seemed to have more trouble guard

any other game which he played.
The Normalites had a play that
kept the husky guard puzzled until
the last few minutes of the game.
Golf, forward, and Holdridge, center,
were the main clogs in the Madison
machine. Johnson caging four out of
six free throws, looked much better
than Strauss for the Catholics, who
missed every one of five chances for
points on fouls. Both teams played
slow during the first half. The
Trinity players fumbled a great deal
and missed the majority of their
shots. Dischner did most of the
heavy work, dropping in four easy
ones.

BASKET BALL
ITINERARY OF MADISON QUIN-
TET AS REPORTED FROM
OTHER TOWNS.

Yankton, March 3.--In a fine game
of basket ball, with both teams well
matched. Yankton college defeated
Madison Normal here Thursday night
by a score of "a to 20.
Mitchell, March 3.-Dakota Wes-
leyan's basket ball team added to its
unbroken string of victories by de-
|feating the Madison Normalites in
the fastest game of the season by a
score of 80 to 81. A series of sue
cessful long side shots by Capt. Golf,
OF the Normal team, had put the
score in Madison's favor by four
points at the end of the first half.
But led by Capt. Hardness, who shot
nine baskets, the Wesleyan quintet
came back in the second half and by
the hardest kind of fighting overcame
the lead and held it to the end. Due
to strong guarding by Wilder and
Garland, Madison scored only two
field baskets during the strong half.
Sioux City, March 3.-Friday night
Trinity put another one over ON old

Normal basket ball five, % to Is.
The game was slow at the outset, but
both quintets speeded up as the con-

the Trinity five slowed up as the
time neared for the final whistle, but
last nights game was an exception.
This was exemplified in Dischner,
