all the things that are being done in
the different departments would re-
quire much space, but the successful
work of one of them exemplifies the
type of results attained. The Social
Center Basketball Team twice last
week came out of the fray victorious.
On Wednesday, it defeated Humboldt

Monday night, it again defeated the
Minneapolis Intermediates by score
of 26 to T.. This game displayed the
corresponding strength of the two
Twin City centers. The Talmud
Torah team started out with rush,
but soon met their Waterloo at the
hands of the Center Boys, and after
the first quarter the final result was
quite evident.
