THE UNIVERSITY team WON
THE BASKETBALL GAME WAS
RATHER ONE SIDED.

In a rather one sided game OF
basketball between the University OF
North Carolina and the Durham Y.
NJ. c. A., at Chapel Hill last night,
the university team won over the Y.
NJ. C. A. by a score Of so TO is.
The Durham team threw only
three goals in play, their other points
coming from fouls. The game was a
very onesided affair. and Carolina's
lead would have been much larger
had II not been for the surprising
frequency with which Referee
Eusteen called fouls. The Durham
boys nut mp a good clean game and
played Just as well in the second
half as the first. They we're simply
outclassed. Murray and Houston
featured the game for the Durham
boys.
Carolina scored 80 points TO Dur
hams IL during the first half. Eight
OF Durham's points came from fouls
which we're thrown by Houston. He
missed only one Of nine chances.
The game started of ragged. Neither
side scored for two minutes, and II
looked as II POOR game was to be
expected. Carolina braced here. and
in four minutes had thrown as many
goals. The first half, on the whole,
was slow. Carolina fouled frequent
ly and was miserably weak on de-
Tense. They played we'll while they
had the ball. but time and time
again Durham raced down the floor
only 70 miss a score from poor pass
ing. The prettiest goal of the half
was thrown by Murray. OF Durham.
who made a beautiful tally from a
scrimmage. H. yards from the
basket. Referee Eusteen slowed up
the game considerably by calling a
number OF fouls for both sides.
Watkins substituted Goodrich at
beginning OF second half. The Var
slty came back strong from the ten
minutes rest aud piled up 20 more
points before three substitutes we're
sent in. In the early part OF the half
Durham missed a number OF easy
chances and made number Of trys
from positions unnecessarily hard.
Carolina will play Wake Forest
Friday nigh in Chapel Hill.
