DEFEATED BY THE
!. v. C.. A.
Exciting Basketball Game Goes
to Locals After Hard Fought
Contest; Score 10 to IA,

The Las Vegas Normal School CHRIS
basketball team. which was worstcd
BY the Varsity girls Friday night, met
defeat again yesterday afternoon at
the Casino, their opponents being the
Young Woman's Christian association
team. The score was nineteen 10
fourteen in favor of the locals and 1t
was an interesting exhibition all the
way. The score at the end OF the
first half was fourteen to seven IN IA
yor of the association and
they tried hard in the last han 10 oV~
ertake their adversaries the visitors
were unable TO do so. The WORK Oh
the Y. w. G. A. girls was exceptionally
good in view of the act that they
had not ~practiccd since their last
game with the Varsity, more than q
month ago, and had but a few hours
notice that they were to play the
Meadow City girls. Miss Lucy Eide,
captain and running center for the I.
w. c. A., was the star for her side,
throwing nearly all the goals ana
making a number OF pretty asket
from the field. Miss Louise Trahey,
running center for Las Vegas, al
though quite a small girl for such q
strenuous position, did ON splendid
work for her side yesterday, PLAYING
a..
ii anything. a better game than
against the Varsity Friday,
The Las Vegas Girls left for home
last night after having spent a very
pleasant two days in Albuquerque.
Although they return to their city
with two defeats hanging over them,
the Normalites were not a bit dis
heartened. They are n game bunch
Of basketball players and accepted de-
feat in q very graceful manner by
those who know the Normal
team II is said that the scores in both
the Varsity and Y. w. c. A. games
would have been different II the nan
had permitted Miss Margaret
Duerr. a guard. and Miss Josephine
Young, a forward, to play. Both Miss
Duerr and Miss Young accompanied
the team because OF o faculty ruins
which was enforced against them,
they were compelled to occupy a po-
sition on the side lines and watch the
play instead of being in the thick OF
il. 1t is said hat these two young
ladies'. had they been permitted to
PLAY. would have brought victory &c
the purple and the white.
The lineup of the Y. w. c. a. game
yesterday follows:
