Woodbsns- Dsatsn by Missouri

Before yelling, pushing, loyal,
happy crowd, last evening at the
new high school gym, the Mis-
souri, Valley pill tossers' got
away with Woodbine's nanny. The
final score was, SO to "a. At the
end of the first half the score was
90 to ~ in Missouri Valleys fa-
vor. It was hard fought game,
and the best seen here this year.
Many subs were used by both
sides. Captain Chambers for the
Valley lost his wind, due to a
very severe cold which has been
kbothering him for three days.
"Windmill" Douglass was rushed
to the rescue. He stopped the
,Woodbine bunch in their tracks
at once. But he too did not con-
serve that one great necessity of
any basket bah player, his wind,
land was forced to retire for a
kgeod supply of oxygen. Windy"
Good then took his place, and the
Woodbine boys were forced to let
Missouri Valley shoot few has
kets. The final whistle then
sounded, and the score was an
nounced. Yells without number
broke loose. There was not an
old person in the audience, for by
the antics everyone cut, it looked
as if one was in boyville again.
But everyone, even the staid and
solemn faculty members, were
overwhelmed with joy, for this
victory puts M. v. H. S. one notch
closer to the tournament at Ames.
Next Friday evening our boys
go to Denison to pluck the grapes,
and two weeks from last night
lt'hey will fight it out with the con-
tingentT from Little Sioux. Want
