At the beginning of the season with a squad depleted of two stars it was rather hard to find the men that would make a winning combination, but Bender looked over his material 'concentrated on a certain few players and kept everlastingly at them and turned them into fine aggressive players; The team alreadY had tour good men two weeks ago and the fifth man, one who had the requisite speed together withshooting abilities was lacking.
