Sophomore class carries off the
school honors In basketball On FRIDAY
evening last, was held the last Of
series OF basketball games to decide the
class championship. This game was
to decide between the two first rank
teams the seniors and sophomores Ik
was very well attended and enthusiasm
ran high. Although the seniors OUT
| numbered the sophonores, the latter
showed themselves to distinct advantA
age By their systematic yeIls, directed
by a good yell-master. The teams
were very evenly matched and the
game was very evenly contested
| throughout, indeed It was not until the
I last four minutes OF play that field
RoaId would not swing the victory
from one side to the other. Both
teams were in the lead several times
during the game until the sophomores
succeeded in getting four points ahead
OF their opponents during the last two
minutes OF play This lead they held
to the end OF the game. If any com
parison is to be made 1t might be said
that the s0phomores had the advantage
over the seniors in endurance. also the
senior team was not as well balances.
They placed too much confidence ia
one man, who although good player
was very seriously handicapped By an
opponent who developed the bad habit
OF always being in the way at the
wrong time--from the seniors stand
point.
The lineup WAS as follows
Seniors. Sophomores
