Montpelier high school basketball
teams won two victories Thursday even
ing, when they met the st. Adams school
and a team from Mortified on the ar
mory floor in Montpelier The first team
defeated st. Adams by score of 50 to
Is, while the second team won from
Mortified by score of IS TO Is. The
first team game was not a good one to
watch, there being little comparison be-
tween the two teams. The Montpelier
team ran away with the scoring in the
first period, but in the second the visitors
seemed to brace up a little, with the
result that the home team did little
scoring in that part of the game. Mont

seen here this winter, doing some nice
