THREE PLAYERS WE'RE INJURED.
to Play-capt. Riley was Unconscious
Bellows Falls Won 21-14.

The game between Bellows Falls and
the Brattleboro Athletics Friday evening
was called two minutes before the last
period closed on account OF injuries to
Dan Riley and ketChum in "A head-on
collision. the score standing 81 to "a in
favor of the visitors. ketchum entered
the game at the beginning OF the second
period to take the place of Henry Ever
leth, who twisted his right knee severely
and was unable to keep on with the
game. With Bellows Falls seven points
ahead the Bratteboro boys were playing
the game for all they were worth when
Ketchum and Riley struck their heads
together. Time was called on account OF
the condition Of ketChums eye. which
received the fun force of the blow. Riley
did not appear to be injured. with the
exception OF a cut on his forehead, but
while ketchum was out nursing his eye
Riley collapsed and became unconscious.
The players worked over him some min
utes and DR.. Anderson was sent for.
Riley did not rally for five minutes, and
the game was called. The use of re-
storatives brought Riley to his feet and
before the evening was over he was all
right again. Ketchum had one OF the
worst black eyes ever received in a
basketball game here.
The game was fairly fast, but the lack
OF practice made good passing and team
work out of the question. Harry Both
well filled the bill at centre and did some
effective all-around work johnson made
a good showing against Kelly, the fast
est man on the floor, and ne established
himself in high favor with the audience.
Ellis was booked to play with Brattle
boro but at the last moment he decided
to play with Springfield. EVerleth did
good work until he twisted his knee.
Henry Whitney was put in to finish out
the period and Ketchum was put in for
the remaining periods. ketchum, the
Putney boy, soon showed that he was
in the same class with the regulars,
and he may play in the regular team in
the next game. johnson won all four
points for Brattleboro in the first period.
Boutwell, won all six in the second period
and Stafford and Ketchum contributed
two points each in the last period. Bel
lows Falls was four points ahead at the
close OF the first period, the score being
to 4, and in the second the Athletics
tied the score and then were left behind
again. the score being u to 10 in favor
