young men, part of whom are married,
who would like to come to Wisconsin

have played havoc with the crops there

basket during this period. This is
quite unusual in a close game. The
local machine had difficulty in getting
started during this period and because
of hard luck in having their numerous
shots refuse to roll in, they secured but
s points in this period to Lacrosse Is
