PREPS DEFEAT VARSITY.

In the most exciting basket ball game
ever played in Boulder the Props de-
feated the Varsity Saturday by score
Of I, to 9, each team making three goals
from the field. bit the Preps made four
points on fouls while the Varsity made
bu, three. The quick work Of the Prep
forwards. A. Pate and Bell. and the ex.
cellent work OF the guards, f. Pate and
Pendall, together with the support Of
the good old Prep school" we're the chief
causes OF the high school victory. BY
vim ng this game the Preps claim the
championship Of the state. The Props
showed marked improvement over their
previous work. but the change was not
sufficient TO defeat the Varsity team
which they met in their former game.
OF late. however, the Varsity men have
been somewhat over confident. and they
certainly underrated the spirit and
energy of the men they played against
on Saturday night. A good deal of hard
work is necessary to put the team where
it ought to be, and Saturdays defeat
oueh ht to put the men on their mettle.
The weak spots in the team work are
very apparent and two weeks Of good
practice may stamp out the listlessness
that has been shown of late. As this de.
feat gives the Varsity and Prep teams a
victory apiece, it is hoped that Mr Gar.
wood can arrange date to play of the
tie.
