Our insurance rate is only TWENTY

the insurance companies consider the
danger of loss from fire in our ware

MORGANTOWN, Feb. 17-As a
result of the varsity-Fairmont nor
NAL game Tuesday night in which the
Varsity finished the victors "a to 80,
followers Of the team are predicting
q whirlwind finish Of the 1915 sea-
son and supremacy over the teams In
the state which are battling for safe
honors. To defeat such a strong
team as Fairmont on the home floor
under such conditions and hondlcaps
as the varsity was compelled to work
is q feat extraordinary and while the
institution at Fairmont Is only
classed as a, normal school It has q
basketball team that would measure
up With the best college teams Of the
states. The Varsity won the fame
through endurance, acquired by sew
eral weeks OF training and hard daily
workouts and not because OF the
weakness of the Falrmont five. West
Virginia has been keeping In the
background in championship chatter
but from now on q different attitude

game was over Tuesday night Coach
Pile approached the normal man

the lie game in the armory at Fair

repeatedly offered Davis and Elkins
the date Of February "a, but has been

be on a trip at that time and 1t would
be an easy matter to come down to
Morgantown. AS the situation now
stands, the team will not be allowed
to play any more games away than
have been scheduled as the six-day

will play one game with Davis and
