Basketball Game at Camden Gave Op, pOrtunity For Some Fine Work and Pine Bluff High School Girls Were
 Equal to the Occasion.


 Equal to the Occasion. A new version of the Pine Bluff High School Girls basketball game has been given by the students and the Pine Bluff players themselves since their return. Although the Pine Bluff girls did not gain a decis- | i've victory, Prof. Ernest Mckenzie, coach and manager of the team is l highly elated over the fine work of his l team in this game The score waa tie, 13 and 13. But since the Pine Bluff girls were beaten by Camden, when they met in this city for the first time some weeks ago, the score is considered good.
 Every girl on the Pine Bluff team played her part we'll. The te'am work of the five was very fine, and the in- dividual playing of some members during the game showed rightly among the playing of the entire girls on the floor.
 Miss Ethel Mann, among the most skilled of the five ladies, saved the day for her team. It was at the most exciting point of the game. During the last few seconds play tho score stood 12 to 13 in favor of the Camden team. The referee called a foul on the part of a Camden player, and the next second the official timekeeper called time. The game was over but Pine Bluff had a chance to throw for goal oil the foul, the missing of which meant defeat and to make the goal the game would be tied. Miss Mann was named to throw for the goal. It was at this critical stage of the game that Miss Mann tossed the ball into the basket, tying the score. Not only did Miss Mann show up we'll in this. but during the game she starred by throwing eleven of the coveted goals out of fifteen trials.
 Miss Mann played forward on the Pine Bluff five, and she was ably as- sisted at this position by Miss Jean Hart, who has an enviable record on the gymnasium floor. Another young lady wi fho showed up fine in this game was Miss Evan Goree, the skill ed player at guard. She accomplish aI 1pAc ;, the game, and has been repeatedly complimented on her general playing.
 It was Miss Kate Slaughter who filled the other position at guard so admirably during this game. Seldom is better player found than either Miss Nettie Mullikih or Miss Emma Sorrells at center. Both played with ease and confidence in the Camden game, and but for their superior aid at all times, the game might not have been saved. Two games have been played so far and so many of the young ladies tat the High School have played so we'll that Prof. Mckenzie Is stiNl unable to decide on one team as representative of the school. Mr., Mckenzie states that the girls are improving greatly in the game, and he considers the chances for a. champion ship team very encouraging.
 A game, which will be played at the Y. M. c. A., Friday night between the Sorosts and Pi Psi Literary so- cieties, is being watched with much interest by the students as we'll as the patrons.
 The gymnasium of the High School has been fitted up and practice will begin there this week. The young Rad- ies have been pract:cing at the Y. M. c. A. gymnasium, but will now go to the High School, where practice will be held every afternoon.
 The game deciding the tie between Camden and Pine Bluff Friday eight will be played here at an early date, but what date it VIII be has not been set. The game will take place be- iore Christmas, however.
