VISITORS THERE" ON
THROWING BASKETS

Exceptional ability in shooting
baskets from any point on the floor,
made the Cleveland post legion team
of st. Paul. victors by score Of %
to Is in the game Saturday night at
the Armory, when it met the quint
of the Ralph Oracle post of the
American legion for the second clash.
Very evenly matched in teamwork
and floorwork, the game was even
more interesting than that played by
the same teams on Friday night,
when the local boys also met defeat.
The entire Bemidji team played in
better form but met hard luck in
most instances when it seemed evil
dent that a basket would be made.
Several very close shots aroused
great enthusiasm among the spec
!tators, but it literally took the heart
out of the boys when their shots
failed to be successful, since the op-
posing team seemed unable to miss,
especially on the long throws.
Of the visiting team, Ryan and
Falconer showed up prominently,
both in floorwork and in basket
shooting, each scoring several points
for their side. Many personal fouls
were called on the Cleveland fouls
by the referee and nine of Bemidji'x
points were made on fouls thrown,
Bailey Shoots Two.
Two of Bemidji's field baskets
were thrown by Bailey, who played
in better form than the night before.
Both shots were we'll judged and
thrown from quite a distance from
the basket. Plummer played hard
and we'll but met with poor success
in scoring. Berrigan as center was
also in better form in the second
game and played a good, steady game.
Howe and George Graham showed up
we'll, Howe securing the third basket
for the locals. Fred Graham and
Phibbs, who were substituted in the
second half, appeared in better form
than in the first encounter and al
though they fought hard to make the
game a victory for the local boys,
met with hard luck in scoring.
Instead of becoming discouraged
by the two defeats, which they met
in rapid succession at the hands of
the strong Cleveland quint, the local
boys feel as though they had profit
ed greatly by the try-outs which they
have had and are confident that they
have team to be proud of and are
going to show the local fans what
little real practice has done for them,
at their next game which will be
staged soon.
