but the victory Of the Farmer five was
the result of reversal of form which
made the achievement the more note
worthy
There~were few flaws In the work of
the Age4es. Their passing. basket throw
ing and defensive work was excellent,
while the team work of the winning
quint was all that could be expected.
Day, at guard, demonstrated wonderful
defensive skill and spoiled innumerable
plays. He also made two difficult goals.
The Aggies' defense, though brilliant,
was not eclipsed by the performances
on the attack. The offense, built around
Morris and Cole, was much stronger
than at any time this year. These two
players had no difficulty in caging goals
