Hard Battle.
The game was ~fiercely contested
throughout and was one of the most
Armory floor. here this season. North
Dakota maintained it's lead at the
opening of. the second period for sew
eral minutes, although the visitors had
taken the offensive and held the ball
in their own territory the greater part
of the time. Haven, Minnesota all

the floor a all times, kept Crookston
from falling behind any farther with
and with eight minutes left to play,
Max Haines tied up the count with an

basket, and North Dakota took the
lead again by two points. z
Weber, forward for the Queen City,
and who had been playing a wonder
full game from the beginning despite
his lack of weight. brought C%rooksson
up ever again with a one-l1anded shot

but a few seconds left to play. the ball
was the visitors out of bounds and
LRaincs, standing %unnoticed under his
own basket received a long pass and
negotiated the last shot.
Starts With Rush.
The game started off with a rush
and with North Dakota passing wild
iy. Their shooting was also wild.
two lon, shots going clear over the
blackboard, and no field goals were
scored by either side until Busdieker
counted after nine minutes OF play.
The main cause OF the defeat can
probably be laid directly to funlblins
on the part of the pink n green
team. IT is something that a North
Dakota. quint has not been criticized
for for some cars. but chance after
chance to shoot was lost by a tumble
land pretty bits Of team work stopped
abruptly because some n of the
varsity dropped the ball.
The old forward com bination that
Davis had had for some time is miss
ed this year and the coach is having
trouble replacing it. Sinclair played
d strong game at guard Saturday eve
ming. and Busdieker was going fairly
we'll at center until he vas injured III
the beginning Of the second period and
had TO retire.
