| Norris of Cook School proved the star
of the Cook-Langston game, which re-
suited in a score of % to in favor Of
Cook. The boys from Langston kept the
ball moving always around their goal
and soon an intercepted pass cleared the
way for another Cook tally. Langston
was totally outclassed. but kept trying.
To the credit of the school manage
ment. Banneker put forth lightweight
team. although there was no material on
hand that warranted even the chance OF
a second-rate team This sort Of thing
is what makes for good sport. Jones

better game. The teachers and pupils at

If things happen to go wrong Murphy is
sure to want TO put in his oar. and that
is where the fun will begin.
The Tinker deal. by the way, is on
