throw-up Tuck knocked the ball and the
game was on. Fierce, quick work char
acterized the first few minutes of play,
in which Yale fouled twice. Two baskets
thrown by Holden did not count, how
ever, as the Minnesota men were not in
position The third attempt was success
full, and Minnesota scored first. The gal
lery broke loose. A field goal of Holden's
brought more cheering. Two more fouls
were made the most of by Holden, and
then Weymouth threw the first field bas-
ket for the blue. Another field goal by
Holden and one by Tuck, together with
another place throw by the former ended
Minnesotas scoring in the first half In
the same time Yale got the benefit Of two
fouls through the efforts of Cotton. This
left the scores at the end of the half, Min
nesota, 10; Yale, 8.
,a- Second Half.
In the second half Hall went in at for
ward, replacing Weymouth of Yale. Tuck
soon secured goal, and Holden followed
with two more, when the presence Of Hall
began to make Itself felt in the blues
ranks By sudden sprint and a long
throw, Hall got the first basket. Inspired
by his work, Yale got into the game and
startled the rooters by assisting Hall to
get two more goals. Meanwhile Cotton
got a goal and two points on fouls Things
were getting interesting and the Yale
gallery was roofing like old-time foot
ballists when Tuck came to the rescue of
the home team with a goal after some
long one and Minnesota had the game
cinched; but one minute being left to play.
A fancy throw. by Ireland after long
race for the spheroid wound things up as
time was called, making the final score,
Minnesota, 80; Yale, %. 81 '."

Cooke, when asked for an opinion before
the game. "They will give US good
fight, but our team work will tell-We
are bound to come out ahead-the boys
are playing good ball" elf,

are not ashamed to own it,, were the

game last night. "Of course we were
somewhat handicapped by the slippery
are free to admit that you have good
team. In some ways I think Wisconsin
plays better ball, but her team work is
not so good, and that is where you people
win OUT - ....-,">
you're right there, LOCKWOOD" spoke
up one of the other players, only / WOULD
put it little stronger and say that Min

ever went up against. Our long trip nee

our showing. But you people certainly

such strict enforcement Of the rules"
