Now Comes Basketball

With the football season almost
ended for this year, the sport loving,
world in general and Morris in par
ticular turns to perhaps the greatest
of indoor sports, basket ball. With
the game opened UP by the larger
and better floors, little If any rough
work, the game has attained popu-
larity never thought Of 25 years ago
when 1t was in it's infancy.
The question occupying the minds
of several youths of the city and
older ones as well, is whether the
city of Morris Is to have an inde-
pendent team and IL so, when. There
are probably q dozen or more fellows
around town who wish to keep in
trim during the long winter and who
would welcome the chance to kan
garoo over the wooden floors with
refreshing shower bath afterwards.
Only a partial list > of. candidates
would be possible at this time, but
the good work must be started soon.

line bucks. 1t was an old fashioned
fake line smash with run around
end that spilled the beans and al
lowed Benson to run about twenty
five yards for the first touchdown.
Others came in the last half, when
the Morris team was tired and their
inexperienced players had lost con-
f1dence. ...
, The crack back field for the Aggies
and secondary line of defense were
not even in suits, Capt. Rolen, Chri-
stephenson, Sheggby and Siverson
were out and also Green at left end.
The game was not without it's
bright spots for the Morris team.
In the last quarter, the Aggies be-
gan a determined offense and moved
rapidly into enemy territory until
Larson after a clever run of some
twenty yards stepped into a hole
fifteen yards from the enemy's goal
line and fell headlong and fumbled
the ball which Benson retrieved to
possess until the end of the game.
Pierce, Bennett and Heine put up
magnificent games for the defeated
team and all would have done much
better if the condition of the field
had been better.
