Maine's Cagers Whip Both Glenbrook South, North
Maine West's varsity cagers thoroughly enjoyed themselves when they victimized both Glenbrook North and South in last weekend's doubleheader.

South's Titans fell 67-59 in a game which Maine dominated most of the time. The Warriors held a slim lead throughout the first two periods and had a 28-27 advantage at the half. Although Glenbrook caught up and occasionally took over a narrow lead the third quarter, Maine bounced back in the last period and were still building their score when the game ended.

Harry Tistle '68 was by far the most outstanding scorer of the game. He sank 11 baskets and eight free throws for a total of 30 points.

In the previous game Friday night, Glenbrook North was beaten 46-40. The scoring pattern was somewhat similar to the game against South; in that West held a slim lead until the end of the first half, which ended with the teams at a 20-20 deadlock.
 The third quarter was a seesaw battle, but Maine again came back in the fourth period while they held the Spartans from scoring until the last minute and a half of the game. Bruce Kaechele '68 was leading scorer with 18 points.

Maine lost an earlier game to New Trier West by a score of 78-51 at a time when three starters were out. Although the Cowboys dominated the game, Kaechele was again high scorer with 25 points.

The netmen also fell to Niles North 68-47. The Vikings, currently sharing first place with Maine South, were never in serious trouble during the game.

The J.V. beat Glenbrook South 52-49 and Glenbrook North 67-64 in overtime. They lost to New Trier 72-59 and Niles 53-51.
