WILLIAM AND MARY DEFEATS
RICHMOND HOWITZER=llEJIN'T

Especial to The Richmond Virginian)
Williamsburg, Va, Jan. s.-Excell-
ing the soldier boys in every depart
ment. the William ami Mary Indians
tonight won decisive victory over
the Richmond Howitzers, the score
being So to 80. The Orange and Black
put up the greatest exhibition OF the
season, and never was the result of
the contest in doubt.
The Indians took the lead from the
jump and only a few seconds had
elapsed after the first ball had been
tossed into the air before the ball had
been Gagged by the Williamsburgers.
In the initial period the Indians ex-
actly doubled the score on the Howitz-
ers, scoring total of thirty-four
points to the Hichmonders seventeen.
In the closing half the Richmond
artillerymen started off like a house
on fire. and It looked as IL they were
destined to even matters. However,
the Indians pulled themselves to-
gether in a short while. and the final
result WIS almost as one-sfded as at
the end OF the initial period.
The game was fast and interesting
from start to finish. and both qulnts
put up the game Of their lives. The
work of Zion, Captain Jones and
Gayle featured for the williamsburg
ers. while Happy" I.awrence's spec
tacuar goal shooting was the out
standing feature for the Richmond
Howitzers Lawrence scored twenty
one OF the visitors points.
