DEFEATS GARY FIVE
IN A GREAT GAME
Hammond High School Bias
ket- Ball Team Wins
Two Games.

The Hammond high school acquitted
itself with glory last Saturday night.
In a double basketball contest the
local school came out with flying col
ors, downing both the high school fives
of Mckinley and Gary. This makes
the third victory this season for the
school team.
The first game of the double-header
was played between Gary and Ham
mond's second team. The contest was
a spirited one from start to finish. but
Hammond took the lead from the start
and held it throughout the game. The
first half ended with Hammond having
scored II points and Gary s. In the
second half Gary tried hard to over
come the lead but by numerous fouls
they were unable to head Hammond.
The game ended with Hammond hav-
ing scored % points and Gary H.
Immediately after the curtain raiser
the Hammond Mckinley game started.
1t was the best game the local team
played this season, being a fierce con-
test from start to finish. Hammond
made the first score and held the lead
throughout the game. although McKin-
ley in the fore part of the contest was
giving the local boys a good rub.
Gradually Hammond's scoring machine
started and after this Mckinley was
unable to stop them, but they broke up
the different plays well. Hammond was
the aggressor all through the game
and was master of the contest all the
time The first half ended with the
score standing, Hammond, 20; McKin-
| ley, H.
i After this Hammond had the game
won and simply played Mckinley off
their feet. They kept on rolling up a
larger score Although the city lads
saw they were beaten they kept right
on and tried to keep Hammond from
scoring. Hammond allowed Mckinley
to score only points in the last half,
bringing their score up to 10, while in
turn Hammond scored %, making their
end of the score Al. The contests were
both hard fought and Hammond we'll
deserves credit for the two victories.
OF course, credit is also due to the van
quished teams for playing hard and
also for showing the true gentleman
spirit even if they were beaten.
