"BEST GAME" STAGED
In AGRICULTURAL GYM
Graceville Wins From Opponents in
Close Game, With Score of 81
to 80

In fiercely contested game on the
Agricultural School gym floor last
Thursday night, Graceville in a very
lucky games merged one-point win
ner over the Aggies. The final score
was 31-3O. 1t was by all odds, the
best game ever played on the Agri-
cultural School floor.
Playing against a veteran high
school team, one that has tasted only
one defeat this season and a contest
ant for the state championship, the
local team looked doomed for sure
defeat, if not a severe drubbing. 1t
looked doubly sure at the end of the
Ee4arst half, with the Aggies on the
short end of a 20-1O score. And this
after they had apparently been play
ing their limit.
Coming back in whirlwind style in
the second half, the locals showed
their fighting spirit by dropping in
three baskets in quick succession and
putting themselves in a position to
win, and from this time on, play after
play was carried out successfully and
with definite precision, against sea-
soned team, that seemed unable at
this stage of the game, to stop the
machine like rushes of Eastman &
Company. Scoring 20 points to
Graceville's 10 is evidence enough as
to how the game progressed the Sec
ond half.
Captain Eastman, though guarded
closely, perhaps played the best game
of his career, scoring 16 points for
his team with 8 field goals, 3 being
of the sensational variety from diff
cult angles and long shots.
Syverson, his running mate, played
a whale of a game, and was stone
wall on defense. But his basket
shooting was off color and three was
his limit.
Johnny Steen at center was GER
tainly there with the goods, and it
was seldom that the ball was not
started in the right direction after
each tip off. He was tower Of

Department OF Agriculture, which
has annouaced the result of study

figures show:
That comparatively few of the fasss-
mers i'm the groups studied have been
making large profits in the recent
years OF comparatively high prices.
That their average return ON invest
ment increased from about per
cent in 1910 to- per cent in, 1918.
