The Keokuk high school reserves
cleaned up on the Hamilton high
school team at the ''Y" gym Friday
night while the first team was taking
beating a. Mt. Pleasant by a score
Of 20 to 81.
The local team played fair game,
their worst trouble being the lack OF
defensive tactics, which allowed the
Hamiltcn quinte.te to shoot baskets
frequently. The work of Birge Elder
in basket shooting and the floor work
Of c. Mckenzie and Ted Elder was
excellent.
Hamilton played more clever game
but showed lack of practice on z
fast floor. Keokuk was hampered by
a bad at ack of stage fright at yari-
Gus times throughout the game. The
lineup was as follows:
