FORT DE RUSSY ITEMS
a nnnnmnmn.mn.mnm


Thanks to a moderation In the heavy
winds that have been Blowing ut Fort
De Russy for the past two days the
final games between the hand.ball
teams of the remaining detachment
and the regular teams of this post
were played Friday evening and
last night Sergeant Arthur Spencer,
the first sergeant of Company q, and
Corporal Ernest Precske. Of the same
company. played the winning game In
the finals and thereby placed the home
camp I'm the position of the leaders.
All the games were well played and
the detachment teams are entitled to
much credit for the class of play that
was shown on the courts. The con-
tests began early In the afternoon and
lasted until late In the evening and at
no time during the games did the
play lack interest to the many who
were on the sides of the courts.
II Is hoped that when the detach.
mcnts return to camp that new Sc.
rles of games can be played AS this
contest has given the entire camp a
great amount Of pleasure. Both courts
will still be continued at the post for
this camp.
