Bremen Hi Loses to M. & M.
Another large crowd witnessed
the basket ball game Friday night
in the armOry, in which M. & M.
won from Bremen high school by a
score of 36 to IL.
The strength of the visiting team
was a big surprise to everyone, and
they managed to keep the lead for
some time in the first half. Sturn,
of the visiting team, scored six Of
their twelve points, while White and
Kennard each managed to score six
teen points for NJ & M. The game
was very fast througout and the
speedy play did not relax for a
ter several minutes play, when
Sturn made free throw, but by
very brilliant pass work Jenkins OBJ
tained field goal soon after. Sturn
followed by a pretty bucket from the
side, which again placed Bremen in
the lead. Then by scoring two free
throws and field goal, White made
the score to 3. Norris of the Wis
iting team next made a field goal,
which was soon followed by another
tossed by Siler, putting Bremen in
the lead by a score Of to s. M. &
MS. guarding was tightened and
Bremen was able to score only
more points in the first half, while
our boys tossed fields and foul
goals.
Just as Whites ''basket eye" had
featured the first half, in the second
half Kennard featured with field
baskets. Bremen was held to only
one point in the second half, while
M. & M, playing in perfect form,
scored IA points. Much of the credit
for this victory should go to the
guards Osborne, GOrrell and Nell,
while Jenkins also played q wonder

M. & M. to Play GAINESVILLE
Our basket ball team will journey
to GAINESVILLE Friday to play their
high school team Friday night.
has a strong team and
has only lost two games this season.
However, they are not under esti-
mating M. & MS. strength and real
lze that it will be one of the hardest
fought games of the season. The
players probably will
make the trip: White, ~Kennard,
Jenkins, Nell, Osborne, Gorrell,
and Ross or Tolbert.
In a fast and interesting game
the Senior team of M. & M. went
down to defeat at the hands of the
newly organized faculty team. The
game was hotly contested at all
hn fnC
of the professors. The
Seniors put up hard fight but were
unable to keep the pace, set by
their opponents and were left at the
short end of a 25-12 score. Fulks
and Wells were the twinklers for
the instructors, handling most of
their teams scoring and displaying
some real class. Their basket shoot
ing featured the game. In addition
to tossing in several buckets. Fulks
showed excellent floor work. Nc
Call and Cramblett performed the
best for the losers. Another game
has been scheduled between these
teams, in which the Seniors expect
to return this defeat. This game
will be played Thursday afternoon
(today) Mr..
Only Three-Letter Man i'm NJ. & Nj.
Lee Nell (Dutch) has the signal
honor of being the only three-letter
man in school. He has won an IN"
in basket ball, baseball, and in the
track meet Nell won first in pole
vault, relay, and hammer throw. On
the basket ball team he plays right
guard, and guards" He is captain
of the base ball team, and on the dia-
mond is our trustworthy catcher.
In several games he has been injur-
ed, but has come back with grit. He
started playing basket ball in his
year which indicates con-
ability.
White is our two-letter man. He
has won his I'M" in basket ball and
base ball. He is our right forward
in basket ball, and our third base
man on the diamond. White also
commenced playing as a Freshman.
The Senior class is justly proud
in having Dutch and Babe as men,
bers; their graduation will deprive
NJ. e M. of two good players.
Clifford Osborne is the only men,
ber Of the Freshman class on our
team, and shows signs of being a
leading player.
The career of Nell and White
should inspire all who strive after
honors. Needless to say
their place was won by grit and
"perspiration." Hid.
