PRESBYTERIANS WIN
TAKE HARD GAME FROM METHo
DISTS At NORMAL COURT,
81 TO fS.

Although topped at the end of the
first half by four points. the Pres
byterian basket ball five came from
behind in the second session and
pulled up at the end victorious over
the Baraca class five of the Metho-
dist church in the game at the Nor
NAL gymnasium last night. The
score was "a to Is.
The game had a feature. There
were no free throws tossed, an un-
usual occurrence in a hard game,
Those who essayed the feat for both
teams proved to be unable to find
the basket under no opposition. but
had eagle eyes when shooting from
the floor.
Center Pease of the Presbyterian
five, distinguished himself by secur-
ing five field baskets and Coach G,
C. Wagner, who substituted toward
the close for a tired combatant. Sc
cured three during his regime.
As was previously announced, Rev
erends McKibbin and Minish official
ed as centers for the first tip-off, but
thereafter retired to a less dangerous
vantage point and enjoyed the battle
as spectators. 1t is understood thai
In their only appearance on the court
this season, they performed both
agilely and well.
There is a possibility of another
contest between the two teams at the
high school gymnasium. An effort
will be made to organize girls teams
at the W churches and make the
affair a double header.

Clever boxing means high speed
boxing To get speed you must do
great deal OF shadow boxing. Imagine
you are boxing with the champion.
Don a pair OF mits and tackle the
champion. Box him and then slug with
him. Work as II you were really in a
