ANDERSON KICKS
IS CALLED TO-DAY

In reporting the account Of the
Abbeville basketball games with
his school in Anderson Friday, "the
"school correspondent" of the And
erson Tribune has the following tc
say Of the games:
Gin the two games played yester'
day with Abbeville the Anderson
"Hi," girls won their game but the
boys were defeated. The girls
winning score was 50-3 and the
boys fatal score was 1911. The
girls of eli" carried the game en-
tirely for three quarters and in the
last quarter Abbeville scored three
points, throwing one straight goal
and one foul.
Follows are the girls line-ups:
Anderson-5O Martha Miller Hol-
Ter, (42) Mildred Hatcher, (s)
forwards. Delmar Bales running
center, Matte Lee Mitchell, jump
ing center, Mary Welborn guard,
Georgia Power, guard.
Abbeville-3 McCuen % Owens
(2) towards. Edwards running cen
ter, Wilson jumping center, Chalm-
ers guard, Barksdale guard. Robert
! Bowen referee.
The following substitutes were
made in the last half:-Myrtle
Brown for Delmar Bales, Mary
Nance for Mary. Welborn.
The boys game was somewhat of
a two sided affair. The boys Of
Hi" would have won the game yes
terday afternoon but an Abbeville
man was referee and the boys of
eli" were licked in the manner
that, they were in a football game
at AbbevilIe last season and every
sporting fan in Anderson that at
tended that game knows that the
Anderson boys had to play the
referee as we'll as the team. The
boys were beaten last year in a
football game by a mere point,
(20-21). An Anderson boy made a
touchdown but the referee ruled
it a "dead" ball.
Just as an Anderson boy would
threaten to throw a goal yesterday
in that basketball game, the referee
usually noticed a foul for some un-
known reason and let the Abbeville
team throw the foul goal.
Follows are the boys line-ups:-
Anderson-11 Madison, (2) Mar
shall, ~ forwards. Johnson, (s)
center, McLeskey guard.
AHbeyille-15 Galloway, (5)
Barnes, (6) forwards. Roach, (5)
center Harris, guard, Long, guard.
No other games r scheduled at
resent, but it is expected that
there will be n for the, latter
part of next week. (School Cores

Upon being shown this article
this morning Supt. Fulp of the Abb
beville school expressed surprise
that Anderson should be kicking
again on their defeat at the hands
of Abbeville High especially when
the Anderson team urged Mr.. Haf-
ner, coach of the Abbeville teams,
to referee the games stating that
they had no available referee from
their city. Everybody who knows
Mr.. Hafner, knows that he would
never be guilty of unfair decisions
any more than Red Mcmillan was
guilty last fall of unfair decisions
to visiting football teams here. If
anything either of these two gentle
men would lean toward the oppo-
site side in their endeavors to keep
down suspicion, however ground
less, that might arise from a pre-
JUDGED group of fans.
Supt. Fulp after reading the ar
ticle relating to the basketball
games stated that Abbeville had
suffered the last insult they would
take from such reports and sent the
following telegram 10 MI. Hanna,
principal of the Anderson high
school, which schools teams are
scheduled to play in Abbeville to-
morrow:
