The Kansas City sun. (Kansas City, Mo.) 1908-1924, 1920-03-06

Of the afternoon. She is acting Cap.
though she has never played basket
ball before this season she handled
herself and the team in a way which
would have been very creditable to
a seasoned player. The fact that
Miss Washington stands about 4 feet
s inches in height added to her at
t~ractivehess. The ease with which
she scored from the free throw line
drew the applause of the crowd. Out
of ten attempts she succeeded in
dropping eight through the net.
Miss Amanda Estes was easily the
star for Western, she having been re-
sponsible for six of her teams nine
points, on geld goals. Miss Estes
height gives her considerable advan-
tage as a forward due to the girls
rules concerning guarding. Miss Es-
ties is an exceptionally good forward
and will cause her opponents in the
league considerable worry before the
season is over.
While all of the players on both
teams played a good game special
mention should be made of Miss Hat
tie Lunsford of the Topeka team who
held her opponent scoreless without
committing a single foul during the
entire game.
