named All-New England center in both his Junior and Senior years.

20 The Scholastic it Mike Jaekels • • • This big sophomore pre-med student hails from the largest city in Wisconsin, Milwaukee, where he attended Marquette High School. Mike played on Marquette's all-confer­ ence championship basketball teams in 1947 and 1948. Jake didn't see too much action this year but is looking forward to more playing time next season, Jake is a rugged lad and should be a great help under the boards, Mike is also a pretty fair high jumper, clearing the bar in the vicinity of six feet. He is 6'5" tall and weighs 200 pounds even.

it Tom Johnson ... A valuable substitute for the past two sea­ sons, Tom is the "Dad" of the team, being the oldest at 25 years. He entered Notre Dame after sei'ving three years in the Army Air Force. While in the service, Tom played basketball for the Maxwell Field, Alabama, quintet. Being an ex-pilotj he was right at home when the squad took to the air for their trip East and kept everyone informed on weather conditions and the like. A senior Sociology major, Tom hails from Chicago where he played for Hirsch High School, winning three letters.

it Leroy Leslie • - • After a great freshman year that promised much, Leroy Leslie lived up to expectations and this season he became one of the highest scoring sophomores in the history of Notre Dame. Combining great speed with a deadly accurate left- handed push shot, Leslie racked up 290 points in his first season. Against Loyola of Chicago in the Notre Dame Fieldhouse, Leslie had his greatest single night as he scored 20 points, most of them in the hectic second half. Leslie was graduated from Johnstown Catholic High School in Pennsylvania where he gained All-City cage honors in 1948. Last year, Leslie was the leading scorer on the freshman squad. Leslie is in the College of Commerce but he is undecided about his major subject.

it Jack Neumoyr ... A product of St. Ignatius High School in San Francisco, Jack was a comparative unknown when he first reported for freshman basketball. However, in the short space of two years, he has captured a starting berth on the varsity and, in addition, is a high jumper on the track team. This season Neumayr knocked in 81 points, proving to be a deft ball handler and a strong man under the boards. In High School Jack won letters in basketball and track and was captain of his school quintet in 1947. Jack is in the College of Arts and Letters but as yet he hasn't chosen his major subject.

Marty O'Connor • • • While playing his second year with the Notre Dame basketball team Marty O'Connor was Coach Ed Krause's sixth man. One of three returning lettermen, Marty was called on to play forward, guard and sometimes even center according to the situation and he had to play them all equally well. A graduate of Kewanee High School in Illinois, O'Connor was well prepared for his position. He won 12 monograms in five | major sports — football, basketball, baseball, golf and track — and he was an All-State basketball selection in his senior year. Marty is a pre-law student in the A.B. school and is majoring in speech.

Don Strasser ... A graduate of Leo High School in Chicago where he gained four monograms in basketball, Don Strasser is another sensational freshman who moved right into a starting - berth on this year's varsity. Strasser, an exceptionally aggressive - and tight defensive man, was paired with Kevin O'Shea at the guard posts. Strasser was often assigned to guard the top of­ fensive threat of an opposing team. Ralph O'Brien of Butler found Don a tough man to lose and the vaunted Bulldog star wound up with a single field goal for his evening's labor. Stras­ ser, however, did not confine himself to defense as his 21-5 points for the season attest. Strasser rarely missed with his long two- handed set or his driving layup.

Hughes Wilcox • . • Tall, rangy Hughes Wilcox is, at 6'6", the tallest member of the Notre Dame basketball team. Hailing from Council Bluffs, Iowa, where he was a basketball and track star, Wilcox played forward on this year's edition of the Notre Dame basketball team. While at Abraham Lincoln High School in Council Bluffs, Hughes won three letters each in basketball and track and in his senior year he was named on the Iowa All-State basketball team. Wilcox, an Economics major in the A.B. school, is most noted for a left-handed fall-away shot that he generally i lets fly from the left corner. Hughes' height makes him very effective under the boards and Coach Ed Krause expects Wilcox to be one of the Irish's main threats next year.

Charles (Bob) Wray • • • Although he did not play basketball for his High School team at Brooklyn Tech in New York, Bob was one of the most experienced of the sophomores on this year's varsity. Bob played for Our Lady of Angels CYO team in Brook- 0-. lyn before coming to Notre Dame and this past summer he com­ peted in a summer resort league which boasted such All-Amer- ican greats as Bob Cousy of Holy Cross and Charley Cooper of Duquesne. A strong rebounder and the possessor of a wicked hook shot which he can throw up with either hand, Wray gave fair warning this season that he will be first in line to take over the pivot post vacated by John Foley's graduation. Bob is study­ ing in the College of Arts and Letters and he expects to major in Political Science.

Trackmen Run in Illinois Tech Relays Tomorrow

ND Division Includes Mosf Big Ten Schools

By TED PRAHINSKI

It's the Illinois Tech Relays for Notre Dame tomorrow night. The Illinois Tech people annually "borrow" the Uni­ versity of Chicago's fieldhouse and put on what is probably the Midwest's big­ gest collegiate meet. Competition is in two main divisions. College and University, and a few high school races are thrown in for kicks. - The University division, Notre Dame's class, includes most of the Big^ Ten schools and a few outside powers such as Kansas State, Missouri and Michigan State. Noti-e Dame has won the meet's team title only once, in 1943, but last year the Irish were second.

In winning their eighth straight match of the season, the Irish encoun­ tered some very unexpected opposition in their toughest meet so far this year. Notre Dame won the foil, 6-3, the sabre, 6-3, and rallied to win the last three epee matches to settle for a 4%-4V^ tie in that division. Despite this rough opposition, Notre Dame's left-handed sabre artist, Bob Bosler, enjoyed one of the best after­ noons of his career, winning all three of his matches. Nick Scalera, Dan Parisi, and Bob Westrick each won two while losing one in the foil. Ralph Dickson paced the Irish in the epee with a two and one count. By virtue of his 2-1 record in the sabre matches, Captain Bob Schlosser boosted his won-lost record to 20-3.
