BASKET BALL AT AMIGO.

The Wausau Y. NJ G. A. boys met
defeat at the hands of the Amigo high
school team last Friday night, at Anti
go, by the score of 40 to 20. But the
score does not by any means Indicate
the play, for the Wausau boys put up a
hard game. but were handicapped by
having to play on a floor that was like
sheet of glass and so slippery it was
J impossible to work in any team work.
In fact it was all our boys could do to
stand on their feet at all, while the
Amigo boys had done all their playing
and practicing on this floor and were
used to it and just slid away from the
WARSAW boys. The Amigo players are
heavy team and they played close,
rough game, with no team work at all.
They seemed to think all they had to do
was to charge in and get the bali any
way at all, and as our boys were not
used to that kind of playing they went
up in the air for awhile, but finally set
thing down and fighting every inch of
the game throughout, that is, whenever
they were on their feet, for they were
down half of the time. But they will
not experience any trouble in defeating
Amigo when the latter comes here.
Henry Bliss refereed and Brown UNI
pired and the crowd never seemed to
be satisfied with anything but decisions
in favor of Amigo, though they offic-
lated to the satisfaction of both teams.
Marshfeld high school plays here in
Castle hall tomorrow, Wednesday, and

fast aggregation. Last night the second
team lined up against the locals and
good, fast practice in team work was
INDUCED in. The boys are working
fine together and are in good shape for
the game.
The Senior-Junior class will furnish
the first half of the program before the
big game. Two picked teams will play
basket ball and a basket ball race will
be run off by them also. Mr.. Leheay
will referee the big game and Henry
Bliss will umpire.
The basket ball leagues of the differ
ent classes are furnishing some good

that the returns do not warrant the

There was never a book that pleased

productions ever seen here, and best
of all it will be presented by home
talent exclusively. Two hundred of the

roles. The costumes and properties are

duced. The entertainment will surpass
anything of the kind that has ever been
