HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

On last Friday the DenlSOn DdsheI
ball quintet motored to Woodblne Tor
return game with the Harrison
county lads. The game was played in
the high school gymnasium, low
ceilinged, cement foored room whose
only claim to superiority over the di-
minuitive local gmn was larger
playing area.
The Woodbine orchestra. an un-
usually fine high school organization,
gave a number of delightful selections
before the game began.
Woodbine played a faster and more
consistent game than they did a week
ago, Virgins, the enemies clever
little left forward, with eight free
throws and five field tosses, made
eighteen of his teams tWenty.one
Ipoints, while Hagedorn and Gebert
maiored in piling up the Denison to-
ttal. The game ended with the score
board registering 81 for Denison and
|22 for Woodbine. ,cEg .r, ..

The purple and gold basket tossing
experts close this years season by
participating, in the invitation tourna-
ment at Harlan. The Shelby county
metropolis has regular gymnasium.
The basket ball floor is regulation
size, 60 by 80 feet, four times as large
as Denison's. The boys are looklhs
forward expectantly to playing on a
real basket ball floor and though prac-
tice on the small home foor Is un'
doubtedly a serious handicap. they
are counting on bringing home the
bacon.
Girls Defeated by Manning
The Denison girls basket ball
team. for the first time in several
wears met an out of town team when
they played the Manning sextet on
our home floor Friday night, March
21st.
At the end of the first half of hard
PLAYING the score stood Is to 6 in fav-
or of Manning. AS the second half
begun our girls showed themselves to
he a smoothly working machine and
as the rougier guarding was ruled
out our two forwards, Zella Gillmor
and Mary Vollersen started some ex-
lceptionally good team work. %,-Et, !,
Ida Grelck, of Manning, had a Keen
eve for the basket and was we'll guard
ed by Delphine Coan. When Lillian
Koberg came into the game she helped
our girls show that they had really
learned to play the game scientifically.
The final score of 25 to lS, although
in favor of Manning, proved that IN
the second half our girls outplayed
their visitors by the score OF IL to l0,
