snappy yells as the meeting closed.
Friday evening the Wausau team
was defeated by Rhinelander in a
fast and close game of basket ball at
Rhinelander by score of 1t-S. Rhine
lander started out fast and got the
jump on the Wausau boys before they
realized it. Consequently three field
baskets and free throw We're se ed
before the Wausau players made a
point. After this Wausau woke up
and outplayed Rhinelander but could
not overcome the big lead sufficient
ly to Win Wausau played the five
man defense and their guarding was
very effective, holding BONN, Rhine
lander's star 70 only one field has
ket. The Wausau offensive work vas
good after they got started but they
started too late. Allen was a marked
man throughout the game and al
though he broke loose from his guard
"a basket. nickert and I.aabs each
made three baskets and Slocum made
the other one for Wausau Thi game
was the first played between the two
