THE second half increased in earn
estness until several times the teams
were on the frontier between friend
illness and squabblelano- The uNe
from troop D started the ball 70
rolling and for some time it appeared
that they might win. Feidmans, how
ever. knew too much about the game
for the mounted men Both began -
mix rough stuff and each complained
Of the tactics OF the other.
Army supporters claimed that there
we're four personal fouls on Fox. OF
tho Feidman team, and shouted that
it was time that something be done IN
way Of putting Fox out OF the game
others also claimed Fox had com
mitted four personal fouls but this
was probably q mistake as the official
score keeper did not have il so
recorded Both teams applied the
rough stuff some but there was this
distinct diffe1ence-ths Feldmans
cavalry boys looked serious about it.
The final score was S0-16 with the
army boys having the little end.
Ths army team was weakened by
injury 20 Owen who sustained
sprained ankle during the second
half Capt Woods stated that the
troop D quintet have no place to prac-
tice, which probably accounts for the
many misses from the field Although
defeated the army boys made a good
showing and with practice Should
give any Of the local teams a hard
tussie. Team work and mastery Of the
finer points Of the game won for
