Liberal 3l-Bucklin 26


Basket ball had the stage in Lib
eral Thursday evening when two
spectacular games were played at the
Armory. The game between Lib
erals five and the Bucklin quintette
was one of the finest exhibitions of
sport ever seen in Liberal. Supt.
Mahuron of Bucklin brought down a
dandy bunch of athletes. Liberal
boys were in the pink of condition
with every man in the game. For the
first quarter the visitors had the
edge of one point, the score being
7-6 The first half ended with Lib
eral in possession of the long end of
1918 score. Bucklin came in strong
tying the score three times-once at
I'LL and 17-17 and Papa. The
greatest margin in the points of the
two teams was at third quarter when
the score was 24-19 1t was won
derful game from start to finish, fast
clean and scientific. Longwell, Bane
and Captain Mahoney displayed their
skill in hitting the basket, and Harm
den and Wehmeir demonstrated the
near impossibility of anyone throw
ing goal when they are around.
Ernest Evans as referee was a most
satisfactory impartial judge. The
students and athletic boosters of the
town are more than pleased with the
victory over Bucklin.

FARMERS, do you ever stop to-
think why cream is selling in Liberal
for &c per pound more than in any
other town along the railroad? Last
year we were serving the farmers at
all the other towns with cream sta
lions; this year we do not plan to
have any stations and want you to
watch the difference in the market in
the other towns and in Liberal.
