the referee called very few fouls.
Foot ball tactics were greatly in
evidence.
The first half ended with the
Seminary three points in the lead,
the score standing 13 to 10. In the
second half the Grove City team
started a rally, which for a time
looked disastrous for the Semin-
ary's hopes Of victory. At one
time the local players scored four
field goals in quick succession, CIV
ing them a lead of three points.
Instead of disheartening the Semin-
ary Team. this only served to in
fuse them with new vigor, and at
the time keepers whistle the score
standing % to 10 in favor of the
visiting team.
From foul free throws the Sem
mary scored four out of a possible
six. and Grove City two out of five.
The Willmarites report a good
time. and very nice treatment at
the hands of the Grove City people.

down to Grove City to play their
first out-of- town game Of the sea-
son. The team went down with the
firm intention of winning. no mat
ter what the odds might be. This
spirit never fails to bring results,
and in this case the result was that
the Seminary scratched out VIC

feating their opponents by the
score of % to 19. h
!: The game was played on a very
small floor which almost prevented
all team work. From beginning to
