THRILLER
was Basket Ball Game Between
CeElma and Dayton Cadets,
Score FaVOrIng Latter.

In what was easily the most thrilling
basket ball game ever played on the local
floor, the far famed Dayton Cadets de-
feated the Mercelinas by the score of 36
to "a. There was not a dull moment in
the entire contest and the ball was on
the move at all times. =.
Dutch Schultz started things an instant
after the whistle by field basket and
Manner soon followed with another. The
Daytonites then got busy and swamped
the locals in the first half by the score
of "a to a.
an the second half, however, the Mer-
celinas started to gain points and soon
were on their opponents heels. The
Cadets, who had hardly expected to get
of affairs and then began to get wor-
ried and were continually calling time
and in two instances succeeded in talk
ing the referee into changing his decis-
ion, and If this had not happened, Ce-
lima would have had four more points
with a possible FIVE. The rules are very
plain upon the subject touched upon and
Celina fans in general were very much
put out at the defeat of the locals when
they should have been the yictors by a
margin of two or possibly three points.
At one time the score was 33 to 33 and
the fans were on their toes wondering
how 1t was going to come out, when
Dayton got a foul and q field basket and
the locals dropped in a foul
Zimmerman and Marht were the star
performers for the visitors, the former
getting and the latter field baskets.

Unique in the musical world and pos
sessing a power to please far above the
average. the third number on the Shakes
pere Lecture Course will be the Musical
Art Quartette coming TO Celina tonight
Male Quartette singing continues to pre-
serve AN attractiveness TO the average

great demand for musical novelties and

tettes have departed i'm great measure
from formerly accepted standards. The
Musical Art Quartette, which appears
tonight was organized on the belief that
class music i'm a high class way and their
aim Is to sing the best selections from
modern classics in the way satisfying to
the critic but in no way losing its appeal
to the man i'm the pit
