AGGIES TOO GOOD
CleVenger Five Defeats WASH
burn by Score of 40 to 16.
A Falling Rope Almost Puts
Quigley Down for the Count.

The Washburn basketball quintet
went down to defeat before the Aggies
again Thursday night by the score of
40 to IS, after having played the
Farmers practically to a standstill all
during the first half
The Clevenger men were handicap
ped by the size of the court and their
dribblers could not get in their work
The men could not find the baskets,
and at the end of the half the score
stood ID to 10 in favor of the Aggies,
But in the second half things began to
happen. The Aggies called in some
of their reserves, Reynolds was in
structed to go out and do something
and it was not long until all doubt as
to the outcome was removed.
Reynolds was by far the best player
seen in action during the game. II
was impossible for the IchabOd guards
to keep him covered up and he made
26 of his teams points, altho he was
taken out after the contest was
cinched.
Ichabods Improved.
The Ichabods played better team
work than at any previous time TINS
season and for the first few minutes
of play were more effective than th@lr
opponents in advancing the ball Dean
scored the greatest number OF polnts
for Washburn, getting II OF the 10
made The other four points were
made thru field goals of Hope and
TrulI.
The game was clean and fast and
Referee Quigley kept it running IKE
creased lightning. During the f'rst
period "Quig" was almost knocked out
