to some girl friends, when ne slipped on

small bones broken and the ligaments

friends came running and helped him to

night that Thoney may possibly play In

They say the fracture and the wrench

The Gallaudet College basket ball quint
easily defeated the badly crippled lineup
of the Georgetown Collegians last even
ing at the Kendall Green court, the final
score being 4S 10 II. Although the mutes
deserve credit for a brilliant victory, yet
1t must not be taken that they retaliaed
on the same hilltop quint which defeated
them in Ryan gymnasium a week past. OF
that formidable aggregation only one
regular was in the lineup Of last even
ing, the rest being kept out of competition
by conditions sustained in the mid-year
examinations.
The battle last evening started off with
an early score by Bjorlee Of the Mutes,
which was followed soon after by a goal
by Pallen Of the losers. During the first
FIVE minutes Of the struggle the Collegians
were able to hold their own. but then the
poor condition Of the substitutes became
evident and from that point until the
end there was nothing to it but Gallaudet.
The phenomenal goal tossing of Capt.
Birch OF the Kendall Green quint was the
big feature Of the evening. This player
seemed to have throwing disease, for
time and again he made almost 1mpos-
sible shots from difficult angles and long
distances. His teammate. Morris, also
played In excellent form. For the losers
Pallen. Graham and Dilkes played the
best, although these three were, with the
other two, handicapped by lack OF team
work due to not having performed to-
gether before this year.
