BOB" STOWE ExoELs
Omega Girls Basketball Team Wins from Tau Quintet in Prclim-
 mary Game.


 Haven High school quintet was de- feated by the Alumni five at Ander- sons gymnasium, Saturday night, by the score of 3S-27. As was expected this game proved to be a very inter- esting one, for both teams played re- markably well. The Alumni team es- pecially played good ball, making ac- curate shots for the baskets, and do- ing much passing. Their good pass ing was a surprise to N. H. H. s. s team, which. expected great deal of individual work, This good passing might be accounted for by the fact that this hame Alumni team once composed the regular High school team and that the majority of them are now playing on the Hermes team. Runger who was present, but did not play, explained this same team in 1905- 06.
 At the beginning of the game the members of the High school team seemed unable to throw the ball into the basket, making wild shots, and missing many easy ones, where the Alumni team seemed to score at will. After the teams had been playing for about twenty minutes, 1t was discov- cred that there was no timer. Think ing the first half had lasted long enough, the two teams stopped playing the score being 1913, the Alumni team being in the lead.
 The High school team went in to win in the second half, but they no sooner scored a goal, when this trick was duplicated by the Alumni. About the middle of this half, Saxe the right forward of the high school team lac erated his eye-lid by hitting against an iron pole. He kept on playing, how ever, being changed from right for ward to guard position. The local High school played we'll this half and scored fourteen points.
 For the local team Frankel and Dut- tin excelled both putting up good ex- hibition. Frankel netted five baskets and one foul and Dustin secured three floor goals and six foul goals. For the Alumni team Stowe and Hogan ex- celled. Stowe got three baskets and did fine work at shooting fouls, shoot ing five out of six chances, and Hog gan showed up fine, throwing seven baskets. The lineup was as follows. N. H. H. s. Alumni Frankel ...,..........,. Stowe, (capt.) L oft Enruord
