By NO.R.I\1 llROWN

After Saturday night's basketbnll game, our conviction lhat Tech men w.er.e .good sports has been rudely shattered. Certainly no llOOrer exh1b ation of bad taste and unsportsmanlike conduct could have been demonstrated than at tha t game with Assumption College. We all feel at times that a referee's decision is unj ust, bul such resentment should not manifest itself in the fo rm of loud jeers a nd calAdan1M~ calls. A referee, like the baseball umpire, calls the fouls or rules infractions as he sees them, to the best of his ability. There is no point in ridiculing or vociferously denouncing his decisions. No lntlr..trinl .~upplie• amount of yelling will cause him to reverse those decisions, and only Di•tribtdor• ill-mannered and ill-bred people would think of booing as did quite llurdwarc>, Tool~, P uint. a few T ech students at Saturday's game.

The booing wus not only direc ted at the re fe ree~. but at the Fin•l'lucc Furnl11h ingll oppo nents a..'l well. At one point the booing became so intense tha t I !)..1..156 Ma in Stre«~l the referee had to interrupt the game and announce lo the audience W orrelltC'r, Maee. that he wouJd allow the man ul the foul line to shoot unlit he made the shot if the booing did not cE>asc. Even then , after having b<'cn warned by the official, there were some very ill-mannered student r-----------==-===----. who hic;sed and booed as the player atte.mpted the fo ul shot .

We have no doubt tha t every man was rooting for Tech to win especially s ince they had been beaten by this StLme Assumptio~ team last Thursday evening in a March of Dinws basketball game.

Enthusiasm was very high, no doubt, for a Tech victory, but I{UCh enthus iasm should be confined to cheering and hea rty applause , not to jeering nnd booing. Certainly we would be c ritical H a T ech Ex p4'rl tnilo r1 tmd ('/e(lner• man were to be booed o n a fo reign court, so why should we do St-: E Rm:tm W'iE it here ? uch t onduct a t Saturday's game cannot b(' condoned, and At ' our Frutf'nlh1 it is hoJ)ed that at future games T ech men will again reg:1in their sense of fnir play and re frain from jeering und booinA the opponents, 11 1 IIIC III.t\ NO ST .
