Tigers Are Winners.
The game between the Tigers and

closing attraction. In the first half
there was little scoring and the Tigers
finished it in the lead, to 5. The In
dependents were deficient in goal
shooting and were kept closely tied VIC
by the guarding game played by the
winners.
In the second half Parsons and
Aberg played a strong game for the
Tigers and Gallivan was the star for
the n. F. A. five, but the Tigers were
ttoo speedy for the Independents and
left them in the rear to the tune of
