Were VictOrs

The basketball games between the
boys and girls teams of the Yering-
tion and Douglas high school. played
at the auditorium Saturday night, at
tracted a large crowd and was one OF
the most exciting games played here
this season, made SO by the close score
in the contest between the boys. The
Douglas girls were defeated by the
visiting team by a score of 1929.
while the Douglas boys defenated the
Yerington lads by a score OF 1922.
The girls game was called first
and the game had not gone for when
1t was seen that the star basket
shooter of the Yerington team stood
a fair chance to carry her team to
victory. The Douglas girls battled
hard to overcome the skill of Yering-
tons star player but at the end of the
first half the score stood 8 to 2l in
favor of the visitors. In the second
half the Douglas girls were able to
block the visitors ands kept the ball
out of dangerous territory much Of the
time with the result when the game
ended the score was IL to 80 in favor
of the visitors.
When the boys game started 1t was
evident that the Yerington lads were
determined to duplicate the work OF
the girls and carry home with them
double victory for their school, but
through Stubborn resistance on the
part of the Douglas boys, their designs
were thwarted. At the end of the
first half the score stood 12 to IL
In the second half, Clock. the star
player of the Douglas team, who has
been out Of the games for several
weeks owing to a fractured nose re-
ceived In a game at Carson, took his
place on the team. However, the
Yerington referee did not show any
love for Clock. who retired from the
game because OF seeming prejudices
displayed by the referee. OFT Hansen
took Clocks place and the game pro-
ceeded. First the Yerington team
led by one or two points, then the
Douglas lads would toss a basket and
take the lead A few minutes before
the wistle sounded Douglas got lead
of one point and from that moment
contented themselves in playing de-
fesive game anl were able to prevent
