CONTEST At M'GIlL'S
STOPPED AFTER HALF

Owing to the fact that one of the
baskets on the McGiii court came loose
in the game last night between the
Junior Scholastics and the Holy Name
Society. the contest was called off at
the end of the first half with the score
standing 11-11. The good showing
OF the Holy Name boys against the
Scholastics Is said to be due to the ac-
QUESTION of Brand and Trainer, for
merly of the McGill Reserves.
The Scholastics have challenged the
Holy Name Society, asking that the
game be played on the Richmond How
itxer court.
