Creston's Revenge Creston's win not -only kept Coach Bill Chambers' crew in the state lournamcnt race, but con- fctituted sweet settlement for two defeats suffered at the hands of "Doc" Yatcs' Trojans during the season. Creston, all In all. has had a queer season. The a opened their conference campaign back in December with a convincing 33-23 victory over Shenandoah. It a n- doahans recovered from that initial shock and went on to share the league title with Atlantic, while Creston gradually filtered down through the standings, finally hitting rock bottom.

The Panthers started the tournament grind by conquering a Rood Lenox club, -10-22 at Creston to win sectional honors. Still enjoying the home court advantages, Crcston marched through Its district tests, spilling Mt. Ayr, then conquering Winterset. after the latter crew had provided the big surprise of that tourney by nipping Shenandoah. And now the Creston lads, representing a school which produced a state champion not too many years ago, are within one game of a trip to Iowa City next week.
