| SCHOOL NOTES
| Three basketball games were
staged at the Pemberton school
Gymnasium last Friday evening, De-
cember z. The first game was a
short but a scrappy tastle between
the high school Midgets and the
seventh and eighth grades. The
final tally showed score Of seven
to four in favor of the Midgets. The
seventh and eighth grades promise
revenge when they play again and
can muster their full lineup into
the field.
The second game was from all
angles the most interesting and the
most closely matched. This was the
game between the Loyola Tigers OF
Mankato and the Pemberton High
School. The game started off with
a snap and the first basket was
caked of a free throw by Lundeman.
This standing was soon set at odds
by a field basket made by the
Tigers. Close guarding and effective
passing weres the features Of the
game on both sides, Pemberton
| usually appearing a little more sure
OF their work. A number of attempts
To cage by the Pemberton players
resulted disastrously. The first
half ended with the tally of four to
three In Pemberton's favor. The
second half opened up with the. same
fire, some substitutes being put IN
/ played a good game OF guard, stop
holes. The shooting honors were
quite evenly distributed between
/ Oftedahl. Lundeman and Neary of
| Pemberton and Landkamer and
Busch of Mankato. The score ended
seven to six in Pemberton's favor,
on the merits Of a free throw by
! Neary.
