In perhaps the best played game of the IM season ATO beat out a fighting Minturn “A” basketball squad by a 42 to 40 margin. The scon* itself tells the story of how the contest was played throughout Its entirety. It was fast, rugged and high-scoring. Minturn started the scoring spree with but five seconds played In the initial stanza when Joe Tom sank a lay-in on the end of a fast break. From then on there were no holds barred; whenever Tom. Ray Coley or Pat O’Brien weren't hitting the hoop for the Minturns, Ernie Baldini. Tom Matthews, Ken Torgerson, and Ray Packwood were busy racking up points for the ATO's. At the end of the first half the j score read 21 to 16 in favor of the ; winners, but as the second half got into way the margin see-sawed 1 back and forth until the final re-! suit showed a 36-36 deadlock. Pat O'Brien started the point-1 making in the overtime, potting a two pointer from the key. Joe Tom then duplicated the feat by sink- j ing one from about 20 feet out. ; Then ATO put on the brakes and , sent fleet Ernie Baldlnl in for three quick buckets, and cinched the game. While ATO was putting the skids on Mlntura hall, Delta Tau Delta pulled another clone one out of the fire In-atlng Phi (iuJiima Delta 20 to 27.
