Outclassed from the start. the basket ball
team Of the Lincoln Young Mems Chris

team in the association gymnasium here
last night by the overwhelming score Of
"a TO IL. The visiting quintet was not
nearly so strong as the one which repro
scented the Capital City association last
winter, and, opposed as they were to the
strong veteran O~mahans, the strangers
never had a lookin from the first whistle to
the last. The Lincolnites were younger.
weaker, slower and less experienced than
the seasoned locals, but they played a
hearty game from the start, never faltering
in the face of certain defeat.
A late train delayed the visitors in their
arrival somewhat, so that they did not get
into their toys till long after 8 o'clock and
the big game did not till Q. As
a preliminary meanwhile the second team
Of the local association played the High
school team a game of two ffteen-minute
halves, with a hve-minute intermission.
The second team won by IS to . in a snappy

whistle sounded, but 1t did not take three
minutes to expose the discrepancy in the
teams and the result was never in doubt
after the first ten minutes of play.
Play Was Fast and Fierce.
Six points in each half was all the Wis
itors could score. Meanwhile the locals
rolled up thirteen the first half, playing
carefully. In the second half they let go a
little, knowing they were safe. and added
twenty-one more. Although the play was
fierce at times, It was we'll controlled by
the officials, and there were no injuries.
Every man lasted clear through and the
condition of the players seemed excellent.
At the end of the ten-minute intermission
they were fresh and strong as ever and
finished the match in good wind and form.
Uncle Gus" Miller, captain of the local
team, was a prime favorite will the crowd
and he, with Jardine, the other forward,
and Hanson, the center, threw four field
goals each. The most remarkable ones
thrown were accomplished one each by the
two guards, the Willard boys, who landed
the ball in the basket from positions and
distances that seemed well-nigh impossible.
Captain Hammill of the Lincoln team
succeeded in making two field goals, but
no other member of his team found the
basket for two points. Meanwhile Miller
was very weak on landing goals from the
foul line, he scoring on only four Of six
teen trials. Hagensick did better, making
eight points in this way out of sixteen
trials. The summary:
