boys, accompanied by Fir. Adons and r. ". Perkins, started for Snowflake and St. Johns, where they met the acrdeny team from each of the above named schools in a match game of basket ball. = The game with the Snowflake Academy was played on Thanks giving day and aesultcd in 9 victoay for the Flagstag Normal boy by a scorse of II to 13.
 On Saturday following Thanks giving day the gone with the St. Johns Academy was playdd. This game aesulted in ascorse of 10 to 15 in favor of St, Johns.
 Both games were closely ccn- tested by the opposing teams and were attended with enthus- ias1n and excitement by t h e large crowed on the side lines.
 The Normal boys made a fine showing in both games and had it not been for the long tiresome drive preceding the St. Johns game and the fact that one of Normal's forwards wrenched his knee in the beginning of t h C game there is every reoson to believe that both games would have resulted in a victory for the Normal team. Even as it was the St. Johns team was com pelled to put up a hard fight from beginning to end in orderto win. These were the first match games for the Normal team and every member of the team did honor to our school by the way he played.
 It is hoped that the weather will stay good so that a return games with one or both of these schools may be played on the home field before Christmas. The Normal team will work hard to win the return games and they deserve from the Flagstaff people the same kind of support and loyalty that tee people of Snowflake and St. Johns showed their teams.
 The line up for the two games was as follows:
