Second Bnptists Win.

The second game was unlike the
nrst, with the exception that the
teams were little more on a par ana
the interest on both teams was at a
high spirit. IL was a contest OF the
intercollegiate type. Second Baptist
who has been defeated by the young
sters from st. Paul's every time tho
two teams have mot. was out to come
back and got away TO good start
and held tho lead well into the frs,
period, but the two Fosters were a
little peeved at this and It was not
Ions until Deakyne's boys were n thing
OF the past.
Les. Deakyne and Ewing were the
only men who could get under the
basket long enough to take a shot.
Cole for the ST. Pauls crowd did some
fine work from the floor and on the
floor taking the ball all around the
Second Baptist boys. He was excep-
uonally good from the penalty line,
He shot six out OF a ,possibe nine.
In the second half the Baptists came
hack strong and outplayed st. Pauls
from every angle OF the floor, allow
ing them TO get but one field goal.
Deakyne and Ewing were the MAIN
stays for the Baptists, having little
or no trouble breaking through ST.
Paurs line OF "scrimmage." While
the ST. Paul's boys had to go home
defeated and drop into third place
they played a hard game and deserv-
ed 10 win. The score:
