when it came to general all arour
hard fast playing there was no ind
vldual who stood out among the oil
ers. Each man played with IL VII
and determination to win and it VIZ
this wonderful team work and enthl
slasm that made it possible for tn
I Newport boys to walk away with tn
honors. Bigelow's eye was never. BET

team.
Taking all things into considera
tlon the game was clean throughout
The boys roughed it up somewha
at times but there was very little in
territorial fouling and Referee San
Hamilton was able to keep the boy
II line with little trouble. A few o
the players received minor bruises.
Shortly after play began in Tho
first period, kennison received a blow
on the nose, as Il result of running
into the window casing. Time wa.
called while Kennison was taken in.
to the dressing room and the BLOOD
stopped. He went back into thu
game.
Basil Hadlock was struck under
the eye accidentally by Morrison, tn.
tall center of the st. Johnsbury team
and today he is wearing Il large sized
bump under his eye.
Emery, the left forward Of the Wis
ting team hurt his face during the
first period and time was called for a
minute while he recovered from tho
liury. vKUR ~"
1t was a peculiar thing that during
the game Bigelow opened the scor-
ing in each period. In the SECOND
period the champion shooter got six
straight baskets. He was loudly
eheered by the spectators and his
lame could be heard from every cor
ler of the hail.
The fireworks commenced just as
Referee Sam Hamilton blew his
Whistle in the opening of the first
'eriod and the going was hot anG

When Referee Hamilton threw the
all in the air kennison knocked it
lean through the basket. 1t was a
ne piece of work although there was
,me luck attached to it. Emery Sc
lred the first basket for the opposing
cam. His work and that of Ian
