played a double header basket ball
game with Las Animas. OF the two
games. the boys game was the clos

and the game had to be started with
subs and only four players at that.

begun the full Las Animas team
was playing Its best. La Junta won
the first half with score OF Il to

of 81 TO -. The lineup was. cap
