Burmaster, main speaker at the banquet, said that the fact that his champicnship team was a com¬ patible unit of White and Negroe he thought helped to quiet a degree of racial unrest in Evanston.
Burmaster, a native of Elgin, had a fine record as a basketball player at Elgin High School, and said that he had many "happy memories of times spent in HunUey," in his. high school days. He said that ho did not consider himself in " a lea¬ gue with Jesse Owens" a one-time spnakcr at the Huntley banq^iet, and that he did not have a definite theme to his speech. It became iv.dent as he spoke of his own temn, however, that he did have a theme: that de¬ sire and determination to defeat personal handicaps was the key to, auccesvSful competition.
Burmaster said that the Evans¬ ton team was "unmistakeably the most talented" team in Illinois this year. But that it took more to be champions, it required <'the desire to win." He said that he thought Ctmtinned on Page Nine
