LOCAL HOOTERS DRU B SOLDIERS
 IN FAST GAME
City Team Defeats Fort Sew ard Squad by One Sided
 Score of 38 to II.

Showing the same speedy game that has characterized it's appearance throughout the earlier part of the season, the City basketball team last night administered drubbing to the soldier squad from Fort Seward, win ming by score of 3S to II, The To- cal hoopers showed better teamwork, were better shots and bv a superior passing game set a pace by which they were at no time in danger
 The Soldiers. although outplayed, were not outgamed. Despite the fact that they were never within striking distance of the local team. they battled gamely until the final whistle and played clean game. Their passing was not of the best and their caging uncertain at all times. Occasionally the. Soldiers showed flashes of real basketball only to have it broken up by the speedier play of the local squad.
 How They Scored
 Hughes, at center, came through with his customary form and was one of the leading point-getters for Captain Burford tied him up with olA UaSholo duu tWO rlOuS odDlll came through with four goals, Hen drickson putting one through the hoop, making a total of IS goals Burford accounted for the two addi- tional points by caging two fouls.
 AndruskwicZ, center for the Sol ders, lead his teammates in scoring, getting two goals and caging three fouls, for seven points. Ward, left forward, was the only other Soldier to count, making two goals. Both of Andruskwicz's goals were thrown from difficult angles and at a good distance, the last one bringing him generous round of applause. Wards final counter was also of the kind that brings applause, which was giv- en him heartily
 McCloskey Shows Class
 McCloskey, at right guard for the City, was against the speediest man on the Soldier team, one Maxwell, who was counted on to be a consist ent point-getter by the visitors. Me Closkey was too much for him. how ever. and Maxwell never got away. Hendrickson and Manning. who. re- placed him for a short time in the second period, both played good game. Manager Sabin, who entered the game with cut over one eye. showed the class which has charac- terized his playing in other games here.
 In the first period, the City made

a race out of the game, piling up 23 points while the Soldiers were chalk ing up five. In the second period the Soldiers changed both guards resulting in considerable improve ment to the team. Despite the change the City was still too strong and scored 15 points while their oppon. ents could put over but six.
 Tom McDonald's work as referee was satisfactory both to the teams and to the spectators. The game was singularly free from fouls, a few being called on both sides for run ming with the ball and for holding.
 The balconies at A. B. Hall were well filled with fans From the turn out last night, it is apparent that the sport will prove to be very popular and draw capacity houses throughout the season to greet the out-oftown lives being brought here in the fu ture.
