SEMINARY WINS LAST g..
GAME OF SERIES.

The Seminary won the. decisive
game of the series with the high
school last Thursday when they de-
feated the latter by a score OF 1O-9. |
The game was hard fought and close
thruout, with both. sides guarding |
closely. Both teams tried good deal
of long shots, as one basket would |
have put either side in the lead any /
time during the game. The high school |
quint had an edge on the Seminary as
to teamwork, but they missed too
many shots and then did not follow
them up. The first half, the Seminary |
tried their long high passes but they
were broken up almost every time by |
the high school guards and Beese, the
tall center. In the second halt, the
north siders tried short passes and
got away with It in fine shape.
Wallin played good and mixed in the
teamwork and constantly fed the other
Seminary men. The one basket he
got was a dandy, being shot while un-
der guard. ]. Engleson played his US.
ually good offensive game netting two
baskets. One of them was shot a
minute before time was called and
consequently won the game for his
team. Canton shot a sensational bas-
ket when he came down the side line
at full speed and made an underhand
shot that dropped thru the net for the
Seminary's first basket. Lund, and
L. Engleson stayed back and broke
up much of the high school teamwork
LundQuist with three baskets and
| the bulk of the scoring for his team
was good Two of his shots were made
from past the middle of tho floor.
| Kleve played a good floor game but
| was too closely followed by L. Engle-
son to get many shots but made a nice
basket in the first half after a fash
of teamwork by the high school. En-
ickson and Osmundson guarded close
and played clean game, not one foul
being called on either man. Beese
watched J. Engleson to keep him from
scoring and consequently was back
quite bit. Here he served to the
best advantage in breaking up the
Seminary's long passes.
With the game standing SO in the
high schools favor and about two min
utes left to play, J. Engleson shot the
winning basket. Osmundson had
chance to tie the score when a foul
was called on Seminary man but he
missed and the game ended 1O-9 in
Seminary's favor. Tht refereeing work
done by Hamilton, formerly of Garlic
ton and University of Minnesota, was
of the highest quality.

GAS seen by Seminary Suddenly
In one of the closest, fastest game
games played here, the Seminary de
feated the high school at the higl
school gym. last Thursday night by ,
1919 score. i
Lundquist started the scoring b,
dropping pretty one thru follower
by one from Kleve. Then, Cantor
made a nice shot that did not coun
but came thru again with one NOR
and was followed by one by Joe Engle
son and a. foul by Wallin. The frs
half ended with the Seminary in tn
lead, So. The second half was fas
and furious and was featured by clos
guarding on both sides.
Wallin and Joe Engleson came thr
with one apiece the next half an
Wallin and Osmundson made fou
shot apiece.
The last shot by Joe Engleson wa
made within minute of the end q
the 40 minute period.
It was a good clean game which
proved by the fact that only five foul
were called on the Seminary and fou
on the high school. This also shatter
the contention that the Seminar
team plays such an extremely roug
game which seems to be the 0piniO
after the two previous games of tn
series, they having two and tire
times as many fouls called on the1
than the high school in the two game.
Hamilton, former University stal
refereed the game to the satisfaction
Of all concerned.
Scorekeepers: Bender and Harstat
