Stubborn Boone Suffers 36th Straight Loss in Narrow MCC Win
Muscatine Community College Indians upset Boone Junior College 81 to 73, breaking a pattern of losses with a second straight win. Ralph Case led MCC with 21 points, Harold Lloyd added 16, and Al Spearman, Bob Leech, Mike Edwards, and Gale Von Behren each scored 19. Boone had four players in double figures but failed to overcome leadership by MCC as free throw shooting remained weak for the hosts.
