SCOUT TEAM
SMEARS SUPERIOR
Runs Away With Heavier OPP,
p0nents in Second Half.

/ !
Last Friday night the Scouts raj
into the toughest job they hav,
struck so far this year, when they
tackled one of the teams from the
Superior Y. M. C. A, During tn,
first half, it looked as if they had
met their match, as the score see
sawed back and forth, and at hall
time it stock 10 to 8, in favor o1
Superior. In the second half, how.
ever, the Wsashburn boys got their
passing game oiled up, and swept
their opponents of their feet, scor-
ing "a points to SQeerior's II, and
making the final score 3S to 81.
The game was fast throughout,
and, it must be admitted, pretty
rough most of the time. The Nc
Farlin Kenaa- Mod dugall COM
bination, coached by McKinnon eyi,
deity got their Scotch up, and started
in to push the local boys into the
bay. McFarlin, in fact, did little
too much pushing, holding, and
other forms of affection, and was re-
tired from circulation with four per-
sonal fouls adorning his bulky frame
before the first half was finished.
He was soon followed TO the side
lines by Morgan, his opponent, who
again had difficulty in restraining his
enthusiasm, and was paught holding
four times, and chased to the show
ers. McKenna, of the visitors, al
so accumulated three personal fouls
in the first half and the fourth was
called on him with 8 minutes still to
play in the second half. There was
no sub left to put in in his place,
however, and the score-keeper kept
the dope under his hat, although the
rules specify that in such case,
the team is obliged to finish the
game with men. At that rate,
Superior cant have much to say about
their treatment from the officials.
Alton was in the Scout lineup for
the first time since Dec. %, he hav-
ing been sick in bed for three weeks
back. He showed tho effects of his
absence by the way Ne handled the
ball in the first hall; - after the in
termission he got his feet under him,
and although pretty well tagged out,
he held up his end, and then some,
his clever passing to Haglund be-
ing responsible for several scores.
The one thing that put the most
heart into the couts, and brought
cheer from the house, was the ap-
pearance of Cease at his old place
at right guard. He was hurt in a
foot ball game last fall ,and was or
dered by the doctor to keep out of
basketball; but the night before the
game the ban WIS removed, and there
was no holding him. One hour on
the previous night is all the prac-
tice he has had this year, but he went
in like house afire at the beginning
of the second half, and although he
had about half an acre of armour
plate strapped onto his side, he tore
in at his ol-time speed, stopped every
thing that came his way, and even
got sassy enough to drop in one of
his copyrighted bulbs eyes from the
x~o;lJ Jlo of kho A0of
Haglund attended to the marks
manship, as he sometimes does, and
Sheridan, who went in at center after
Morgan's banishment, played a
peach of game. If this boy keeps
improving at his present rate, it's
going to be hard to keep him out of
the regular lineup. Shoresman,
who was pretty fidgety in the first
half, steadied down when Cease
ranged along beside him, and was
hard to pass from then on.
