has been done in each case and above
all to make sure the patients select
ed for treatment have tuberculosis. F"

from the field and two from the foul
line. while Richland also made two
fiel2 goals and five from a free throw,
making the score to during that
period. The second half was a repe-
tition of the first for the Pendleton-
ians, six more points being annexed

points on fouls.

of the season, according to Miss Ruth
Wise, coach, who accompanied the
players. The points were evenly di-
vided between Lillian Gulliford and
Claire Mcdonald.
