NO BASKETBALL GAME.
Business College Crippled, Cannot
Play Company L Tonight.

Because some of the Business col
lege players are crippled the basket
ball game scheduled for tonight be-
tween the Business college and COM
pany L, will not be played. Until
last evening 1t was the intention to
play the game in the gymnasium but
last night the Business college man.
ager announced that his team could
not keep its appointment.
The game between the business
students and the militiamen would
have been the second OF the seris to
be played for the Winslow cup. So
far the high school has lead pipe
cinch upon the trophy and 1t is
doubtful If their grip can be shaken
though it is declared some further
games will be played.
