SEASON OPENS
IN BASKETBALL
Y. M. c. A, Defeats Strong B.
7. u. Aggregation by Close
Score of Fl to 20.

The basketball season opened at the Y
NJ. c. A. last night, with game that
will go down on the books as one of the
fastest ever played in the city. The Y
NJ c. a. team nosed out a victory over
b. Y. l, by the narrow margin of p 10
20. The score at the end of the first
half was II to 8 in favor of the Provo
players. In the first half Provo had all
the better of the playing, and had their
opponents on the defensive all the time.
In the second half. however. the local
players solved the visitors tactics and
little by little lessened the difference in
the score. This was largely due TO the
accurate goal tossing. both from the field
and from the foul line by Hoisington.
Hoffman also played 4 faster game and
added to the scoring. When the score
was a tie and the men forged ahead
the enthusiasm of the big crowd present
knew no bounds.
Perhaps the most exciting moment in
the game was al the very close The
score stood q to 20 in favor of the Y NJ
c. A, and just as the whistle blew for
the ending Of the half a local player was
penalized, giving b. Y. L. d free throw.
At this moment the crowd, thinking that
the game was over rushed out on the
floor, yelling for the Y NJ. G. A team.
The Provo player, however, had not yet
had his free try for goal The crowd
was at last persuaded to sit down again.
and Curley, of Provo, prepared to try
for goal If ne made il the score would
be tied and the game would have to be
continued until one team OF the other
scored two points. ii he missed the game
would be over and the Y NJ. c. A the
winners Gurley. however. was not equal
to the occasion and the game went to

and proved beyond a doubt that he is a
player of exceptional ability. Gum play
