no such enormous body Of population
close at hand as at Boston. Probably
the spirit at the bottom Of this sympa-
thy for the visiting team is natural
desire on the part Of the unprecedented
spectators to see the under dog" win,
since Harvard teams are so good they
are always the favor.ses. But another
reason is that the not unusual deter
mination to regard the collegian as a
silk stockinged man" and arrogant.
A decade ago spectators were not as
well posted in the game and, hence,
they were not SO ready to give voice
to their sentiments. More than that,
football crowd was not the kind that
under excitement would throw pop
bottles at the umpire"
In the enormously increased crowds
in the minor games the overflow was
of different class and this had quite
a material effect upon the conduct of
the crowd as well as leading to these
clashes already noted.

Great Falls High Wins
Second Straight Game
From Butte High, 15-5
Visitors Fail to Make Single Field Goal, and
Make All Their Points on
Free Throws

Coach Mike Danahey's Butte five
failed to get revenge for Friday nights
overwhelming beating ut the hands of
the Great Falls high school basketball
quint, and Saturday night bowed again
to a 15 to 8 defeat. The game was
rough and close with neither sides
scoring machine working in well oiled
order. Butte failed to annex single
field goal, making five points on free
throws.
For the first four minutes the teams
battied evenly and the passing was
kept to the center of the floor and
few scattered shots failed to connect
with the hoops. Then Shaw, Great
full length Of the floor and made the
first point of the game unassisted.
This started a rally for the Blue and
White squad and Winner and Gonser
each connected with field goals in the
next few minutes of inlay.
Walsh. Butte guard, received five
chances to score on free throws in
the first period but was able to corral
only two points The Butte squad ex-
hibited fighting spirit but the scoring
machine hit stone wall in Lowry and
Shaw. Great Falls guards, every time
they were able to work the ball within
scoring distance of the Great Falls
basket.
Breaks Up Many Plays
The guarding of Crowley for Butte
was responsible for breaking up many
Blue and White plays that might have
gone for baskets. OConnor. the
battling center and captain of the
Butte five, was forced from the game
on personal fouls near the end Of the
second period.
Coach Danahey sent Brennan in to
relieve Chapman at forward. but still
the Great Falls guards were invincible
and few minutes later Meagher was
sent in to relieve Brennan. Coach
Crouch used the same string during
the first period.
Winner at forward and Charters at
center pulled a juggling act with the
ball on their finger tops that resulted
in the ball tumbling through the basket
for two more points. Winner made
half ended with Great Falls leading,
8 to 2.
Walsh annexed three more points by
free throws in the second half. but
efforts to score by field baskets proved
futile. O'Connor's superior height over
Charters gave Byte the advantage in
getting the tip off. but the crss cross
pass. touted as Butte's asset for pill
ing up points was broken up time after
time by the steady guarding Of Lowry
and Shaw
Winner Takes Center
Early in the second period Coach
Crouch sent Conner in to relieve Char
teris. The lineup was changed at the
same time, Winner going to center
and Conner taking the forward posi-
ton. This combination was not effect
i've as scoring machine, although
many chances were missed when scor-
ing seemed probable. Conner worked
well with Gonser in getting the ball
within scoring distance, but his shots
went wild. Gonser and Winner re-

, peatedly missed chances to score by
free throws. Gonser annexed one
field goal and two free throws in the
second half and Winners field goal
completed the scoring.
Coach Danahey sent Chapman back
into the game to relieve Murphy at
forward and Wagstaff in to relieve
O'Connor when he was retired for four
personal fouls. A few minutes later
he sent Brennan in for Chapman and
Coach Crouch sent Chichester in to
relieve Conner at forward.
The clean, steady guarding of Lowry
made his playing the feature Of the
game. Time after time he broke up
plays that kept Butte from scoring.
Make Strong Guards
Lowry's record for the season is
clean Of fouls and in every game his
guarding has been menace to oppos-
ing teams. With Shaw, the veteran
guard, as his running partner, Great
Falls has an unusually strong defen-
sive team and if Winner and Gonser
were able to combine shooting skill
with their fost floor work and passing
ability the Smelter lads would be in
line for the state championship.
Charters at center, plays fast,
strong game and moves III all the plays,
but his height handicaps him in getting
the tip off for his team mates. AS
the team lines up now it is not sure
fire scoring machine. 1t is unusually
fast, perhaps too fast, for in their
speed the players often lose control of
the ball and toss it into the crowd on
the side lines. 1t is strongly defensive,
however, and as the season progresses
may develop into a championship team.
