NORWAY Il. 3S; wKsTBRooK SEM. "a.
Norway High proved too strong for
Westbrook Seminary ut the Opera
House Friday evening and won the game
without any great effort. The West
brook team was much the heavier, but
Norway's team play and fast floor work
enabled them to keep possession OF the
ball most Of the time. Westbrook was
also wild In their shooting, ~ was shown
by the fact that they scored only hve
baskets from the floor during the game,
and but for the good work Of Redmond
in shooting fouls, the visitors score
would have been very small.
The feature of the game was the all
round scoring ability OF the NORWAY
team, every man on the team with the
exception Of Brooks, who played only .
few minutes, scoring at least two bas-
kets from the floor. There was no ipdi-
vidual star In the Norway lineup for
this game, but the whole team played
together In q manner which they have
not done before this year, and the result
was most gratifying to their supporters.
Redmond scored twenty Of the visit
ors' twenty -four points, getting three
baskets from the floor and shooting
fourteen fouls. Douglass, who played
center during the last bali, scored the
other four points made BY his team.
Pollard, Westbrook's referee, called
fouls on Norway continually; even In
the last bali while acting as umpire, he
called more fouls than did Russell, who
was doing the refereeing for that half.
Redmond turned fourteen OF these fouls
into points for his team. Quite q large
number of fouls were called on West
brook, but Bethel failed to show bis u.s.
ual ability In making them count for bis
teamO Andrews seeing that Bethel was
not In his usual form, tried his luck, but
bis work was no Improvement.

With regard to skating, the following
paragraph from Current Events is offer
ed as a suggestion:
Turn vacant city lots into skating
Kinks! That is new Detroit idea. II
might be done in almost any city in the
northern states. Choose level lot. Set
boards on edge around the lot by driving
stakes into the ground to hold the
boards in place. Then heap moist earth
against the boards, on both sides, and
let il freeze. Fill the Enclosure with
water, to the depth of two or three
inches, and let that freeze. When the
ice surface has been worn out by much
skating, more water can be turned in
and new surface formed. Many own
ers of vacant lots are willing to give per-
