REEDSBURG HIGHS
PLAY BARABOO

The Baraboo high school and Reeds
burg high school girl teams played to
a tie Friday evening in a very holly
fought basket ball contest The final
score was to 4. The point maker
for Baraboo was Mildred Weiland, who
got both baskets. An extra two-min-
ute session was played, but the tie
could not be broken The lineup of
the girls team for BarabOO was:
NJ Pugh, c.; NJ Weiland F.; L,
Brownell, F.; A. Carroll, F.; G. Jones,
G.; A. Harmed, G.
The boys team did not fare as we'll
as the girls team. They were beaten
Is to IA. The measles helped a great
deal in the defeat, Baraboo losing two
of her best players through sickness,
George Schenck and Homer Hanson.
The game was hard fought throughout.
The star for Baraboo was William
Radtke. He was all over the floor
and seemed to be the only player who
could locate the basket. He had
great deal of hard luck on his shots,
also the ball rolling around the rim
and running out several times. He
succeeded in caging his usual aggres-
sive game. The star of Reedsburg
was Heimer. The Baraboo lineup fol-
lows:
Forwards, E. Terry, 1, w. Radtke, 8;
center, H. Monroe, 1; Guards, A.
Kieffer, F. Brand. Terry made four
free throws
AFTERNOON GAME

No Change in Money situation.

An important banker declared yester-
day there was no possibility OF any
change being made in the present prac-
tlce OF requiring daily reports of loans
from Stock Exchange firms, contrary to
reports around the Street that after the
Liberty Loan campaign this daily re-
porting would be abandoned. The neces-
sity for close scrutiny of loans still ex-
lists, he pointed out, and as the banks
will be called upon to take further is
sues of Treasury certificates as soon as
the Liberty drive is ended they will
need TO watch their resources carefully.
In fact It is his view that even II the
war ended abruptly there would have to
be another Liberty loan, for the Gov
ernment's expenditures will continue
very heavy for many months after the
war is over. SO far as the stock market
Is concerned the money committee is
not against higher prices, but no ex-
panson in loans will be permitted The
bankers are well satisfied with present
conditions and do not want to see any
change that would make further re-
strictions necessary.
