Two Good Games.
Dope was reversed Friday night In
the basketball games when Kellogg
Biree took on Huiskamps, the last
years pennant winners, by, tidy
score Of 25-1S.
Purity Oats also came back from
their former defeat by winning from
Mississippi River Power company by
a small margin. 25-22. One of the
mirth provoking stunts of the game
was = goal in the Purity Oats basket
made by King Of the NJ. r. P. Co.,
which OF course counted for the Oats
men the same as II one OF their own
team had made It.
The first game. between Kellogg
Birge and Huiskamps, was a mighty
good game to see. and the team work
was exceptionally fine. The addition
OF Henry" Porterneld, the old Y star
to the X. B. squad gives them the con-
fldence they lacked last year. and
with the added experience Breiten-
stein. Allen. McQuoid and others are
showing up In much better form than
last year, although there are far too
many baskets missed at present to
say they are In good form.
The Red Huiskamp aggregation did
mt seem to get going in this game
with the exception of some spurts OF
a few minutes duration, in which the
old time form Of the pennant winners
came to light, and when they get
"going" in their old style the team
work and accurate shooting makes an
impregnable wall. Sheldon. playing
at left guard, got most Of the baskets,
and was in the game at all times, his
quickness to catch hold Of any. oppor-
tunity to advance the ball showing
his experience and skill in the game.
The X. b. men had many more
chances to toss goal than had the
Huiskamp team, but they were rather
"of" on shots. while the shoe men
made good whenever they had .
chance.

Second game
Purity Oats squared up for their
loss Tuesday by winning from NJ. r.
P. Co., last night in the closest game
Of the league SO far. Little Dixie"
was everywhere in the game, getting
the lions share Of goals as the old
time high school team form came back
to him. Each man on the team played
a good floor game, and the ones who
are new at the game are working 50
hard to learn that all eyes are on the
Purity Oats bunch
The M. r. P. Co. team which made
such good showing last year was
in the game at all times, and led by
Capt. Paul King, whose work Is alone
worth the price Of admission at any
game, they kept creeping up from be-
hind till at the last minute It was any
body's game. The teams are well
matched, and the outcome Of the sec
ond round when they meet will be q
feast to See
