New Hampshire the visitors held q
continued threat, as was H. Fern
aid, the rangy right guard. These
two men seemed lnWncible. They
were every where in the play and
when they took a shot at the big
loop it was a safe bet that there
was another point for the col
iegians. l.. Fernald and futile also
came in for their share OF the hon
ors by the great passing game they
exhibited.
The passing of both teams was
above par, and the guarding air
that would fall inside the loop
side got the big sphere, his pos
session was sure 70 be disputed by
an opponent, and the energy that
both sides displayed made the con-
test doubly exciting.
The Company d lads seemed to
have difficulty IN passing the
meshcs. Several times Conner and
Dumas made spectacular heaves
that would fall insides the loop,
roll tantaljzingly about and then
azily hop out into the hand OF
some ready warrior.
No less exciting was the contest
between st. Johnsbuly academy
and the alumni Of that institution
the former winning by score of
81 to II. The academy lads had
bit the better of the contest be-
cause of their intensive training,
but the alumni in spite of the fact
that many of them had not played
a game since their graduation, put
up a contest that kept a look Of
worry on the faces of the students.
Pike was easily the star Of the
academy lads, although he con-
fined his playing entirely to him
self. The work Of Dickinson,
Shields, and Scruton was also out
standing in its quality.
FOR the Alumni the work Of
Moore, McLane ana Pike was of
a stellar quality, but the latter lad
was disqualified at the end of the
first period on personal fouls
FIRST PERIOD
The first period opened with
Company D leading off in mat
ter of fact way which soon turned
to a whirlwind fight as the visit
ors jumped into the breach with
wildcat abandon. New Hampshire
got the ball and in a great exhlbi-
ton of passing put the ball into
local territory. Goslant dove head
first into the melee and emerged
with the pill, which he shot to
Conner. Puss snapped to Fisk who
was at once surrounded by mob
of the enemy. Right here Lucky"
showed the stuff that makes bas-
ketball and lodging and clrcling
he made beautiful one handed
throw that settled through the
meshes for the first score of the
game. A moment later he repeated
the performance on a pass from
Dumas.
New Hampshire right here took
a squirt that made the fans anx-
ious. Metcalf gripped the lemon on
pass from H. Fernald and going
the length of the court made a one
handed Offering that set the crowd
wild. Followed an exhibition of.
passing and juggling the ball be-
tween Goslant and Conner that
kept New Hampshire doing the toe
dance. Dumas fouied Burr twice,
but he failed to register in either
case. Connor was fouled by H.
Fernald. He shot the pill entering
the bed for a seemingly sure shot
but after cavorting about for the
space of minute it rolled out into
the hands of the ever ready Burns.
Burns and Dumas were fouled
for pushing and New Hampshire
tailed the points. The period end
ed Company d, 8 New Hampshire
7.
