55-12

On thursday evening, december
%, Kendrlck met the basket ball
boys of Troy in game in which
the final score was not good in
dication of the worth of the contest.
Both from the standpoint OF the
spectator and that of the player,
the greatest enjoyment was afford
ed during the evening.
Troy High started off with a rush
and ran up seven points before
Kendrick could catch her breath.
The exertion appeared to be fatal
for the visitors. however, tor they
did not tally again until the score
board showed a credit OF thirty,
or some such number of points, for
the Kendrick boys. That finished
the first half of the play.
In the second section. the Troy
players seemed to lose their Idea
of team play and the individual at
tempts for the basket were the Or
der of the evening from that time
to the finish. In all, they scored IL
points, Clarence johnson being the
most consistent point getter for the
visitors.
The Kendrick boys contributions
IN the second half amounted to Is
points and they were not at all
hard-pressed to make that gain.
Their team work was better and the
basket shooting Of Flaig together
with the consistent support uf
Chamberlain was responsible for the
greater number of the Kendrick
tallies.
A comical point Of the game was
the persistent tactics of big guard
on the Troy team. Football should
have been his particular calling,
for, when he was closely guarded
or hard-pressed for time. he invarl-
ably assumed the position of the
cronching football center and pas
sed the ball out between his legs.
The Kendrlck boys soon noticed this
disposition of their opponent and
were usually behind him and in
position to take the bail when he
passed it hack to them.
The result of the game, which was
played in twenty minute halves,
was SIS to IL. McPherron of Troy
and Morrison of kendrlck alter.
mated as referee and umpire in the
two periods.
r? After the game, the Troy players
and the general public were enter.
tained at program and Xmas tree
!; IN the High School auditorium
where, rumor hath it that, a gooc
time. was enjoyed by everyone pres
ent.
Watch for the announcement o1
the next game to be played on the
: local floor. You will be we'll re
